[PHP-DB] php and mssql on seperate servers
I'm new to PHP and having issues. We have seperate servers for them. We can use ODBC to test the connection and it works fine. However, when we try to run the site we get a message of *** Error: Unable to Connect to Database. Please Try Again Later. *** We are using a custom app that we aren't getting a lot of assistance with. The relevant lines in the app are: define(DBHOST, //database server name); define(DBUSER, user); define(DBPASS, password); if(!$dbCon=mssql_connect(DBHOST,DBUSER,DBPASS)) $error = Unable to Connect to Database. Please Try Again Later.; Can anyone assist a noob php user? thanks -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-DB] PHP and MSSQL on Linux
I originally posted this to the general discussion but wanted to see if anyone on this list had an idea. The issue is trying to connect to the MSSQL with PHP from a linux box (Fedora Core 4 in this instance) An interesting development. I found some reference to running my PHP script from the command line to take Apache out of the picture. Lo and behold, the script worked. I was able to connect to the server. So the issue seems to be related with Apache. Any idea what I would need to do there to make the script work via the web?

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP and MSSQL on Linux
Run it from the command line as the apache user. See if that makes a difference. I'd guess not though.

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP and MSSQL on Linux
System commands are supposed to output errors on STERR, not on STOUT, php's system commands only grab STOUT so if there's an error you'll get no output.. You need to redirect STERR to STOUT when you issue the command.. Just put this at the end of your command: 21 Don't know if that's the issue, but it sounds like it. -Micah On Wednesday 02 November 2005 11:36 am, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I ran it as the apache user and it worked fine (from the command line).

RE: [PHP-DB] PHP and MSSQL
yes, it's possible. I'm learning php myself. (I'm a CF junkie.)
I got this script from somewhere. I have the info on a backup CD at home.
I'll post it if you're having problems with the script below. (I did a
google for: ODBC connection mySQL, or something similar to that.)
The script below is what I adapted for my purposes.
You have to go to (I'm using Win2000, yours would be similar, but
necessarily the same)
START
CONTROL PANEL
ADMINISTRATIVE TOOLS
DATA SOURCES (ODBC)
SYSTEM DSN : ADD [select Access]; enter the name; click select and give
the path to your db.
Once again, if you're not using Win2000 the above will be slightly
different.
The php is below:
?php
function monthly() {
/*
Make the connection to the database. The syntax is
odbc_connect( 'SYSTEM_DSN' , 'USER', 'PASSWORD' );
$cnx will hold the
pconnect is used to establish a persistent database
connection to the Database until the procedure is completed.
*/
$cnx = odbc_connect( 'SYSTEM_DSN' , 'root', '' );
if (!$cnx) {
Error_handler( Error in odbc_connect , $cnx );
}
// send a simple odbc query . returns an odbc cursor
$cur= odbc_exec( $cnx,
SELECT yourFieldName1, yourFieldName2,
yourFieldName3
FROM table
);
if (!$cur) {
Error_handler( Error in odbc_exec( no cursor returned ) ,
$cnx );
}
// fetch the succesive result rows
while( odbc_fetch_row( $cur ) ) {
$yourFieldName1= odbc_result( $cur, 1 );
$yourFieldName2= odbc_result( $cur, 2 );
$yourFieldName3= odbc_result( $cur, 3 );
echo
$yourFieldName1 -- $yourFieldName2 --
$yourFieldName3br
;
}
// close the connection. important if persistent connection are On

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP 4.3.0 + MSSQL database authenticationproblem?
Hi Alan, If this is a problem with PHP it's in the Sybase extension. I hvae not tried working with that since I made it possible to use --with-mssql (and I'm not the maintainer). Can you compile the cli version (--disable-cgi --with-mssql=path/to/freetds ...) and test a small comanndline script using the mssql_*() functions ? This should work with php 4.3.0, but I have made a few changes to the code in CVS and I can send you the latest files if you need them. This configuration is tested on sevral different Linux configurations and I use it every day so I know it works :-) - Frank Hi Frank, --- Frank M.

Yes, and connected was made successfully. I used the name of the connection in 'freetds.conf'. I was able to confirm successful connection earlier by posting some logs to the FreeTDS list.

