[PHP] Upgrade issues

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

I upgraded from PHP 4.2.1 to 4.2.2, and now all of a sudden the following
code is generating a WARNING???


if (file_exists("themes/$ThemeSel/modules/$name/$mod_file.php")) {
$modpath = "themes/$ThemeSel/";
}

I don't get it?

Warning: Unable to access themes/DeepBlue/modules/News/index.php in
/usr/local/www/v-webs/games.savage.za.org/html/index.php on line 46

Line 46 is the if statement

:/

Yeah, and no.  It's FreeBSD-Ports, my php.ini is unchanged.  FreeBSD
installs the new / updated ini files as ini-dist, so hence, nothing on my
settings has changed.  I did also check to verify this, and it is indeed the
correct ini file, with the correct settings...

Yes the file does not exist.  But isn't that why file_exists() is there?

As ridiculous as this sounds...

Turning of safe mode made the warning go away.  Now, I guess the question
is, 1) is this a bug in the file_exists() function, or 2) does the default
warning levels increase when operating under safe mode?

Either way, this never happened to me before, and is only now happening
since upgrading from 4.2.1 to 4.2.2...

Rather peculiar I think...

All files are owened by my Apache user + Group, set to rw access on files
and rwx on directories...

I do a chown + chmod on my web server's tree every few minutes via cron for
my development system.

Just to proove my point...

root@netsonic:~# ls -l
/usr/local/www/v-webs/games.savage.za.org/html/index.php

Re: [PHP] Mass Mailing

[Chris Knipe]

Why not just use simple alias files?

1) You have a file with all your addresses

file.asc:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]
etc

2) You have the alias entry
my-mass-list::include:/path/to/file.asc

3) PHP sends one email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
4) The mail server (if it's any good), expands all the addresses from
file.asc and does the mass mailing...

Problem sorted?  The alias file (included) can easily be managed with PHP.
With a little tweaking, you can even include a script directly via the alias
file by using a | (pipe).  The script can go as far as to even get the list
of email addresses from a MySQL DB or something... You can do the script in
just about anything you want... Sh, Perl, PHP, Python, Java... Doesn't
really make a difference.

A pipe will actually give you better security, as you can verify the email
before actually sending out 100,000 odd copies of it.  Here, you can sign
the message with a PGP key via PHP for example.  If the key's do not match,
the script doesn't send the email (And obviously, you remove the key from
the email before sending it out from the piped script)

Anyways, that's how I would do it if I couldn't use mailman for whatever
reason.  IMHO, keeping as much of the mail on a mail server will drastically
improove the performance, because a mail server is made to
process/send/receive email, PHP is not ;-)

[PHP] Interesting.... :/

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

Some input much appreciated.  I upgraded mod_php4 from 4.2.3 to 4.3.2, and
needless to say, something went horribly wrong. PHP compiled without any
serious problems, and the installation seemed to have gone fine as well.
When issuing a apachectl restart, apache immediately core dumped... OOOPS.

Well, my attempts at debugging, so far, was very much unsuccessful...

[PHP] Re: usenet post on frebsd php port problem

[Chris Knipe]

Hi,

I know what the problem is, I also have no "cure" for it though - I'm still
investigating.

libcrypto (part of OpenSSL / SSH I believe) come standard with FreeBSD as
part of the source tree, installed in /usr/lib.  There you should have a
libcrypto.so.1 & 2.  SOMEWHERE a certain port also installs a libcrypto.so.4
in /usr/local/lib, and that is the culprit.  Where it comes from, I don't
know as of yet.

mod_php for some reason, links against the libcrypto.so.2 as well as
libcrypto.so.4 and those two libraries conflict and cause the core dump.  I
have reverted back to my old PHP (4.1.2) and it is still working fine now.
>From what I can see, it's only the newest PHP (4.3.2) that has this problem.
I should actually take some time to bring this to the attention of the port
maintainers, but as I said - I'm not 100% yet on what the 3rd port is in
question here (that installs libcrypto.so.4).

You can check what your PHP is linked against with ldd.  Basically, there
should only be one module type of each, and not 3 or 4 of the same (like I
had with libcrypto).

It's called SuEXEC in Apache and compiled in the core of Apache, it's not a
module.

What it does, it allows Apache to use the Group and User directives inside
virtual hosts.

For example:


  DocumentRoot /blah
  User cust001
  Group cust001


In this case, all files in /blah would be owned by cust001:cust001 and
permissions as strict as 0600 can be given on the files in the directory.
Apache's processes serving requests on this virutal host, will drop
permissions to user and group cust001 as specified in the configuration, so
apache would have access to read it.

