[PHP-DB] Bug in interbase.c (Ver. 5.2.6) INVALID BLOB ID
Hi! Ay many other users recognized, there is a bug in the implementation of the function _php_ibase_quad_to_string. (imho since version 5.2.1) The line spprintf(result, BLOB_ID_LEN+1, 0x%0* LL_MASK x, 16, *(ISC_UINT64*)(void *) qd); doesnt work as estimated. The result stored inside qd isnt the value convertet from the string, but something else. Normally this should work, but it doesnt. One possible solution is, to change the line into spprintf(result, BLOB_ID_LEN+1, 0x%0*x%0*x, 8, qd.gds_quad_low, 8, qd.gds_quad_high); Of course, this solution isnt the fine way ... but it works. The problem occured onto a 64bit System (Fedora Core 8). Greetings Benjamin -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP Beginners Help
Ben:
First, using a $_POST value directly into a MySQL query is EXTREMELY
unsafe. Always filter data from any source to make sure it's what you
expect. SQL injection is one of the easiest ways to cause real damage
to a website. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SQL_injection
Check out this fuction for making the string safe:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.mysql-real-escape-string.php
Also, try and strip out any characters that don't belong in the string
anyway, just as added security.
Good luck learning PHP.

Hello, my name is Ben Stones. I am quite a beginner to PHP, and as a new

Cut to the chase I have created a basic looping script that would display
anything submitted in a form, on seperate lines; here is the PHP code:
$con = mysql_connect(localhost,ben_test,--removed-) or
die(con);
$db = mysql_select_db(ben_test) or die(db);
mysql_query(CREATE TABLE `comments` (messages varchar(255)));
$comments = $_POST['comment'];
$sql1 = mysql_query(INSERT INTO `comments` (`messages`) VALUES
($comments));
$mysql_query_one = mysql_query(SELECT * FROM `comments`);
while($rows=mysql_fetch_array($mysql_query_one)) {
echo $rows['messages'] . [br /];
}
Everything went swell for the first half, and after I truncated the test
messages (or everything in the column, if you like), I tried doing one more
test run and upon clicking 'Submit', nothing would display except the
messages I added via phpMyAdmin.
Hope someone could help me.

One possible solution is to select from the database only the first 50
characters for display in the initial page: SELECT left(FieldName,
50)
FROM tablename;
Once a user has chosen the articles they would like to read, run
another
query and select the entire content field.

hi all,
I my querying two tables in mysql the first table I query returns a list of software
that I have.
Then I query a second table that show me what is installed on a computer.
I would then like to be able to display the first list but with a tick next to
software installed on a computer.
I have treid with making a function that reuten the full list of software but can not
get it to to work function below.
function software_list($software) # Software is a word or it can be empty.
{
$db_search = SELECT software_name
FROM software_list
WHERE software_name
LIKE '.$software.%';
$db_result = mysql_query($db_search);
$db_count = mysql_num_rows($db_result);
while($sw_result = mysql_fetch_array($db_result)){
$temp = $sw_result[software_name];
for($i=0;$icount($temp); $i++){
$sw_list = $temp;
}
return $sw_list;
}
}
But when I go to print the return values in $sw_list all I get is my first value
so can I get a full list to be return. I have been trying to print it by using the
following
for($i=0; $icount(software_list($sw_list));$i++){
print software_list($sw_list);
}
If any one can help with the comparing of the two list and then display a tick next
too any match that would be a great help too.
Thank you

Are you doing some kind of recursion and getting stuck or overflowing the
stack?
If you create something like:
function Factorial($x)
{
if ($x == 1)
{
return $x;
}
else
{
return $x * Factorial($x-1);
}
}
You can get into a problem with overflowing the call stack with a
sufficiently high value for $x.

I'm having a heck of a time trying to write a little web crawler for my
intranet. I've got everything functionally working it seems like, but
there is a very strange problem I can't nail down. If I put in an entry
and start the crawler it goes great through the first loop. It gets the
url, gets the page info, puts it in the database, and then parses all of
the links out and puts them raw into the database. On the second loop it
picks up all the new stuff and does the same thing. By the time the
second loop is completed I'll have just over 300 items in the database.
On the third loop is where the problem starts. Once it gets into the
third loop, it starts to slow down a lot. Then, after a while, if I'm
running from the command line, it'll just go to a command prompt. If I'm
running in a browser, it returns a document contains no data error.
This is with php 4.3.1 on a win2000 server. Haven't tried it on a linux
box yet, but I'd rather run it on the windows server since it's bigger
and has plenty of cpu, memory, and raid space. It's almost like the
thing is getting confused when it starts to get more than 300 entries in
the database. Any ideas out there as to what would cause this kind of
problem?

Oh. Is it really a TIME field, not TIMESTAMP? In this case you would compare a time (without date) with a whole datetime value from NOW(). These values cannot be compared reasonable. Additionally +- INTERVAL only works on DATE or DATETIME/TIMESTAMP values, otherwise you have to use DATE_SUB/DATE_ADD. In this case, you would need something like SELECT EDIT_LOCK FROM ordmaster WHERE EDIT_LOCK DATE_FORMAT( NOW() - INTERVAL 10 MINUTE, %T ) AND ORDER_NO = '5' AND EDIT_LOCK 0; This does not handle the special cases on day change, but I presume that this already had been thought of, or else a TIME instead of a DATETIME field makes no sense.

