[PHP] MySQL database

2001-05-16 Thread \[Inf\] F!RE-WALL

Yo,

I'd like to use a MySQL database on my website. If I look at the PHP details
of my site (see for yourself at http://infinity.shrimpwars.be/phpinfo.php)
it says under the MySQL section: "enabled". Well, if I create a testpage
with this as content:



I get this:

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to local MySQL server
through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (111) in
/clans/infinity/mysql.php on line 2
unable to connect to database

If I run the script on my local machine I get this:

Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Can't connect to MySQL server on
'localhost' (10061) in e:\webserver\phptest\mysql.php on line 2
unable to connect to database


What is wrong? Do note that I don't know much about MySQL, I'm still
learning :-P

Erm..I'm using windows.
And euhI have MySQL installed, but I don't know if it's running. Anyway,
the phpinfo() returns that "MySQL" is enabled.so I guess it must be
working.

[PHP] session handling

2001-03-28 Thread \[Inf\] F!RE-WALL

Every time I want to initiate a session i get this:

Warning: open(/tmp\sess_b18426d4011c38e033bd0ed54bd2d2f1, O_RDWR) failed: m
(2) in e:\webserver\phptest\page1.php on line 2

current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on line 0

I run an Apache webserver under Windows and I have the latest version of
PHP. I looked up the "session.save_path" in the php.ini file and it sais:

[Session]

session.cache_expire  = 180 ; document expires after n minutes

; by compiling with --enable-trans-sid
url_rewriter.tags =
"a=href,area=href,frame=src,input=src,form=fakeentry"

What's wrong with /tmp ? Where's that map located? Do I need to change the
entry? Should I create the dir? If so, where?

if you use windows then paht myst be c:\tmp or somthing like that.

the difference between unix & windows systems are directory adressing
symbols, unix uses / windows on the oder hand \, fix this in php.ini and
it will work

Re: [PHP] What is the difference between session_unset() and session_destroy()?

2001-03-28 Thread \[Inf\] F!RE-WALL

Erm...I believe session_unset unsets all variables in the session, leaving
the session itself intact. While session_destroy deletes the entire session
and all variables in it.
But I'm not so sure.

Re: [PHP] sessions and cookies

2001-03-31 Thread \[Inf\] F!RE-WALL

I don't recommend putting the Session ID in the URL. Subscibed members could
pass URL's to eachother and that way they could have eachother's settings.