In other virtualhosts, either the default user / group is used, or they are
specified uniquely in a per-virtualhost basis.  The other virtual hosts will
thus run with different uid/gid meaning that other virtualhosts will not be
able to include code in other virtualhosts, even when they know the paths.

Because Apache drop permissions to the user/group specified, they will not
have access to read/write/execute the included filename in a different
virtualhost.

Re: [PHP] How Can I Generate an Email List from a MySQL Table

[Chris Knipe]

$to = '';
while ($blah = mysql_fetch_row($ref)) {
  $to =+ $blah['address'];
};

Be careful however.  Most SMTP servers has a limit on the number of
recipients you can send one email to.  It's a very easy way to trigger spam
alerts and stuff.

Re: [PHP] why do i get this error please tell me?

[Chris Knipe]

 
> You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'order=1 WHERE ID='2'' at line
> 2

ORDER is a reserved word in MySQL.

Change the query and escape order aswell

'order'='1' WHERE ID='2'

Or, rename the order column to something else.

Not real sure if you *want* the PHP file interpreted or not, but if not,
try
this:

http://example.com/whatever.htm";) or die("Could not load

  echo implode('', $html);

You may (or may not) also want to use http://php.net/htmlentities to

[PHP] mysql_query() & mail() - something weird is going on !

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

I get a timeout on line 523 of my code (posted and marked below).  However,
I fail to see where the timeout is occurring, and even debugging
(mysql_error()) doesn't report anything wrong!

I'm baffled as to what exactly is causing this timeout  The code is
currently on Apache (Win32) with PHP 4.2.3.  When I move the code over to a
*nix system, it works perfectly via sendmail_path in php.ini, but when it
calls the SMTP server via a remote address, it fails.

The mail server's exim-3.36, receiver and sender verification has been
turned off.  The mail does go through the mail server.  I also tried
bouncing the messages through a local Exchange server, and the result of
this, is that the email get's additional headers that becomes part of the
body!

Line 523 is indicated with a **

[PHP] infinate loops

[Chris Knipe]

Lo,

Quite desperate now... Or at least, I'm starting to get there... Can anyone
perhaps see why this loop is not exiting???

$quit=$now;
$glet=getdate($row['RenewDate']);

// debug
echo "howlong: " . $howlong;

while($quit<$howlong) {

  // debug
  echo "quit: " . $quit . "";

  $quit=mktime(0, 0, 0, $glet['mon']+$row['BillPeriod'], $glet['mday'],
$glet['year']);
  $retl+=$row['Cost'];
  $glet=getdate($quit);
}


The values,

$now = 1036360800 (mktime())
$row['RenewDate'] = 1035928800 (MySQL DB - VARCHAR(12))
$row['Cost'] = xx.xx (MySQL DB - DOUBLE(6,2))

$howlong is defined further up
$howlong=mktime(0, 0, 0, $_POST['month'], 1, $_POST['year'])
where...
  0 < $_POST['month'] > 12
  2001 < $_POST['year'] > 2005

>From the debug (Browser output)...
howlong: 1133388000 - now: 1036023598 (RenewDate: 1036360800)
quit: 1036023598
quit: 1036360800
quit: 1036360800
quit: 1036360800

Thus, $quit is never incremented I'm *STUMPED* why not, or how to fix
this? :((  Each time, PHP times out (Script execution time exceeded), and it
*always* gives a line number for the timeout, that is inside the above while
loop.  Hence, to my understanding, the loop never exits

The loop, comes from cbms from voxel.net, stats.php

[PHP] Comparing array elements

[Chris Knipe]

hey everyone,

Does anyone have and ideas of wisdom on how to compare arrays (mysql result
sets) and group items based on if they exist in two or more arrays?

For example:

I have a table, with a list of servers:
server1
server2
server3
server4
server5
...
serverX

I have a table that specifies which of the servers are grouped:
group1
  server1
  server4
  server5

Now, I want to compare group1 against the server list, and do something like
the following:
In group:
  server1
  server4
  server5

Not in group:
  server2
  server3
  serverX

[PHP] Re: Comparing array elements

[Chris Knipe]

Hi Dan,

Close to what I want But no cigar just yet.  Thanks for the help, but I
think you mis-understood some parts of it.  First things first, on creating
the list of servers which is in a group - thanks, that works beautifully and
I got it working.  The query looks as follows:

SELECT monitorhosts.HostID FROM monitorhosts LEFT JOIN
monitorhostgroupdetails ON
 monitorhosts.HostID=monitorhostgroupdetails.HostID WHERE
monitorhostgroupdetails.HostGroupID='1';

The WHERE clause simply specify which group I want to extract a server list
for.

