[PHP] Re: edit $variable online?

Hi, I have in a php page one ($variable = 85), I woud like to change the
value from this variable online, without any data base, for example ussing
a form where I can put the new value and it change the value of the
$variable.
Do you mean that you have a page like this, for example:
1.php
?php
$variable=85;
if( $variable85 ){
do things;
}
?
And you wish to permanently change the value of $variable to 86?
You could use file rewriting functions to do this. Look in the manual for
fputs, fread, fwrite and their friends.
If you wish to change the value temporarily for a single user visit
(session), use a session variable to store it. If you wish to change it for
a period of time, then perhaps consider using a class to retrieve the
variable.

[PHP] Re: PHP 5 limits readfile to 1.9 MB?
Hi,
I've had a similar problem. The download always stopped at exactly
2.000.000 bytes.
You have to work around that with:
$fp = fopen($file, 'r');
if($fp) {
while(!feof($fp)) {
echo fread($fp, 1024768);//see the huge buffer to read into
}
} else {
//whatever error handler
}

Hello all,
I am new to this list and I have searched the archives to no avail. I
am having a peculiar problem when upgrading to PHP 5: My downloads are
now limited to the first 1.9 MB of the file in question, with the
download either terminating at 1.9 MB or seemingly continuously stuck
in a downloading process at 1.9 MB. The code in the PHP script has not
changed and all parameters that I could find that are relevant to this
problem are given below:
the minimal code needed for download:
// $file_to_read is the complete path of the file to download
header(Content-Type: application/pdf);
header( Content-Disposition: inline; filename=\$filename\);
$len = filesize($file_to_read);

max_input_time = 300; Maximum amount of time each script may spend

memory_limit = 8M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may consume
(8MB)
post_max_size = 200M
upload_max_filesize = 200M
Some additional details:
All files less than 1.9 MB download fine
It is not a corrupted file, because all files larger than 1.9 MB fail
after 1.9 MB
The connection is not timing out (download of 1.9 MB takes only ~15 sec)

[PHP] PEAR and MSSQL
We are using PEAR as our database abstraction layer for connectivity to MSSQL. It seems that, for some inexplicable reason, that our code is losing it's connection to the sql server. We have a section of our site where users can come in and fill out a form to get an insurance quote. Once the form is submitted, there is quite a lot of back end database processing, both read and write, which is happening against the same set of tables for every submission. If just a few people access the site at the same time and submit the form concurrently, things are alright. But once more people start doing so, it seems to cause the sql server to hang. In the middle of the process, one of the users will run a query which causes a problem (and it's not the same every time) and in the middle of the process for the other users, when it goes to try to connect to the database again (via one of the class' that are getting instantiated and executed as part of the overall process), PEAR returns an error saying there is no database selected. The DSN has the correct data and it works when there are fewer users, but for some reason it says that the db has not been selected. So it seems that the cause of that error is in the connect method of the mssql class. We are using persistent connections but for some reason when it goes to try to execute the mssql_pconnect it seems as if the connection PHP has to MSSQL has been severed? But whatever has happened, the only resolution to the problem is restarting apache. As soon as we restart apache, everything starts working again (for the most part). Though, if multiple users go in again and submit the form, PEAR returns that same error (no database selected), the system then hangs and an apache restart is again required. I've gone through all of our code and for the life of me I cannot figure out what might be causing the connection to sever in such a way. As far as I can tell, we aren't leaving any open transactions (though, the symptoms seem to indicate that may be the root cause?) and we really aren't doing anything funky with regards to the queries we are running against the database (other than the sheer number of queries - the application requires *alot* of database processing). So I'm wondering if anyone else has run up against a problem similar to this. We've run this test against 3 different servers and the exact same thing (as described above) happens on all 3.

