[PHP] fgetc()

2001-06-22 Thread Greg Donald

Is it possible to read in binary data as the client side of a stream using
fgetc()?

In particular, is it possible to delimate string separation using \0 as a
delimiter? All attempts to recognize and or read the \0 character fails.

Thanks,
Greg

[PHP] NaN

I was wondering how I would test to see if a number was NaN.  When I
assign log(-1) to a constant, it does not seem to equal another variable
that is NaN.

[PHP] PHP authenticating and session management

2001-06-22 Thread Arash Dejkam

Hi,

I want to use PHP session manager but I have some problems,

I want the session start in a login page so I do this for example:

after authenticating...
session_start();
session_register("username");

then I want the user to be able to see his own pages, what do I have to do
in those pages?

simply check $username and bring up the user's page ? but this makes it
possible for any hacker to send a cookie with username and see that page. I
know that PHP stores a unique random number for each session but how can I
check that it matches with the number in the cookie.

help me please I'm really confused !

Thanks

Arash Dejkam

You must have libmcrypt installed on your system (not the entire 
mcrypt program, just the libraries) prior to compiling PHP.

Get it here:

[PHP] Re: Lists are back up

2001-06-22 Thread Morgan Curley

This is something I had been meaning to ask for a
while.
Can message dates be normalized at the list server?
It seems like a lot of people out there don't know how to set their
clocks or want lots of attention by setting their clocks months + years
ahead so their messages are always pinned to the top of message
lists.

the perfect example is a message with the subject '[PHP]
Hurray!'
it was sent 6/19
it has no technical value whatsoever ( subjective :)
It is pinned to the bottom of my message list in Eudora as the newest
message

I am no mailserver admin so I don't know what is involved in trying to
fix this at the server, but for a list that is so helpful this is really
annoying.

Thanks,
Morgan

I am not aware of the internals, but the displayed behaviour when using
OciPLogon is exactly the same with the one displayed when you "forget"
to OciLogout.
I assume that a new connection is made, since I cannot find another
explanation for the number of open connections to increase.
I measure open connections doing "ps -elf | grep oracle | grep tnslsnr".

I don't think so. All connections to Oracle will close if left by

Re: [PHP] Sessions vs Cookies?

PHP sessions actually are cookies in most cases, but will revert to 
sending an ID tag in the URL if the user has cookies disabled (the ID 
tag does not need to be programmed into the URL, the PHP engine 
inserts it automatically).

Use sessions. Period.

If you design your own cookie solution, it won't work for people who have 
disabled cookies.  If you design your own "ID tag in the URL" system, 
you will have A LOT of extra typing to get the ID tag in every URL. If you 
design one that works for both, you've wasted a lot of time.

If you use PHP's sessions, you let PHP do the work for you.

Better than my previous effort :-):

";
$days = floor($diff / 86400);
$seconds_left = $diff % 86400;
echo "Days: $days";
echo "Seconds remaining: $seconds_left";
$hours = floor($seconds_left / 3600);
$seconds_left = $seconds_left % 3600;
echo "Hours: $hours";
echo "Seconds remaining: $seconds_left";
$minutes = floor($seconds_left / 60);
$seconds_left = $seconds_left % 60;
echo "Minutes: $minutes";
echo "Seconds remaining: $seconds_left";
?>

You might want to add a check on wheter $now is earlier or later that he 
value in the DB, and act accordingly.

[PHP] Multiple JavaScript Windows

2001-06-22 Thread Carlos Fernando Scheidecker Antunes



Hello All,
 
I need to have multiple JavaScripts windows with my 
database PHP script.
 
The idea is to have a main Page and links to pop-up 
JavaScript Windows to enter information on the database. Once these windows are 
closed the main PHP page need to be automaticaly updated.
 
The Database is a Report system that depends on 4 
tables. One main table and 3 other tables that contain information for that 
report such as part number, procedures taken and repairs made. Each report can 
have none to several parts, none to several procedures and one to several 
repairs.
 
Once the user starts a new report a lot od stuff is 
add to the main table such as CustomerNo, ReportNo, ReportDate, etc. Then, the 
other three tables lists parts, procedures and repairs for a Report using the 
ReportNo as common field.
 