However, selecting the items not in a group, only returns items that is not
in a group AT ALL, and not all the items that isn't in a specific group as I
want...

Here's the layout of the two tables for you:

Items Table (+- 10,000 Records - monitorhosts)
+--+--+--+-+-+--
--+
| Field| Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra
|
+--+--+--+-+-+--
--+
| HostID   | tinyint(4)   |  | PRI | NULL|
auto_increment |
| CompanyID| tinyint(4)   |  | MUL | 0   |
|
+--+--+--+-+-+--
--+
2 rows in set (0.08 sec)

Groups Table (+- 10 Records - monitorhostgroupdetails)
+---+--+--+-+-++
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra  |
+---+--+--+-+-++
| HostGroupDetailID | mediumint(9) |  | PRI | NULL| auto_increment |
| HostID| mediumint(9) |  | MUL | 0   ||
+---+--+--+-+-++
3 rows in set (0.76 sec)

Now, I have 10,000 items.  1-1000 is assigned in group1, 500-1500 is
assigned to group2, and 1500-10,000 is in Group3.

I want to be able to use join queries, where I can take group1, generate a
list of all the items in the group, and then generate a list of items not in
group1.  The same goes for group2, group3, groupX.  Item's not in a group at
all, must also be returned... One item can also be assigned to more than one
group, which just adds to the complexity here I think :-(

Basically, I want anything that is in group1 and, the rest.

I've tried things like (to get items not in group1 for this example):
SELECT monitorhosts.HostID FROM monitorhosts LEFT JOIN
monitorhostgroupdetails ON
 monitorhosts.HostID=monitorhostgroupdetails.HostID WHERE
monitorhostgroupdetails.HostID <> '1' OR monitorhostgroupdetails.HostID IS
NULL;

But that doesn't return the desired result :(( Also seeing that the answer
to my question somehow lies in the LEFT / RIGHT JOIN statement, I went to
have a read in the manual about the function / syntax... I didn't understand
ANY of it :-( and I got a killer headache now as well, which just isn't
helping right now... *shrugs*

Any ideas?

[PHP] multiple selects and $_POST['vars']

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

How do you manage multiple selects and the data returned by the form?

All my attempts at doing this, only returned one variable from the selected
options, not all of them??

My test...


  
1
2
3
4
5
  


blah.php:
echo $_POST['bleh'];


$_POST['bleh'] would only have the value of the last selected option in the
form...

I've tried array_count_values as well to maybe see if PHP didn't save the
multiple selected items into a array, but it only reported back that
$_POST['bleh'] isn't a array.  So, if I select all 5 items in the above
form, why does PHP only return the last option I selected, and how do I get
it to return all the selected values?

Additionally,
if ($_POST['bleh'] == "") {

always fails Regardless if 1, 2, 3 or even all 5 of the options in the
form is selected (highlighted) Which, is *really* strange, seeing that
echo $_POST['bleh'] returns 1 out of the 5 selected values.

Re: [PHP] multiple selects and $_POST['vars'] MORE

[Chris Knipe]

Yeah, agreed there!!!

You're not supposed to specify a name on a option, just on the select
itself.  I've changed it now to use the array bit, and the form results
return it as a array as expected.

Thanks for all the help...  I think it's time to download a new copy of the
manual again... :)

^

You're not passing a value to the variable.  Try using something like: (i'm
NO java guru, and this definately isn't the list for java)...

function pop1($id) {
  window.open("info.php?prod_id=$id");
}

and



Where 12345 is the product ID that you assigned to variable prod_id, which
will in return be displayed in the second PHP file.  You're problem's
related to the java script, not assigning the value to the variable.  This
isn't a PHP issue.

That's normally how I do it...  I'm not to sure on which values you need to
do the comparison... It depends on what data you are returning from mysql I
think

Sorry I was too sleepy to realize the Red and BOLD wouldn't come through on

comment those section.

All right I've used the help that I've gotten before about this and edited
this function of code I have.  Initially the code was meant to mail out a
post to every email that was listed in the database.  The problem was that
it sent all the emails in the TO: section of the email.  Now being that I
didn't want to give out the emails of everyone on the list, I wanted to
instead hardcode the TO: section and then drop all of the emails from the
database into the BCC: section.  The problem being now I am getting a parse
error on lines 30.  Included are the original code and my version(which is
spitting the error).  If anyone can offer any insight as to what I'm missing
or messing up I should say it would be most appericated.

