[PHP-DB] Error checking and escaping before running a query (MySQL)

2001-08-07 Thread Dave Watkinson

Hi all
 
I have a searchbox that throws a wobbly when certain characters are
entered into it - basically the user is supposed to enter a
space-delimited list of words to search for, and then I create an array
from it and turn it into an OR etc query.
 
What I initially did was replace all commas with spaces, but I've
realised that double-quotes mess it up too.
 
The command I used for the spaces is
 
 $searchbox = ereg_replace(" ," ," ", $searchbox);
 
I tried
 
 $searchbox = ereg_replace(" \"" ," ", $searchbox);
 
but the page shows an error of 
 
Warning: REG_EPAREN: in
d:\apache\htdocs\dev\code\can_search_quick.php on line 22
 
there's a parse error if I don't escape the ", so what can I do? I know
how to do it in VB!
 
I searched PHP.net, but could only find an old bug report that advised
escaping special characters!
 
Help!
 
 
Thanks in advance
 
 
Dave

[PHP-DB] MS-SQL, PHP, IIS

2001-08-07 Thread Thomas Winkler

Hi.,

I'm currently using an IIS5 (W2k) with php4.0.6 (CGI) and MS SQL Server
2000.
I've run into problems when fetching fileds of the type datetime from the
database.
When using the MS SQL Query Analyzer I get my dates formated like this out
of my database: 2001-06-08 08:14:40.000
When using php to send my queries (mssql_query) to the database I get the
dates formated like this: 08 06 2001 8:14
But in my application I'd need the same format as i get it in the
Query-Analyzer. Any idea how to achive that or what's going wrong?
Besides all that: When I'm using the unified ODBC functions of PHP I get the
date in the same format as from the Query Analyzer. Might there be a bug in
PHP's mssql_ functions (well some might call a reformat of the datatype a
feature but I don't...)?

Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions,
Tom Winkler

First, what the  is 7.2, Mandrake ? RedHat ? Slackware? Debian ? Trustix?
Corel ? SuSE ? Linux? FreeBSD ? OpenBSD ? NetBSD ? *BSD? Solaris ? SunOS ?
HP-UX ? *NIX ? Windows ? BeOS?
(I guess that makes the point clear)

My guess is that your webserver (which you didn't name) is missing what in 
apache-speak
would be
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php (for php4)
or
AddType application/x-httpd-php4 .php3 (for php3).

Out of interest which OS and httpd are we talking?
(I've got a hunch telling me it's RedHat and apache, it usually is when 
somebody is
running a version number and no OS).

(and yes this is certainly not a php-db issue, php-install would have been 
the list
you should have posted to).

I'd almost guarantee you're missing the all important

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

in your httpd.conf

It's commented out in the redhat distribs; you have to uncomment it.

Re: [PHP-DB] When would it be 'good' to store binary data in a DB?

2001-08-07 Thread Justin Matlock

Using PHP 4.0.6, under apache 1.3.20, with mod_auth_mysql, modssl, openssl,
mod_dav, and mod_gzip... (basically, I'm gonna make apache burst into
flames.. heh)..

I'm working on a project for a company that is trying to sell radio
clips/sound effects/snippets to small college radio stations. You know,
those stupid sound effects that they like to use in the mornings... by
putting this big database on the net, they think they can sell them for
cheaper in 192kbps MP3 format than mailing them out on DAT.

I don't know if it'll work (as a business concept) or not, but I just want
to make sure they can't blame the technology if it fails. :)

Looking at what you've written I'd say your solution seems excellent for the
problem.

As you say there isn't an easy solution to instant distribution with some level
of redundancy between multiple sites, for a big number of files of relatively
small size storing them in databases is certainly one of the easier solutions.

What you didn't write though, is how you use these files...

[PHP-DB] When would it be 'good' to store binary data in a DB?

2001-08-07 Thread Justin Matlock

Okay; I've been following some threads for a while about people storing
image data in a DB, and just about everyone says it's bad, inefficient, etc.

Here's my situation, and my idea.. I don't know if this is the best way, but
it works, so far.  :)

I have four separate server groups in geographically different areas
(network, etc.).  They all run the same application and are DNS load
balanced.  I have a MySQL DB at each location, which are slave replicators
from the master mysql DB that sits in our central location.

I have binary data (in this case they're small MP3 clips -- 50k max), that I
need all of the servers to have instant access to once they're uploaded into
the system.

All writes from all of the servers go back across the network to the master
DB (there are very few writes).

