ok you must get your variables like row1, row2 etc from anywherelse then try
this format too insert them at your db

mysql_connect("localhost","username","password")
or die ("cant connect database");

@mysql_select_db("databasename")
or die("cant connect database");

mysql_query("INSERT INTO yourtablename(row1, row2, row3)
VALUES ('$row1', '$row2', '$row3') ")

[PHP-DB] PHP vs. Perl for XML

2001-03-08 Thread Santiago Chumbe

Hi,

I've been trying to find information on the interaction of XML and PHP
recently
(for a view of one day writing .cgi scripts that search my
xml documents with a knowledge of their hierarchy, etc.) And
I came across this recorded roundtable discussion
on perl and xml at:

http://www.xml.com/lpt/a/av/revised.html


Now, I wonder if Perl is a better choice than PHP to interact with XML

Any experience on integrating PHP with XML?

Santi


PS: (The two main speakers are Larry Wall, the developer of the Perl
programming language, and Tim Bray, the co-editor of the XML
Specification
and the technical editor for XML.com)

[PHP-DB] MySQL selects it's clients carefully?

2001-03-08 Thread Lasse Laurila

Environment: Two servers, which another has Windows 2000 Server and another
one runs Linux. Both of them has PHP (IIS/Apache) and MySQL installed. They
seemingly share configuration and they have exactly the same database
structure, data and PHP scripts as well.

This combination works in following cases:

- Linux PHP application uses Windows's MySQL database

- Windows PHP application uses Windows's MySQL database

- Linux MySQL client software uses Windows's MySQL database

- Windows MySQL client software uses Linux's MySQL database

- Either computer's MySQL client software uses MySQL database on the same
computer

However, if PHP application on either server tries to use MySQL database on
the Linux server, it doesn't work. Symptom is quite strange: MySQL
connection is established normally, but any simple query fails to run (there
is no error, but it returns no result set).

I've run all the tests on same user account and this situation is the only
one that fails. MySQL version is 3.23.33 and PHP version 4.0.4pl1. Any
ideas?

[PHP-DB] connecting to a sybase-database using php 4.04pl1 on win32

2001-03-08 Thread Trond Straume

Hi!

I am trying to connect a sybase-database using the php_sybase_ct.dll module,
but all I get is a pop-up window telling:

"Unable to load dynamic library './extensions/php_sybase-ct.dll' - The
dynamic library could not be found.".

I have really worked hard on this one. I'm sure that the path is correct
spelled in php.ini, because the postgreSQL-dll placed in the same directory
and it's working out fine.

Any suggestions?

Maybe you should modify extension_dir in the php.ini file as following:
  extension_dir=path\to\you\extension\dll\

the extension dll such as php_oci8.dll should place in such a directory.

Hi,

I'm having some troubles connecting php with a oracle8 DB. Even the extensions are a 
problem. I uncomment extension=php_oci8.dll in the php.ini file (yeah yeah php and 
apache on win32, company rules you know), but it's giving a error like "cannot find 
extension .". 
You have to know that our DB is managed on an other computer. I assume that php needs 
the oracle libs?? 
Need some more information about this, php and ora is rather difficult compared to php

[PHP-DB] password security on an isp

2001-03-08 Thread Jamie McClelland

Hi all -

I am using php/MySQL on an ISP in which there are other users. Everyone has
SSH access and can therefore enter everyone else's directories and read any
world-readable files. I have a config.inc file which contains my MySQL
username and password. This file is located outside of my web directory (to
prevent web browsers from reading it). In addition, my ISP added the user
'www' to my group, enabling me to make config.inc group readable but not
user readable. Therefore, none of the other users can SSH into the system
and read my username and password.

This is great, but there is one more concern: if the user 'www' can read
this file, isn't it possible for any other user to write a php script,
executable by 'www', that instructs the web server to echo the contents of
this file? All they have to know is the directory and name of the file they
are looking for.

Anyone have suggestions on how to close this security hole?

Thanks,
Jamie

[PHP-DB] Oracle Function Calls Redux

2001-03-08 Thread Richard S. Crawford



Problem solved!

Thanks to everyone who helped out (and to our system DBA for reminding me 
that an Oracle function is just a type of stored procedure).