Re: [PHP] PEAR and MSSQL
Without wading through all the code and queries it might be difficult to give
you an exact answer, but maybe some of us can point out a 'gotcha' or two that
you can check.
One that jumps to mind that I had issues with using ADODB (abstraction layer),
and it was mostly with speed but I could see it causing other issues, is
connecting and disconnecting from the database too much.
Here's some pseudo code:
Bad -
foreach $insertlist as $insertdata {
dbconnect();
dbinsert($insertdata);
dbdisconnect();
}
Good -
dbconnect();
foreach $insertlist as $insertdata {
dbinsert($insertdata);
}
dbdisconnect();
I was doing it inadvertantly because of the way I had things structured and my
use of includes and such. Once I figured out that was causing a LOT of
slowdown, I was able to do just one connect and disconnect in a script with
lots of insert, update, select, etc statements in the middle.
It's possible for a database to reach max # connections and such. If you have a
lot of people hammering at a system at once, you may not be closing the
connection properly and/or creating too many connections. SQL Server should
handle a lot, but even it has it's limits.
A random factoid about SQL Server.. and I don't remember the specifics, but if
you use @IDENTITY (?) to grab the last inserted ID, you'll get the last
inserted ID for any user, not just the the current user who just did an insert.
I believe you use @@INDENTITY (double @ sign) to specify the current user's
last insert.
Some of our developers at my last job had an issue with hitting the wrong ID
(on a trigger I believe it was) and causing a mess. I could see where
something like that could cause a script to go nuts. Just a (probably
unrelated) 'gotcha' when it comes to SQL Server.
I'm sure someone else has some snakebites they can share :)

Re: [PHP] Re: PHP 5 limits readfile to 1.9 MB?
Catalin,
Wow, that worked great, thanks.
I'm curious why you set a static buffer of 1024768... why not just do
filesize($file), as shown at http://www.php.net/fread ? Is it better
for memory usage to have a potentially smaller buffer? Also, you may
want an fclose($fp) after the file has been downloaded.
So is this a bug in PHP 5 or are they just purposely limiting the
abilities of the readfile command?

You have to work around that with:
$fp = fopen($file, 'r');
if($fp) {
while(!feof($fp)) {
echo fread($fp, 1024768);//see the huge buffer to read into
}
} else {
//whatever error handler

The code in the PHP script has not changed and all parameters

Re: [PHP] optional argument when creating a function
apparently the ampersand means to treat $link as a reference, not as
an optional argument:
http://www.softwareprojects.org/php-functions-12.htm
I think the way to do it would be to set a default value in your
function so that if a value is set by the calling statement that
would override it:
function doEmail($username, $link = false)
{
if ($link !=== false)
{
// doEmail($arg1, $arg2); gets sent here
print $link $username;
}
else
{
// doEmail($arg1); gets sent here
print $username;
}
}
haven't tested this, but give it a try.

RE: [PHP] PEAR and MSSQL
Chris Boget wrote: We are using PEAR as our database abstraction layer for connectivity to MSSQL. It seems that, for some inexplicable reason, that our code is losing it's connection to the sql server. I've had similar problems in the past, only in my situation it was connecting from a Linux machine to MSSQL via FreeTDS. However, from your description it seems like our problems MIGHT have the same root cause. I would suggest that you try the following: (1) Disable persistent connections. This is just my own personal experience, but I've never been able to get PHP's persistent connection mechanism to work reliably, at least with MSSQL. My experience is that it causes intermittent problems which all seem to indicate that the connections eventually become unreliable or unusable, and the persistent connection code doesn't seem to be able to recover from this situation gracefully. At least with normal connections you don't have to worry about a problem with one request persisting to the next. (2) MSSQL Server seems to have a problem with applications that open many connections in rapid succession. Disabling persistent connections will exacerbate this problem, as a connection will be opened for each request. It seems these problems are caused, at least in part, by SQL server limiting the number of incoming connections it will queue up. This behavior can be controlled by adjusting MSSQL's WinsockListenBacklog setting. The default setting is 5, which means that the server will queue up a maximum of 5 incoming connections. The server will then reset any new connections that come in as long as the queue is full. In my situation, I adjusted this value to 10, and this had a HUGE affect. We still have problems from time to time, but now they are very rare and they could probably be eliminated completely by adjusting this number even higher, I just haven't gotten around to doing that yet. For more information on how to adjust the WinsockListenBacklog setting, see these MS knowledgebase articles: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=328476 http://support.microsoft.com/kb/154628/EN-US/ The following PHP bug reports seem to be related to this: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=19541 http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=29074 Try disabling persistent connections and adjusting the WinsockListenBacklog to 10 and see what results you get.