The help and advice I need consist of 
beeing able to call pop up windows with JavaScript from the main page to add

Re: [PHP] Sessions vs Cookies?

2001-06-22 Thread Michael Hall


As I understand it, PHP's session management uses cookies anyway unless
they are turned off by the browser, in which case session info is attached
to the URL.

So I'd use sessions rather than cookies alone.

without even looking at the rest:

if MaxClients is higher than the number of sessions oracle
allows -> you are toasted! 

you have to expect _one_ persistent connection to each
oracle-instance you connect to per running apache child! in
your case expect up to 150 single connection. if you cannot
support 150 single connection to your oracle-server - a)
decrease MacClients -or- b) up your oracle-session limit!

please get back to me if this is indeed your problem - i'll
investigate further after that!

(i'll look thru the rest of your mail when i find some time -
sorry, just getting up)

If you are going to pass values as part of the URL you should urlencode() 
them to avoid problems with spaces and other interesting characters. So

[PHP] LDAP

2001-06-22 Thread Derek

I'm doing some R & D with PHP and OpenLDAP

I managed to get the php function ldap_add to work and I've been using PHP
to add form-submitted information to a directory.

However I decided to include another objectclass (uidObject) and now it
returns with:
error - Object class violation
error number - 65

I can use the ldapadd client and load an ldif file containing exactly the
same info into the directory.

Why won't it work from within PHP

I've included an excerpt from my code, below.  Thanks in advance for any
help.

Derek



$ds=ldap_connect("localhost");
if ($ds) {
$r=ldap_bind($ds, "cn=admin,dc=domain,dc=com","mypassword");
$rdn = "o=$username,ou=suppliers,ou=customers,dc=domain,dc=com";

$info["userPassword"]="$password";
$info["o"]="$organisation";
$info["uid"]="$username";
$info["objectclass"]="organization";
$info["objectclass"]="uidObject";

$add=ldap_add($ds, $rdn, $info);
$error = ldap_error($ds);
$errno = ldap_errno($ds);
echo "error is $error number $errno";

ldap_close($ds);
} else {
echo "could not connect to directory";
}

[PHP] PHP equivalent for Oracle ORA_FFI

2001-06-22 Thread Euan Greig

We have a data load program written in Oracle Reports 2.5 (yes, I know, it
wasn't me!). This uses ORA_FFI to interface with a .dll to validate and
reformat addresses. I would like to perform the same interface in PHP if
possible, without needing to do any development work on or around the .dll.
Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Some sample code below. The key points are, I think.
1. Oracle seems to be able, using Ora_FFI, to directly access a function in
a .dll, passing it parameters, and receiving its return output.
2. In the package initialization, at the end of the page, the .dll
'TBIF100.dll', referrred to as a library, is first loaded and opened, and
then the function 'PAS988V659' within the library is registered along with
its in/out parameters.
3. As a result of this, the dll and the function are assigned handles. The
function handle is used in the function i_obm988 to actually execute the
function.It's a rather strange looking bit of PL/SQL but it works!

PACKAGE BODY call_cbm988_pas IS
 lh_obm988 ora_ffi.libHandleType;
 fh_obm988 ora_ffi.funcHandleType;

   FUNCTION i_obm988(
funcHandle IN ora_ffi.funcHandleType
   ,cons_name  IN OUT VARCHAR2
   -- other parameters
   )
   RETURN PLS_INTEGER;
   PRAGMA INTERFACE(C,i_obm988,11265);

BEGIN -- Package Initialization
 BEGIN
 lh_obm988 := ora_ffi.find_library('TBIF100.dll');
 EXCEPTION WHEN ora_ffi.FFI_ERROR THEN
 lh_obm988 := ora_ffi.load_library(NULL,'TBIF100.dll');
 END ;
 fh_obm988 :=
ora_ffi.register_function(lh_obm988,'PAS988V659',ora_ffi.PASCAL_STD);
 ora_ffi.register_parameter(fh_obm988,ORA_FFI.C_CHAR_PTR);
 ora_ffi.register_parameter(fh_obm988,ORA_FFI.C_CHAR_PTR);
 -- register other parameters
END call_cbm988_pas;

Thanks

RE: [PHP] php as cron

2001-06-22 Thread AJDIN BRANDIC

Hi again,

this is what I have done, as adviced by you guys (thanks)

created a file called pop which contains
#! /bin/sh
lynx -dump http://192.168.254.10/pop3/pop3_stuff2.php3 > /dev/null
clear

If I execute this from the shell ./pop it works OK.
But as a cron job I get an error message sent to my mail box
"Your terminal lacks the ability to clear the screen or position the 
cursor.",
hence this 'clear' bit in my script to try to sort the problem but no joy.

