[PHP-DB] Finding the value of the COMMENT in a table column
Hi all, Anyone know how to access the optional COMMENT you can add to columns during table creation? eg. create table x (fldx char(1) COMMENT 'some comment', fldy char (1) COMMENT 'another comment') I want to 'get' the COMMENT field. I know it should be in the manual, but I can't find it. Thanks ... Ross . . Ross Honniball.

[PHP-DB] SQLite problem INSERTing string
Hello,
I am currently experiencing a problem with an INSERT statement in SQLite.
First of all an excerpt from the code:
$val = 127.0.0.1;
$query = INSERT INTO node (uri,name) VALUES (.$val.,'bla');
$db_name = mysqlite;
if($db_hdl = sqlite_open($db_name)){
$db_result = sqlite_query($db_hdl,$query);
}
I get the error message:
Warning: sqlite_query(): near .: syntax error in
C:\Programme\xampp\htdocs\dipl\testclient\sqlite_test.php on line 10
I tried addslashes (which I know I shouldn't), sqlite_escape_string, any
variant of quotes etc, I asked google and the searched the news groups
but with no relevant result, except the insight, that others experience
the same so long unsolved problem or use a syntax in their tutorials
that does not work with my code...
As you an see from the error message, I use Windows, Apache, PHP4 with
SQLite in a 2.8.14 version.
If anyone has a clue, please contact me or just answer.
Thanks in advance
Stefan

[PHP-DB] Abstraction Layer....

[PHP-DB] Re: SQLite problem INSERTing string
Hi again, first of all thanks for quick suggestions. After some more testing, I can get more specific: This might be a more general problem than the . in the error message. Even when I use $val = hello I get an equivalent error message sqlite_query(): near hello As said, I have done all the quoting stuff, so \' instead of ' was no solution either, until I tried double quotes instead of single ones, just as M Saleh Eg suggested. So the following statement finally works: $query = INSERT INTO node (uri,name) VALUES (\$val\,\\); Just for everybody else: SQLite does not support the SET statement in INSERTs, so INSERT INTO table SET attr=val would not work.

[PHP-DB] Re: Abstraction Layer....
PHP knows at least three more: dba - for databases built on Berkeley DB which can be used some DB-configurations of MySQL dbm - also very specific for dbm-format, which seems not to be a relational one. Some apps seem to use that kind of DB internally. dbx - supports about a dozen types of RDBMS (e.g. PostgreSQL and Oracle, furthermore ODBC) and is very nice. I worked with it the last four months to write a flexible information system.

[PHP-DB] Passing URL parameters, how to hide
I'm still confused over one aspect of URL parameters. As far as a form passing data back to the server, I understand about get, post and replace. Here is my problem. I have an update form. User is logged in to the system and needs to update whatever information. Right now I'm including in the link the user's ID, so when they arrive at the update page, their record will be displayed. The problem is all one has to do is change the ID number in the URL parameter in the update page and you can go to someone else's record. How do programmers generally get around this ? I must be missing something. Thank you, Stuart -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Turned out hiding the id wasn't necessary as the awaiting update page can grab the session ID. I wasn't thinking.

[PHP-DB] PHP + SSL + LDAP + IPLANET
Greetings,
(That Iplanet word must have peaked your interest...riight...)
OS: Solaris 9
CC: GCC 3.2.2
APP: Sun ONE Web Server 6.2SP2
LDAP: Sun ONE Directory Server 5.2 (configured for SSL and confirmed with non-php apps)
Configured PHP 4.3.8/or 5.1 with openssl, openldap, libxml, zlib using GCC 3.2.2 (all
latest stable versions).
Created and installed the certificates. Verified using openssl programs and ldapsearch
utils.
I have a *few* questions
a) Internet research to get ldaps working with PHP tells me that I have to setup a
HOME environment
variable for the Web Server User and dump a .ldaprc file in there, in addition to
specifying option in
the ldap.conf file. I did that in the magnus.conf file using init-cgi directive.
The Env Variable is visible to all the cgi programs. HOWEVER, the phpinfo()
command does not pick up that (and all of my other user Environment variables
such as ORACLE_HOME etc)
and hence does not see that file. phpinfo() keeps reporting that the user is root
(I don't want that!).
The Web Server runs as a non-root user.
What gives ? I read some docs but they are not clear on how to pass these env
variables..
Q: How can I make vendor/custom environment variables available for PHP running in
IPLANET server ?
b) I added the following lines to my /usr/local/openldap/etc/openldap/ldap.conf file
# Instruct client to NOT request a server's cert.
TLS_REQCERT never
# Define location of CA Cert
TLS_CACERT /usr/local/ssl/certs/AD_CA_CERT.pem
TLS_CACERTDIR /usr/local/ssl/certs
#--end--
The ldapsearch util works good and makes SSL connection to the ldap server (using
ldapsearch -H ldaps://server.tigr.org)
To test PHP's ability, I am using the connect_AD function from the PHP man page
(replicated below)
function connect_AD()
{
$ldap_server = ldaps://adserver.ad.com ;
$ldap_user = CN=web service account,OU=Service Accounts,DC=ad,DC=com ;
$ldap_pass = password ;
$ad = ldap_connect($ldap_server) ;
ldap_set_option($ad, LDAP_OPT_PROTOCOL_VERSION, 3) ;
$bound = ldap_bind($ad, $ldap_user, $ldap_pass);
return $ad ;
}
BUT the above function does not work. It just hangs at the ldap_connect stage. No
output on snoop also (tcpdump for solaris).
However, when I tried to specifiy ldap_connect (server, 636), it get's past that point
but hangs at ldap_bind.
I have a feeling that PHP under IPLANET is just not able to pick up the installed
certificates. May be connected to the fact
that I can't get it retrieve my environment variables specified in the server ... ?
Any pointers ? please ? I will summarize once i find a solution.

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: SQLite problem INSERTing string
I think I figured it out. SQLLite doesnt take single quotes as the text or varchar datatype values the strings passed to sqllite should match the data type of the column ... so ur mistake was creating a data type mismatch at the SQL lite end. hmm... thanx for the info Stefan... I never knew SQLLite doesnt support the inline Inserts using Set... thanx for that. I dont use SQLLite now.. plannin' to do that whenever possible..

RE: [PHP-DB] PHP + SSL + LDAP + IPLANET
OK - just got a bit crazier!
That function works when running on the command line.
As the root user, as the webserver user and ANY user
who can run the php command (truss on php shows that it
IS reading the ldap.conf file from /usr/local/openldap/etc)
But why does it not work from the Web Server ?!
