Hi Sven,

I have tried to put the my login username in that place. But it showed
"Invalid Credental". Since I am new to this AD and LDAP, would it be the
format of my username? Should I just put my login username, or should I put
the whole bunch of line such as "CN=my name, DN=xxxx" something like this? I
really confuse the login format of this and so does "objectClass" stuff for
filter. Could you give me an idea? Do you know any web site that talk about
this ? Thank you very much!

hi.

in the php manual
the entry for imap_search states it has 3 arguments

"imap_search ( resource imap_stream, string criteria, int options)"

i get the first 2, but whats the third.

at the end of the page it says
"Valid values for flags are SE_UID, which causes the returned array to
contain UIDs instead of messages sequence numbers. "

so should
imap_search ( $myStream, "ALL", SE_UID);

return an array of the UIDs of the emails?

because this is what i want.
i need to work with the UIDs not the mesage numbers

cheers folks

I've seen survey tools before to build surveys
dynamically with PHP code, but I'm looking for
something a bit more simple that just allows you to
build HTML forms dynamically.

Something where I say I need 10 fields, some
checkboxes, a submit button and it then generates the
form on the fly.

Then that form could be submitted to a database, or
direct to email, etc.

Is there something like this built already in
PHP/Javascript?

Hi!

    To make the long story short, we use IIS 5.0 with PHP 4.0.6 for a while.
Then we builted a new database server, SQL-2000 and point the website to the
new server. Then we notice the problem with the CGI error. So, we last
week downloaded the PHP 4.3.3 and update the IIS with the newer PHP version
and set the cgi.force_redirect to zero in php.ini. See example below
--snip--
; cgi.force_redirect is necessary to provide security running PHP as a CGI
under
; most web servers. Left undefined, PHP turns this on by default. You can
; turn it off here AT YOUR OWN RISK
; **You CAN safely turn this off for IIS, in fact, you MUST.**
cgi.force_redirect = 0
--snip--

We still have problem with CGI error. The use of php function, header() is
what cause the error. Yes, the IIS and the website are reading the php.ini
correctly. I checked that out and it is verified.

So, what is the workaround to the CGI error??

Thanks,

Hello Aracena,

To answer your question: Yes, this is doable in PHP/MySQL but you need
to make the maps, database and functions by yourself.

However, I have not yet found any "all-ready-made" solution (without
paying huge $$$). If you will find solution, please inform us if
possible - even if you only find a algorithm.

Regards,
Sumarlidi Einar Dadason

Hi all,

I'm developing a new site where the visitors, among other things, will
be able to see a map of my country, choose a region then a city, in
order to see a complete map of that place. Another good thing would be
to let the user set the starting and destination points of a trip and
show him or her wich would be the best route to take, gas stations,
hotels, etc.

My question is: Is this possible using PHP and MySQL or do I need to use
also some other tool like Java or other?

Thanks in advanced,

yeah. the thing is. its a bit of a fudge.
we dont have our own news server. were just on a Ł150 pre year hosting
service
its somthing we want to do so the workaround is

you have one catch-all e-mail address
then your mail system lives within this.
so a user logs in to your e-mail frontend. not the actuall mail server.
then every user 'actualy logs in with the same username and pass but they
dont get to see that.
then the php filters only the emails addressed to them.

The PHP site (under Servers-Apache 2.0) says "Do not use Apache 2.0 and PHP in a production environment neither on Unix nor on Windows" but isn't clear whether Linux is included or whether it applies to all Apache 2 releases (such as 2.0.46) or just the original 2.0.
 
And, Red Hat 9 comes with 2.0 so it's really confusing. Has anyone had any experience with this combo?

Hi,
Not on RH 9. But on gentoo I use apache 2.0, it not for production nor
development.

Lots of problems,

Perhaps RH solve someting using own patch, and I repead if you gonna build
production server. Stay away Apache 2.0

Basicly, when you ecounter a problem, then ask question here,
first response

Use Apache 1.3.27 or someting like that.

Good luck

Well, that's a clumsily-worded sentence all around (I would guess from a non-native English user!). I assume the writer was trying to emphasize that he meant not to use it "on any platform", but really "Do not use Apache 2.0 and PHP in a production environment" just about says it all without the embellishment.

Yes, it is. (And MacOS X!)

> or whether it applies to all Apache 2 releases (such

2.0 can usually be taken to mean 2.0.x, and it can in this instance, too.

HTH

When someone says UNIX, they're generally including Linux and BSD, as
both are UNIX clones. At this point anyone in their right mind is going
to suggest you stick with Apache 1.3.x.

Folks,

I'm just getting ready to built a webserver this weekend and was planning on using RH9, so this thread especially caught my eye. The website that the server will be hosting is pretty simple, some basic DB queries, no special Apache modules. Is Apache 2.0 still not a good choice for something simple?

If I really should use Apache 1.3, then which route would be easier...