ORIGINAL SECTION OF MAIL FUNCTION:
function postNews () {
// Get input from form, and members name.
global $cookie_username, $headline, $post, $mail;
// check to see if we should send email.
if ($mail == "yes") {
global $setting_site_name, $setting_site_url, $setting_mail_email;
$fhandle = fopen("newstemps/mailpost.tmp", "r") or die("could not open
newstemps/mailpost.tmp");
$mailpost = fread($fhandle, filesize("newstemps/mailpost.tmp"));
fclose ($fhandle);

$mailpost = $mailpost;
$mailpost = str_replace("{setting_site_name}", $setting_site_name,

$mailpost = str_replace("{post_date}", date("M d, Y", time()), $mailpost);
$mailpost = str_replace("{post_post}", $post, $mailpost);

$to = "";
$query = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM members");
while ($member = mysql_fetch_array($query)) {
if ($to == "") {$to = $member['email'];}

}
$from = "from: " . $setting_mail_email;
mail ($to, $setting_site_name, $mailpost, $from) or $emailsuccess = "Failure
sending email.";
if ($emailsuccess == "") {$emailsuccess = "Email Sent Successfully.";}
}

MY MODIFIED SECTION (I've commented the sections I changed and also the line
with the parse error:)

Re: [PHP] convertion from string to time & substracting

[Chris Knipe]

Talking under correction, but you'll be better of using a TIME column in
MySQL.  You can also do all the calculations with MySQL's build in time
functions already, which will save you allot of time, seeing that all the
calculations can be done via a single SQL query.

--  add a mysql_error() here to see if the SELECT actually executes and
retrieve any data back from MySQL.  That LIKE '%$expression%' looks a bit
funny to me - it might be worth your while to debug it properly.  If it
doesn't return any errors and the query is just empty, you can make sure it
has data before running the while () loop, by using something like:

if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) {

> while ($line = mysql_fetch_array($result)) {
>$startTime   = $linea["startTime"];
^  If it's copied and pasted, there's
your error $linea 
>$stopTime= $line["stopTime"];
> }
> 
}

If it's not, it's *rather* parculiar why it's not working...  Myself, and
allot of other people on here use TIME / DATETIME columns all the time with
very good success rates...

> If the fields are CHAR or VARCHAR I got no problem, but if a use a TIME
type

Which, just makes me think even more that your SQL statement's LIKE clause
isn't right

> I get the following error:
> "Warning: Supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result resource in
> /var/www/text.php on line XX"

Which, tells me that your SQL statement isn't returning any data.  If you
change the columns to TIME types, and execute the query manualy via mysql,
SELECT * FROM tableName WHERE field LIKE '%09:00%';  Does the SQL statement
actually work, without any errors back from MySQL?? I think you're
$expression, needs to be more like WHERE field LIKE '$expression%' (if
$expression contains a hour), or LIKE '%$expression' if $expression contains
a minute.  Escaping the $expression might also be beneficiul, I'm not sure
if it is required, but I normally do it as a standard way of coding: WHERE
field LIKE '" . $expression . "%'.

Another possible thing you can try, is to debug it mysql_error() is very
helpfull, trust me on this.  I also started off implementing mysql lookups
without error checking and posted rather silly mistakes to the list which
could have easily been avoided just debugging the code properly (not that
I'm not saying you don't have a serious problem here, or that I'm taking on
anything personal or anything) - just merly making a observation...

You're LIKE clause is wrong / invalid

If $expression holds an HOUR field, it should be LIKE '$expression%';

if $expression holds a MINUTE field, it should be LIKE '%$expression';

having a LIKE '%$expression%' WILL NOT work... The % in a LIKE clause,
indicates that MySQL should have data BEFORE and AFTER $expression in the
column before it will be returned.  Because it's a TIME column, and the way
in which you use $expression, it will either have only a % (additional data)
before, or after $expression, or NOT AT ALL.

So, the three options you have for this

WHERE field LIKE '%$expression'  /  WHERE field LIKE '$expression%'  /
WHERE field='$expression'

That's the only three options you have from what I see here... I've tested
all of this just now, and they all work wonderfully.

[PHP] persistent connections

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

Is there anyway to "manage" persistent connections to MySQL?

I've started using them on various of my sites (mysql_pconnect instead of
mysql_connect - as in the documentation), but after a few hours, I notice
that the connections just keeps on getting more and more and more.

Eventually, the entire server crawls to a standstill and I have to restart
mysql to speed up the system...

Any ideas?

[PHP] mysql_real_escape_string() ?

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

Does mysql_real_escape_string exist?  I've seen it in the manual pages, and
to my understanding, it is the proper function to call on strings to escape
them before inserting them into a database...

I've used it as follows:
 $text[1] = mysql_real_escape_string($text[1]);
 $details[0] = mysql_real_escape_string($details[0]);
 $url[1] = mysql_real_escape_string($url[1]);

However, it returns a error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: mysql_real_escape_string() in
D:\temp\grabnews.php on line 32

Now what???

