Re: [PHP-DB] Php, Oracle on Mac, with strange behaviour
Hi Mark, you are right /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/org.apache.httpd.plist will not work in your case, it's for the Mac OS X supplied Apache. In your case you can edit /usr/local/apache2/bin/apachectl adding the following: DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/oracle/instanceclient LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/oracle/instanceclient ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle/instanceclient ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/instanceclient export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME (note: As Chris Jones mentioned LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not used on OS X, however there is no harm in having it set) Place the above some where near the top of apachectl, I cannot tell you exactly since fink will not install and MacPorts does not build SQLite3.

Re: [PHP-DB] Migrate MySQL to Ingres
On 13/05/07 17:12, Jeffrey scribbled: We have a moderately complex PHP web app collecting data from a MySQL database. We've been offered a rather attractive proposition to build an Ingres version (ie. same app, but collects data from an Ingres database). Questions for experts like you: 1) Is this a reasonably straightforward migration in which we can largely replace mysql_query with ingres_query, etc, or will it be more complex than that? There are different functions provided by both the Ingres and MySQL interfaces. That and the parameter order of equivalent functions do not always match. 2) Does Ingres compare reasonably well with MySQL in terms of scalability and speed? Yes and then some - don't just take my word for it since I work for Ingres. If you wish to get the opinion of Ingres users go to comp.databases.ingres (http://groups.google.com/group/comp.databases.ingres/topics) or Ingres's own forums (http://community.ingres.com/) 3) Any dangers I should be aware of? none that I am aware of.

Hello All, I am fairly new to PHP but have coded in asp and asp.net for years. I am trying to find the code that will allow me to display the name of the column's from the table I am using. Below is the code where I am writing all the data out in a comma delimited fashion, but I want to make the very first row show the name of the database table names. For example I want to show the ID,Name,Address, etc... Can someone tell me what that command is in PHP? I have searched and can not find anything, I guess I am searching for the wrong info as I know it can be done!!! $sel_result = mysql_query("select * from customerdata where account_type = '$tmpType'",$db); //Now loop thru account types and show the one selected while($sel_row=mysql_fetch_array($sel_result)) { print "\"$sel_row[0]\",\"$sel_row[1]\",\"$sel_row[2]\",\"$sel_row[3]\",\"$sel_ row[4]\",\"$sel_row[5]\",\"$sel_row[6]\",\"$sel_row[7]\",\"$sel_row[8]\" ,\"$sel_row[9]\","; print "\"$sel_row[10]\",\"$sel_row[11]\",\"$sel_row[12]\",\"$sel_row[13]\",\"$ sel_row[14]\",\"$sel_row[15]\",\"$sel_row[16]\",\"$sel_row[17]\",\"$sel_ row[18]\",\"$sel_row[19]\","; print "\"$sel_row[20]\",\"$sel_row[21]\",\"$sel_row[22]\",\"$sel_row[23]\",\"$ sel_row[24]\",\"$sel_row[25]\",\"$sel_row[26]\",\"$sel_row[27]\"\n"; } Thanks, Grant Griffith Web Application Developer Enhanced Telecommunications http://www.etczone.com 812-932-1000

[PHP-DB] bags o beans - filtering rows/array by value of an aggregated attribute
In the database "beans" i have a table "bags_o_beans" where each row represents a single bag, and columns named "bean_type" and "number_o_beans" My teenage son is having several thousand hungry friends over in half an hour, and I'm stuck making the bean dip... I'm going to need 1 million beans of a single type to make the dip. My goal, before I start cooking, is to filter from the following query: SELECT bean_type, sum(number_o_beans) FROM bags_o_beans GROUP BY bean_type ...into an html table such that only 'bean types' with 'sum(number_of_beans)' greater than 1 million are displayed. I have tried inserting the following snippet into the table-generating php code, with no luck: while ($row = @ mysql_fetch_row($result)) { foreach($row as $data) if ({sum(number_o_beans)} > (100)) print "\n\t {$data} "; print "\n"; } Thanks ahead of time for your thoughts and recipes :) Grant -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Thanks! I was going to write and say that I have been using ADODB but was unable to make the SelectLimit function work using MS SQL, but I decided to take a look at my setup one more time. I have setup my own abstraction layer on top of ADODB so that I can override some of the default functions and or adjust them as need be, but it appears that when I wrote the interface to the SelectLimit function I neglected to send the $nrows and $offset values to ADODB.

