Take a look in the Apache reference docs for mod_rewrite (exactly where you look
depends on which version of Apache you are using).

Then search for (a) any .htaccess files in the web-app, and (b) any Apache
config files: this will be Linux-distro-dependent but somewhere like /etc/apache
or /etc/httpd might be the first thing to try...

You are looking for either directory-specific or system-wide Apache RewriteRule
directives, especially those that contain a pattern which matches ".php3"

If you can't find anything like that, then Apache ain't rewriting...

Nothing wrong with being simple, and therefore both fast and easy to 
understand by a wider audience. The only downer I can immediately think 
of though is that whitespace isn't accommodated, but who really ends a 
file name with white space?

If the line quoted above is exactly as it appears in the PHP script, then it 
will definitely *not* be Apache. A require with just a filename like that goes 
straight to the file system, with nary even a hint of a thought  of involving 
Apache.  So the admin.php3 file must exist *somewhere* in the file system.

As someone else suggested, I think your best bet is to examine the include_path 
setting in php.ini (via a phpinfo() script if necessary).

Hi, Mike,

The include is more like
require "../admin/admin.php3" 
I don't know exactly how Apache performs its magic so I wasn't sure that 
the request for an include file would even pass through Apache's hands.  
In my limited world, an include wouldn't have to involve Apache, just 
the file systems.


We did look at the php.ini file in /etc and it was pretty much 
innocuous.  Looked like a default from when the system was installed.  
I'll have a closer look today.


Thanks.

The admin.php3 seems to be 2 levels above the current dir.

What about

print realpath("../admin/admin.php3")

   You said that there was no windows-1252 setting
in Safari, so I am curious to know if it is capable
of mapping the 1252-encoded page to the correct
characters. If you set your browser to detect the
encoding *automatically*, does the two pages display
identically, or are there differences?

   According to the mappings at unicode.org, there
are a lot of difference between MACROMAN and CP1252,
for instance, the first character on the page (0x80)
is A-DIARESIS in MACROMAN and EURO SIGN in 1252.

That's quite a good suggestion.

Just to be clear about the other point, an include or require is purely file 
system based, *unless* you give it a full URL beginning with a protocol name 
such as http:// or ftp:// (which, as a general rule, is somewhat 
disrecommended!).

No, go back over the archives or digests and you'll see that it
was supposed to be a once-per-week email for post tracking on the list
that went haywire.  It wound up sending over a hundred messages to the
list, which - in my opinion - also indicates a flaw in the mailing
list software.

That was all fixed last week, and no more messages have been sent

My apologies once again to everyone for (what was supposed to be)

now if the datacenter gets the dead hard drive swapped out soon
enough.

Re: [PHP] http_request

[peeyush gulati]

Thank you all for your replies.

We just solved it down using HTTP_REQUEST.

1.What we did was using HTTP_REQUEST a request was send to login page with
post
data credentials like username, password and some other field if required.

2. Then using HTTP_RESPONSE the cookies that were being sent from the
application(viz wordpress,mediawiki) to the layer were retrieved into local
variables.

3. Finally the cookies were set using setcookie() depending what all cookies
were
to be set like sessionid, username and so on.

4. Then using header('Location:URL'); the page was directed to desired
loggedin
page and since the cookies were also set now so the user would not have any
issues in navigating through the application.

If anyone is still not clear or has some doubts please do tell also suggest
if this would have some loop holes.

Thanks once again all.

That's a question that should be asked on the PHP-General list,
actually.  I'm forwarding the response to that list with this message.

Are you receiving any errors?  Are any messages displayed when you
have the following at the beginning of the script?


$_GET and $_POST are predefined superglobal variables, which have
been available in PHP since dinosaurs roamed the Earth.

No, you call me The Moron Who Commented-Out The Wrong Line And
Flooded The List With Test Data.

It's a long name, but it's accurate.  When I was running the cron
to see why the piped response wasn't working (as it turned out, I had
simply mistyped the address in valiases), it was supposed to send the
data directly to my email address only.  However, I commented out the
wrong line, and uncommented the line containing the
php-general@lists.php.net address.

Then, because I didn't know that it was working the whole time,
when I discovered the bugs and repaired them, the messages - sent
every minute by the cron for testing - were queued in the mailing list
database, pending confirmation of the sending address.  THIS is the
part I believe is a serious flaw in the mailing list software, because
it's been proven that all a malicious user would have to do is flood
the list, then confirm the address from which they sent the messages
after the queue has been flooded, and the messages will be dispatched.
 It should only hold a maximum of two messages in the queue, in my
[very] humble opinion.

The problem was that all of the messages were sitting in the queue
without my knowledge.  They were not being sent from the server when
they were being received by subscribers to the list, they were being
sent by the mailing list software.  This also identifies an issue that
would suggest that the mailing list system could be vulnerable to a
denial-of-service style of attack, where the queue is flooded with
thousands - even millions - of messages and doesn't dispose of them
properly.

So once again, my apologies, but I do think that the exercise
accidentally identified a security and stability issue with the list
software that should be addressed.  Maybe it can be done with a
setting, but it may require a hard-coded patch.  I don't know, but
hopefully someone else here does.

Interesting. Would you be kind enough to compare
the following pages (with  headers):

   
   

For what it's worth, the pages look identical when
viewed with Browsrcamp[1], both with and without[2]
 headers.

[PHP] PHP SOAP Client formats

[Tim Traver]

Hi all,

ok, I am a little bit new to the SOAP game, but I understand it, and am 
using it to talk to an outside API.


The problem that I have is that the server that I am talking to (that is 
not in my control), will accept the following SOAP call



http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"; 
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"; 
xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/";>
 
   https://api.authorize.net/soap/v1/";>
 
   name
   string
 
   
 



But it refuses a call that I have made using the SOAPClient PHP classes 
that look like this :



http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/"; 
xmlns:ns1="https://api.authorize.net/soap/v1/";>
 
   
 
   name
   string
 
   
 


It appears that the one that PHP creates is all in line with all of the 
latest standards, and I know that the server is a Microsoft IIS server.


Does anyone know any parameters that I can use with the PHP SOAP client 
that could help me contruct the request like the top one???


I don't want to have to build the text myself, and open a socket and 
send the text manually like I did to verify that the top one works, and 
the bottom one doesn't.


Thanks,

Tim.

[PHP] fgetcsv

[Danny Brow]

Hi Everyone,

I'm trying to compare a value to the first field in a csv fILE (example
of the data below). Using while takes too long and I can't figure out
how to compare just one row at a time. I've tried some variations of the
following.


//Common for all trials
$demoID = fopen("newDemoID.csv", "r");;
$ID = "43";

$data = fgetcsv($demoID);



First try with while:

/*
while ($data) {
if ($data[0] == $wolfID) {
print $data[1] . "," . $data[2] . "," . $data[3] .
".\n";
}
}
*/


Takes for every.

I can't use just the below because it only compares the first row.

/*
if ($data[0] == $wolfID) {
   print $data[1] . "," . $data[2] . "," . $data[3] . ".\n";
}

*/


I know this is simple, but I've hit codes block due to lack of sleep. 

Thanks,
Dan



Sample Data:

> 5,1,"Smith","Myrtle"
> 6,2,"Smith","Carita"
> 7,3,"Smith","Paul"
> 8,4,"Smith","Donald"

[PHP] Unable to override status code in certain installations..?

[RavenWorks]

Hello,

I'm currently trying to create a system where a custom 404 ErrorDocument in
PHP is able to 301 Redirect the browser in certain cases. This works fine on
some servers, however, on some other servers the PHP script seems to be
unable to replace the 404 header.