This would be:

Which is your fault.

needs to change to

i.e., the space.

A simply mysql_error, or even echo $sql before you did the query would have

Re: [PHP] Mail() function

[Chris Knipe]

No you cant.

All Received:, Date:, Message-ID headers are added to the message at the
SMTP server...  Hence, any halfly decent configured SMTP server will *always*
add those headers to *any* message.

If you have administration over the SMTP server, you can with allot of 
tweaking configure the SMTP server to remove the headers after it was added
if, for instance, the sender is httpd@localhost.  However, the next SMTP
server that the message is forwarded to, will just add them again in anycase.

Care to show the headers?  I'm just curious as to how the messages are
actually produced.  You have to keep in mind, that by doing something like 
this, the chances are really good that the majority of your email will NOT
be delivered to its final destinations.

Allot of SMTP servers does quite a bit of sanity checking on the headers
received from an email message.  They must, for example, include proper
Received By (which is what is used for tracking the email), To:, From:, 
BCC:, etc headers.  Without these, or with malformed headers, many SMTP 
servers will reject and bounce the email.  You'll need to be *very* carefull
in doing something like this.

If you don't understand in very much details how SMTP works, and how SMTP 
servers delivers email, I'd suggest you do not attempt to tamper with it.
 
> is there know way to build a php smtp server ?

PHP can't run a script in a daemon that I am aware of, so the short awnser is
definately no.  If you want a PHP script to simply send a message to a SMTP 
server, then sure, there is the mail() function, or you can open a socket
to port 25 of the mail server.  However, as I stated above, if you do not
include proper headers (which identifies the email and make the email 
trackable), most SMTP servers will immediately reject the email.

Can you show the message body?  MIME isn't related to the headers that
directly.  Propper syntax of the body of the message is more important, and is
more than likely where your fault lies.

I just had a look through some of my source  Here's what I use.. 

  /***

A simple search on google / phpclasses.org should reveal the tarbal.

That's not how MIME based email bodies start.

This will give an error, because the message is not defined as a propper MIME
type.

I'm not 100% sure of the exact correct syntax of MIME based email now, but
a look at the RFCs.  A nice quick hack to get the propper syntax, send yourself
a HTML based email from OE or a similar mail client, and view the source of
the generated email message.

You need things like

--- message type="mime/type" type="application/x-shockwave ---
--- next part="lbahb lah" ---

etc etc etc.

So yes, you're problem is that your email's not properly formated.  Search
arround a bit, read some fine manuals, and make some examples of MIME based
email messages from clients that you know works properly (such as OE).

Then, go back, format your message body properly, and it should all work very
nicely

[PHP] safe_mode

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,

Does anyone have some examples, ideas, or references on how to setup php's
safe_mode operation so that I can provide a reasonably secure environment for
hosting php3 and php4 (public web sites, with public users).

This is for a public type hosting environment, so I'll definately need to 
protect the servers from malicious code (such as exec(rm... ), and everything
else that goes with it... 

Any pointers or web sites that may be of help will be appreciated
tremendiously.

Mail from [EMAIL PROTECTED] may be your problem, if the ISP is doing sender
address verification (which is more than likely the case).

Try sending the mail from a valid exisiting email address, and see if that
may help you.

I'll have a look at it...

I'd definitely need something that is server side however.  People doing PHP
code, and hosting it on these "clusters" do not even know that their sites
are on clusters.  The content is uploaded on servers that do not even have
web servers on them, all sorts of very nifty advance stuff.

By your reply however, I take it simply using a "shared" directory for
session data isn't going to work?

I can't really agree with that (Although, you are more than likely right
It just sounds fishy for me that you can set two variables to the same value
inside a if statement, when a if statement is in fact there to rather
compare information - sort of, like a read-only state for the variables?)...
I'll keep my code here, and add / remove some debugging, and just let you
and the other's see what is actually going on here in regards to what
information the variables is actually caring and comparing...

Just to clarify myself above...
if ($var1 = $var2) { .

In my crazy head, I see $var1 and $var2 to be in a sort of "read-only" state
inside the () of the if statement.  For a if statement to be able to change
the values in that instance, would be wrong for me.  Afterall, the logic of
a if statement does go something in the lines of "if value equals value then
execute this, else, execute that" etc etc etc There's nothing in that
logic of setting or changing any values ?

