You probably need the cgi version - not the command line one you
actually have.

that cli should be cgi.
I'm assuming you compiled php with something like:
configure --with-apxs=/yada/apxs [other options]
What you need to do is recompile php with configure like:
configure --[other options]
Then make will build a cgi binary in sapi/cgi/php, relative to your build
directory. If you want both versions (cgi and cli) you'll have to
manually place the cgi version of php somewhere else than
/usr/local/bin or name it something php_cgi. And then reference
that file in you php script.

Ooohhhhhhhhhhh... Ouch. So there are *three* possible PHP compiles:
module, CGI, and CLI?
OK. To save us the cost of rebuilding at this host, is there any way to
pass args to the CLI version of the script running as a CGI?

You might have getenv('QUERY_STRING') for GET data and *possibly* to
get the POST data you can do something like:
$fp = fopen('php://stdin', 'r');
while (!feof($fp) ) $buf .= fgets($fp, 1024);
fclose($fp);
Then of course you're going to have to parse the query_string and
post data in order to get the variable names and values..
parse_str(getenv('QUERY_STRING'), $_GET);

I found where our support crew had built the current version not quite
six months ago, and that a lovely buildme file with our approximately 8
billion --with* params in it, so I just copied the tree, pulled apxs out,
rebuilt, and copied the CGI php somewhere as you suggest. And now I have
post data; yippee :-)
Thanks also for your other response. Finding the build tree was
definitely the easier route :-)

That just occurred to me as well, although it's just a guess for me as
well. Upon checking mnoGoSearch's configuration help, it appears the
default is static. I'll see if I can get it working as shared...

I tried configuring both mnoGoSearch and PHP with shared libs and it
still did not work together (same errors).
I just tried mnoGoSearch withouth the MySQL support and it did work. I
suppose at least that will work well enough to let me know what
mnoGoSearch is all about.
I wonder if mnoGoSearch does not truly support MySQL 4.x (I'm on
4.0.18). They've only tested with 3.21, 3.22 and 3.23.

I had the same problem. We're running mnoGoSearch just fine on our
production box using MySQL 3.x, but on one of our development machines,
we're running MySQL 4.x. mnoGoSearch configured/compiled/installed fine
on that box, but php barfed on compile. We then reinstalled
mnoGoSearch, configuring it with --with-built-in, and then PHP built fine.

Good to know it's not just my machine, thanks! I've just run a few
tests and it seems mnoGoSearch will fill our need. Hopefully they'll
soon have MySQL 4.x supported though!

Consider ASPSeek. It's a spin off from mnogo. It does have a lot of
other benefits including faster speeds.

Or dirname() of $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'] in case SCRIPT_URL isn't
available.

Well, then... let me win the whole battle for you:
$path = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI'];
$path = dirname($path);
echo $path;
You can use REQUEST_URI, SCRIPT_NAME, or PHP_SELF.
Now you know, and knowing is . . . ;-)

Also, on a Windows machiene, it returns something like c:\htdocs\subsite.
Already tried it, but thanks. :-)
I'll be going with your GLOBAL variable suggestion, it seems so obvious now.

That doesn't work... as the OP mentioned, the URLs might need to refer
locally within a subsite built as a subdirectory within the document root.

I'm looking for a good mapping solution for a PHP project I'm working
on, and wondered if any of you would be able to recommend one.
Basically, I would like to be able to pass this "Map Module" several
values: Latitude, longitude, map scale (e.g., 5KM x 5KM), and map
resolution (500 pixels x 500 pixels), and have it return a GIF or JPEG
which I can then send to the user's browser. (Additionally, it would be
useful if I could pass more than one set of latitude/longitude values
and have the map software display multiple points on the same map.)
It seems unlikely that I could get my Host Provider to let me run
third-party software like this on their servers, so I would probably
have to install it on my own—which would likely end up being a Mac OS X
box.
Any suggestions?

I can't make it work. Because I'm new to .htaccess I tried some examples
from apache.org:
1) Contents of .htaccess in http://mysite.com/path
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^oldstuff\.html$ newstuff.html
THIS EXAMPLE WORK, but the next one doesn't, nor the rule you told me:
2)
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^localpath(.*)$ http://www.google.com$1
Thanks again!

I think I'm having a major brain fart here. Is there a $HTTP_REFERER
anymore? It doesn't show up as a server variable or anything at all in
phpinfo()... using php 4.3.4
Ideas?
TIA,
Steve

lmao -- uh huh
Problem was that I was using a javascript redirect and of course, that
doesn't send any value. Found that out just a minute ago. New the stupid
variable existed...
Think I'll grab the info in js and then redirect it to the php page as part
of the query string.
Thanks,
Steve

Hi All,
I am trying to protect portions of my website. I am using pache 2.x and
php4.X. I don't want to use apache authentication within the Directory
directive because I can't utilize sessions if I do that. So I want to
use PHP to authenticate from a postgresql database.
This works fine on the pages I have put it on, the problem is I want it
on all pages in a given directory but I don't want to edit every page in
that directory. Is there a way to configure apache to include something
in every response?
Example:
http://test/v1/v1.php
v1.php:
...
include(../auth.inc)
...
This file is protected.
http://test/v1/v1-test.php
v1-test.php doesn't contain the include above, but I still want to
protect it.
Thanks
Glenn

I think you could use a autoprepend in your php.ini file
http://www.php.net/reserved.variables
there is a mention of it on the user comments on this page

I have a weird problem, maybe one of you can help me figure it out. I have
a server (that is a test box..but that's a different issue) running PHP
4.3.1 RC (I believe. I didn't install it and they laid off the guy who
did..) and it's giving me a weird error.
When you go to download a file off a page it corrupts the download. The code
for the fopen is specifying a binary d/l and not ASCII so it shouldn't be
doing this. However, it is and I can't figure out why.
I've run it through two browsers and even took the php pages off the
production site and literally replaced the files on the test box. Same
errors. When I directly link to the file, it of course works.
I thought I had ruled out the code (and it still seems to be ruled out)
because the exact same procedure works on the production box. One of the
guys who worked here before he quit two weeks ago mentioned something about
having to change the max upload size in the php.ini file becaue of issues
with large .zip files. However this is not an upload issue so I don't think
it's the problem. I changed it anyways (to varying levels) and it still
didn't work.
Oh, the original files are good. I know becase you can go across the network
and open them and they look fine.
Anyone have any ideas? I'm getting nowhere fast.
Oh, it was originally tested using some .xls files, but a few .txt files I
created as a test were altered in the d/l as well...
It's a local file, it has permission to open it, the size is 20,480 bytes
and the size of the dowloaded file comes out at 20,480 bytes, so they match.
The Apache server is 2.0.43.
Code:
// Verify current user and their permissions
//
$skip = FALSE;
if( $_SESSION['userid'] == "" ) {
$errormsg = "You must be logged in to download files.";
$skip = TRUE;
}
if( $_SESSION['providerid'] == "" ) {
$errormsg = "You must be logged in to download files.";
$skip = TRUE;
}
// Build path
if ( @$HTTP_GET_VARS['rfile']) {
$filepath = $_SESSION['Settings']['datapath'] .
$HTTP_GET_VARS['rfile'];
} else {
$filepath = $_SESSION['Settings']['datapath'] .
$_SESSION['providerid'] . $HTTP_GET_VARS['file'];
}
if(!$skip) {
if(file_exists($filepath)) {
// Save an audit log entry of this download
// Output headers
header("Cache-Control: private, must-revalidate");
header("Pragma: private");
header("Content-type: application/octet-stream\n");
header("Content-Disposition: attachment;
filename=\"".substr(strrchr($filepath,"/"),1)."\"\n");
header("Content-length:
".(string)(filesize($filepath))."\n");
$fd = fopen($filepath,'rb');
while(!feof($fd)) {
print fread($fd, 4096);
flush();
}
fclose($fd);

not sure what the exact problem is, but have you tried other functions,
like readfile

Define "junk data"? How is it corrupting the file? try downloading a
simple text file with a basic sentence in it. What does it look like
after it's corrupted?
