Hi
I have a very simple file upload form and script to handle it (copied
verbatim from the php manual, except for the file target location and
the script name).
However, it always fails, with an error code in the _FILE array or 6.
Does anyone know what this error is or what I am likely to have set
wrong? All that I can find in the docs are errors from 0 to 4 :-(
It's there:
http://sk.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.errors.php
UPLOAD_ERR_NO_TMP_DIR
Value: 6; Missing a temporary folder. Introduced in PHP 4.3.10 and
PHP 5.0.3.
Note: These became PHP constants in PHP 4.3.0.
Set the correct upload_tmp_dir in php.ini and restart webserver

Hi,
I'm trying to upload a pic file by form (Using QuickForm, but this here also
happens in manually generates Forms).
Everything seems to work fine.
The $_FILES["formfile"] shows everything about the file what is needed to
know.
For example: Array ( [formfile] => Array ( [name] => lindworm.jpg [type] =>
image/pjpeg [tmp_name] => /srv/www/htdocs/tmp/phpTLREuE [error] => 0 [size]
=> 15101 ) )
With this information I now try to make
move_uploaded_file($_FILE["formfile"],
"/srv/www/htdocs/img/".$_FILE["formfile"]["name"]) .
This also seem to work, because it gives no error back.
Both directories are writeable by php. I also use this dirs on other Sites
to generate file inside.
But and that's the problem. The File does not appear in TMP-DIR and not at
Destination dir. It is just nowhere.
I am Using php-4.3.4 and Apache 2 on SuSE9.1.
Fileupload is active in php.ini and phpinfo(); tells me the same.
Has anybody an Idea please what also could be wrong.
Greetings

Oh sorry, that move_uploaded_file is surely used with
FILE["formfile"]['tmp_name']
That was an error in Mail Typing.
Problem still exists.

I have this function:
function supscript($texto)
{
print("<sup>".$texto."</sup>");
}
But when i do:
print "2".supscript("3");
I get the "3" before the "2", how is that posible?
And:
print(supscript("3")."2");
makes the 2 appear before the 3.
I am confused!
Thanks

probably because it calls the function before it calls the main print.
try return instead of print.
example:
function supScript($txt)
{
return "<sup>{$txt}</sup>";
}
print "2" . supScript("3");
You shouldn't print a function that prints.. ;-)

You're trying to use the function supscript() as though it returned a value,
it doesn't, it just prints something out directly.

Thank you so much, it was really stupid of me, basic mistake. I solved
it differently, although your solution is miles away better than mine.
Heres what i did:
function supscript($texto)
{
global $supa;
$supa = "<sup>".$texto."</sup>";
}
supscript("3");
print ("2".$supa);
Complicated little thing, eh?
Thanks :-)

Your function should return the value, not print it. The way you have it
now, the function must be ran before the original string can be printed.
That's why you see the 3 before the 2.
function supscript($texto)
{ return "<sup>{$texto}</sup>"; }

Your second example does not print the 2 before the 3. And the reason
your first example prints the 3 before the 2 is because the the print
inside the function prints first because the print that contains the
call to it can't print until it receives the return value form the
function. What you probably want is the following:
function supscript($texto)
{
return "<sup>".$texto."</sup>";
}
print "2".supscript("3");

I have the following:

However, when I have
print($p); or

the result page does not display as a link; just as the text above.
What have I missed?

ok, i have a project where:
-a user adds their email address, name, etc to a database.
-a responder sends an email to them to confirm their email address
(within 72 hrs).
-upon confirmation of their email address, a script will generate a
store coupon with a random coupon id # in the browser (which they can
print at that time).
Now I guess my question relates more to the email confirmation. How
would you go about this? Store it in a database? Every-time the script
is run it also checks to see which requests are more than 72 hrs old
and removes their request from the database? And those that are
confirmed, a flag is added to the database so they are not removed?
Just looking more for ideas on the script flow to accomplish this.
Thanks!
Dustin

If you just do something like:
ssh hostname
Then ssh will try and establish a terminal connection. If you're
trying to do a command of some sort it will be:
ssh hostname command
Then of course you'll need to somehow authenticate.. you can google
'man ssh' to find out how to use ssh if you don't have shell access
to the machine.

Yes, there is a ssh2 library available for php, it is currently in
beta release, but from my experience it is quite stable to use.
PECL Extension:
http://pecl.php.net/ssh2

PHP General,
The Situation:
I am creating a form for users to enter text into a MySQL 3.23
database. The text is often in Japanese, encoded in utf-8 format.
The Problem:
When the utf-8 encoded text is inserted into the database, it
becomes random ASCII gibberish.
What I've Tried So Far:
I've noticed that it is possible to save utf-8 encoded text in the
database. When I insert Japanese text into the database using
phpMyAdmin, it stores okay, and I can access the text via PHP for
placement on web pages. So my speculation is that there is something
wrong with my script.
My search on the web for information has turned up indication that
it should be possible to simply store utf-8 text without the need for
modifications. Some places suggest that it might be best to store the
Japanese text as binary. But since I can enter utf-8 text into fields
and store them as text successfully in phpMyAdmin, I am sure there must
be a way for getting around binary storage. I'd like to avoid binary
storage if possible, for a variety of reasons.
The Question:
How can I preserve the text so that it does not become garbled when
written to the database?
For Reference:
Here is the form and the PHP script that it accesses. $showData is
obtained by querying the database and seeing what is already stored there.
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="" method="POST">
<p>English (256 characters)</p>
<p><textarea name="introE" rows="5" cols="50"><?php echo
$showData['introE'];?></textarea></p>
<p>(Japanese)(256 Characters)</p>
<p><textarea name="introJ" rows="5" cols="50"><?php echo
$showData['introJ'];?></textarea></p>
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" /></p>
<?php
if (isset ($HTTP_POST_VARS['introE']) || isset ($HTTP_POST_VARS['introJ']))
{
$updateQuery = "UPDATE events SET introE='" . $HTTP_POST_VARS['introE']
. "', introJ='" . $HTTP_POST_VARS['introJ'] . "' WHERE eventid = " . $show;
$updateResult = mysql_query($updateQuery);
}
?>
</form>
Any help much appreciated.

The difference between text and binary in mysql is that text column type
takes into account character set for stuff like case insensitive
comparition and the likes. Character set is set per server basis in
mysql < 4.1, so if your mysql is set to use iso-8859-1, it's better to
store utf-8 in binary to get rid of the transformations.
The Question:
How can I preserve the text so that it does not become garbled when
written to the database?
For Reference:
Here is the form and the PHP script that it accesses. $showData is
obtained by querying the database and seeing what is already stored there.
The main part is missing here - <head> section of your page. It must
contain
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
else it will default to iso-8859-1.
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" action="" method="POST">
<p>English (256 characters)</p>
<p><textarea name="introE" rows="5" cols="50"><?php echo
$showData['introE'];?></textarea></p>
<p>(Japanese)(256 Characters)</p>
<p><textarea name="introJ" rows="5" cols="50"><?php echo
$showData['introJ'];?></textarea></p>
Use htmlspecialchars() to display $showData['introJ']
<p><input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit" /></p>
<?php
if (isset ($HTTP_POST_VARS['introE']) || isset ($HTTP_POST_VARS['introJ']))
{
$updateQuery = "UPDATE events SET introE='" . $HTTP_POST_VARS['introE']
. "', introJ='" . $HTTP_POST_VARS['introJ'] . "' WHERE eventid = " . $show;
$updateResult = mysql_query($updateQuery);