Back to the matter at hand tho...

while ($VerifyPassword = mysql_fetch_array($PasswordCheckSQL)) {

echo "Session: " . $_SESSION['ContactID'] . ", DataBase: " .
$VerifyPassword[ContactID];
// In the browser, they are both returned as 1
//  Both the session and contact IDs are looked up from the same database,
through two
// different functions, they are the number from a auto_increment columb in
a table. And yes
// there is only one row in the table currently, the original selection is
done via a WHERE
// claues, and because there is only one row, both the $_SESSION and
$VerifiyPassword
// should thus return the same row number (auto_increment) because there is
only one
// row in the table?

  // Compare UserIDs
  if ($VerifyPasword[ContactID] = $_SESSION['ContactID']) {
$_SESSION['Authenticated'] = "True";
$AuthenticationFailure = "False";
// In this example, the if statement will exit here (which is
where it should exit)
  } else {
 $_SESSION['Authenticated'] = "False";
 $AuthenticationFailure = "True";
  }


// Now let's look at how I understand the if statement to be, and what
happens.  This is now,
// after I have confirmed above with the echo, that the two variables are in
fact the same...
if ($VerifyPassword[ContactID] == $_SESSION['ContactID']) {
  echo "they are the same";
} else {
  echo "if statement lied, and reported them as not being the same";
  // statement exists here.
}

if (($VerifyPassword[ContactID]) == ($_SESSION['ContactID'])) {
  echo "they are the same";
} else {
  echo "if statement lied, and reported them as not being the same";
  // statement exists here.
}

if (!($VerifyPassword[ContactID] == $_SESSION['ContactID'])) {
  echo "they are not the same";
  // statement exists here.
} else {
  echo "the same";
}

// Now, I force the data to not be the same...
$_SESSION['ContactID'] = "1000";
if ($VerifyPassword[ContactID] == $_SESSION['ContactID']) {
  echo "if statement lied, and reported them as being the same";
  // Statement exists here.
} else {
  echo "they are not the same";
}

What, on heavens name, is going on here :P  I'm not going to ditch PHP or
anything like that, I know that it definately is something that I am doing
wrong.  The problem is, I don't know what I'm doing wrong.  99.99% if all my
statements used in my PHP applications, uses == or === (if I know 100% that
I am comparing data of the same type).  This one specific one, refuses to
operate :-(  And it's starting to annoy me now very much to say the
least :-(

[PHP] How *not* to assume MySQL will return data?

[Chris Knipe]

Hiya all,

Stock standard, and from most of the examples I've seen, standard MySQL
lookups via PHP utlises a while look to retrieve the data.  All very nice
and well yes... But what if there is no data?

Here's a little example of what I want to do...

// Check for inportaint notices for the contact.
echo "\n";
echo "  \n";
echo "\n";
echo "  Important notes:\n";
echo "\n";
echo "  \n";
$SQL = mysql_query("SELECT MessageID, MessageTitle FROM contactmessages
WHERE ContactID='" . $_SESSION['ContactID'] . "' AND MessageRead='n';");
while ($ContactMessageList = mysql_fetch_array($SQL)) {
  echo "  \n";
  echo "\n";
  echo "" .
$ContactMessageList['MessageTitle'] . "\n";
  echo "  \n";
}
echo "\n";
echo "\n";

>From this example, this "block" would be printed evertime.  Whether the
contact has actual messages or not.  How would I go about in a instance like
this, to use a MySQL check and only print the block if $SQL will actually
return data ?

In this case, can I do something like...

if ($SQL = mysql_query("something") {
  print the block
  while (do the actualy mysql lookup) {
print data
  }
}

Spanks everyone :)

Re: [PHP] How *not* to assume MySQL will return data?

[Chris Knipe]

H.

There's no way to do it *without* having to submit two queries to the
database?  I'm thinking load wise here. The query (or block), would be
displayed on every single page in my app - sort of like a shared border type
thing...

Now, when I have say, 20 pages in the site, 250 concurrent users (or active
sessions) on the site - which, can happy very quickly - the load on the
database is going to be -very- high   So I'm kind of looking for a way
how I can do this, with as few queries as possible, to put as little stress
on the database as I can...

But yes, if there is no otherway to do it, then I guess this would have to
do

Re: [PHP] Combine 2 Db Columns with an Array?

[Chris Knipe]

This is SQL not PHP

You should be doing something like

SELECT COLUMB + CLOLUM AS Something, SomethingElse, AnotherSomethingElse
FROM TABLE

Then you can reference Something as a normal colum in any database table
Such as echo $Something...

I'm not to sure about the syntax, have a look through the mysql manuals...
It is mentioned there, with examples.

[PHP] Expiring certain session data while keeping the session itself

[Chris Knipe]

Hiya, me again :-)

Is it possible to expire certain session data, while still keeping the
session itself in tact?

Example...

