Did you tell php.ini to load this extension, and then restart your webserver?

[PHP] Feasability of Serial functions and constantly running progrms
After upgrading to RedHat 8.0 and effectively breaking some python caller-id script that I have no clue how to fix.. I'm curious of whether or not PHP would be able to get caller-id data from a modem.. I imagine it could, and probably won't be too difficult to overcome... but I am posing that question just to get any feedback of any problems.. What the real question is about... is there any solid way of keeping a PHP script running (to latch onto the modem and constantly monitor it, of course...) and have it run without it crying about too much memory being used or being run too long.

[PHP] Too all who are stuck with PHP/Apache2 under RH8
Just a quick reiteration of something I found that probably most people already know.. but since I went through the painstaking trouble of removing the PHP and Apache RPMs and building them from scratch (I hate building sources), I wanted to make sure this is out there. If you're having problems getting any PHP code to parse and you ususally use ... In the /etc/php.ini file change the short_open_tag variable to On That's all there is to it.. lol Also, you might wanna find the extention=mysql.so and uncomment that, since it's commented by default Credit goes out to the people who have previously posted this, but it's been a while since it's been said recently, I just thought I'd help out. --Jason -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Error with file upload: "No file uploaded in Unknown on line 0"
I have some code that a user can set a description about an item to be posted, and then add some image files of the item. Its a 3x3 frame of fields, along with an 'include' line for each one.. only selecting a file with the 'Browse' button, or entering a website manually will trigger this include.. Of course, there aren't always going to be 9 images to upload, so sometimes they have to be left blank ... everytime I submit something without all 9 entries filled, I get a bunch of lines in my error log like the following: [error] PHP Notice: No file uploaded in Unknown on line 0 Is there something I can do to combat this? It's quite annoying to see up to 9 of these lines everytime I submit something from my page. I don't want to turn off all error reporting or anything like that, either... I'd like to see something that'll make it a non-error. Thanks! -Jason Young -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Re: Cronjob
I can't say I'm really too familiar with the php commandline.. You're using /usr/bin/php (or equivalent) and attempting to use your exec() that way? If you do 'php -?' you'll get a list of commands that you can use, and I don't see a way to pass cmdline arguments as variables.. Having said that, I Just went and looked further into it.. if I make a test script, and at the top I put: $hi = $argv[1]; then $hi becomes whatever you've specified as the first argument.. I'm assuming this is what you want? To clarify: phpfile.php contains: Running the command "php -f phpfile.php test" returns "test" Does this help at all?? -Jason Daren Cotter wrote: > Jason, > > I'm not using a web script any longer, I'm using > command-line (I determined that it is installed on the > server). > > I read about $argc and $argv, but when I call the > script passing two arguments, both $argc and $argv are > blank.

[PHP] Another odd file problem / Limit on File uploads?
Hey yet again...
I've got a 3x3 grid of type 'file' input elements, for a nifty total of
9 upload spaces..
After specifying a file in all 9, and attempting upload, I only got 5..
I noticed the total filesize was 2 megs, so I changed the php.ini to 8..
yet I still got that problem. So I checked how my file array was being
posted, and it turns out only 5 of them go through!
Hopefully someone can follow this particular code...
In the HTML Form, we have:
Include
Include
.
Include
(The picInc array just allows them to set whether or not they really
want that picture included (in case they mess up and don't want to
upload such a pic - I wouldn't expect some of the users to be savvy
enough to know to just delete the text from the field))
In the PHP upload, to check to see which elements are being parsed, I have:
$current = 0;
while (list($key) = each($_FILES['picname'])) {
echo $current;
/* -- This is the normal code just to satisfy everyone's curiosity.
if ($picInc[$current] == true) {
if (!is_dir($dir))
mkdir($dir);
if (!is_uploaded_file ($_FILES['picname']['tmp_name'][$current]))
echo "" . $_FILES['picname']['name'][$current] . "
couldn't be copied!";
if (is_uploaded_file ($_FILES['picname']['tmp_name'][$current])) {
move_uploaded_file($_FILES['picname']['tmp_name'][$current],
$dir.$current.".jpg");
$log_query = "INSERT INTO pictures (pictureID, series) VALUES
('$pID', '$current')";
$log_result = mysql_query($log_query) or die ("Couldn't Insert
Picture Record!");
}
}
*/ -- End curiosity mode ;-)
$current++;
}
On my output, I just get 01234 .. 5 elements.
My question is specifically on how to get all 9 to upload, those 5

Re: [PHP] Re: Another odd file problem / Limit on File uploads?
Sure..
post_max_size = 10M
upload_max_filesize = 8M
memory_limit = 8M
As I said before, however.. even without throwing files there, my loop
test code only spits out '01234', meaning that its only looping 5 times
through the code before exiting... Does file handling only allow for 5
files at a time??

