RE: [PHP] Fixing the path

2009-09-14 Thread Arno Kuhl
-Original Message-
From: Rico Secada [mailto:coolz...@it.dk] 

Some time ago I developed a small web application that a bunch of users has
installed.

I have always used the DOCUMENT_ROOT for my includes, but the other day I
installed the application in a subdirectory, and as you've guessed a lot of
the includes didn't work.

I have been reading up on the subject of absolute vs. relative paths etc.
And on the subject of defining your own document root.

I need the application to be as user friendly as possible, and I would like
to avoid having users enter path details in the configuration.

What is the best way to solve this problem?

Rico.
--

Who are your users? Can users download the script and run it on their own
servers? If so there shouldn't be a problem asking them to set a path in a
config file because presumably the users would know something about servers
and paths, and presumably they'll know enough to create the directory and
copy the files there in the first place.

If you have an install process you can pick up the current directory from
system globals and write it to the path setting in the config file. You
might need two different absolute paths, one for includes and one for urls.

Cheers
Arno

I actually wound up using swfupload because of a friend's
recommendation and also because there's a nifty jQuery plugin for  
it.


The project's main site: http://swfupload.org
The jQuery plugin I'm using:
http://blogs.bigfish.tv/adam/2009/06/14/swfupload-jquery-plugin/

The *only* issue I could find with a flash based uploader (I don't
regard flash installation as an issue because we're a video based  
site
and well, if you're using our site to watch videos...) was there's  
an

as-of-yet unresolved bug in linux flash clients that locks a browser
until upload is completed.  Adobe's bug tracker seems to be down for

Hey Eddie:

One more question...
I have an existing form that provides other data that need to be  
linked to
the file upload. It looks like swfupload, just uploads all by its  
lonesome.

I also need the javascript form validator to be triggered before any
uploading occurs. Is this possible? You don't have to tell me how  
(though I
wouldn't mind a few clues). I just want to know if it will meet my  
needs

once i dig in.

Thanks




That should all be possible.  I'd take a look at
http://demo.swfupload.org/v220/featuresdemo/index.php as that has most
of that happening on the page and you can bootleg some of their
example code :)

Bummer... It looked so promising, but on Macs, Flash has to load the  
entire file into memory to upload! R. So, it isn't viable for  
big files (Gig +) if you need it to be cross platform.


So now I am looking at perl of all things! If you have any ideas let  
me know. thanks for all your help so far.

[PHP] Re: Question: Sorting through table headers?

2009-09-14 Thread Tony Marston
What you are trying to do is ridiculously easy, and something which I 
accomplished years ago. Basically every column heading needs to be output as 
a hyperlink which repeats the current page with the addition of 
orderby=column_name in the URL. This information appears in the $_GET 
array, so you just repeat the previous sql query with the addition of an 
ORDER BY clause.

This assumes that you have already taken care of caching the query and 
paginating the results.

You cannot do this in a separate class as it requires action in both the 
presentation (UI) and data access layers, and a single class is not allowed 
to operate in more than one layer.

 when using apache with one vhost that

 e.g. domain.org, y.domain.org, x.domain.org, let's say the
 vhost's server
 name is y.domain.org and the other two are aliases, is
 there a way in php to
 know which of these was used by the user agent to address
 the server?
 
 
 Did you see what comes up with php_info() for
 $_SERVER[SERVER_NAME] or $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST] ?

SERVER_NAME returns whatever apache has as the vhost's configured server
name.

the php manual says of HTTP_HOST: Contents of the Host: header from the
current request, if there is one. in which the last 4 words are a little
off-putting. but:

http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.23

i much more encouraging. the field is mandatory and should have what i'm
looking for. it's absence is cause for a 400. casual testing (with a modern
non-ie browser) seems to bear this out.

so i'll try using that with fallback to my current techniques if i don't
find a good value in HTTP_HOST.

Honestly, uploading files that large over HTTP is probably a bad idea,
as some very important protocol features to support those filesizes
(resuming, pausing, etc.) are missing, even with a flash solution and
I'd look into the viability of something like FTP instead.

