Hi all,
I'm trying to copy a file from my PHP server to another server (a home
gateway, called a LiveBox). I've used this code :
$livebox = "192.168.1.1";
...
...
...
$crontab_livebox = "http://".$livebox."/cgi-bin/newCrontab";
if (!copy($crontab_temp_name, $crontab_livebox)) {
echo "<br />Impossible to copy the temp crontab file to the Livebox.<br
/>";
}
I get the following error :
"HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections"
OK can I solve this. Can't I use URLs with the "copy" function if they don't
point to my PHP server (local URLs) ? How can I copy a file from my PHP
server to another server (there's no FTP server on the destination machine)
?
Thanks,
Laurent Vanstaen

Put it this way:
If what you typed above *DID* work, what's to stop *ME* from copying
whatever I want onto your server?...
You probably need to use cURL to login to your livebox, and then POST
the data into the newCrontab form handler.
The basic idea is to use cURL to "fake out" the LiveBox into thinking
that it's really you sitting there typing things.
So you would want to have your browser open and go through the process
"by hand" while you code your cURL script, and look at "View Source"
in your browser for the LiveBox login, and what the cURL script gets,
and then you POST the username/password to mimic a login, and then you
will get back some Cookies, most likely, and then you should be able
to send back those cookies and your new crontab into the form --
Essentially walking your PHP script through the exact same steps you
would take to do it by hand.

That is so much bull, how then can it work for NON .php files?
I know for a fact that CGI does not prevent you using .htaccess or the
ErrorDocument directive in apache because Im using one myself right now
in CGI mode and it works just fine, does your webhost use a custom error
page that advertises its own services or provides a link to their
website by any chance?

Well, laboring under the assumption that everything they tell me is
bull, I looked the other way and found a solution. Thanks also to
Barry for this:

In .htaccess, I replaced
ErrorDocument 404 /not_found.php
with
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule (.*) /not_found.php
and it seems to be working.
Many, many thanks to you both. I should have started here - it would
have saved me about two weeks. No lie.
Peace,

Perhaps his host has somehow managed to force PHP CGI to kick in
*BEFORE* the ErrorDocument of Apache...
Now, I got no idea how they would manage to do that, but it seems like
a reasonable assumption...
WILD GUESS:
If they do PHP CGI with EngineRewrite, and if that takes effect before
the ErrorDocument handler, as I suspect it would, then it would
explain this behaviour, and their response, without the sinister
implications James suggests.
They may even be laboring under the impression that that's the only
way to make PHP CGI work.
More likely, they think it's the best way to make it work for them and
their customers.
I'm not aware of any kind of 404 settings avaiable in php.ini, but
perhaps they just assumed it could be done in php.ini to handle
non-existent files in some way.
From the phpinfo URL provided by the OP, it looks like they are giving
him PHP CGI with his own php.ini file to tinker with, which could be
quite handy, compared to some shard hosting environments I've suffered
through...
What's that old saying?
Never assign to malice what can be explained by sheer stupidity.
Something like that.
I've come to realize, as I get older, that what we often perceive as
some sort of diabolical plot to foil us, is just some other poor guy
doing the best they can with what they've got, and our failure to
appreciate what it is they are offering/doing and why.
Jeez, now I feel like I gotta go watch Karate Kid or something...

Well, last week or so I noticed that Squirrelmail's session array contained
recursive variable references and caused my serializer to crash on infinite
recursion. Oh well, that's life.
I found the time to add a variable stack for encoding to XML. If a variable
is "is_ref" or has a "refcount" greater than 1, the variable stack is
searched for a previous occurrence. If the variable has not been seen
previously, it is push onto the stack. If it has, only a reference ID of
the previous variable is saved in the xml stream.
is_ref and refcount are now added as attributes in the XML stream.
Anyone want to lend a hand and test the serializer?

Agreed. But there have been a few times when I accidently added in an

Depending on what you're doing it might be as easy as:
http://user:passhost/path?query=string
If all you need to do is suck down a page that would do it. If your
POSTING check the HTTP RFC for what headers to send...

I think www-authenticate is what the server sends to the browser, not
the other way around.
I'm guessing that since it's called PHP_AUTH_USER and PHP_AUTH_PW in
PHP, that you would need to send:
GET / HTTP/1.0
AUTH_USER: $username
PATH_PW: $password
Host: example.com
You may also want to look into:

You may want to try this HTTP client class. It comes with HTTP
authentication support using the SASL library package. The example
test_http.php has some comments to let you know how to configure the
authetication support:

Hi,
I have a strange problem while trying to run php based applications.
Lets start with phpMyAdmin, a very popular open source tool to manage
MySQL written in php.
I have already installed phpMyAdmin and was running fine.
One day suddenly when I pointed my browser at :
http://localhost/phpMyAdmin
Instead of running the phpMyAdmin browser opened a message window with
options-
"Open With" or "Save to disk" .
I am sure its not browser problem because I tried on Firefox-1.5,
Mozilla, Epiphany and Konqueror.
One more point I would like to add here that if I write one small php
program and
save it in as php file (test.php) then
http://localhost/test.php
executes properly
I am using Fedora 2 and apache2, php-4.3x and mysql-3.x were part of the
Fedora installation.
The only change I made in the /etc/php.ini file was to increase the
memory limit from 8MB to 12MB.
(Then restarted the http server)
Now even php.ini file is in the original state but problem is still there.
The http.conf file is unchanged.
Can any one give me some sort of idea.
Thanks,
Sanjay