Re: [PHP] Re: Another odd file problem / Limit on File uploads?
Well... you asked for it :D Here's the code: Key: When the user puts the URL or clicks the "Browse" button, they're required to hit the "Show Picture" button. This puts that picture into the 'pic[]' img space, and enables picInc[]. I didn't bother putting the javascript function picShow in here, because that works and doesn't cause problems. I'm about to leave work at this very moment so I apologize for not cleaning up the table tags beforehand.. I need to get out of here.. lol Include Include Include Include Include Include Include Include Include As I said before, its not even a problem with the pictures themselves.. as I noted in my PHP code earlier, I looped through it just printing the current $_FILES index it was working on, and it stops at 4 (the fifth file) no matter what... Other people have mentioned that their 5+ file uploads work just fine... I don't think I've done anything different between picname[4] and picname[5]... --Jason Paul Nicholson wrote: > -BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- > Hash: SHA1 > > Hey, > AFAIK, There is no "limit" on the amount of files that can be uploaded at > once.

[PHP] $_FILES posting limited to 5?
I'm going to approach this question in a different way, in case some people were put off by the complexity of it yesterday. For all those who don't know my question from yesterday, I have a form where I can upload up to 9 files at a time. Unfortunately, only the first 5 of those files are being uploaded at any given time. As a test, I just created a simple form with only input type 'file's, and attempted to find out how many its attempting to parse. It is still only 5.

BEAUTIFUL!
This was the problem... it wasn't that there was a limit of 5 maximum
uploads, it was just that my 'while' statement was only counting as many
fields as the first sub-array for $_FILES.. which is 5.

[PHP] Problem with fputs/fgets
I'm in the process of writing a very very simple web-based email client,
just for my personal use, so I can perm-delete all the spam that comes
in through the day on my home account before i get home.
On the very first connect, its great.. connects, does a 'uidl' which
lists all the mail ID's (the 'else' part of the if statement below)
The problem lies where I click the generated link and attempt to read a
message, the browser load just hangs (despite the set_time_limit()) and
when I cancel it, the server tells me there's another connection active.
I have an fputs($pop, "QUIT\r\n); as well as an fclose($pop); ..
Shouldn't this be sufficient to make sure the connection is closed
before my visit to trying to read a message? Or is that not the problem?
I'm thinking its something with the actual ($action == "read") code..
but... what would it be?
Thanks for all help!

$list = substr($list, 4, strpos($list, " ", 3));

[PHP] Re: upload files
I'm not sure of the backwards compatibility, but if you're running PHP
4.2.x (I think? Maybe it came in earlier) .. use the $_FILES global
variable, in place of $HTTP_POST_FILES. The array is exactly the same:
$_FILES[name_of_file][attributes]
Hopefully this helps?

Apologies if I'm being too simplistic here, but make sure that your first page's form elements have something similar to: And of course.. that your POST data is being grabbed accordingly by the first page to be able to set those variables.

Currently I have the form going to the previous page with a custom error message, but am having a problem with getting the fields filled in.

[PHP] Code Advice
I (think I) have come up with an interesting little solution for pages
that have/can potentially have a lot of get vars, and I just wanted to
throw it by everyone to see if I know what I'm talking about...
Instead of having a whole bunch of ...
"if (isset($_GET['var']))
$var = $_GET['var']"
.. lines on top of each page.. does this code look feasable to you?
-
$get_allow = array('foo', 'bar', 'add', 'takeovertheworld');
while (list($key,$val)=each($get_allow))
{
if (isset($_GET[$key]))
$$key = $val;
}
-
It SEEMS to work so far, I just don't want to throw this into a
production environment if something's all screwy, so I figure I'll get a
few hundred pairs of eyes..
I'm sure someone else probably thought of such a thing, I was just tired
of having a page of 'if $_GET''s everywhere, and its scalable with just
adding a word to the array, instead of two new lines.
Any potential bugs?