Any ideas?

Heh - I think that is still just looking after the lists and it's sitting

There is information on the various mailing lists, including the 
developer list, at http://au2.php.net/support.php or your favourite

Not sure if you've seen it but there is a file in the distribution 
/ext/ext_skel which might be relevant.

Re: [PHP] PHP authenticating and session management

2001-06-22 Thread Style|warrioR

I'm not quite sure if this is the perfect way cause I'm pretty new to this
session stuff, too.
but my version looks like this:

[login.php]
a form with username and password field.
submit --> auth.php


[auth.php]
check if username and password are ok (from a text file or your mysql
database) [yes|no]
[no] -> echo "bad login or password."; exit;
[yes] -> start a session, save username and password in session vars,
redirect to userpage


lets say your userpages look like "aUsername_blah.php"


["aUsername_blah.php"]
include a script on every userpage that checks if login and password are
correct [yes|no]
[no] -> redirect to login.php
[yes] -> display page


comments appreciated :)

2001-06-22 Thread Stephen Yau

Hi,

 You can use $HTTP_SESSION_VARS["username"] to make sure that this variable 
is from the user session, not from the cookie. 

 When you do a session_register("username");, the $username is store in the 
server side, not on the client. The client side only have a Session ID store 
in the cookie. Each time when a client side request a php page, PHP will see 
if a specific Session ID has been sent with the request. If this is the 
case, the prior saved environment is recreated.

RE: [PHP] SMTP/mail question

2001-06-22 Thread mailing_list

Hi!

I did it!
once again what I wanted to do:
I wanted to send a mail, but use "MAIL FROM:" and "RCPT TO:" from the
SMTP-Protocol and check, if the domain is accepted (nslookup MX)!
I had a perl script, that does this trick.  Unfortunately the php-mail()
can't do a "RCPT TO:" and "MAIL FROM:" explicitly (would be great in a future
release!!!) !

for them who don't know:
--
telnet mymailserver 25
HELO localhost
MAIL FROM: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
RCPT TO: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
DATA
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: TESTMAIL

This is the Body ...
.
--
the result:
.) if address is correct: mail will be delivered to [EMAIL PROTECTED],
though in the To: header is written something else.
.) if there is no user realrecipient at you.com, the mail will be resent to
[EMAIL PROTECTED] (Delivery-Error), though in the From: header is written
something else.
.) if the domain you.com doesn't exist or doesn't have a valid MX-entry,
then the RCPT TO: isn't accepted and the mail won't be sent!!!

what I did (my sendmail.pl handles 1.RCPT TO, MAIL FROM;2.Mail
Headers;3.Mail Body - all stored in $message):
$fh=popen("scripts/sendmail.pl","w");
fwrite($fh,$message);
if (pclose($fh)==0){
  echo "Mail was sent successful!";
}else{
  echo "Couldn't deliver mail (none or wrong MX-entry)!";
}

[PHP] MySQL - get_lock() / release_lock()

2001-06-22 Thread Carsten H. Pedersen

Does anyone know the status on implementing
MySQL's client functions get_lock() and release_lock()
in PHP?

The functions have been around since MySQL 
3.21.27 was released in March 1998. Maybe it's about time
to get it into PHP as well?

Yes, I understand this.
But in my test case below, I never requested more than 50 connections to
oracle.
The problem is there even if you request 20 connections, provided that
you run the test script in quick succession and do not wait for the
oracle connections to die.

That is, if you:


while [-f file]; do
  ab -n 100 -c 20 
done


after a while you will get failed requests.

MaxClients 150, ensures that I do not run out of Apache childs and that
the failed requests are indeed due to ora conditions.

[PHP] OCIExecute hangs with invalid sql statement

2001-06-22 Thread Euan Greig

The following code works fine if passed a valid sql statement in $sql, but
if not it hangs.