$_SESSION['AlwaysTrue'] = "True";
$_SESSION['ExpireThis'] = "10:20:00";

At 10:19:50 the session is registered.  AlwaysTrue must remain True for as
long as the session itself is true (as specified in the documentation - this
would be until the browser is closed, or after a certain amount of inactive
time).

However, at 10:20:00 (10 seconds later), I want the ExpireThis value of the
session, to be destroyed, without having to de-register the entire session
(this would then also destroy the AlwaysTrue value...

Am I right in presuming this cannot be done, and I'll have to come up with
my own little function to do this with?  If so, how can I see at what time a
session variable was written, or would I need to register the time that the
session variable was set to the session as well?  For instance

$_SESSION['AlwaysTrue'] = "True";
$_SESSION['ExpireThis'] = "10:20:00";
$_SESSION['ExpireThisTime'] = "10:19:50";

Then, just do a comparison, and if ExpireThisTime is past 10:20:00, then
just delete that one variable...

There's no easier / better way to do this ??

Basically, I'm needing something like this to bring down the number of
possible database queries.  I have a application which will have new
information in a database, every 75 seconds.  The queries are performed on
every single page that a user is logged in to on a site.  To make sure that
the same queries is not issued over and over on the database, I want to
implement some sort of caching where I will only need to do another query
after the database received new information (every 75 seconds).  It's all
numbers (integers), so I was thinking It may well work if I can save
these values to session data, and then just "refresh" the session data every
75 seconds  The problem is, there's lots of other information saved to
the session as well, which I cannot afford to loose with a possible
session_destroy()..

[PHP] Working with ip addresses and address space

[Chris Knipe]

Hi all,

anyone know of any good pre-written classes or functions to work with IP
address space?

I'm looking for things which can verify correct notation of IP addresses
(fine, that's easy enough), but also verify things like network addresses,
broadcast addresses, and work out subnet masks when a start and end IP
address is given...

Any ideas?  I'm sure I can just write my own... But it's going to save me
allot of time if something like this is out there already for me to use.

[PHP] LDAP, Active Directory, and permissions

[Chris Knipe]

Hi,

I've found various sources and are successfully manipulating Active
Directory from PHP on our Domain Controller - frankly, things works much
better than I expected :)

I have now reached the point where I need to set permissions on objects in
Active Directory, i.e. to restrict read permissions to certain OUs and
objects within the directory (mainly related to Exchange stuff).

Is there anything in PHP which can be used to set permissions on AD
objects?  I haven't found any reference to doing this anywhere, so I thought
I'd give it a chance here... If not, then I suppose I'll have to code some
..NET application to act as a gateway between the PHP interface and Active
Directory, but naturally I would like to do as much as possible from within
PHP itself.

Many thanks,

1) Not sure.  The permissions I'm after is similar to that of NTFS
permissions on the file system.  Essentially, it is a way to restrict an
application to read certain OU's or Objects completely, making it invisible.
FYI... http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc785913(WS.10).aspx

2) This is completely irrelevant to authentication.  See point 1 above.

Na-uh.  You want 0.0.0.0/0, which is valid. 0.0.0.0/24 isn't valid.

[PHP] A little confused

[Chris Knipe]

Hi All,

$_SESSION['ExpiryDate'] = "2013-04-23";
echo date_format($_SESSION['ExpiryDate'], "D, \t\h\e jS \o\f M Y");

Required Result: Mon, the 23rd of Apr 2013

I get however:  PHP Warning:  date_format() expects parameter 1 to be
DateTime, integer given in

I've had a look at the date/time function list, but I cannot seem to find
any way to convert $_SESSION['ExpiryDate'] to an DateTime??

Re: [PHP] A little confused

[Chris Knipe]

Yes,

strtotime() does convert the $_SESSION value to a unix epoc, as expected.
However, date_format still complains that the argument is a Integer value,
instead of a DateTime.

Re: [PHP] A little confused

[Chris Knipe]

Thanks for the replies guys - figured it out!

Using date() directly with strtotime() and the appropriate formating works
:)

date("D, \\t\h\e jS \o\\f M Y", strtotime($_SESSION['ExpiryTime']))

[PHP] something stupid... split().

[Chris Knipe]

Lo all,
echo ConvertTime($AcctSessionTime/90); # Returns: 03:17:46.77
I am trying to drop the .whatever..  Thus,
list($Duration, $none) = split('.', ConvertTime($AcctSessionTime/90), 2);
However, $Duration is empty, and $none has the whole string from 
ConvertTime  As I said, something silly ;)

Thanks for the help.

[PHP] round?

[Chris Knipe]

Hi,
I'm not sure if round() is what I am after.  I want to round whole numbers 
to the closest 10 - thus, not decimals, etc.