Re: [PHP] Code Advice
Hmm..
So then can anyone tell me why its working so far? ;)
I am trying out every single function in this page in hopes to catch
something, but so far I don't see any breakage - I can see there are a
few ways to skin this cat.. the original code I posted DOES work.. I
still may be blind to any future breakings.. that's why I posted it.
Unfortunately, I'm getting responses saying that this code won't work
at all - when it does.. :-/

Subject: Re: [PHP] Code Advice
All I have to go by is what I see. The method was this..
$get_allow = array('foo', 'bar', 'add', 'takeovertheworld');
while (list($key,$val)=each($get_allow))
{
if (isset($_GET[$key]))
$$key = $val;
}
?>
The array $get_allow has numerical indicies. Looping through
that in the
method described is going to set an integer to $key. So your
first error is
going to be that $_GET[0] is Undefined. Second error is
going to be $$key
is an invalid variable name.
Mea culpa -- you're quite right, and I should read more carefully! (Well, it is 7pm and going home time)
This should, of course, be done like this:
$get_allow = array(..);
foreach ($get_allow as $key):
if (isset($_GET($key)):
$$key = $_GET[$key];
endif;
endforeach;
Cheers!

Re: [PHP] Code Advice
I just saw that post... I feel completely stupid at this point, might I point out. You're right - register_globals is by default 'on' on this particular server I"m working on (I don't do a lot of PHP work on it), cuz its an older version and I haven't been bothered enough to upgrade it... I haven't tested it on something that has register_globals set to on. So yes.. indeed my code did absolutely nothing. Who wants to hire me? hah. Thanks for all the help, though.. I definately learned a few things and got some decent code in return to fiddle with! Thanks to all, apologies for the brain-death. -Jason Ernest E Vogelsinger wrote: At 20:40 06.11.2002, Jason Young spoke out and said: [snip] register_globals is definately off..

You don't get an error because you do not access the variable name directly - at least not the variable your code generates (which is $0, $1, $2, etc). If you did you'd get a decent parser error - but unfortunately your data hides behind these identifiers. If register_globals is off I have absolutely no idea why you still have them available.

[PHP] Lynx/Apache PHP execution vs. PHP interpreter
I've got a CallerID program that I've found on Freshmeat.net (elcid, for those keeping track)... I've edited the reporting functions so that instead of throwing it up on the console like it normally does, it instead calls lynx with the -dump parameter to the PHP page, and that in turn puts the variables into a DB... (Basically I can access my full CallerID information from anywhere) My question is ... is there any difference for me to call system() to lynx, or for me to call the PHP interpreter directly? I've noticed a lot of lag time between the phone ringing, and the data being reflected on the report page (between 7 - 10 full seconds) .. Now I know for a fact that the elcid program is partly at 'fault' as far as a delay in displaying the info from the modem (developer is looking into it as time allows, from what I hear) .. but I know it wasn't 7-10 seconds. Of course, I'd try it myself and see if there's any improvement, but I'm short on time and don't have enough people to bother to say "Hey call me back real quick" .. and besides, no sense editing and recompiling C code if there's no difference :-D Insight, as always, is very appreciated.

[PHP] Re: arg parsing
This is a common upgrader's 'register_globals' confusion problem ;-) Basically what it means is that arbitrary values are not parsed in a GET-type request, like your action=new. You must explicitly ask for them.. *I* personally use this (I'm sure others will follow up with their code) at the top of my files: if ($_GET['action']) // $_GET[] is the superglobal for GET requests $action = $_GET['action']; Hope this clears it up! -Jason Phil wrote: Apologies for revisting any old ground but I am not able to resolve this.

[PHP] CLI [Lack of] Performance on Windows
I'm not much for running PHP on Windows, but I thought that many of the performance issues had been worked out... However, I'm trying to run a PHP through CLI and having a terrible experience with speed. This is running Windows Server 2008 (with a Quad-Core Intel, 4 GB of RAM). My problem in particular is a small script that bzread()s from a large-ish (104 MB) file, and throws some data into a sqlite db. It's not really hitting any resource limits that I know of - the PHP process isn't even using 3% CPU, and RAM usage is minimal... it's just... slow. It's not even just this script. It's not doing it now, but when I was playing around with it last night, it was taking quite a bit to execute small echo statements from reading stdin from the php process (although 'php -qa' doesn't exhibit this behavior) Anyway, Windows processes about 4,000 rows per minute, while Linux does 10.6K. I know I shouldn't expect much out of the platform, but this just straight CLI, I figured it would be at least respectably similar. Any insight?