$this->conn=OCIPLogon($orauser,$orapwd,$tns) or
   die ("Could not log on to database");
$this->stmnt = OCIParse($this->conn, $sql) or
   die ("Could not initialize database query (parse)");
$result = OCIExecute($this->stmnt) or
   die ("Could not perform database query (exec)");

I have tried to identify an error at the OCIParse stage, using OCIError, but
without success. It seems OCIParse does not return or generate an error for
an invalid statement. Instead it returns a statement ID which apparently
sends OCIExecute into a coma.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Euan

[PHP] confused with sessions

2001-06-22 Thread kaab kaoutar

Hi!
I'm confused with these sessions :(
well here is what i want to do!
I have a web site whos pages are all composed of frames(4)!
and in the top frame i have the loggin button!
i want , once the user logged, the fees that are in pages (frames) become 
visible and once logged out, the fees likns disappear...
i have  atable that in mysql dbs that stores users login!
enable_transit_id is enabled in php! the os is unix and wS is apache!

Any ideas?
What i've done so far is to start sessions in each page register the logged 
boolean once logged and destroy it once logged out!
also i had to phpsessid to each url in frames otherwise it does not work! i 
also added the session_name but if i don't add phpsessid to urls it creates 
new sessions each time !
i don't want to use cookies, they are enabled ! maybe that's why 
session_name does not work ?

Please help me !

  I had the same problem some time ago on TWO different machines running
their 
own Oracle database and the same PHP application.
  The problem makes me to always restart Apache so the open connections
would die.
  The application was doing both a normal and a persistent connection on
two 
different database tablespaces (differents users). One was always using
OciPLogon 
and the other, OCILogon.
  The strange thing was that both connections were hold by Oracle as an
open 
connection so I supposed that the OCIPLogon was holding the other
connection, even 
if it was a normal one (non-persistent).
  One machine had to be restarted to hardware upgrade and after that it
didn't 
show the problem anymore...and the PHP application was still THE SAME!
  Then I had two machines, with the same configuration (OS, DB Version,
PHP App.)
but one had this connection problems, and the other was just fine.
  Some time ago we decided to shut down the Oracle Server on the 'buggy
machine' 
and start it again. The PHP application was still the same. No more
problems.
  I could not say exactly what was going on but this is how it worked
for me.
  I saw some 'bug reports' on Oracle, saying that some kind of changes
on database 
layout, running together with a PHP application could cause Oracle to
hold 
PHP db persistent connections.

Hope this helps,

Why not just check for username this way:



Then username has to be registered as a session variable so any hacker
(sic) can't just send a username to see that page.

* * * * * php -q /var/www/path/to/script.php

It surpresses those HTML headers that you propably don't want in shell mode.

[PHP] Oracle Database keeps disconnecting - or something

2001-06-22 Thread Taylor, Stewart

Hello,
 
Just in case anyones got any ideas.
 
I've been testing an application for a few weeks on a test server without
any problems.
After releasing it onto the live server, which is - according to the
administrator - setup exactly the same as the test server I've been running
into problems.
 
Apparently the database seems to be disconnecting randomly see log file
extract below.
 
I already had a application on the live server which has been working
perfectly for a year or so.  Now the new application is live it is having
the same problem as well.
 
The test version of the already live application is also on the same test
server and both databases on live and test are setup exactly the same way.
 
 
My administrator tells me that we have a license for unlimited connections
to the database etc..
 
My setup us
OCI8 Revision 1.96
Oracle Version 8.1
Apache Apache/1.3.11
Redhat Linux 6.2
php 4.0.2
I'm also using phplib 7.2c to manage authentication/sessions and database
access.
 
 
I would be very grateful if anyone has got any suggestions

[PHP] Error messages

2001-06-22 Thread Coughlan, Andy-HQ
Title: Error messages





Hi Guys and Gals,


Whilst developing various php pages I noticed that occasionally when I get an error in a page the parser won't tell me which line the error is on, and just shows "error on line 1" even if the error is on line 93.  It isn't every page that does it, although I've tried saving an offending file as a different name and this symptoms still occur.  Has anyone else had a similar experience, and, if so, do they know if there's a fix for it?