1. Install RH9, remove Apache 2.0 and manually install Apache 1.3 (from tarball). The only problem with this is that I will no longer be able to use the Red Hat Network's "up2date" tool to download and apply patches (from what I understand). Up2date is a huge time saver for me.

2. Install RH7.3, and manually install the latest version of PHP (I simply can't use the version that comes with RH7.3). Of course then I still have the older version of MySQL, and everything else.

Comments?

 I'm current;y in the process of setting up a new web server myself. The
obvious choice for me was to use Red Hat 7.3 for the install. On a clean
install all the nice options are already present, (ssl, php, mysql, gd
lib) which is much better thatn what we used to run, Red Hat 5.2! Been
running that for the past 4 years on that dinosaur.

I am also building a new server. I am going with RedHat 8, but only
installing the Classic server from the CDs. Then installing/configuring
Apache/PHP/MySQL/SSL manually. I like the rpm install programs but I like to
be able to add modules in the future and I find it easier the configure it
all by hand.

I also use the up2date, but only for the basic server part, not the
webserver part. I will reconfigure my web server is a new version or patch
comes out.

I am doing to use Apache 1.3.27, because I too have read all the warnings
about 2.X and PHP, it does not look stable. Maybe with PHP 5 it will be
stable.

I went with Redhat 8 over 9 because I have also read about a lot of bugs
with redhat 9.

I usually don't like to use the new of anything until it have been out for
sometime and I don't see any see bug reports.

Just my two cent.

Folks,

I'm just getting ready to built a webserver this weekend and was planning on
using RH9, so this thread especially caught my eye. The website that the
server will be hosting is pretty simple, some basic DB queries, no special
Apache modules. Is Apache 2.0 still not a good choice for something simple?

If I really should use Apache 1.3, then which route would be easier...

1. Install RH9, remove Apache 2.0 and manually install Apache 1.3 (from
tarball). The only problem with this is that I will no longer be able to use
the Red Hat Network's "up2date" tool to download and apply patches (from
what I understand). Up2date is a huge time saver for me.

2. Install RH7.3, and manually install the latest version of PHP (I simply
can't use the version that comes with RH7.3). Of course then I still have
the older version of MySQL, and everything else.

Comments?

 Does anyone remember the warning concerning MySQL and glibc. I distinctly
remember some conflict between the two and up2date installing a bad
mismatch lib making MySQL act funny. It's one of the reasons I'll stick
with Red Hat 7.3 but I my conclusions about the situation may be clouded
because of this.

And just when would this rare event occur, if ever?

Every version of Apache, PHP, or Linux distro ever released has had bugs or
exploits of some form. If you're waiting for a perfect version of any of
those, it'll still be a long while.

The best thing to do is just pick a distro that releases patches quickly, and
keep up to date on patches.

Linux is quite new for me, so please forgive me if my questions are
rather basic.

I have RH 9 installed and I want to add the Interbase extensions to PHP
and then recompile Apache. Conceptually I understand what has to be
done, but I do not know the steps or syntax. Is there documentation
available for doing this?

Just to be sure I understand, by "add" do you mean recompiling with
support for InterBase? If so you will need to add --with-interbase when
you run configure.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.ibase.php

Have you already compiled apache? If so you can probably just tell
configure where apxs is. --with-apxs=/path/to/apache/bin/apxs

http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.apache.php

Just thought I would share my experience with RH9. I have been running
Apache 1.3.27 and PHP 4.3.2 on RH9 for a couple weeks (since 4.3.2 came
out anyway, and 4.3.1 prior to that) on a test server. All are compiled
from source. The only problem I have had was a bug with the version of
mogrify that is bundled with RH9. That was fixed by 'upgrading' to an
older version. Other than that it has been fine.

Apache 2.x.x IS a production quality server, just not with PHP. Works great

ah that's interesting.

another option using multiple returns in one function:

function testvars($var1,$var2)

   if ($var2=='bad') return 'var2 is bad!';

Hello,

I am currently involved in a site where users frequently need to upload text
files of various sizes. Every so often users will experience problems where
the uploads will start timing-out and need to be reinitiated.

The timeout problem comes and goes, so far I've been unable to find the root
cause. It happens with files of all sizes, from 10k to several MB,
eventually they all get uploaded, tho sometimes it can take days re-trying.

Another issue is experienced when the above symptom is happening which makes
me think they're related. An additional tool on the site writes out files
with information provided by a user thru a form. A user submits a form with
some text and php writes out a file with the received info and notifies the
user the task was done. Every so often the browser will timeout with no file
written out by php or notification. This symptom can go on for days. The
info being written to a file is never longer than a dozen lines of text so
it's quite small.

Initially we thought that the server just did not have the resources to
service simultaneous uploads but monitoring tools show the cpu appears to be
near idle when this is experienced. I've experienced the file writing
problem when I was the only user on the server with all unnecessary services
disabled. The browser will just time out, then one days voila! it works
until the next problem day.