[PHP] Getting backtrace through GDB?
Hi all, I'm trying to follow the instructions for getting a GDB backtrace from the PECL site ( http://bugs.php.net/bugs-generating-backtrace.php ). For some reason, I'm not getting any symbol output when I try to generate the backtrace, it simply gives me the memory address and '??'. I'm using a clean install of PHP, and I've specified --enable-debug in the configure script (which I know works, since PHP will identify and print memory leaks). Has anyone else had any trouble with this and found a solution? I'd really like to get generate these so I can better help the PECL developer this is needed for.

Re: [PHP] this has got me baffled: imagesx() andimagesy()reporting the wrong size?
Indeed. Using ImageMagick's 'identify' command, the first layer is 30x24 on a 32x32 canvas. radioactive-bread-eek.gif[0] GIF 30x24 32x32+2+6 8-bit PseudoClass 256c 2.11kb radioactive-bread-eek.gif[1] GIF 32x27 32x32+0+4 8-bit PseudoClass 256c 2.11kb If getimagesize() works on the canvas, then you might want to use that, instead. gd and gifs don't really have a steady relationship, anyway. Ashley Sheridan wrote: It does indeed seem to be some sort of bug. I've just tested it with your image on my machine here and for imagesx() and imagesy() it gives 30 and 24 respectively. getimagesize() does return the correct dimensions though. The same image saved as a flat single layer gif from the Gimp behaves exactly the same way. This might not be a proper bug as such, as the image itself might be 32x32, but the first layer (the first frame in the animated version) is 30x24 when you remove the dead, unused, transparent background. Perhaps GD is meant to report on the *actual* size of the image, rather than the dimensions of the frame?

[PHP] Merging two partially-transparent images results in black pixels
Hello, I have an image that uses partial transparency for borders and such. At first, I tried using the whole image; creating a truecolor 'holder' image, then imagecopymerge-ing it, but that resulted in the outside transparent areas (the ones that would instead show the 'holder' image) were black, while the portions of transparency on the inside (these are rounded-squares) that had actual other images below them were white. Then, I made two images. One having the outside transparency, and setting imagesavealpha to make it work as intended... then adding the needed images, then adding the 'window'-type transparent image on top. This gives the best result, but the 'window' image also has partial transparency, and is instead showing in black. I'm pretty much at wit's end. Everything's imagecopymerge'd, I've tried just about everything I could think of. Can you actually not have two transparent images on top of one another? Is there something else I can try? And as an offshoot question, why won't any transparent images natively load/import as transparent? I always seem to have to call imagecolortransparent on portions that are definitely transparent in Photoshop, etc. Any help would be much appreciated!

[PHP] GD/Freetype text problems with bold or size < 8
Currently, I'm running PHP 5.0.4 (only because it's the only one I can get to work on my FC4 x64 install!), but for some reason, using pixel sizes under 8, or using bold fonts, makes the text look horrible. My old host (1&1 in case anyone else has them..) had this working well, but I have no idea what their settings were. I've heard that editing the gd.h file to change the resolution from 96 to 72 helps, but I'm assuming I'd have to recompile something for that to take effect, and I can't find a PHP-GD Source RPM for my arch.

[PHP] GD/Freetype text problems with bold or size < 8 - Followup
Just to followup on this, I was able to install PHP 5.1.1 with its embedded GD library, and it turns out that GD is definitely the cause of the issues. So my question now is what changes to the source can be made to ensure the highest-quality fonts in smaller sizes? As I've said, I've been on hosts with very smooth rendering of smaller text (size < 8, assuming 96 pixel resolution), but my current build looks horrible. http://card.mygamercard.net/mini/Morgon.jpg is what it looks like now - all text is 6 point aside from the bold text at the top, which is 8. This is the 5.0.4 install. http://data.mygamercard.net/test.png is an image I created using a built-but-not-installed version of PHP 5.1.1. I changed the GD_RESOLUTION to 72 point font, so to compensate, these are a font size of 9. What I would like is for the fonts to look similar to what would really be displayed, had this been standard system fonts in a browser or other application. If anyone has had experience with rendering text, I would really appreciate some hints on how to tweak GD to make things look proper.