For example.
11.23 = 10
14.76 = 10
15.23 = 20
18.53 = 20
Thanks,

Now, from the LDD, why would PHP link against libmysqlclient.so.14 (for
5.0-ALPHA of mysqlclient), AS WELL AS libmysqlclient.so.10 (which was an
older 3.x version).  so.10 doesn't even exist on my system anymore... And
yes, I tried symlinking, it is looking for references which doesn't exist in
so.14

Uhm, am I stupid, or is something broken??

[PHP] Troublesome Code.

[Chris Knipe]

Lo everyone,
Can someone please perhaps just indicate to me what is wrong with the below 
code?  I am getting SQL Result errors, but all the queries executes 
successfully.

Errors in browser:

Authentication Required.

Below is the code with explanations...

 if (!isset($_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'])) {
   header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Cenergy Dialup Admin"');
   header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
   WritePageStart("Error - Authentication Required", "", "");
   echo "Authentication Required.";
   WritePageEnd();
   exit;
 } else {
   $SQL = mysql_query("SELECT RadiusAdmin.isWIFI AS isWIFI, 
RadiusAdmin.isPPTP AS isPPTP, RadiusAdmin.isDIAL AS isDIAL, 
RadiusAdmin.MinTokens AS MinTokens, RadiusAdmin.TokenCost AS TokenCost, 
RadiusAdmin.CustID AS CustID, RadiusAdmin.Realm AS Realm, SMTPZones.EntryID 
AS ZoneID, RadiusAdmin.Username AS AccountName, RadiusAdmin.Tokens AS 
Tokens, RadiusAdmin.Balance AS Balance FROM RadiusAdmin LEFT JOIN SMTPZones 
ON RadiusAdmin.Realm=SMTPZones.Zonename  WHERE RadiusAdmin.Username='" . 
$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] . "' AND RadiusAdmin.Password=MD5('" . 
$_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_PW'] . "') LIMIT 1");

^^^ Line 10.  Query does execute successfully, and returns 1 Row.
   if (mysql_num_rows($SQL) == 1) {
^^ Line 11 (I also tried == "1" to no avail).
 while ($Data = mysql_fetch_array($SQL)) {
   $_SESSION['Username'] = $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'];
   $_SESSION['CustID'] = $Data['CustID'];
   $_SESSION['ZoneID'] = $Data['ZoneID'];
   $_SESSION['Realm'] = $Data['Realm'];
   $_SESSION['AccountName'] = $Data['AccountName'];
   $_SESSION['Tokens'] = $Data['Tokens'];
   $_SESSION['TokenCost'] = $Data['TokenCost'];
   $_SESSION['MinTokens'] = $Data['MinTokens'];
   $_SESSION['isDIAL'] = $Data['isDIAL'];
   $_SESSION['isPPTP'] = $Data['isPPTP'];
   $_SESSION['isWIFI'] = $Data['isWIFI'];
   $_SESSION['Balance'] = $Data['Balance'];
 }
 $SQL = mysql_query("UPDATE RadiusAdmin SET LastAccess=NOW() WHERE 
Username='" . $_SERVER['PHP_AUTH_USER'] . "'");
   } else {
 header('WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Cenergy Dialup Admin"');
 header('HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized');
 This generates the last two errors - hence, my problem is at line 
10 & 11?
 WritePageStart("Error", "", "");
 echo "Authentication Required.";
 WritePageEnd();
 exit;
   }
 }

Thanks,
Chris.

Re: [PHP] Re: Troublesome Code.

[Chris Knipe]

Had a fault in some globally included mysql structures... I don't know how 
this happened, but my mysql_select_db seemed to have dissapeared.  Thus 
there was no database initialised, and hence all the queries actually did 
not complete.

I sorted it out - it's all working now :)  Thanks for the suggestions 
everyone.

Err, this is just the query string variable right? So you need to do:
$sth = mysql_query ($SQL);
If (mysql_num_rows ($sth) == 1)
Then you will be checking the result set and not just the query string.

[PHP] Declaring vars as INT ?

[Chris Knipe]

Hi,

Uhm... Let's take the below quickly:

Function DoSomething($Blah) {
  $Blah = (int) $Blah;
  return $Blah
} 

$Blah, cannot be larger than 2147483647, and sometimes, I get negative
integers back from the above function.

This is with PHP 4.4.0 on FreeBSD 5.4-STABLE.  Can anyone else perhaps
confirm this, and if it is indeed true, is this a bug, or a limitation
somewhere on PHP?  Any other ways to confirm that *large* numbers, are
indeed integers?  I'm working with numbers in the form of mmddsss
(20051025001 for today for example)

Thanks,
Chris.