Correctly overrides with '200' status:
http://fidelfilms.ca/redirectTest/

Unable to override default '404' status:
http://fraticelli.info/redirectTest/

Those two pages will look the same in a browser window, but one returns 404
and one returns 200 (as it should, because of the header() call) -- check
with whatever browser plugin you prefer for reading HTTP headers, such as
Live HTTP Headers for Firefox.

Returning the correct status code is important because we're migrating a
site from one domain to another, and we don't want to lose ranking in search
engines. (In the examples above, I return 200 as a test, but in practice
this will be used to 301 all visitors -- and search engines -- to the new
domain.)

My question is this: What causes PHP to be able to override the
ErrorDocument status on some servers and not others? Is it caused by PHP's
behavior or Apache? Is this a configurable option, or was the behavior
permanently changed in a given version of either?

So are you trying to compare the first column or the first row? You've 
said you want to compare both.


To compare the first row:

If you really do want to compare the first column, then the time to do 
it will be based on how big the csv file is. If you have a big file, 
it's going to take a long time to go through each row and then look at 
the first field.

[PHP] PHP Jpeg Uploads Corrupting

[Scott Wilcox]

Greetings folks,

I'm having a few issues with PHP this evening. I'm uploading various jpg 
images, doing a resize via GD, and then storing the image in a database.


Usually this works fine, but for some unknown reason I'm getting 
corrupted uploads. The corruption happens before any processing is done 
on the image, and I can't seem to work out why. Form is as follows:







You can view the corrupting image here:

http://nixbox.org/page_image.php?type=full

Any help would be appreciated greatly, I just can't seem to figure this 
one out.

even on a slow machine 6500 records should be very fast.

Are you doing this through a web interface or command line?

If browser, are you sure that your script is still running?  Could the PHP 
timeout be exceeded?

Try the other example that I gave you.



I looked for the last result, time for me was

Run time was 0.04 seconds.

Ah my bad, I'd just edited as new :)

/account/photo is a standard apache rewrite, which usually passes the

Any ideas on how to debug/where to go from here?

I think you are falling prey to a PHP bug.

You should be able to find it in:
http://bugs.php.net

You could also check the ChangeLogs:
http://php.net/ChangeLog-5.php
http://php.net/ChangeLog-4.php

I could be wrong, as my memory is rather vague on this one, and it's
always possible that you have similar/same symptoms with an entirely
different issue.

Re: [PHP] Get Parameters in Includes?

[mike]

that is a horrible method.

it works in zeus and apache, but not lighttpd, from my experience.

it's just not a good idea. technically that should only be file paths,
and i would expect it to load a file named "x.cgi?want=ssilinks"
although fopen wrappers can confuse that further...

in my opinion i would say "redesign it properly."

Hi!

I have a cgi script that returns a particular value when I call it as

*IF* the line you are looking for is almost always in the early rows,
and *IF* you only need the first match,
you can use the above and put a "break;" inside the if { }

This will let the script end as soon as it finds the answer.

You do have another $data = fgetcsv($demoID); inside the while loop,
right?

Otherwise you are looking at the same first line over and over and
over and over and over until PHP gives up on you.

It's actually not simple at all, since you are trying to scan through
a large file (it must be large to take a long time) and find only one
chunk at the beginning of a row.

There are several other techniques to consider:
#1.
Put the data into an SQL database before you try to search for
specific field/value information.
SQL was designed to make this stuff fast.
CSV was designed to dump files out to pass between
spreadsheets/databases.

#2.
*IF* the file isn't TOO large compared to your available RAM, you
could load the whole thing with "file_get_contents" and then do some
preg magic to find the line you want:
$file = file_get_contents("/full/path/to/file");
preg_match("/^$wolfID,.*\$/ms", $file, $match);
var_dump($match);
//use preg_match_all to find ALL the lines that match

#3.
*IF* the file is too large, and *IF* the CSV parsing is the slow part
(which I doubt) it's possible that a simple fgets() and simple check
sch as:
if (substr($line, 0, strlen($wolfID)) == $wolfID)
would be faster...
Actually, pull the strlen($wolfID) out of the loop into a variable,
and maybe use strpos instead of substr instead and...
The biggest time sink is probably reading the file line by line,
though, not the actual processing which is pretty minimal... In which
case this solution will probably not significantly beat your current
time.