[PHP] Re: optional argument when creating a function
* D A GERM [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I'm throwing a warning on a function I created. I
thought a in front of the argument was supposed to
make it optional. Is there something else I need to do
make that argument optional?
As others have noted, the ampersand tells the function to grab a
reference to the variable passed.
There are two ways to do optional arguments:
1) Set a default value for the argument (must be last argument in the
list, or else all other arguments in the list must also have default
values):
function doEmail($username, $link = null) {}
function doEmail($username, $link = null, $linkName = '') {}
2) Parse the argument list via the func_* functions:
function doEmail($username)
{
$argCount = func_num_args();
if (1 $argCount) {
// Retrieve second argument, from a 0-based array:
$link = func_get_arg(1);
}
...
}
function doEmail($username)
{
$argCount = func_num_args();
if (1 $argCount) {
// Retrieve all arguments
$args = func_get_args();
// Remove $username from it
array_shift($args);
// Get $link:
$link = array_shift($args);

And you wish to permanently change the value of $variable to 86?
You could use file rewriting functions to do this. Look in the manual for
fputs, fread, fwrite and their friends.
If you wish to change the value temporarily for a single user visit

The form works beautifully thanks to help from Jochem Mass and Kathleen
Ballard.
I now have a slightly different problem...I have built an email form to send
the form data.
I copied and used the following code which works great in the sticky
form.
if (isset($_POST['gmev']) is_array($_POST['gmev'])) {
foreach ($_POST['gmev'] as $gmev_day) {
print pYou have registered for the: b$gmev_day/b Good Morning East
Valley Event./p;
}
} else {
print 'You are not registered for any events!';
}
The results is this:
You have registered for the: September 9th Good Morning East
Valley Event.
Now when I use the same code modified for the form mailer I am getting this
result.
if (isset($_POST['gmev']) is_array($_POST['gmev'])) {
foreach ($_POST['gmev'] as $gmev_day) {
$msg .= You have registered for the: $gmev_day Good Morning East Valley
Event.\n;
}
} else {
$mgs .= You are not registered for any events!;
}
result is - You have registered for the: on Good Morning East
Valley Event.
I am missing the value of the variable even though I am receiving all the
instances of the variables from the checkboxes. When they are selected, they
are present.
I really don't know what to do about correcting the problem. Any guidance
here would really be appreciatedand...go easy on me...I am new to PHP
Thanks before hand...

Re: [PHP] Help correcting a form mailer problem...
I would first start out by dumping the values of $_POST['gmev'] by using
print_r($_POST['gmev']);
Sounds to me like you're not getting the data that your expecting
from the form for some reason. Maybe $_POST['gmev'] is an array of
null values?
-Good Luck

Re: [PHP] mail()
Did you install sendmail? http://www.php.net/mail Requirements For the Mail functions to be available, PHP must have access to the sendmail binary on your system during compile time. If you use another mail program, such as qmail or postfix, be sure to use the appropriate sendmail wrappers that come with them. PHP will first look for sendmail in your PATH, and then in the following: /usr/bin:/ usr/sbin:/usr/etc:/etc:/usr/ucblib:/usr/lib. It's highly recommended to have sendmail available from your PATH. Also, the user that compiled PHP must have permission to access the sendmail binary.

[PHP] ob_start changed from php4 to php5?
Hello,
I have a function catching the output of a script:
function encodeDomain ($domain) {
ob_start();
system(echo '$domain');
$output = ob_get_contents();
ob_end_clean();
}
And I have a php-script using this function:
?
encodeDomain($domain);
header(Location: http://www.php.net;);
?
While this worked fine in PHP4, with PHP5.0.4 I always get the following
error:
Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent in
test.php on line 4
The redirect works if I don't use the encodeDomain() function. Does the
system-output affect the php-outout status in any way? I checked the raw
http-output and I can see nothing of the output from the system()-call.
Does maybe PHP simply say output has been send although it hasn't been
send actually?

Re: [PHP] Re: optional argument when creating a function
Thank you everyone for your help.
I tried this and it worked with throwing any errors.
CODE
function doEmail($username, $link = null)
/CODE

* D A GERM [EMAIL PROTECTED]:
I'm throwing a warning on a function I created. I
thought a in front of the argument was supposed to
make it optional. Is there something else I need to do
make that argument optional?
As others have noted, the ampersand tells the function to grab a
reference to the variable passed.
There are two ways to do optional arguments:
1) Set a default value for the argument (must be last argument in the
list, or else all other arguments in the list must also have default
values):
function doEmail($username, $link = null) {}
function doEmail($username, $link = null, $linkName = '') {}
2) Parse the argument list via the func_* functions:
function doEmail($username)
{
$argCount = func_num_args();
if (1 $argCount) {
// Retrieve second argument, from a 0-based array:
$link = func_get_arg(1);
}
...
}
function doEmail($username)
{
$argCount = func_num_args();
if (1 $argCount) {
// Retrieve all arguments
$args = func_get_args();
// Remove $username from it
array_shift($args);
// Get $link:
$link = array_shift($args);
}
...