[PHP] apache and php ate up all my memory :-[

2001-06-22 Thread Sebastian Stadtlich

Hi all

Probably some Apache/mysql/php-Admin gurus can give me a hint :
i just moved a website to it's own server ( my first one).
now apache had eaten up all physical and virtual memory
some httpd had allocated 45MB of RAM, memory ran out myqsl crashed...

php is compiled in to apache 
Apache/1.3.19 (Unix) PHP/4.0.4pl1 
these are the relevant entries is my  httpd.conf
Timeout 300
KeepAlive On
MaxKeepAliveRequests 500
KeepAliveTimeout 15
MinSpareServers 5
MaxSpareServers 20
StartServers 20
MaxClients 150
MaxRequestsPerChild 500

in the php.ini

memory_limit = 8M 
( but i think that has nothing to do with it)

i can't find anything in the logfiles exept that some httpd were already
killed by itself, because
there was no memory left that they could eat
needless to say that my site does NOT get that much traffic that the
server was at the edge
of it's capacity.
HELP...

Sebastian

Why don't you put directly this line in your cron file ?

i.e :

Re: [PHP] php as cron

2001-06-22 Thread infoz

If you're partial to the approach of using a web-based program to do this
(often a bad idea, for security reasons) then look at 'curl' or 'wget'
instead of 'lynx'. (you can find them on Freshmeat.net)

Much better is to build the CGI version of PHP, and use PHP as a script
processor just like Perl, Korn, BASH, etc., i.e.

#!/path/to/php.cgi -q
...script goes here...

[PHP] protected Images without using htaccess

2001-06-22 Thread Arash Dejkam

Hi,

I'm going to make a page in which users (being authenticated by PHP session
management) upload pictures and specify which other users can see those
pictures, and I want all the process be automated, and I don't want to use
Apache protection on directories, now I have a problem: if I store images in
a directory which is in root directory
of  HTTP server, then any user can access any image by sending a direct
query from his browser like :
www.mysite.com/members/images/img023.jpg even if he is not allowed. and also
I can not save image out of HTTP root directory because then http can not
serve them.
I found a very foolish solution for this :) I can store the images out of
HTTP root dir and then use a PHP script which first checks the session ID
and then sends the images with ImageCreateFromJPEG() and ImageJPEG()
functions.

Can anybody give me a better way to solve this problem ?

Thanks
Arash Dejkam

Re: [PHP] confused with sessions

2001-06-22 Thread Chris Lee

trans_sid is only enabled when cookies are not supported. php.ini has
session.use_cookies = 0; this will disable cookies and force trans-sid. you
should also verify trans-sid with phpinfo(), make sure it really did get
compiled in.

trans-sid will only re-write urls that are not full urls. ie.

index.php is ok
http://www.e-tankless.com/index.php is not. you will have to re-write it
yourself.

if cookies are disabled and the phpsessid is not in the url then php has
absolutly no way of knowing its the same customer, therfore it creates a new
phpsessid.

1. Authenticate user
2. Put the pictures in a "secret" folder or outside http_root
3. Do this:

Re: [PHP] Error messages

2001-06-22 Thread enygma

A lot of times, it will tell you what kind of error it isif it's a
parse error, the first thing to look for is a missing semi-colon or
something. Other than that, braces and parens are the ones that I miss
the most. It's just a limitation of the PHP debugger right now. It might
be fixed in later versions, but until then I'd just suggest an editor
that does syntax highlighting. It's helped me not miss as many little
things like that.

[PHP] Is it possible to have the parameters fo a function be exited HTML?

2001-06-22 Thread Jason Lustig

Is it possible to break up the parameters of a function with ?> and 






http://www.php.net";>php.net








With this example, will it output the following HTML?








HTTP://WWW.PHP.NET";>PHP.NET







I know it's not a very useful use of strtoupper()... :) But I am curious
about whether it is possible to have the parameters to a function in exited
HTML. Is it possible?

[PHP] simple questions about sessions

2001-06-22 Thread kaab kaoutar


Hi!

1- is there a way with which i can verify that a session variable is 
registered or exists  without using start_session cause if it's not 
registered and there is no session it'll create the session !
i tried isset() but if it's set i have to use start_session so as to get the 
values and as we know start_session should be at the beginning!

