 Hi all,
  
 I have seen in zend.com about parsing an xml document using php.
 i have also seen an interesting article which uses perl or java to move
 data from xml to database and vice versa. Does php has such functions to
 do so.
  
 Thanks

It certainly does support parsing XML - see http://php.net/xml for all the
gory details. Of course, you'll need to write your own code to insert the
parsed data into your favourite database.



Cheers

Everything bows to success, even grammar.

[PHP-DB] PEAR DB and MSSQL

2005-06-13 Thread php

My company runs a Linux based PHP website with a MySQL database backend.
 We also have several MSSQL databases deployed throughout the
organization.  One of our MSSQL databases has a process running on it
that transfers it's data to our MySQL database.  However this process
has become unstable and the data does not always make it over. This is
mission critical data and must be present on the website to meet
federal and state regulations.

Our director has mandated that we get rid of the data transfer and query
the MSSQL database directly.  I have found several very useful sites on
the net to give me instructiosn on setting this up.  I installed
unixODBC and FreeTDS and set up a test server using fedora core 1. 
When  I first got unixODBC and FreeTDS installed, I was able to connect
to the database just fine.  However, when I rebooted the server and
tried to connect again PEAR returns a db_error object with a message of
[nativecode=IM002 [unixODBC][Driver Manager]Data source name not found,
and no default driver specified] ** odbc://#:#/@#  {hash
marks added to hide username and password and ODBC name}.  I got the
message from the output of print_r($db).

After the reboot, I was still able to connect to the MSSQL database from
the console using isql so this does not appear to be an issue with
unixODBC and FreeTDS.  

Does anyone have a clue as to why this happened and what I can do to get
this working?  

Thank you,
Robbert van Andel

I am using an RPM version of PHP, would updating the install do the same
thing, or do I have to manually install PHP from source?

 Hi Robbert,
 
 Not sure whey your system stops working after a reboot, but when you are
 on Linux and using FreeTDS you do not need unixODBC. Just recompile php
 using the option --with-mssql=/path/to/freetds. You can then use the
 native mssql functions to connect to the server, and this is also
 supported through PEAR DB.
 
 Just my 2 cents.

From the manual's user supplied comments:  (Looks like this is for a windows
machine)

http://us4.php.net/fopen

   // Use this code to write directly to the COM1 serial port
   // First, you want to set the mode of the port. You need to set
   // it only once; it will remain the same until you reboot.
   // Note: the backticks on the following line will execute the
   // DOS 'mode' command from within PHP
   `mode com1: BAUD=9600 PARITY=N data=8 stop=1 xon=off`;
   $fp = fopen (COM1:, w+);
   if (!$fp) {
   echo Uh-oh. Port not opened.;
   } else {
   $e = chr(27);
   $string  = $e . A . $e . H300;
   $string .= $e . V100 . $e . XL1SATO;
   $string .= $e . Q1 . $e . Z;
   echo $string;
   fputs ($fp, $string );
   fclose ($fp);
   }