Right now, these MP3's are addslash'd, and inserted into the master DB,
which then replicates it out over the slave links to the three slave
servers.

This way, I have a 'local' copy of each file at each server site for fast
serving.

I tried the NFS method; which sucked (and was insecure as heck going over
the public internet).

rsync isn't an option -- I need these files instantly distributed.

FYI; I have just around 90,000 mp3's in this database so far (no, they're
not pirated music, just radio clips/sound effects), using MySQL on Linux
boxes.  I don't notice any slowdowns compared to straight file accessing.

Also, backing this setup up is kind of cool; I have a fifth DB server I have
sitting on my desk that replicates off the master; I just detach the master
from the slave, shutdown the database server, back the MYD/FRM files up to
tape, and start it back up.. the master catches the slave back up.

Also, if one of the DB's dies, I can switch the servers using it to another
one in another location (it gets slow, but it works) by just changing a
single line in the config file.

(oh, and I've already worked around the 2GB file limit in linux -- I have
the DB split into multiple RAID0 chunks using MySQL's raid functionality)

I am a little wary of the 'everything in one file' syndrome, but... I've had
the power drop out on the master db a few times (eek), even in the middle of
updates, and after a good hour of churning, it was able to come back online.
That's the only disadvantage I've found with this. (and yeah, I have a BIG
ups for the box now).

Is this a bad idea?  what is the downside to doing it this way?  as far as
disk usage goes, I seem to have more disk space this way -- inodes aren't
getting wasted.  The DB servers don't seem to mind at all.

Thanks;
Justin

Are you calling mysql_fetch_array before this in your code, perhaps to see
if there is a result?  If so, that's the problem.  Each call to
mysql_fetch_array (mysql_fetch_row) increments the array pointer.

If that isn't your problem, please post more of the code so that we can make

Hi folks. I posted on the install board but I figured I would run this

I am attempting to get php up and running with oracle and oci8 support
bundled in. My configure statement is as follows:

/configure --with-oci8=/oracle/product/8.1.7
--with-oracle=/oracle/product/8.1.7 --with-apache=../apache_1.3.20
--enable-track-vars

I ran make and then make install per the instructions. Next, I did the
following:

cd ../apache_1.3.20
/configure --prefix=/www --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
make
make install

I have altered both my php.ini and httpd.conf accordingly so I know php
is running. However, any time I attempt to utilize oci8 functions like
ocilogon, I get 'undefined' function errors. These php scripts work on
my W2K system running PHP4 with Apache.

Any ideas folks? Did I miss a step?

Thanks in advance!

[PHP-DB] OCI support not functioning

2001-08-07 Thread Tom Tsongas

Hi folks. I posted on the install board but I figured I would run this
by the guru's here as well. :)

I am attempting to get php up and running with oracle and oci8 support
bundled in. My configure statement is as follows:

/configure --with-oci8=/oracle/product/8.1.7
--with-oracle=/oracle/product/8.1.7 --with-apache=../apache_1.3.20
--enable-track-vars

I ran make and then make install per the instructions. Next, I did the
following:

cd ../apache_1.3.20
/configure --prefix=/www --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
make
make install

I have altered both my php.ini and httpd.conf accordingly so I know php
is running. However, any time I attempt to utilize oci8 functions like
ocilogon, I get 'undefined' function errors. These php scripts work on
my W2K system running PHP4 with Apache.

Any ideas folks? Did I miss a step?

Thanks in advance!
Tom

Have you tried editing the PWD file in your FreeTDS directory and
running 'make check' to verify that everything's behaving normally
there?

Is your SYBASE environment variable set correctly, so that PHP can find
your interfaces file?  (Check the output of a phpinfo() call to verify
that...)

Does mssql_get_last_message() say anything interesting when this line
fails?

[PHP-DB] Problems with MySQL inserts

2001-08-07 Thread Jon Farmer

Hi,

This is a real strange one. I am writing a shell script in PHP which I am
cronning to run every 5 mins. Basically it downloads email via imap. Splits
it up into it relevant sections and adds it to a database. It does multiple
inserts, and update and multiple selects. The problem I have is that some of
the inserts dont work. There is no error returned ny mysql_error() and if
echo the SQL out and run in the MySQL client then it inserts ok. The thing
is that it is not the same query every time either. Sometimes its the first
insert and naother time its the second insert. I have attached the script in
case you want to check it out.. Any ideas anyone?

Thanks

Jon
