Maybe you need to configure FastCGI for more processes - 500 could be result of getting more requests than there are processes to handle them. How would I do that? The easiest way would be to open WINDOWS/system32/inetsrv/fcgiext.ini and edit the MaxInstances parameter for PHP binary there/ Then you'd need to restart the IIS. -- Stanislav Malyshev, Zend Products Engineer [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.zend.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

If you really want to study this, try opening every different image

each of the header files via a HEX editor. You will find that every
file has an id of some type in it's header.
The php functions that provide data about files, do just that. They
inspect the header of the file and report what they have found. How
you use them, is your business.
Well, from the example it looks like that's returning a string that
can go straight into the header() function...
?php
$size = getimagesize($filename);
$fp=fopen($filename, rb);
if ($size $fp) {
header(Content-type: {$size['mime']});
fpassthru($fp);
exit;
} else {
// error
}
?
whereas index 2 in the array returns an integer that corresponds to
the IMAGETYPE_* constants. I would assume they both get the
information from the same place, but just return it in different
formats based on the intended usage. Just like index 3 will get you a
string of 'width=? height=?' to add to an image tag, while index 0
and 1 returns an integer of width and height respectively.
I can get the width and height from index 3, but that's not what it
was designed for.

[PHP] PHP 6: Mysql with iso-8859-1 chars outputting utf-8: Could not convert binary string to Unicode string
Hello!
I have a MySQL database where all tables are in the latin1 character set, with
accented (Portuguese) characters.
In my php.ini I have
; Unicode settings ;
unicode.semantics = on
unicode.runtime_encoding = iso-8859-1
unicode.script_encoding = iso-8859-1
unicode.output_encoding = utf-8
unicode.from_error_mode = U_INVALID_SUBSTITUTE
unicode.from_error_subst_char = 3f
unicode.fallback_encoding = iso-8859-1
because all my files and data in mysql server are in iso-8859-1.
When connecting to mysql I issue:
mysql_query('set names latin1', $this-mysql_link);
but when I do query in any record that have accented characters I get this
warning (using mysql_fetch_assoc):
--
Could not convert binary string to Unicode string (converter UTF-8 failed on
bytes (0xE7) at offset 9)
--
for all accented characters in all fields.
If I changed the set names query to:
mysql_query('set names utf8', $this-mysql_link);
it works, but I would like to keep compatibility with PHP 5, and for my
application it requires set names to be latin1. Also, my databases are not
created with the utf8 option.
As I understood PHP 6's unicode support, all string characters (including mysql
result values) are converted from unicode.runtime_encoding to unicode (utf-16),
but looks like it is trying to convert from ASCII, which does not have all the
accented characters. Am I assuming right? How to make mysql_fetch_assoc assume
field values are in iso-8859-1 instead of ASCII?
Thanks,
Rangel Reale
[PHP] small picture into thumbnail
Hi, I would like to know how i can display small sized picture in my web application ? I mean in my database, picture can have max. 500 Kb, however as on 1 PHP page i will display 20 pictures at once, i do not want to force end users to download all 20 pictures (10Mb around) to have an overview. I would like directly on server to resize picture to display them to end user in format 100px*120px (for example) and like that size should be around 20 or 50Kb per picture. I was thinking to use imagecopyresized function for that, but will it no kill the server CPU and RAM ? If you have some other suggestion, they are welcome, but do not forget that i must have pictures in Database and 500 Kb (due to picture printing later on - so good enough quality). thanks a lot, -- Alain Windows XP SP2 PostgreSQL 8.1.4 Apache 2.0.58 PHP 5

Create the thumbnail once and cache it. On subsequent requests check if thumbnail exists, if so use the cache. If not build from original image. This way you incur the heavy CPU hit once for each image requested. This take more disk space though, but not terribly.

It was designed to provide information. As I said you use it as you
want. Index 3 could have been used in and image tag, or in a report
of the image -- whatever you can find a use for it, use it.
The above example uses 'mime' for a header, but the below code uses
it more directly.

Whatever floats your boat.

RE: [PHP] single signon Solution php and .net
The first thing that comes to my mind is to use a database to handle session data as defined by: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.session-set-save-handler.php. You can then, when attempting to authenticate, pass the session ID back and forth through your applications.

That will be your problem. A cookie created on domain.com is ONLY

Check out 'session.cookie_domain', you can set it with an ini_set call:

You will have to find that information out through whoever your host is. There is no one configuration for that. The first question to ask is did you create a MySQL database? If you did, then find out whatever the host was for doing that. Many times, your host will put it at mysql.___domainname___.com, so since you have spanishbyproz.com, you can probably try mysql.spanishbyproz.com. -Logan -Original Message- From: Stephen Hernandez [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, April 29, 2007 7:29 PM To: php-general@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP] FW: I really need help I have literally just started using php and my sql so I really hope somebody can help me and I am addressing the right people as I don't want to be a pain in the neck.

When the page opens, connect to server (this works fine). Look for session, if no session is found, look for phpbb session (two different session possibilities) Reading through the phpbb site, it say I must have the code that is in include './phpbb/login_global.php' Brad -Original Message- From: Tijnema !

