Re: [PHP-DEV] PHP 4.0 Bug #10006: Netscape Navigator 4.7 returns blank pages.

2001-03-26 Thread Joe Brown
Is it possible there are nulls in the output? Read in one of the news.php.com groups that earlier versions of netscape stop when a null is recieved in the stream. Suggestions were to save the source and view with an editor that can identify and display codes for null characters (chr(0)).

Excellent example Keith. In order for PHP to gain acceptance in the commercial communities, a date limitation will certainly prevent that. Date limitation on "only" this or that operating system does not support any argument. Ideally it should not depend an operating system structure. I

[PHP-DEV] OCI8 Thread safety

2001-04-06 Thread Joe Brown
It appears to me that the oci8 module does not behave well on win32 - a threaded environment. I've begun to study the code, and believe I can make it mind the rules. Thread safe programming is new to me. (hehe were have you heard that b4?-) Is anyone else working on the OCI8 extension?

This is likely a permissions issue rather than a PHP or file_exists() defect. Make sure your web server user (typically user nobody) has permissions to /tmp and /tmp/test If the www user cannot read or execute your test directory, then it will not be able to stat a file in that directory

Run into a spot of trouble using Metabase(db wrapper) because of it's use of casting a $var=intval($resource) where OCIFreeCursor fails to function after it has been casted. Guessing that it fails because intval is creating a reference to the resource, in turn OCI does not release the resource