My first WILD GUESS is that way long time ago, you changed httpd.conf
and/or php.ini, but forgot to re-start Apache, and then tested, and
everything worked, so you went on.
Now, when you HAVE re-started Apache, your "fix" from ages ago is
finally kicking in, and you have no recollection of that change.
If you have log files or notes of changes made previously, especially
to httpd.conf, php.ini, or .htaccess, review them -- Keep in mind that
what you are calling your "original" httpd.conf and php.ini file are,
in fact, the ones you modified oh so long ago.
Another tack you can take is to go ahead and save what the browser is
sending you and look at it and see what it looks like.
PHP Source?
Or something else?
Also use telnet or curl (from another box) or similar to get the
headers and HTML that is coming out from the broken pages.

I ran into this a while ago. My hosting company did some "updates" and messed
up the httpd.conf file. I eventually tracked it down to the php directives
being a bit mangled. Make sure that Apache is loading the PHP module, and
that you are telling apache how to handle php files.
Since you have apache2, check the /etc/httpd/conf.d/php.conf file to make sure
that LoadModule, AddHandler, AddType, and DirectoryIndex are all in there.

The AS400 was discussed on this list, or possible on the predecessor
list which was just phplists.php.net back in the day when there was
only one PHP mailing list (not counting internal developer lists).
As I recall, a straight ODBC connection was not quite enough, and some
Voodoo had to be performed to get it to work, but it was possible.
I also vaguely recall that the AS400 ended up being READ-ONLY, at
least under one variant of that voodoo...
But this is going WAAAAAAY back in time, so you'll need to search the
archives to confirm.
But, for sure, some developers have faced and at least partially
solved this at some time in the past, so it's worth digging for it.

Talking from a Windows point of view, you will need the AS400 Client Access
software (or similar - I think it has a new name now!) installed on the
machine you are trying to connect from.
Once this is done, you need to set up a data source in ODBC - System DSN
works best, then use the standard ODBC calls within PHP to access the
database.
If you need further detail, I should be able to help you once I get to work
in about 8 hours!

From my experience, when the ODBC driver (for windows at least) is
installed, it defaults to read-only.
From memory, this can be changed simply by ticking a check box to allow
writes.

I am retrieving records from a MySQL database and need to just display each

25 records per page though, and am wondering if there is a way to handle
this easily within PHP? I'd like to use something like NEXT and PREVIOUS as

You could always use the LIMIT functionality in MySQL
SELECT * FROM table LIMIT 0,25
Then just pass the variables for the limit to start at and how many you want
returned in your query.
SELECT * FROM table LIMIT $start,$num_returned
So looking at records 26 through 50 your links would look like below.
<a href="file.php?start=51&num_returned=25">Next</a> |
<a href="file.php?start=0&num_returned=25">Previous
Just make sure you check your variables so they are numbers to avoid any
kind of SQL injection.

Because your question is so specific, you probably should check in a
phpBB forum, or even one specfically for gf-portail...
PS
The English word you are using "mad" should probably be "crazy" to
avoid confusion for American readers... "mad" == "angry"
Though I suspect the Brits would disagree with me on that. :-)

To keep in theme with the hack-o-rama, even though I think it's a
lousy way to do this...
$str = substr($str, 1, -1); //chop off lead/end square brackets
$layers = explode('][', $str);
$str_array = array();
$layers = array_reverse($layers);
foreach($layers as $layer){
$str_array[] = $layer;
$str_array = array($str_array);
//or something like that...
}

I think you mean this one:
http://php.net/eval
:-)
Though the other suggestion might be more suitable to what you are doing:
http://php.net/create_function
You may want to post the Big Picture of what you are doing and how you
got that string in the first place, because 99 times out of 100, when
people use eval, there's an easier way to do it.

While Variable Variables solve the original question, as asked, I
suspect you'd be better off using:
... NAME="camp_pro[<?php echo $sid_pro?>]" ...
in your radio buttons.
HTML and browsers will treat the radio buttons as "the same" if the
camp_pro part matches, and you'll have $sid_pro
I confess the formatting left me a bit confused as to which variable
you want where, but I suspect resorting to Variable Variables is not
needed at all.

You need to change the last line there.
$mySimpleClass = new SimpleClass();
There's no '$'

If I'm reading this right, this sounds like more of a webserver issue. If
you're using Apache, then you could probably put in a <Directory> directive
to lock it down to his IP (if he is static). You could also put the
user/pass authentication in there.

UGH!!!!
After a WEEK of wasted time, I finally tracked this down.
If you have a __destructor() on a class object that you're saving in a
$_SESSION, then that object will have all it's values NULL'd out when you
call session_start() and retrieve it.
http://www.php.net/session-set-save-handler
"Write and Close handlers are called AFTER destructing objects since PHP
5.0.5. Thus destructors can use sessions but session handler can't use
objects. In prior versions, they were called in the opposite order. It is
possible to call session_write_close() from the destructor to solve this
chicken and egg problem. "
Why wouldn't you save the session values out BEFORE destroying them? Why
should the programmer be burdened with this crap? It worked just fine in
prior versions and now it's broken in my opinion.
So you have to do something like this now:
function __destruct()
{
session_write_close();
foreach($this as $key => $value)
unset($this->$key);
}