This doesn't help with your ob problem, but if you simply want to

Wow, that worked great, thanks.
I'm curious why you set a static buffer of 1024768... why not just
do filesize($file), as shown at http://www.php.net/fread ? Is it
better for memory usage to have a potentially smaller buffer?
Also, you may want an fclose($fp) after the file has been
downloaded.
So is this a bug in PHP 5 or are they just purposely limiting the
abilities of the readfile command?

Hello all,
I am new to this list and I have searched the archives to no
avail. I am having a peculiar problem when upgrading to PHP 5:
My downloads are now limited to the first 1.9 MB of the file
in question, with the download either terminating at 1.9 MB
or seemingly continuously stuck in a downloading process at
1.9 MB. The code in the PHP script has not changed and all
parameters that I could find that are relevant to this problem
are given below:
the minimal code needed for download:
// $file_to_read is the complete path of the file to
download
header(Content-Type: application/pdf);
header( Content-Disposition: inline; filename=
\$filename \);
$len = filesize($file_to_read);
header(Content-Length: $len);
@readfile($file_to_read);
php.ini file for both php version 4 and 5 contain the
following settings that may be relevant:
allow_url_fopen = On
max_execution_time = 300 ; Maximum execution time of each
script, in seconds
max_input_time = 300; Maximum amount of time each script
may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 8M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may
consume (8MB)
post_max_size = 200M
upload_max_filesize = 200M
Some additional details:
All files less than 1.9 MB download fine
It is not a corrupted file, because all files larger than 1.9
MB fail after 1.9 MB
The connection is not timing out (download of 1.9 MB takes only
~15 sec)
Mac OS X 10.3.9 with Marc Liyanage's PHP 5.0.4
Fails for both Safari and Firefox
Fails regardless of inline or attachment
Fails regardless of pdf or ppt content-type
This PHP code ALWAYS works for Marc Liyanage's PHP 4.3.4 with
the same settings, above
What am I doing wrong??? Any other parameter in php.ini I
should have set? Any suggestions are much appreciated.

Re: [PHP] mail()
If you want to receive e-mails from the outside, yes, you'll have to register a domain, configure an MTA to work on windows and all that jazz. Besides, if you want to manage pop, you might as well start looking at the php4-imap / php5-imap module to be able to work with POP more easily. I might be mistaken, but I believe that installing an MTA on your PC will allow you to send/receive e-mails locally. Not sure if that suffices for your sittuation though. Either way, check Jay's google queries. They might give you an insight on some MTA servers you can use (I had to code a webmail application once and I found a few free MTA servers, so I believe you'll be able to do that to without breaking a swet :) Good luck with your project!

Hi,
Indeed a fclose($fp) is needed (wrote it as an example :)).
1MB is more than enough as a buffer. If you have a 53MB file,
what will happen then ?
I have no idea if it's a bug or a feature. Either way I did lose
some hair over this when I switched from PHP4 to PHP5.

Catalin,
Wow, that worked great, thanks.
I'm curious why you set a static buffer of 1024768... why not just
do filesize($file), as shown at http://www.php.net/fread ? Is it
better for memory usage to have a potentially smaller buffer?
Also, you may want an fclose($fp) after the file has been
downloaded.
So is this a bug in PHP 5 or are they just purposely limiting the
abilities of the readfile command?

Hi,
I've had a similar problem. The download always stopped at
exactly 2.000.000 bytes.
You have to work around that with:
$fp = fopen($file, 'r');
if($fp) {
while(!feof($fp)) {
echo fread($fp, 1024768);//see the huge buffer to read into
}
} else {
//whatever error handler

Hello all,
I am new to this list and I have searched the archives to no
avail. I am having a peculiar problem when upgrading to PHP 5:
My downloads are now limited to the first 1.9 MB of the file
in question, with the download either terminating at 1.9 MB
or seemingly continuously stuck in a downloading process at
1.9 MB. The code in the PHP script has not changed and all
parameters that I could find that are relevant to this problem
are given below:
the minimal code needed for download:
// $file_to_read is the complete path of the file to
download
header(Content-Type: application/pdf);
header( Content-Disposition: inline; filename=
\$filename \);
$len = filesize($file_to_read);
header(Content-Length: $len);
@readfile($file_to_read);
php.ini file for both php version 4 and 5 contain the
following settings that may be relevant:
allow_url_fopen = On
max_execution_time = 300 ; Maximum execution time of each
script, in seconds
max_input_time = 300; Maximum amount of time each script
may spend parsing request data
memory_limit = 8M ; Maximum amount of memory a script may
consume (8MB)
post_max_size = 200M
upload_max_filesize = 200M
Some additional details:
All files less than 1.9 MB download fine
It is not a corrupted file, because all files larger than 1.9
MB fail after 1.9 MB
The connection is not timing out (download of 1.9 MB takes only
~15 sec)
Mac OS X 10.3.9 with Marc Liyanage's PHP 5.0.4
Fails for both Safari and Firefox
Fails regardless of inline or attachment
Fails regardless of pdf or ppt content-type
This PHP code ALWAYS works for Marc Liyanage's PHP 4.3.4 with
the same settings, above
What am I doing wrong??? Any other parameter in php.ini I
should have set? Any suggestions are much appreciated.
thanks,
Jordan