Re: [PHP] APC - Upload progress problem. apc

2009-09-14 Thread Phred White

Hey Andrea:

Ahhh yes, I've come full circle. I STARTED with php-apc. I really  
wanted an all-PHP solution, but apc_fetch() ALWAYS returns false a  
value for uploads. I can apc_add() something and apc_fetch it... but  
not for uploads : (


The apc.php summary page they supply that sows all the caching stats,  
shows upload is enabled, but no other info about upload. It seems like  
the upload is never being communicated to APC.


(my set-up: php-apc 3.0.19, Apache2, php 5.2.10, no suhosin patch, no  
FastCGI)


If I can get APC to do its basic thing, then I have the rest figured  
out (though I am going to look at your solution in more detail, thx).  
Unfortunately, I just don't know how to debug APC. No errors are  
generated - the problem is totally opaque to me.


I looked at your link, and it looks great, perhaps you have some  
insight into my narrow APC problem.


One other thing, Eddie was talking about APC not being thread-safe. I  
have heard this before, but also heard it refuted. Do you have any  
insight on this?


I am going insane, so any help you can toss my way would be most  
merciful.


Thanks, Phred

Bummer... It looked so promising, but on Macs, Flash has to load the
entire file into memory to upload! R. So, it isn't viable for
big files (Gig +) if you need it to be cross platform.

So now I am looking at perl of all things! If you have any ideas let

The reason that it might not be available is that PHP is not always 
running in a web context. $_SERVER['HOST_NAME'] would have no meaning, 
for instance, in the CLI SAPI.


However, if running under a web SAPI, and if the web server provides the 
info, PHP will pass it on to its scripts.

Having js poll a script on the server is kind of what APC was about,

RE: [PHP] APC - Upload progress problem. apc

2009-09-14 Thread Andrea Giammarchi

The concept of my last link is this:
the instant before you do the upload you ask PHP to scan the tmp folder, or the 
folder used to upload files (often the tmp) and you snap number of files, then 
the upload starts, and it will create a temp file with a PHP predefined prefix, 
you array_diff the snap with the current file list and you get the file that 
the user is uploading.

At that point if you are lucky the input=file field will give you access to 
its fileSize, and you have everything to create a progress bar: the polled 
incremental tmp file size in the server, plus the total in the client, a bit of 
transitions/effects and that's it.

This method is not ideal, generally speaking, because it could easily suffer 
concurrency between multiple users.

I did not know Flash player had to put the entire file in memory, it sounds 
truly silly for scalability reasons, are you absolutely sure about this?

About APC you need to enable it and so far I had no problems with files up to 
350 Mb , I wonder why 1Gb should be a problem.

 To: PHP General List php-general@lists.php.net
 Date: Sunday, September 13, 2009, 8:21 PM
 when using apache with one vhost that
 responds to a few different hostnames,
 e.g. domain.org, y.domain.org, x.domain.org, let's say the
 vhost's server
 name is y.domain.org and the other two are aliases, is
 there a way in php to
 know which of these was used by the user agent to address
 the server?
 
 Did you see what comes up with php_info() for
 $_SERVER[SERVER_NAME] or $_SERVER[HTTP_HOST] ?
 
 SERVER_NAME returns whatever apache has as the vhost's configured server
 name.
 
 the php manual says of HTTP_HOST: Contents of the Host: header from the
 current request, if there is one. in which the last 4 words are a little
 off-putting. but:
 
 http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.23
 
 i much more encouraging. the field is mandatory and should have what i'm
 looking for. it's absence is cause for a 400. casual testing (with a modern
 non-ie browser) seems to bear this out.
 
 so i'll try using that with fallback to my current techniques if i don't
 find a good value in HTTP_HOST.
 
 The reason that it might not be available is that PHP is not always
 running in a web context. $_SERVER['HOST_NAME'] would have no meaning,
 for instance, in the CLI SAPI.
 
 However, if running under a web SAPI, and if the web server provides the
 info, PHP will pass it on to its scripts.

and, for the record, in the web environment there's cause for caution using
either HTTP_HOST or, if UseCanonicalName is off or you can't be sure of its
value, SERVER_NAME:

  http://shiflett.org/blog/2006/mar/server-name-versus-http-host

in my current app, i should be able to match for acceptable values and fall
back to defaults on failure.