For what it's worth, here is the code that I wound up using (sensitive 
company information 'ed out, of course):


?php
// Establish Oracle connection
putenv("ORACLE_SID=");
putenv("ORACLE_HOME=");
$db = ocilogon("","","");
if(!$db) die("Database connection failed.");

// Execute stored procedure
$functionCall = "begin :result := hubins_func('Richard','Y');end;";
$parsedFunctionCall=ociparse($db,$functionCall);
ocibindbyname($parsedFunctionCall,":result",$result,10);
if(!ociexecute($parsedFunctionCall)) die ("Stored Procedure execution 
failed.");
print("Value of primary key: $result");

// End Oracle connection
ocilogoff($db);

?

The value of $result is the primary key which is associated with the value 
inserted into the database with the hubins_func stored proc.

mysql_pconnect() opens a persistent connection, that is, one that remains
open for the duration of you session.  Therefore, you don't need to re-open
it.  Either that, or you can use mysql_connect() to open a non-persistent

Re: [PHP-DB] About MySQL connections

2001-03-08 Thread Lasse Laurila

From the PHP documention:

"First, when connecting, the function would first try to find a (persistent)
link that's already open with the same host, username and password. If one
is found, an identifier for it will be returned instead of opening a new
connection."

According to this, and my own experience also, you can "open" as many
pconnects you want without causing any trouble.

[PHP-DB] Too many includes?

2001-03-08 Thread Oson, Chris M.

Good Day All,

I have my scripts in place and the website is running fine.

When there's a surge in traffic, the pages take longer being served up.
No big news there, I would expect that.

My question is, several of my scripts have:

require("file.php");

spread out all over the place.  As a matter of fact, there are about 
15 of them on several of the pages that get hit the hardest.  Do too 
many includes slow down the pages being rendered in the browser?

Cheers,

chris

[PHP-DB] 1 TNS error out of 25 connections

2001-03-08 Thread Matthias Kopolt

HI

I have a strange behaviour of my remote Apache-PHP-Oracle-Client.
Apache 1.3.14 mod SSL
PHP  4.0.3pl1   (everything compiled from sources)
Oracle 8.1.6 on remote Intel/Redhat 6.2 (100MBit, same subnet)

The Oracle Server runs a Multi-Threaded-Server (successfully) and accepts
dedicated Serverconnections on the same Port.

tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora are placed in the proper directories.
it works in 95% of all requests, but sometimes (with no specific traffic
reason or network problem) it shows an typical _oci_openserver_error: COULD
NOT RESOLVE SERVICE NAME.

I looked up Oracles Online Help but it's just like check your tnsnames.ora,
check your servicename ... But as it works in 95% of all cases, I do not
think that the problem is my path to tnsnames.ora


Is there anyone that is familiar with that problem or the configuration of
MTS and Dedicated at the same port / time ?

thank you

PHP and MySQL (at standard ISPs) is a good (the best) choice for your
business.
It's cheap, fast and reliable, although i would not take my mission critical
parts
to an ISP.

check out:

phpMyAdmin is a DB-Manager for MySql completely written in PHP.

You can do everything with that and so can you with your PHP-Script

[PHP-DB] RE: [PHP-INST] FW: I'm not sure where to begin...

2001-03-08 Thread TANNER

Maybe I should have put "NEWBIE ALERT" as part of the subject :) 
All the same.

I thought that the build had already been done in steps 9 and 10 (see manual
exerpt).  And then, right after that is the line about "building" the CGI
executable (section following the steps).  Has that not been done already?
Perhaps I have done something wrong with the compile or the post-compile
Apache configuration.

I am probably going to do the compile again.  I want to use Apache and MySQL
with PHP.  Any tips?  Before I attempt to compile, where should I locate the
Apache, MySQL and PHP source directories (/usr/local?) in terms of best
practices?  After the build, can I remove the source directories from that
machine?

When I try to open a sample .php, the browser asks me where I would like to
download it.  I have obviously missed something.  I tried to fix this by
adding "AddModule mod_php3.c" to the end of the list of modules in
httpd.conf and get an error stating "Cannot add module via name
'mod_php4.c':not in list of loaded modules" on httpd startup.  I looked at
the other loaded modules and they all end in .so.  There is no mod_php4.so
on my system.  I guess the idiot-proof install wasn't written for
SuperIdiot.  Anyway, any direction regarding how to troubleshoot this is
vigorously encouraged.

Regards,
Rob

x---From the Manualx

Apache Module Quick Reference
PHP can be compiled in a number of different ways, but one of the most
popular is as an Apache module. The following is a quick installation
overview. 