Re: [PHP] Help correcting a form mailer problem...
wherever you think you are adding data to the gmev array, you are
merely adding the on string. I would search your script for the
string on and you will find the problem.
what you need is the value in the HTML form to be the text you want
inserted into the array, such as:
input type=checkbox name=gmev[1] value=September 9th

[PHP] Re: Problem using Metabase
Hello, on 08/16/2005 10:17 PM Pablo Gosse said the following: [snip] I suspect that the problem is with file permissions. I recall that since Metabase uses include to load class files, the script will not exit when it fails to include a PHP class file. Assuming that is the case, make sure that all Metabase class files are readable by your Web server user. [/snip] The permissions seem fine. However, I've discovered something else. I was able to use Metabase without any trouble on a linux server to access a Postgres database. I then removed the call to MetabaseSetDatabase and changed the drive to odbc-msaccess, and the errors returned. Changed it back to pgsql or mysql and the errors go away. I just now tried this on the IIS box and got the same results. If I specify postgres I get an error telling me that postgres is not enabled in that php implementation, and if I specify mysql it works fine. If I change it back to odbc-msaccess, the errors are there. So, the error message I get is only triggered when I specify Access as the database. Does this provide any further insight? Not really but I looked again at your error message and sample script and realized a few things that seem to be the problem. Your error message said: Fatal error: Class metabase_manager_odbc_class: Cannot inherit from undefined class metabase_manager_database_class in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\etrakFE\classes\metabase\metabase_odbc.php on line 13 There is no class definition on line 13 of metabase_odbc.php . That definition is in manager_odbc.php. So I wonder if you did not typed the error message with inadverted changes. In your example you call SetDatabase. That does not make Metabase load the ODBC driver schema manager extension. I suspect that you meant CreateDatabase. That would trigger the extension class loading and eventual errors. If you are sure permissions are ok, the only other possibility to make the class loading include fail is incorrect include path. I suspect you need to specify absolute path to make it work. What is your include path in php.ini? Anyway, I changed Metabase base class to make it gracefully fail (not make PHP exit with a fatal error) if any of the extension include files does not load properly for some reason. Please try the updated version getting it from CVS or a current snapshot that you can download from here: http://www.meta-language.net/download.html#snapshots Metabase is inside the archive: http://www.meta-language.net/download/metal-cvs.zip or http://www.meta-language.net/download/metal-cvs.tar.gz Once you use this version your script should no longer exit with a fatal error. It should fail but a call to $db-Error() should return a meaningful error message. -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

for each checkbox and have it come through. I have written scripts
that do this, and here is another example:

[PHP] DB access and sessions
Hello- I'm developing a web-based system whereby users can edit documents and then e-mail the documents to selected recipients. The documents are comprised of the data from several MySQL fields. I want to make sure that two people don't edit a document at the same time. My users log in via a script that starts a session. My initial idea was to have a field to denote file access (1 for in use 0 for available). The problem with this would be if a user navigates to a different page or closes the browser window without clicking a save or close button (which would execute a query to set the in_use field to 0). I'm sure others have dealt with the issue of exclusive access to a MySQL resource. I've looked into InnoDB transactional support, but that doesn't seem to be what I need, since I'm not overly concerned about simultaneously access, just simultaneous editing. How can I ensure the document isn't accessed by two people at the same time? Thanks, Bret smime.p7s Description: S/MIME Cryptographic Signature
Re: [PHP] DB access and sessions
Since you can't be sure to be notified when a user stops editing a page, whatever solution you choose will probably involve some sort of timeout-based system. (e.g. when someone starts editing a page, set a last_opened time field on the resources, and when someone else tries to edit the same page, check to see if last opened is in the last 30 mins). If you combine this with an ajax/iframe reload, you can be much more precise (e.g. while someone is editing a document, have their browser hit a designated url every 60 seconds; when the repeated hits stop, you know they're done) Since no such system is absolutely positively foolproof, you'll probably want to look into optimistic locking if you want to guarantee that no one's changes are accidentally overwritten.