[PHP-DB] Re: Complicated query on very simple database - pointers sought
Look into Aggregate Functions. They can let you do the things that you are looking for. SELECT Month(OrderDate) as 'Month', Count(DISTINCT Customer) as 'NumCustomersOrdering', Count(Customer) as 'TotalOrders' FROM tbl_Orders GROUP BY Month(OrderDate) will give you a list of months, and the number of Customer Orders. Throw in a distinct if you want to know how many different customers ordered. The GROUP BY clause basically tells it when to reset the counter. You can get sums, averages, counts, etc using aggregates.

[PHP-DB] Re: PHP Mysql Select Distinct problem
MessageAccording to http://www.mysql.com/doc/D/I/DISTINCT_optimisation.html, DISTINCT is converted to a GROUP BY on all columns, DISTINCT combined with ORDER BY will in many cases also need a temporary table.

Re: [PHP-DB] Re: Question about ODBC databases
Write a simple web service. Put a few PHP pages on the NT server, which take parameters, and return results. For example, create a function that takes a string (sql statement, eg) as a parameter, and echos a comma delimited page (the resulting recordset). Then, on the Linux/Unix box, use the HTTP methods to call the page, passing the string and then parses the output. I've done this with ASP to interact with some VB programs that some of our remote sites use. It works well. Anthony [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message [EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]... That is not entirely what I'm trying to do. What I need is for the NT server that is running ODBC to respond to remote requests from other servers or clients. In other words, I need computer A to access database on computer B which is running ODBC. Computer A does not have ODBC, I need computer a to be able to query against computer B as if it were a SQL server.

Why not yank the quoted terms out before using split? Search for patterns .* and put them in a separate array. Once those are gone, split the remaining string.

Re: [PHP-DB] mssql_fetch_array not working?
It's the ';' at the end of the while statement. It runs the loop with no
statements in it, then executes the code in brackets. I copied some bum
code from a tutorial...
Peter Lovatt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message

hi
The code looks OK
Try something like
while ($row = mssql_fetch_array($rs));
{
echo another rowbr;
echo $row[ItemClassKey];
echo br;
}
}
to see if it is looping thro the results, if so then the array
$row[ItemClassKey] is empty - check the obvious - index case and that
there is data in the field in the record.
If it is not looping thro then could the if($rs) be moving the pointer to
the end of he result set, so there is nothing left to loop thro?

[PHP-DB] Install SAPDB with Apache and PHP
I got SAPDB (7.3) to compile with the apache (1.3.24) and php (4.1.2) under AIX (4.3.3) without failures and it seems to run. It is quite easy after all, but I had to do a lot of research to get the knowledge: ---START--- cd apache /configure cd ../php /configure --with-apache=../apache --with-sapdb=/usr/sapdb/depend make make install cd ../apache LIBS=/lib/libposix4.so export LIBS /configure --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a make ---STOP--- For me it worked without configuring the LIBS path. Done so, I got a compile error. But the guide up there was for Solaris. The basic thing to know is the path to use for the --with-sapdb statement.

[PHP-DB] Re: Table Locking...
Hi. Please stop cross-posting and use the appropriate forum. On Wed, Nov 21, 2001 at 03:27:23PM -0700, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: (PHP-DB folks, ignore this top question - unless you want to answer) Which type of DB/Table provides table locking while a process is altering data? ISAM and MyISAM. BDB has page locking. InnoDB has row locking. I don't care for locking while using SELECTs, but I do need locking when something's being INSERTed or UPDATEd, so I won't get two processes trying to do the same darned thing at the same time. Well, the above was about implicit locking. If you use LOCK TABLE, you will always get the whole table locked, I think. (MySQL folks, ignore this bottom question - unless you want to answer) I'm trying to go through a table and check for a particular information. If it doesn't exist, then go ahead and issue an INSERT with the relevant data. The next time another process comes along, it'll obviously find the information and issue an UPDATE instead. But, what happens if I get two processes running at the same time, trying to find information that does not exist yet? You will get concurrency problems. More serious answer: There are several solutions to this problem. One is the beforementioned LOCK TABLE. If both issue a SELECT and find the information not there, both will try to issue an INSERT, where really I want one of those processes to wait for the first one to finish doing whatever it needs to do, prior to continuing. (all of this is being done in PHP by the way). Does anyone have any suggestions for this scenario (or am I just blowing smoke out my arse and there's something else, internally, that I'm not aware of?) No. You have to program your application to take care of this. How should MySQL know that are want to issue a INSERT after the SELECT? When (and how) to issue some sort of wait state for one process while the other's finishing what it needs to do, then restart the second process (which should re-check for existing information, and not blindly issue another INSERT right after the first one). Another method is assure uniqueness via keys and to simply issue the INSERT and retry with an UPDATE if the INSERT failed (because the row already existed). In this case you don't need LOCK TABLE.

[PHP-DB] Re: Connection closing problem!
Hi. It looks like you are using persistent connections with SQL server, but not with MySQL (time_wait and close_wait are states of a TCP connection after it was closed by the appliction). I don't know much about PHP, but there is somewhere a option to influence whether you want persistent connections or not. Second, what is MySQL telling (mysqladmin processlist with MySQL-root privileges). Are there sleeping connections (persistent connections) or not (no persistent connections). Bye, Benjamin.