RE: [PHP] phpbb / sessionid nightmare
You might be hitting the nail on the head.
That is why I am trying to get crafty and look for two sessions.
But, give me a sec and follow your lead!
I am back on this project now and finishing laundry at the same time.
Thank you sir!

That will be your problem. A cookie created on domain.com is ONLY
readable by domain.com (unless you make it '.domain.com' which is
technically different to 'domain.com').
Check out 'session.cookie_domain', you can set it with an ini_set call:
ini_set('session.cookie_domain', '.domain.com');
See http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php
and http://www.php.net/setcookie for more info about how cookie domains
work.

The cookie domain in phpbb is already set at ./domain.com
??
I think I need to go back to my little hack?
Opinions?

Re: [PHP] Running processes in windows
Nathan Wallis wrote: Howdy. I have an application in windows that I am running with a PHP page using exec (start..

If multiple people access a page with such a statement, what toll does it take on the server and is there a better way to manage calls to the server side executable? When this statement is called a command prompt window appears for the duration of the execution. I am guessing it would be possible to crash the server if thousands of these processes we created at around the same timejust anyone experience would be greatly appreciated. I think you can probably stop that from happening (no idea how - maybe ask the php-windows list), but it depends on what happens in that command prompt. If you're doing a simple thing, then it won't do much. If you're doing a database dump or something else I/O and/or processor intensive, of course it's going to take a toll on the server (regardless of the operating system). -- Postgresql php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Delete first line of a csv file if it is the headers
The below script will parse a csv file to a database I need to remove
the first line because it is the header files and I don't need them. How can
I test for that and remove them.
$file = fopen($_POST['copy'], 'r') or $message .= Could not open .
$_POST[copy] . for reading.BR\n;
while (!feof($file)){
# We could easily be importing 10,000 records. Give us
some time here, okay?
set_time_limit(30);
$fields = fgetcsv($file, 100);
if ($fields count($fields)){
$recordcount++;
# Wipe out every possible field, in case they have
some missing:
reset($possiblefields);
while (list(,$fieldname) = each($possiblefields)){
$$fieldname = '';
}
reset($_POST['fieldorder']);
$fieldcount = 0;
$notes = '';
while (list(,$field) = each($fields)){
$fieldname =
$_POST['fieldorder'][$fieldcount++];
if ($fieldname == 'notes'){
$notes .= addslashes($field\n);

You don't need this loop. fgetcsv will do it for you (see the example at
http://php.net/fgetcsv
# We could easily be importing 10,000 records. Give us
some time here, okay?
set_time_limit(30);
and you're setting this with every line in the file.. probably not what
you intended.
From the php page but slightly modified:
$row = 0;
$handle = fopen(test.csv, r);
while (($data = fgetcsv($handle, 1000, ,)) !== FALSE) {
$row++;
if ($row == 1) {
echo Found headers, skipping\n;
continue;
}
$num = count($data);
echo p $num fields in line $row: br /\n;
}
snip
if ($fieldname == 'notes'){
$notes .= addslashes($field\n);
If you're putting this into a database you should look to use the
relevant _escape_string functions (eg mysql_real_escape_string or
pg_escape_string) because they handle quotes character sets a lot
smarter than addslashes does.
# Note that file data is not Magic-Quoted:
$$fieldname = addslashes($field);
Same here.

RE: [PHP] phpbb / sessionid nightmare
Wait, you might be on to something! Phpbb is set to ./domain But, on the page I find nothing related to domain This is a new page. Think about it as a blank .php page first.

Re: [PHP] Changing Session Timeout
I did some more investigating, and tracked down the problem.
Apparently, even though i was setting a separate save_path inside the
default save path the garbage collector was still picking up the
sessions in that directory.
I moved the session save_path dir to a separate location and the
sessions were removed according to the ini settings. The 1 weird thing
I noticed is that the session cookie on the client PC is not getting set
properly. I am trying to set a session timeout of 3 hours, the server
is set to GMT time, and the client PC is set to CST time. The cookie on
the client PC reports that it has an expiration time of 1.5 hours
instead of 3. Does anyone have any ideas why thats happening?

The above is not the order of your code, is it?
If so, move session_start(); to the top, namely the first line of
code.
I don't think you want to do that...
You want all those settings to take effect BEFORE you actually
start the session which sends out the headers.

[PHP] PHP MySQL - Field Title
Good Morning guys and girls
As I am rather lazy, I don't wanna do a data readout on my MySQL table in
the following way with mysql_fetch_assoc()
$data_item1=$data['xitem1'];
$data_item2=$data['yitem2];
I am trying to do the following:
I have the correct number of fields in the table, which is 116. Now I want
to use a for-loop and read teh data into a string, then shove it into
another table, which has the exact same layout. I was thinking about
something like
for($i=0; $i= 115; $i++) {
$data_item[$i]=$data[$i];
}
but now I have the problem with the field names and all... can someone point
me into the right direction? All I have to so is move the contents of one
field to the second database wich has the same layout as the first DB.
Would be thankful for any help :o)
Cheers!
Chris