[PHP] sending HTML (incl. embedded images) to browser
Hi List, I am a PHP newbie, pardon the elementary question - I am starting out with using print() to send HTML to the browser to be rendered. All is well with text and tables and other HTML formatting, but when trying to send IMG tags, my images aren't getting displayed. Is there a good tutorial out there (I can't seem to find it) on how to send HTML to a browser where the HTML includes IMG tags with links to image files? If I need to set up the filepaths with variables I can figure that out, but not sure what functions to use to set the paths up. Thanks for any pointers! -Jake
Re: [PHP] Help correcting a form mailer problem...
Ted,
On your sticky page, your checkbox input commands no longer have
their corresponding value attributes. Just add those back in, and
you will be all set (you only have the value attribute set on the
event_reg.php page, NOT on the event_reg_calc.php page). This is your
only problem.
i.e. change the code so that the output here:
http://www.passeycorp.com/event_reg_calc.php
will change from this:
input name=gmev[] type=checkbox id=gmev checked=checked/
to this:
input name=gmev[] type=checkbox id=gmev value=September 9th
checked=checked/

Re: [PHP] sending HTML (incl. embedded images) to browser
Hi Jake, You don't have to do anything special, you just have to have standards compliant HTML output. What is the HTML for the IMG tag output to the browser (i.e. go to the web browser, load the page in question, find the img tag, and send us this text). I think maybe your images are just not in the right directory or are not being referenced correctly. also, what is the actual PHP code used to print the img tag? maybe you're not escaping quotes correctly...?

Re: [PHP] sending HTML (incl. embedded images) to browser
i think using echo 'img src=url/to/image/'; should display the image. if you want to make that image a link you should use: echo 'a href=your/linkimg src=url/to/image//a'; of course, you can use print or echo to send the output to the browser

[PHP] True Upload Max Filesize
Does anybody have a function handy to calculate/compute the True maximum upload filesize -- one that encompasses php.ini limits such as upload_max_filesize and post_max_size, as well as httpd.conf RequestBodyLimit, and maybe even takes an argument for the speed of the network connection to multiply with max_input_time to predict for the user EXACTLY how much they can upload before they start? Ideally, you've already thought of any other factors in httpd.conf of which I am unaware... Is it still the case that altering upload_max_filesize in .htaccess or the FORM will take the minimum of those values, rather than over-riding?... I guess I could test that last one by setting up a dev box just for that purpose while not messing up all the other work happening on that box... Or uploading some monster file and waiting an hour or two for it to finish...

Re: [PHP] DB access and sessions
We use a combination of timeout and user who has locked the record in a form e.g. User A opens the form. A record id is stored in the page and the db record has 3 cols - is_locked (y/n), locked_by (user_id) locked_time (datetime) B then opens the form. If the record is locked more then 5 minutes has passed then B's ID will then be updated into the table and a new locked_time set. If it's locked and within the time an error message pops up saying Record locked by XYZ for another 3 minutes. If user A comes back in 10 minutes and submits, the sys checks if his user id is in the locked_by col, and then alerts him that his 5 minutes were up and he needs to refresh. It's never let us down.

Re: [PHP] Re: run remote shell script
OK. I am able to setup remote key authentication between svrA and svrB. From
svrA I can login to svrB with something like
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www]$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and I can also execute a shell script like
[EMAIL PROTECTED] www]$ ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh
On svrA I have a PHP script like so:
?
system('ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] /tmp/test.sh someDIR');
?
/tmp/test.sh on svrB is only a one liner like so:
mkdir /tmp/$1
I ran the script from the browser but the /tmp/someDIR is not created :(
Could it be that user nobody on svrA is *not* allowed to connect to svrB
because the public key belongs to user www ? How do I rectify this ?
In the actual situation, I need to execute a shell script in svrB (from browser
served by Apache on svrA) that only root can run. Please advise. I am getting
very worried.

My PHP script is in svrA. How do I run a shell script in svrB?
svrB does not have PHP and Apache :(
Is this at all possible? Please advise.
Use ssh. You will have to setup remote key authentication from svrA to
svrB (so that a password will not be needed), and then in your script
you would call:
system('ssh svrB /path/to/scriptToRun');