[PHP-DB] PHP 4.3.0 + MSSQL database authentication problem?
Hello, Because I am not sure if this is just a PHP issue or a PHP+DB issue, I will be posting this message (seperately) to bith the General and PHP-DB lists. First, a brief rundown of my setup: Mandrake Linux 9.0 Apache 1.3.27 PHP 4.3.0 We are in the process of rebuilding our outdated servers, and all sites have been moved over successfully, except our own, which has a Control Panel login. The login authentication is done using FreeTDS to an MSSQL 2000 database. This setup works fine on the current server, but when I test it on the new server, the authentication seems to work fine, but instead of the screen I normally see when logging in, I just get kicked back to the Control Panel login screen. At first, I suspected FreeTDS, but I have confirmed that a connection is definately being made by enabling and examining the dump file. The FreeTDS mailing list has confirmed that this is also the case. The current (working) server is running Apache 1.3.27 + PHP v4.1.2 .

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP 4.3.0 + MSSQL database authenticationproblem?
Hi Alan, I'm not sure what 'Control Panel PHP script' means ? What version of FreeTDS are you using ? Do you use the sybase or the mssql extension in PHP ? - Frank Hello, Because I am not sure if this is just a PHP issue or a PHP+DB issue, I will be posting this message (seperately) to bith the General and PHP-DB lists. First, a brief rundown of my setup: Mandrake Linux 9.0 Apache 1.3.27 PHP 4.3.0 We are in the process of rebuilding our outdated servers, and all sites have been moved over successfully, except our own, which has a Control Panel login. The login authentication is done using FreeTDS to an MSSQL 2000 database. This setup works fine on the current server, but when I test it on the new server, the authentication seems to work fine, but instead of the screen I normally see when logging in, I just get kicked back to the Control Panel login screen. At first, I suspected FreeTDS, but I have confirmed that a connection is definately being made by enabling and examining the dump file. The FreeTDS mailing list has confirmed that this is also the case. The current (working) server is running Apache 1.3.27 + PHP v4.1.2 . I had a similar problem on the current working server when I tried upgrading the PHP to v4.2.3 just before Xmas. I have not yet tried downgrading to v4.1.2 on the new server, and would rather not. :-) I am not really sure where to proceed from here.

0.60 on the new server; I am not sure about the
currently working server, but I think it is 0.50 or
0.51.
Do you use the sybase or the mssql extension in PHP
The Sybase one ('sybase_connect'). The PHP was
compiled with the '--with-sybase=/path/to/freetds'
option.

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP 4.3.0 + MSSQL database authenticationproblem?
Hi Alan,
Did you configure FreeTDS with the right tdsver ? This can be none when
compiling FreetTDS using --with-tdsver=7.0 or in freetds.conf.
You should use the correct version according to your MSSQL server (70. =
SQL Server 7, 80 = SQL Server 2000).
From PHP 4.3.0 you can compile php using --with-mssql=/path/to/freetds.
FreeTDS needs to be compiled with --enable-msdblib, and you need to change
your code (sybase_* should be mssql_*). The upside is access to all the
mssql_* functions.
I'm using this on a Mandrake 9.0 system and it works fine (FreeTDS 0.61)

I figured as much, since I think the default can be overridden in the 'freetds.conf' and/or $TDSVER environment variable, no? Have you tried the tsql tool to see if you can connect ? Yes, and connected was made successfully. I used the name of the connection in 'freetds.conf'. I was able to confirm successful connection earlier by posting some logs to the FreeTDS list.

$user = enduser;
$pass = ;
$query = usp_get_subj 10;
$conn = odbc_connect($dsn, $user, $pass);
$res = odbc_exec($conn, $query);
while (odbc_fetch_row($res)) {
//$data = odbc_field_type($res, 10); // text
//$data = odbc_field_name($res, 10); // col_subj_content
//$data = odbc_field_len($res, 10); // 2147483647
$data = odbc_result($res, col_subj_content);
//$data = odbc_result($res, 10);
echo $data;
}
odbc_close($conn);
?
I can retrieve any other fields but not the field of type text.. What could
be the problem?
Thank you.