Re: [PHP] APC - Upload progress problem. apc

2009-09-14 Thread Phred White

Andrea:

I see. That is a cool idea, but you are right, concurrency could  
definitely be a problem. That's what APC is supposed to solve because  
it tags the file with a unique ID. But I can't get that sucker to  
return the value to me! If I could get APC to work I would be done.


I also started looking at trying to grab the temp file, . 
$_FILES['video_file']['tmp_name'], and then keep checking its size on  
the server, but I don't think I can get the temp name from php until  
it is uploaded. Do you know if that is possible?


One other thing, I looked at a canned media management web app ($875  
US) that will do this uploading, and it doesn't require APC, so there  
definitely is some way to do this with basic PHP.


Thanks, Phred



On Sep 14, 2009, at 1:55 PM, Andrea Giammarchi wrote:



The concept of my last link is this:
the instant before you do the upload you ask PHP to scan the tmp  
folder, or the folder used to upload files (often the tmp) and you  
snap number of files, then the upload starts, and it will create a  
temp file with a PHP predefined prefix, you array_diff the snap with  
the current file list and you get the file that the user is uploading.


At that point if you are lucky the input=file field will give you  
access to its fileSize, and you have everything to create a progress  
bar: the polled incremental tmp file size in the server, plus the  
total in the client, a bit of transitions/effects and that's it.


This method is not ideal, generally speaking, because it could  
easily suffer concurrency between multiple users.


I did not know Flash player had to put the entire file in memory, it  
sounds truly silly for scalability reasons, are you absolutely sure  
about this?


About APC you need to enable it and so far I had no problems with  
files up to 350 Mb , I wonder why 1Gb should be a problem.

Thanks Tom, for weighing in.

Having js poll a script on the server is kind of what APC was about,
and perl as well. Are you saying I could use PHP on the server side  
to

do this? It seems almost obvious, but no one mentions it any where on
the web, so a expected there was some fundamental limitation without
APC.

Do you have any idea what this script might look like? Is it possible
to get the temp file name before the upload is completed so that its
size can be monitored?

If it is, it is just too dang simple! ...but I'd take it for sure.

Pread,

just hopping in the thread again, so excuse me if this has been covered, but
have you gone over you environment settings thoroughly?  one of the key
values for the upload feature to work is,

apc.rfc1867

which needs to be set to 1 or On.  also, the php version needs to be at
least = 5.2.

not sure on the concurrency issues, but thats something that could easily be
verified w/ a test once youve got it running.

Can you write here how you configured APC?
In my old test I had to set 
apc.rfc1867 = On
and if you grab the zip: http://www.3site.eu/examples/APCQuery.zip
tell me what is exactly wrong (I tried ages ago though, I am using other 
strategies right now: http://code.google.com/p/noswfupload/ - not suitable for 
1Gb of files though)

About trying to grab info via PHP ... there is a little problem, that page will 
be executed only after the file has been sent, so obviously you'll never be 
able to know size, error, tmp_name, before the file has benn fully stored in 
the tmp or specific folder, got the problem?

[PHP] php.ini in cgi vs php.ini in cli

2009-09-14 Thread Andres Gonzalez
In the php configurations directories /etc/php5, there are 2 
subdirectories, one for

cgi and one for cli.  There is a php.ini file in each of these directories.

What would cause a difference of behavior in these 2 environments with 
the php.ini

exactly the same in each directory??

I have a command line script that consequently uses the cli version. 
This script works
just fine in that it can access API function in modules that are loaded 
via cli/php.ini


However, when executing in the cgi environment, I get a call to 
undefined function error

even though my 2 php.ini files are exactly the same.

Any idea what is causing this?

thanks,

-Andres

If you really want to be fair about this -- how about you show me

in all fairness you should be able to prove it. In fact, how about 
you showing me anywhere where I said anything negative about his 
debugger? That would be fair, right?


Also while you are at it, how about reading the entire thread and see 
how I came involved in the first place. After all, we all want to be

In all fairness, I think if someone followed this thread and saw the

Pread,

just hopping in the thread again, so excuse me if this has been  
covered, but have you gone over you environment settings  
thoroughly?  one of the key values for the upload feature to work is,


apc.rfc1867

which needs to be set to 1 or On.  also, the php version needs to be  
at least = 5.2.


not sure on the concurrency issues, but thats something that could  
easily be verified w/ a test once youve got it running.