This is on a Linux box with Apache 1.3, php 4.2.2 & experienced across
multiple browsers. All the scripts have set_time_limit(0). File system has
the proper permissions and with plenty of free space.

We've been collecting quite a lot of info from the server to try to capture
it's state at the time of the problem but nothing raises any flags.

Has anyone experienced this issue or a similar issue? Any pointers and help
is greatly appreciated.

I'm attempting to create a generic XML writer with the DOMXML functions
which takes as its input the array structure generated by gdemartiti on this
function page:
http://us3.php.net/manual/en/function.xml-parse-into-struct.php

Actually, it's the updated version done by krish3x.com, here:
http://www.devdump.com/phpxml.php

Anyway, the trouble I'm having is when I get to a child element and need to
use 'append_child' -- append_child requires that you specify the ancestor
element you're appending to, but I can't seem to reference that object when
I loop back into the function. This is probably a class/object issue since
I'm pretty useless with classes.

If I come into the function, having passed the ancestor name as a string and
having already added the ancestor as an object in the class, this doesn't
work:

$child = $ancestor->append_child($thisChild);

The error is: "...Call to a member function on a non-object...". How can I
reference that ancestor object when I come back into the function?

(PHP version is 4.3.2, Apache 2.0.44 on Win2k)

You have to pass references to the objects, the ones returned by
append_child. The first time you have to get the root parent and work
from there onwards.

like :
 $doc = domxml_new_doc("1.0");
 $table = $doc->create_element("table");
 $row = $doc->create_element("row");
 $col = $doc->create_element("td");

 $root = $dom->document_element();
 $t1 = $root->append_child($table);
   $r1 = $t1->append_child($row);
    $c1 = $r1->append_child($col);
    $c2 = $r1->append_child($col);
   $r2 = $t1->append_child($row);
    $c3 = $r1->append_child($col);
    $c4 = $r1->append_child($col);

I am assuming that "letter_new.php" outputs the contents of the PDF you
are generating. You could use output buffering to grab the PDF and then
go on with your script:

if ($prtpdf) {
        ob_start();
        include "letter_new.php";
        $pdf_buffer = ob_get_contents();
        ob_end_clean();
}

You need to assign the object to a variable first. There are some
examples in the user contributed notes in the manual, but essentially
something like this:

$header = imap_header($foo, $bar);
print $header->date;

i just write a .csv file with a header that claims it is for Excel. Then
Excel just opens it and converts it for me.

excel has a char limit of 255 , if you can find a work around for it please
do let me know , also , check out the bifwriter , i think the pear packages
just outputs csv right ?

Hey,

would everyone take a wack at
http://www.prattmuseum.org:8080/prattcms/
http://www.prattmuseum.org:8080/prattcms/?id=49

and click links a couple of times? I'm working on some stats, and I
especially need some from foreign countries (not US).

Thanks!

Hello all,

I seem to be running into a problem where the date() function appears not
to differentiate properly between unix timestamps.

For example, the code:

<?php

$seconds = 1054278483;
echo "$seconds<br>";
echo date("d-m-Y H:m:s", $seconds);
echo "<br><br>";

$seconds = ($seconds - 60);
echo "$seconds<br>";
echo date("d-m-Y H:m:s", $seconds);
echo "<br><br>";

?>

outputs

1054278483
30-05-2003 02:05:03

1054278423
30-05-2003 02:05:03

I would expect the second date() to output 30-05-2003 02:04:03 as the
second timestamp is exactly 60 seconds behind the first, but I might be
missing something. I see the same behavior on two redhat linux machines
running Apache 2.0.40 + PHP 4.2.2 and Apache 1.3.26 + PHP 4.3.2
respectively. Any ideas?

Thanks,

You are using an m where you want an i.

I am trying to do a file upload using the following code. Script doesn't
appear to generate any errors that I can see. Just that the file isn't
copied. I have put in some debuging code and all variable seem to be
correct. file just isn't copying. I have tried both copy() and
move_uploaded_file() functions with the same result...file isn't copied. I
must be overlooking the obvious and am hoping someone can point it out to
me. Help would be appreciated.

Note: I am using php v4.0.3pl (I don't have any option and this is the
version that I am stuck with, so I just have to make it work). Thanks in
advance.

echo "upload=".$ufolder.$HTTP_POST_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'];
if ($HTTP_POST_FILES['img1'] != "") {
 move_uploaded_file($HTTP_POST_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'],
$ufolder.$HTTP_POST_FILES['img1']['name']);
 //copy($HTTP_POST_FILES['img1']['tmp_name'],
"$ufolder".$HTTP_POST_FILES['img1']['name']);
  //or die($php_errormsg);
  //or die("Couldn't copy the file!");
 echo "error=".$php_errormsg;
} else {

 die("No input file specified");
}

Thanks.

Is there any way to get Apache's list of extension -> MIME type
associations into an array? I want to readfile() a file which only some
users can view for security, but the file types vary from file to file
so I need to know the MIME type.