2- if i create a session in a page can it be used in all the site pages and 
rames without adding any $phpsessid to all urls?
in my php.ini the enable-transit-id is enabled !
byt the way what do u mean by compilin php? i just save the php.ini!

3-with IE and netscape as i add the phpsessid to urls , sometimes it 
remmbers an old session and displays it to me ! how can i avoid these?
please help i'm confused!

[PHP] compiling with the gd library

I have a client that wants to have the gd library compiled into php, I got a modern 
version of the gd lib (1.8.4 and 2.0.1) and both state that they dropped support for 
gifs...  but the ext/gd/gd.c tries to use gif calls...  I'm confused.

Re: [PHP] toronto developers?

2001-06-22 Thread J Smith

I don't know if there's a PHP developer community here, but I'm an
individual
who doesn't mind sharing a bit of knowledge.

I started working in TO back in March. I'm working for a tiny company as
their
sole coder, doing stuff all over the board -- C, C++, Perl, PHP. Most of it
is
PHP, but I've written some extensions to PHP itself in C++ and C, and some
of the
stuff surrounding our database (like our search engine indexer) is in Perl.
The
company is basically a web-based ASP, and since we didn't have a ton of
money to
start with, going the PHP/Apache/Linux/free software route was a natural
choice.

Anyways, I guess that's it.

Welcome to Toronto.

[PHP] recompiling libphp4.so with -DEAPI

2001-06-22 Thread Tyler Longren

Hello,

I recompiled php/apache/openssl/mod_ssl yesterday on a server (exact same as
I had done it before).  Before apache started up with SSL with no problem.
Now when I start (./apachectl startssl), I get this warning:
[Fri Jun 22 10:59:03 2001] [warn] Loaded DSO libexec/libphp4.so uses plain
Apache 1.3 API, this module might crash under EAPI! (please recompile it
with -DEAPI)

Can I just recompile libphp4.a with DEAPI somehow and not have to recompile
apache?  Here is the ./configure for php:
'./configure' '--with-apache=../apache_1.3.20' '--with-mysql'
'--with-msql=/usr/local/Hughes' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-xml'
'--disable-debug' '--enable-track-vars'

Here was the ./configure from Apache:
SSL_BASE=../openssl-0.9.6a
./configure --enable-module=ssl --enable-shared=ssl   --activate-module=src/
modules/php4/libphp4.a --enable-module=php4 --enable-module=rewrite   --enab
le-shared=rewrite --enable-module=cgi --enable-shared=cgi --enable-module=in
clude  --enable-shared=include --prefix=/usr/local/apache

Thanks everyone,
Tyler

That's really a lot of coding to do when you consider that PHP does this 
(or something very similar) for you when it initializes your user session.

It really would be foolish to attempt to create new session tracking code 
if you use PHP4.

Allow PHP to initialize the session, assign the variable, attempt to set 
the cookie and place the session ID onto the URL tag if it can't read the 
cookie.  All that you have to do as the programmer is insert the session 
ID (which PHP has generated) into a database and possibly match it up 
with a valid login in that database entry.

Doing the session coding yourself is a waste of time. You're not likely to 
find a more reliable session tracking solution than what's built into 
PHP4 as long as HTTP connections remain stateless.

This SQL statement:

That should work... pretty much, unless you give a WHERE statement, it will
do whatever you want (UPDATE, SELECT, DELETE, etc) to every record in the

[PHP] un-official miror of php.net

2001-06-22 Thread Reuben D Budiardja


Hi, 
Is it allowed to be an un-official mirror of php.net? I mean, I want to have 
php.net site on my local webserver, but it's mainly for the use of our own 
development group (intranet), ie. not publicly available, and not to be 
listed in the list of php.net mirror.

I'm mostly interested to have all the functionality of function reference / 
search, and not the whole site, eg. I don't need the download part since I 
can always download from the real www.php.net. Any help on how the easiest 
way to set this up would be appreciated

Please let me know if this is OK or not.

Thanks

[PHP] gd library

This message never showed up on the list so I appologize if it shows up 2x.

I have a customer that wants to use the gd library with PHP, I got 2 different 
versions (1.3.8 and 2.0.1) and both say that they no longer support GIF formats...  
but when I try to compile the ext/gd/gd.c file I get errors on GIF function calls.