-nathan


thanks for jumpin in Nathan. The water's fine! (Except for the  
sharks : )


I have in my php.ini:

apc.rfc1867 = On
apc.rfc1867_freq = 10K

The latter is because i read somewhere that some OS configs don't like  
the default of 0.


APC has a file, apc.php, that sows all the stats for apc, and it says  
file upload is on and it is caching files quite nicely, though I don't  
care too much about that right now.


my set-up: php-apc 3.0.19, Apache2, php 5.2.10, no suhosin patch, no  
FastCGI - the latter two items i have heard cause problems with APC  
also, so they are not part of my config.

Hi Andres,

When asking this kind of question, it would be very helpful if you
would tell us *which* function raised this error.

My first thought is that you tried to call a function which was
compiled in to the CLI version but not the CGI. What does phpinfo()
show when run under each?

what about your other apc.rfc1867 settings?

are you posting the correct field to the server to tell apc to start

determine the status in your progress tracking script?

by default, your form needs an input like,

input type=hidden name=APC_UPLOAD_PROGRESS
   id=progress_key  value=?php echo $id?/


then in the progress checking script you will need something like,

?php
if(isset($_GET['progress_key'])) {

  $status = apc_fetch('upload_'.$_GET['progress_key']);
  echo $status['current']/$status['total']*100;

}
?


the names of these variables depend upon apc.rfc1867_name
and apc.rfc1867_prefix respectively.  take a look at this article, it was
really helpful,

http://www.ibm.com/developerworks/opensource/library/os-php-v525/

also, to get going fast, dont bother w/ the progress script yet.  just focus
on getting apc to start tracking the progress.  you can use the stock
apc.php script from the distro and upload a large file; this will give you
time to check in apc.php.

Re: [PHP] Creating alphanumeric id for a table

2009-09-14 Thread aveev

If I follow you correctly, is the scenario below possible.??
Let's say there are 2 users accessing the app at the same time (user A and
B). Here's the sequnce of operation...
1. user A insert into table (get id = 1 from auto increment value)
2. user B insert into table (get id = 2 from auto increment value)
3. user A get value from $id = LAST_INSERT_ID() (id = 2)
4. user B get value from $id = LAST_INSERT_ID() (id =2)
5. user A update table where id = 2
6. user B update table where id = 2

in the scenario above, the row with id = 1 doesn't get his file number (fin)
while the row with id = 2 gets the value for his file number twice...

How can we make sure that those 3 processes are atomic operation (insert
table - get id from LAST_INSERT_ID() - update table) ??

Thanks..

 For example, I would use (not tested):

 The above statement finds the last record added to the database (the 
 index of the record) and then I would create my application-number 
 and store it in that record -- like so:
 
 // code to create the application-number (i.e., $application-number = 
 'AAA' . $id; )
 
 $query = UPDATE your_table SET application_number = 
 '$application_number' WHERE id = '$id' ;
 $result  = mysql_query($query) or die('Error, query failed');
 
 That way you should not have any duplications and you have 
 application-numbers (as you want )that are tied to the auto-numbering 
 of the table's index.

Re: [PHP] Creating alphanumeric id for a table

2009-09-14 Thread Ben Dunlap
 1. user A insert into table (get id = 1 from auto increment value)
 2. user B insert into table (get id = 2 from auto increment value)
 3. user A get value from $id = LAST_INSERT_ID() (id = 2)
 4. user B get value from $id = LAST_INSERT_ID() (id =2)
[8]
 How can we make sure that those 3 processes are atomic operation (insert
 table - get id from LAST_INSERT_ID() - update table) ??

From the MySQL 5.0 manual (20.9.10.3):

For LAST_INSERT_ID(), the most recently generated ID is maintained in
the server on a per-connection basis. It is not changed by another
client. ... Using LAST_INSERT_ID() and AUTO_INCREMENT columns
simultaneously from multiple clients is perfectly valid. Each client
will receive the last inserted ID for the last statement /that/ client
executed.