Re: [PHP] fgetcsv

[Richard Lynch]

6500 rows is chump-change.

You probably don't have the fgetcsv inside the while loop to get past
the first row... :-)

i gave you an opinion and my personal experience trying to support the

i assume the .cgi is in perl, and you're trying to call this in PHP?

if it is all PHP, you can define a variable and just call the include
without having to deal with a query string. probably not the case.

if not, then pre-generate the navigation items in a flatfile and call
that in using include(). otherwise you can waste a web request each
time back to your webserver to execute the CGI with the proper
environment and parameters.

i could give a rip about capitalization here, and the grammar being

meat of the message anyway and look for other things to reply about.

In order to fire the CGI and have it processed, you would need to do:

$html = file_get_contents("http://.../x.cgi?want=ssilinks";);

This will require php.ini to have allow_url_fopen set to "on" which
has some serious security considerations to ponder before you go
changing it...

Re: [PHP] PHP SOAP Client formats

[Tim Traver]

Bastien,

Thank you for answering, but the issue is that the PHP SOAPClient 
classes actually create that xml to send, so I have no control over the 
xml that is sent with a call command to the SOAP object...


I just wondered if there was any flags that I am missing that might 
bring the php stuff in line with what the server expects.


I want to use PHP's built in classes for this so I don't have to 
manually send xml to the api...


Thanks,

Tim.

1) lynx -dump http://blah.com/x.cgi?getssi >file.htm every so often,
or some other method to request the cgi and dump the output
2) include("http://blah.com/x.cgi?getssi";) requires fopen wrappers on
includes and is a poor security measure (would not really recommend
this)
3) use curl functions to grab it in PHP and display (still will
technically issue an HTTP request) - probably the best method, if you
have to.

CGI scripts are not designed to be executed on the command line using
parameters like GET. which is why it's poorly supported. i do have it
working under zeus and i have had it working in the past under apache,
but it might have been due to a specific configuration method (it also
was not CGI, but an SSI call to a php script with GET parameters...
same idea, but different SAPI, which could be why it doesn't work for
you anyway)

i didnt want to spend all night screwing around w/ it, since i dont have

now you're just asking the list to code something for you...


my suggestions again:

look into rewriting it to be more reusable
look at http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.tidy-get-body.php

it's CGI, it can be executed using perl on the shell, sometimes -
depends on what it actually does. however it may count as a "hit"
either way. CGI must be executed to work, just depends on if it's
going to be executed via the web (definately a hit) or the shell
(maybe/maybe not depending on what the script does)

what language are you comfortable in?

obviously perl is supported on your server.

i would recommend if you know perl, to stick with what you know and
integrate it together.

otherwise it sounds like you've got a handful of requirements (and
scope creep), no clue where to start, and no PHP knowledge to boot.
this is where i think you decide to just "pay someone to do it quick"
:)

1) rentacoder.com
2) phparch.com forums i think has a jobs area

anyway, expression stuff can be done using php.net/preg, php.net/ereg
and if possible, just normal str* functions. first you need to get the
content though and if you can't get that, i'm not sure that's going to
help any more ...

Hey Nathan,

Thanks...that's actually really funny, because they must have put the 
PHP sample code for the CIM method in there within the last week, 
because that was why I was writing my own SOAP stuff to interact with 
them (using those manuals)...


The issue that I ended up running in to was that the SOAP calls I was 
making were getting errors back, and I couldn't get anyone from 
authorize.net to give me any support for what the issue was...


Hopefully, their PHP class will do the trick...

Thanks,

Tim.