Is there a way around this?

Re: [PHP] How to connect to remote database server through PHP?

2001-06-22 Thread George Whiffen

Manisha,

For the Sybase network connections, you are probably best
off contacting Sybase 
specialists. php via the sybase_connect function is likely
to look like any other Sybase 
client on a remote box, so the question is mostly about how
do you get any Sybase client 
on your web server to communicate with the main database
server.

What about the administrator of the main database server? 
They should be able to help
you on the Sybase networking side.  In any case they are
likely to have
lots of opinions about the security implications of what you
are trying to do.

What you can tell your client is that you should have no
problem with
sending updates to the main database server from your side,
but you really
need their central database people to brief you on what is
acceptable/sensible
from their side.

Sorry I couldn't help more.

Re: [PHP] simple questions about sessions

2001-06-22 Thread Style|warrioR

greetings.

Your no [1] question describes exactly the problem I have...and
I thought session_is_registered() would do the job...(but I was wrong)
...
Now my solution looks like this:

session_register("session_uID");
if (isset($session_uID)) {
do something;
}
else {
session_destroy(); // destroy the "accidentely" generated session, which
means I have no session
}

not very nice - I knowbut the only way I found to solve the prob


[2]
if u have "enable-transit-id" enabled, PHP will add the &PHPSESSID=blah to
all your HREFs and forms (I think a hidden field is automatically added) - u
don't need to do anything in addition). if u
want to redirect via header command u have to do it like this:
header ("Location: aDocument.php?".SID);


[3]
that NEVER happened to me - so I have absolutely no idea


greetz,

Re: [PHP] session question

2001-06-22 Thread George Whiffen

Derick,

If you're seriously looking at thousands of concurent users
(let alone
millions) and the kind of budget on hardware and comms that
implies, 
then I'd suggest you seriously look at your own session
solution with MySQL or 
whatever.

You can perfectly easily just use your own authentication
against
your MysQL user base and pick up all their "session" data
from
the same table or related tables if there is a lot of it.

The basic logic for each page runs :

Is $PHP_AUTH_USER set?  If not send out an authenticate
header.

If $PHP_AUTH_USER is set pick out the user entry and
password from your MySQL
database and check the password, if it fails send back the
authenticate header.  Pick up all your session data while
you're
checking the password, so from one database query you've got 
everything sorted out.

Do whatever processing you need and just before sending back
the 
next bunch of html, update the user's record storing back
all the
session information.

That's session management for you.  The only advantage of
standard
session management tools like php's session management is
that you
can change what you store without making any database
changes.  But 
your volume of traffic you shouldn't expect to make any
quick and easy
changes to the logic of whatever you're doing.

It's not really a lot of work to do this and you do get
extra benefits
 in terms of flexibility over what session data is stored
for how long 
and in what format.  Basically you don't have a problem as
long as the user's 
don't have a lot of session data.  If they do have a lot of
session data, 
you've got a major storage/retrieval problem regardless of
your session
tool and you probably need to chuck a highly-tuned
customised database
structure at it anyway!!

Hope that helps,

George

i've found somebody in hamburg (which is where i live) who
could show me the problem. his setup is rather complex - so
if you could send me a _short_ testcase (_without_ phplib)
that reproduces you problem i would be very happy to work on
it!

are you using oracle-MTS by any chance?


BTW: could you please comment out the call to
php_config_ini_shutdown() in main/main.c and see if it makes
any difference for you?

(zeev: the call to php_config_ini_shutdown is too early, if a
module calls php_error in the MSHUTDOWN
core_globals->error_log is already freed - i think we need to
fix this!)

regards,
tc

Re: [PHP] Oracle Database keeps disconnecting - or something

2001-06-22 Thread Rouvas Stathis

Do you experience any other sort of problems other than those warnings?
I mean, is anything wrong with the data? Normally, nothing should be
wrong.

I have seen the same messages (especially the "service handle not
intitialized" one) in my server too.
I have traced it to attemtps to close an already closed connection, as
in

$cone = OciLogon(...);
...stuff...
OciLogout($cone);
...stuff...
OciLogout($cone);

Other than filling the logs, there doesn't seem to be any other problem.
In my apps, everything works as it should.
I tend to simply ignore them:-)