Example 2-1. Quick Installation Instructions for PHP 4 (Apache Module
Version) 

1.  gunzip apache_1.3.x.tar.gz
2.  tar xvf apache_1.3.x.tar
3.  gunzip php-x.x.x.tar.gz
4.  tar xvf php-x.x.x.tar
5.  cd apache_1.3.x
6.  ./configure --prefix=/www
7.  cd ../php-x.x.x
8.  ./configure --with-mysql --with-apache=../apache_1.3.x
--enable-track-vars
9.  make
10. make install
11. cd ../apache_1.3.x
12. ./configure --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
13. make
14. make install
15. cd ../php-x.x.x
16. cp php.ini-dist /usr/local/lib/php.ini
17. Edit your httpd.conf or srm.conf file and add: 
  AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

18. Use your normal procedure for restarting the Apache server. (You must
stop and restart the server, not just cause the server to reload by
use a HUP or USR1 signal.)
 
 
 

Building
When PHP is configured, you are ready to build the CGI executable. The
command make should take care of this. If it fails and you can't figure out
why, see the Problems section.

 Type make from in your php-4.0.4pl1 directory.  then it 
 should compile.
 then you can type "make install" and it should install.

 Hello all,
 
 I'm using RHL 6.0 with Apache 1.3.6 and downloaded and
 attempted an install of PHP-4.0.4pl1 today.
 
 As you can probably guess, I was unsuccessful in my first try
 to get things working here, but I remain hopeful.
 
 I followed the instructions given on pp. 51-52 of the
 http://snaps.php.net/~jah/pdf/manual-en.pdf document.  Well, 
 mostly.  I
 don't know what is meant by "When PHP is configured, you are 
 ready to build
 the CGI executable.  The command make should take care of this.  If it
 fails, and you can't figure out why, see the problems section."
 
 What directory should I be in when I run make?  I thought I 
 had already
 built everything in the previous 18 step procedure.
 
 While I'm at it, since another compile/build seems 
 inevitable, I might as
 well ask for configuration suggestions as well.
 
 The install is on a development server, I just need it to 
 work for now.
 
 Regards,
 Rob

Read the supplied PHP documentation at:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/features.file-upload.php

The above link was from the table of contents of the manual which suggests 
that you did not even try to look this up yourself.  Secondly, this has 
nothing to do with databases and therefore has no place on this list.

Not trying to be mean really but it is inappropriate to post off topic 
questions to what is already a high volume mailing list, especially when 
the answer is readily available in the PHP manual.

Cheers,

Ron

 I am also very knew at PHP/MySQL and have been busy populating my MySQL
databases with tables (phpMyAdmin is a snap-LOL!). I am currently reading 3
different books on PHP, which also discuss use of MySQL as the back end:
Essential PHP (Julie Meloni), Beginning PHP (Wrox), and Essential PHP for
Web Professionals (Christopher Cosentino). I also bought a book
appropriately titled MySQL by Paul DuBois as additional reference for the
back end. Dont forget the web: There are also tutorials on the web that may
help also.

[PHP-DB] php-mySQL and an SQL query

2001-03-08 Thread Michael Gerholdt

Hi, folks,

Can someone insight me regarding this?

I have a datetime field in mySQL (-mm-dd hh:mm:ss) called event_time

I want to pull records hitting against this field with the idea:

where the abbreviated month from this field LIKE '$month'

and here's the SQL string I've been playing with. It works when I comment
out the line that tries to do the above with a subquery.

$strSQL = "SELECT DATE_FORMAT(event_time, '%M %e %Y, %l:%i %p'), bandname,
image ";
$strSQL .= "FROM doings, styles ";
$strSQL .= "WHERE style = musicstyle ";
$strSQL .= "AND bandname LIKE '$artist' ";
$strSQL .= "AND style LIKE '$style' ";
$strSQL .= "AND (SELECT DATE_FORMAT(event_time, '%b') FROM doings) LIKE
'$month' ";
$strSQL .= "ORDER BY event_time";
echo "$strSQLBR";

$month will be carrying the three-character short version of the alpha month
name.

I don't think it likes my subquery, though I like it just fine.

Regards,
Michael

Re: [PHP-DB] Where do I get started?

2001-03-08 Thread Adv. Systems Design

One of the best kept secrets (apparently) is to take a
program that someone else has created (preferably a
mature project that has undergone some growth and
cleaning) and learn what it does...syntax is just
that...you will see that there are about a million
ways of doing any one thing, but only certain ways
(coding style) will guarantee that your projects dont
collapse on their own obfuscated methods.

I must admit I am a newbie, but I have seen some
excellent modular, clean code on this tutorial on
building an ecommerce site (MyMarket). It is a great
departure point for many projects:

And even without the subquery, the "like" keyword expects a wildcard 
character or two, for example:

LIKE '$month%' "
