New Comment:
This basically means that the regexp passed to eregi() is empty, i.e.
that $HOSTNAME has no value (I guess its null then).
Somehow your code looks bogus:
if (eregi($HOSTNAME, "....
would imply that $HOSTNAME actualyl is a regular expression. Are you
sure about this?
If you just want to match if two strings are similar you should use
if ($HOSTNAME == "www..
You can surpress warning output with the '@' operator, e.g. @eregi().
Closing.

have a web ap with an include file called common.php that contains:
...
if(eregi($HOSTNAME,"www.somehostname.com"))
{
define("DATABASE_HOST","mybox.myhost.com");
}
else
{
define("DATABASE_HOST","localhost");
}
// Database Initialize
$db = new DB_Sql();
...etc
eregi must be outputing some data to the server since the page that
includes the above include file returns an error:
(note that line 22 is the first eregi expression in common.php)
=======error message begin:
Warning: REG_EMPTY in
/usr/local/home/vhosts/mybox.com/httpdocs/common.php on line 22
Warning: Cannot send session cache limiter - headers already sent
(output started at
/usr/local/home/vhosts/mybox.com/httpdocs/common.php:22) in
/usr/local/home/vhosts/mybox.com/httpdocs/infoGrid.php on line 16
=======error message end:
infoGrid.php is setting cookies
removing the eregi test and replacing the above lines in common.php
with:
define("DATABASE_HOST","mybox.myhost.com");
removes the error
It seems to me that eregi must be outputing something back to the
server.
I couldn't find this bug in the bug database so I'd appreciate it if
anyone has time to look into it.