Re: [PHP-DB] Why use MySQL with PHP
I mostly agree, although I prefer PostgreSQL for the transactions, better row locking, and server side cursors. It also does better with lotsa users (if the data isn't just used for the web, this is important). I have used many languages for this stuff, and the one with the best balance of functionality, extensibility, and ease of use is PHP (I have used CF, ASP, Miva/HTMLScript, PERL, C, COBOL, Shell also) BTW, COBOL on the web is weird. ASP is the worst of them all.

[PHP-DB] Getting key of row just inserted into mySQL
What's the best way to get the primary key of a row just inserted into a mySQL database? If the primary key is autoincrement, I insert a row. It's successful, but now how to do I read back the key of this table? Right now I'm adding a md5 hash of the session id into the row I'm inserting, and then will read that row back. But this seems clunky Should I just go for a "keytable" approach? Where I have a no autoincrement fields and just a table that holds the key value for each table. When I insert a row, I lock the row of the keytable I'm inserting int, update it's value, write it back, then use that key to insert into the main table? -- == Grant Boggs http://www.cornersonesoftware.ws -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: [PHP-DB] getting ID
mysql_insert_id([resource link_identifier]) returns the value of the auto_increment field for the previous INSERT query. It will return 0 if there is not an auto_increment field. If the link_identifier is not specified, the last opened connection is used. So, use $id = mysql_insert_id(); directly after your $result = mysql_query($query); operation (where $query is an INSERT query) to pull the id value you have just auto inserted back out. Ian.

[PHP-DB] HTML editors
Hi, I'm looking for something similar to eWebEdit Pro (http://www.ewebeditpro.com), but a lot less costlier! The idea is using a HTML form to write articles to a PHP/MySQL-driven dynamic site. Obviously, people can cut and paste HTML into a tag, but having a WYSIWYG editor in place of the tag would be better, considering the users are not going to be HTML-proficient. However, I cannot seem to find anything like this that doesn't cost loads. Does anyone know of anything similar?

If you use pg_pconnect, it will stay open for other pages to use. I am not sure how pg_close affects a pg_pconnect. As most of the overhead with postgres is in opening the connection, I use pg_pconnect, and never close it. This improves performance, but if I want to shutdown, I have to shutdown apache before I shut down postgres just in case there was some recent activity, and it hasn't timed out yet. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

RE: [PHP-DB] Another SELECTING problem :-(
Another possible solution (although more drastic) is to switch DBMS's. I use PostgreSQL with no troubles. However, 6.5 and earlier are not so great performance wise. 7.0.3 is OK, and 7.1.2 is exceptional. It also now (finally) supports outer joins and write ahead locking. If you are at the beginning of a project, this might not be a big switch. If you have a lot of data already loaded, this would be an unpleasant solution. __ Your mouse has moved.

[PHP-DB] Search engines & database driven sites
Greetings I'm not sure my question fits into the remit of this list - so apologies in advance if it's off track... Please point me in a more suitable direction is necessary! I recently converted my sites from hardwired HTML to a PHP/MySQL combination - with dynamic 'newsy' info held in a database, tailored for each visitor. Unfortunately the 'hit rate' from search engines has gone virtually to zero as Altavista, Hotbot etc. removed me from their indexes - they don't index .php files as far as I can see, and also don't follow links on php pages (I imagine it's the same for ASP, ColdFusion etc.). In contrast Google and All The Web have no problems with the .php extension (and even index my .pdf files!). I would be grateful for any wisdom on how best to deal with this. I could of course make an HTML intro page, but that would be a pity since I'd hardly be able to an intro page that conveys all the necessary info to bring the right visitors. Any advice on how to do this well? I could alternatively change the setting of the PHP parser to parse all .html as if it's php. Unfortunately I'm sharing a server right now and my ISP is unlikely to accept this because of the reduction in performance (I may be prepared to move to a dedicated server if necessary though). Lastly I thought of writing a PHP routine that, run once a day, will make a few HTML 'mirror' pages based on the content of the database to capture the search engine visitors. I could do that, but it seems to defeat the purpose of the dynamic pages somewhat... pity. Any other ideas? How do others deal with this issue?
