On my Win98 / Xitami / PHP 4.2.3, I only specify following in php.ini:
[mail function]
SMTP=<host name or IP address of mail server>
sendmail_from=<email address for from>
and it works pretty well.

Subject: Sending mail on Windows 98
Summary : do I have an MTA ?
Detail : Some scripts are being developed in php for uploading to a web
host
and I would like to test them on my standalone Windows 98 machine at
home. I
have Apache 2.0.44, PHP 4.3.0 and a dial-up connection to an ISP, which
we
will call ispname, for e-mail.
The PHP manual states " The Windows implementation of mail() differs in
many
ways from the Unix implementation. First, it doesn't use a local binary
for
composing messages but only operates on direct sockets which means a MTA
is
needed listening on a network socket (which can either on the localhost
or a
remote machine)."
My php.ini file includes SMTP = smtp.ispname.com and smtp_port = 25
although
I have also tried various other possibilities. In all cases, when mail()
is
called, the browser hangs up. I was rather hoping the Dial-Up Connection
pop-up box would be displayed. I'm not sure whether this is a software
problem, e.g. with the software versions I'm runnning on Windows 98,
perhaps
the need to use an older Apache 1.3, or whether the ISP software simply
does
not provide an MTA. (I also have AOL if that is of any relevance.) I see
that there is a file sendmail.dll in C:\Windows\System.
If I need an MTA, are any available as open source ?
As you can see, there is a gap in my knowledge.
Thanks for your help.
Geoff

Hi,
in short: for SMTP delivery on windows you need an SMTP port
_within reach_ of the sending machine. The dialup network program
of Windows does by itself no autodial. So to bring up the dialup
dialog you would have to get an [auto]dialer reacting upon port 25.
(A mail proxy with [auto]dial function).
You can find a quite compact proxy/server for free at
http://www.janaserver.de
When installing it be shure to stop Apache first, then cut off
http proxy/server function of Jana or else they will battle.
It is much more than you need, so probably someone will know
a more suitable piece of software for you.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] dl() doesn't work . PHP 4.3.1 + Apache 1.3 + Win2k.
Hope to find someone to help me with this:
I am trying to load a dynamic extension using the dl() function. The dll
file resides in my web root directory (c:\inetpub\wwwroot). I have
extension_dir = ./ in php.ini (the default).
dl("xxxx_php.dll") doesn't seem to find the file when called from a script
that resides in the same directory as the extension file (xxxx_php.dll).
Also, I've tried setting extension_dir = c:\inetpub\wwwroot without
success.
Any ideas, please?
Thanks in advance.

Hash: SHA1
Loading DLLs has nothing to do with the PHP path, it has to do with the SYSTEM
path. You have to either alter the PATH variable, or place the DLLs in the same
directory as the php4ts.dll, or in c:\winnt\system32
also, next time send the full PHP error message.

Hello,
I have just installed PHP4 and new to this environment. Can someone
help me with SESSION variables. I need to log the users sesssion into a
MySQL database but how do I retrieve the users session information. Is
there a simple function that will provide me with the information?
I have tried $_SESSION[''] and I get an error that the _SESSION
variable doesnt exist.
Thanks,

I need the user ID of the logged in user (.htaccess)
on an Apache Server using PHP4. This should be
in $REMOTE_USER or $PHP_AUTH_USER.
On one server (FreeBSD: Apache 1.3.27 with PHP 4.2.2) the test.phtml file
below works as expected. The user login apprompt appears
and the user logs in, and the page is displayed, with all variables
HTTP_HOST, and REMOTER_USER, and PHP_AUTH_USER
set as expected.
On the other server (Windows XP: Apache 2.0.43 with PHP 4.3.1) the test.phtml file
does not display values for any of the REMOTE_USER or PHP_AUTH_USER
variables. The user login apprompt appears as expected
and the user logs in, and the page is displayed, but only the
HTTP_HOST value is set as expected. If phpinfo() is called,
the user id does not show up in any of the variables displayed.
As I set this server up myself, it is likely that something needs
to be changed in the configuration files for Apache and/or PHP.
Any ideas?
Contents of test.phtml file:
<html>
<head><title>PHP Test</title></head>
<body>
<H1>PHP Test</H1>
<?php
echo "<BR>\$_SERVER[HTTP_HOST]="; echo $_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"];
echo "<BR>\$_SERVER[REMOTE_USER]="; echo $_SERVER["REMOTE_USER"];
echo "<BR>\$PHP_AUTH_USER="; echo $PHP_AUTH_USER;
echo "<BR>\$REMOTE_USER="; echo $REMOTE_USER;
echo "<BR>";
?>
</body></html>

Hi.
I followed the instructions in the php manual to install php as CGI module
under apache, under windows. I get the following message when requesting
a php file:
Invalid URI in request GET /mydir/myfile.php HTTP/1.1
I believe this is because Apache is not getting the protocol:host part of
the request
(in this case: http://localhost/). I don't know why this happens.
Something else: The PHP manual recommends adding the line:
ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"
to the http.conf file. But I don't want ONLY the files under /php/ to be
interpreted
as scripts. Rather, I want ALL the files in my documentRoot directory to be
interpreted as scripts.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance
