Sorry. I suspect they operate the same internally anyway, in terms of transferring data to/from the database, and buffering the query. no, load_file() is mysql internal function. the file is read by mysql server, so it completely bypass php and also client libraries. you need to have file priviledge.

Actually I have to admit that I saw that option before but I thought that its quite useless for my needs because they wrote there that after version 7.1 of postgresql the large objects interface is partially obsolete and they also wrote that one of the remaining beneifits of using it is that it can hold up to 2GB!! instead of the new TOAST of 1GB!! so I thought that I dont need it at all if anyway I can get to 1GB but apprantly they didnt wrote anywhere about the memory consumption diffrence... or maybe I dont control the english language as I wish to :) The large objects manual - http://www.postgresql.org/docs/7.4/interactive/largeobjects.html (for ver 7.4) Thanks alot again, Ben-Nes Yonatan -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] CfP: Workshop on Scripting for the Semantic Web
--- CALL FOR PAPERS --- Workshop on Scripting for the Semantic Web http://www.semanticscripting.org/SFSW2005/ co-located with 2nd European Semantic Web Conference May 30, 2005, Heraklion, Greece --- Large parts of the current Web rely on scripting languages such as Python, PHP, Perl, JavaScript, ASP, JSP, ActionScript and ColdFusion. These languages are the tools of a generation of web programmers who use them to quickly create server-side and client-side web applications. Support for scripting languages is widely deployed within the current web infrastructure: PHP for example is installed on 16 million domains. It is therefore likely that scripting languages will also play a crucial role in the Semantic Web gaining critical mass. Scripting languages are lightweight and easy to learn, but on the other hand mature enough to be used within complex applications, as the Mozilla, Zope and CWM projects show. Many deployed Semantic Web applications, for example in the FOAF and RSS communities, are already using these languages and it is likely that the process of RDF-izing existing database-backed websites, wikis, weblogs and CMS will largely rely on scripting languages. The workshop aims to bring together for the first time developers of the RDF base infrastructure for scripting languages with practitioners building applications using these languages. The goal of the workshop is to give an overview of the current support for Semantic Web technologies within scripting languages, to showcase innovative Semantic Web applications relying on these languages. TOPICS OF INTEREST Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: Infrastructure * Semantic Web frameworks and APIs for scripting languages * RDF parsers and serializers for scripting languages * RDF repositories and query languages implemented using scripting languages * Semantic Web Service frameworks for scripting languages * Reasoning engines implemented using scripting languages * Semantic Web publishing and data syndication frameworks Applications * Semantic Web applications using scripting languages * Approaches to RDF-izing existing applications * Wikis, weblogs, data syndication and content management applications using RDF * RDF/OWL editors and authoring environments * Semantic Web Mining and Social Network Analysis * Scripting applications using FOAF, RSS, ATOM, DOAP, LOM, Dublin Core * Tools and methodologies for the semantic annotation of web data Conceptual * Rapid development techniques for the Semantic Web * Employment of scripting language characteristics for Semantic Web development * Scalability and benchmarks of Semantic Web scripting applications TYPES OF PAPERS We seek two kinds of papers: Full papers that and short papers. Full papers should not exceed ten pages in length. Short papers are expected to be four to six pages. Papers from both categories will be peer-reviewed by three independent reviewers. Both full papers and short papers will be included in the workshop proceedings. SUBMISSION DETAILS Papers should be submitted electronically via the workshop website in PDF format. Papers must be formatted according to Springer LNCS. Please see www.springer.de/comp/lncs/authors.html for details. DEADLINES Papers must me submitted electronically by March 30, 2005. Notification of the reviewing results will be made on April 28, 2005. Final camera-ready versions of accepted papers must be provided electronically by May 5, 2005. PROGRAM SFSW will be a one day workshop consisting of an introduction about the use of scripting languages in the context of the semantic web, presentations of submitted papers, and (probably) a panel as well as time for discussion.

[PHP] How to prevent user directly input SQL query
I'm curious about how to protect SQL query. For example, if I get some varaibles from user using GET or POST method. Then, I have to use it in a SQL query sentense. How can I make sure that users don't do trick by inserting some SQL command into the variable resulting in miss sql command? Is there any method to prevent that? Another question is that, are there any PHP build-in function to remove some unwanted charactor (like and ' and \ and / ...) or I have to do it manually?

Re: [PHP] How to prevent user directly input SQL query
Hello Thone
you can use mysql_real_escape_string() or mysql_real_escape_string()
for versions prior to 4.3.0, to aissist with quoting mysql queries,
if you use another DB, look at the manual for the relevant escape
function.
I use this function after just before i insert variables into a sql string.
function clean($var){
if(!get_magic_quotes_gpc()){
if(!function_exists(mysql_real_escape_string)){
return mysql_escape_string($var);
}
return mysql_real_escape_string($var);
}
if(!function_exists(mysql_real_escape_string)){
return mysql_escape_string( stripslashes( $var));
}
return mysql_real_escape_string( stripslashes( $var));
}
Then when details are submitted, make sure you clean any unwanted
content from those variables , also make sure input is what your
expecting,
i.e if(ctype_digit($_GET['someid'])){
$cleanid = clean($_GET['someid']);
}
$sql = SELECT `field` FROM `table` WHERE `someid`='$cleanid';
Also see http://phpsec.org/ its a new website that will help you on
your way to assisting with securing your php applications.

[PHP] Apache 2.0.52, PHP 5.03, FreeBSD 4.10 memory problems
I'm running Apache 2.0.52 and PHP 5.03 in a jailed (Virtual Private Server) FreeBSD 4.10 envirorement. PHP 5.03 is running as php_mod and was installed quite recently. Since then (better, since someone started using it) I've been getting these errors in the httpd-error log: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 79 bytes) And this one in the php-error log: [06-Feb-2005 17:25:50] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 6587593 bytes) in xxx/xxx/xxx/xxx/xxx/xxx.php on line 53 I also see several thousands of notices in the PHP-error log within the time-frame of a single second, plus diveded by zero, etc. Of course, I asked the programmer to fix all of these issues.Among others, there was a script that outputted a html-form with 2 columns, 100 rows each containing select-boxes with 100 full names (and those 100 names were the same of every column/row in that form :-|). But the problem is not so much that someone is using broken and the most inefficient scripts, but more that they are crashing the entire box! When these scripts are run, the box becomes totally unresponsive, afterwards all cgi and php request to Apache fail with a 500 error and sometimes the whole box crashes completely, apparently from memory exhaustion. :-( It this a bug somewhere in PHP, Apache or FreeBSD? How can I protect myself against this? I can't manually check every script, and the memory and time limits in php.ini (20s for exe, 30s for input and 8MB for mem) don't seem effective here. What are my options to make Apache 2 and PHP 5 full proof against such scripts?

First off: register_globals=on on Windows server, register_globals=off in
Linux, by any chance? I ran into a similar problem (w/o the 'low-level'
messages). Are you calling https for login procedures? Had a problem with
that too.
Hth,
Andre
Thank you Andre! That was spot on - my Windows PHP installation has
register_globalsoff. When I turned it on the error messages
disappeared. Success!
FYI: I found this in the PHP manual:
If your script uses session_register(), it will not work in
environments where the PHP directive register_globals is disabled.
I was using session_register() in one place so perhaps this was the problem?
PHP manual also says this:
Caution
If you are using $_SESSION (or $HTTP_SESSION_VARS), do not use
session_register(), session_is_registered(), and
session_unregister().
Well, I have a few lines like these two:
session_register('email_address');
$_SESSION['email_address'] = $email_address;
If I simply delete the first line
(session_register('email_address');) everything will still work...
right?

You have mysql 4.1.8, but your php was built with the library for an earlier version, which, as the error message says, doesn't support the new, more secure authentication protocol. Your choices are to tell mysql to use the older, less-secure protocol, or build a copy of php using your current mysql client library.

Hi Alex,
I'm glad it worked. Took me long enough to figure it out (and I wasn't
connected to an IE server on the web, but with Linux as well.)
What I suggest: dump any reference to session_register('email_address'); and
use $_SESSION['email_address']; instead.
My method is to convert all $_POST values from the sending script to $_SESSION
AFTER validating user input:
sending page:
?php session_start(); ?
?php
print form action='receive.php' method='post';
print input type='text' name='email_address' value='Email Address Please';
/* etc, etc . . . */
?
receiving page:
?php session_start(); ?
?php
print form action='receive.php' method='post';
/* Validate user input using standard methods */
$_SESSION['email_address'] = $_POST['email_address'];
/* Then, for ease of wrting it out: */
$email = $_SESSION['email_address'];
/* Lotsa stuff left out here */
?

Andre

Again, fix or disable that script. Of course, I asked the programmer to fix all of these issues.Among others, there was a script that outputted a html-form with 2 columns, 100 rows each containing select-boxes with 100 full names (and those 100 names were the same of every column/row in that form :-|). You're simply going to have to work with that programmer to get them to write better code, or not work with them (terminate their account). But the problem is not so much that someone is using broken and the most inefficient scripts, but more that they are crashing the entire box! That's definitely not good. But there is only so much you, and PHP, can do to stop a bad programmer from chewing up resources. When these scripts are run, the box becomes totally unresponsive, afterwards all cgi and php request to Apache fail with a 500 error and sometimes the whole box crashes completely, apparently from memory exhaustion. :-( It this a bug somewhere in PHP, Apache or FreeBSD? No. It's a bug in the script/program that causes the crash. How can I protect myself against this? I can't manually check every script, You can identify the culprit script, and disable it, and notify the client that they are violating their terms of service to run it again on a production server until it is debugged.

What are my options to make Apache 2 and PHP 5 full proof against such scripts? NOTHING is foolproof. Ever. You can change those numbers and be more harsh, but that will affect ALL users, not just the one who's bringing your box down. You would be far better off, for all your clients, to deal directly with the client who's causing the problems.

I have got php encrypting the data using gnugp but need to automate the decrytping element which is proving difficult because of the way the password is passed. While Daniel has brang up the subject of encryption, and I know that the other day we were talking about storing CC numbers in a database - i don't think we touched on storing CCs encrypted with a gpg-stype encryption. Is this generally acceptable at all, or do you developers still not store CC numbers in any way, shape or form in a database? I wouldn't store them at all. If you encrypt them with a two-way algorithm, the private key is your weak link. SOMEBODY can always find a way to get to that private key. You have to invest a TON of money and resources to make it S difficult to get to the private key, that it's easier/cheaper for the Bad Guys to get people's credit card numbers some other way. If you are using one-way encryption, then you're only using it to verify that somebody has access to that CC number, and you might as well use a password the user can choose/change -- with suitable restrictions on the quality of that password -- rather than risk transmitting the CC # needlessly. You need a REALLY good reason, and a REALLY REALLY REALLY good security audit of your entire process, on a routine basis, with all software, hardware, physical access, network access, under close-up scrutiny if you store CC numbers in the database. That's a reason why almost nobody does it, and a reason why we all just let the banks/merchant-vendors worry about that stuff. Sometimes it really is best to let a specialist handle things.

Re: [PHP] Global and Local include_path settings
Yeah, I was thinking about that route, but just as I was reading your response, I thought up a new 'problem' for myself. Even if I set it in the httpd.conf, a .htaccess, or in a file that I auto_prepend, if the end user on one of the vhosts uses the ini_set(), it will be overwritten. I could turn off the ability for users to set a local include path, but I'd like to give them as much *freedom* as possible. It's not an issue at the moment, since I'm the only one who does any php code on the box (I have a 'designer' who helps me out from time to time, but he doesn't mess with any PHP), but sooner or later, I'm probably going to pick up a customer who wants to handle his/her own code. I guess if I'm feeling really brave, I could brush up on my C code, and modify the source so that ini_set() will append, and not overwrite the include path. I wouldn't do that. If somebody is silly enough to not use ini_get() and append their own directories, it's on their heads. More importantly, they might NEED to set the path differently to get legacy code, versions, whatever, of the files you are providing. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The closest you can come to that is with mysql_pconnect (or xxx_pconnect). When you wade through the cruft, it basically boils down to each Apache child process holding onto a connection.

This is true even with _pconnect, which should probably not be called persistent but, rather, re-usable as it really ends up being persistent only in MySQL space, and Apache/PHP still need to rebuild the connection, but it's WAY faster cuz MySQL has it sitting there ready and waiting for you, instead of starting from scratch each time. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

[PHP] PHP/5.0.3 MySQL 5.0.2 Stored procedure (OUT)

I am just wondering how to obtain the result from a mysql procedure OUT
parameter within PHP e.g.
MYSQL
create procedure test_out(OUT testvar int)
BEGIN
select max_connections into testvar from mysql.user limit 1;
END
PHP
$query = 'call test_out('.$test_val.')';
$query_handle = mysql_query($query);
but there is nothing within the $test.val, after searching the web there
appears to be something like this for oracle connection with the bind, but I
cannot find the mysql version ?
Any advice ?

[PHP] Favorite Linux Distribution
Hello all - I've been a list member for a while, helped out some people, and asked some questions. But, today I have a completely off topic, but somewhat relevant question for y'all. What is your favorite Linux distribution? What would you recommend for my situation? I'm brand new to Linux. I'm just trying to learn how it works, but I think I'll catch on quick. I'm looking for the one with the most capability, and also one to run my development instance of Apache 2.0 on. I've been looking at either RedHat or Fedora. Is this a good choice? I'm truly drawing a blank, and I've searched Google, but never really found anything extremely useful. Please help me, an old Windows veteran, escape the Microsoft box!

Re: [PHP] Favorite Linux Distribution
I would basically agree with Greg's summary, Easy - Hard and More Stable - Less Stable. It is worth mentioning a relative new Linux distro called Ubuntu. I have used Red Hat / Fedora for a few years. I have slowly grown tired of dependency hell and broken packages. I have tried Debian based Linux(s) and found them far easier to maintain using apt-get than RPM based Linux distros. Ubuntu is a Debian based distro tweeked for the desktop. It also runs a little more bleeding edge than Debian, although I have found it very stable. I use Ubuntu (i386) Athlon desktop and Ubuntu (PPC) my Apple iBook. I have Apache, MySQL, PostgreSQL, PHP, Python, Perl, ... installed and all running well for my development. http://www.ubuntulinux.org/ You can even get a free CD from them... http://www.ubuntulinux.org/support/documentation/faq/shipit Tony On Mon, 7 Feb 2005 18:17:55 -0600, Greg Donald [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: On Mon, 7 Feb 2005 16:25:28 -0700, The Disguised Jedi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hello all - I've been a list member for a while, helped out some people, and asked some questions.

Hi, Anybody out there doing any work with ncurses? I've been playing around with ncurses trying to figure it all out. I have had pretty good luck but I am finding a few issues and would like to know if other users are having the same problems. One of the problems I'm having is with function keys and arrow keys. I can trap on them OK but I haven't been able to keep the system from displaying their escape sequences on the screen. When this happens it corrupts the screen and skews the display. Also, I'm having some weirdness with mvwaddstr, I logged a bug on bugs.php.net #31876. I have test programs for anyone interested in taking a stab at some of the problems I've encountered.

I think this is an extraordinary (and unjustified) level of paranoia. The memory issue is moot on a dedicated server, and probably on a shared server as well. On a dedicated server if you can't control the access well enough to prevent unauthorized people from running programs to go poking through memory, you've got bigger problems to solve. On either kind of server the chances of finding a card number are remote to start with, and even if found it is likely to come with no associated address or cardholder information. Also there are far easier ways to get CC numbers than to hope one will be left lying around in memory. For one thing, a crook can generate CC numbers very easily -- the check-digit algorithm is published, and the bank ID numbers at the start I think are readily available as well. Of course many of those generated will be wrong, but there have to be enough right ones that a generated number is far easier for them to get than a number left lying around in memory. As for not accepting them on your own web page at all, I don't think commercial enterprises are obligated to go to a level of security that is that far beyond the norm, and it manifestly does not work in many site designs where the provider's page simply is not adequate or appropriate. The basic approach of using SSL from client to server and again from server to CC processor, and then not storing the full number, should be plenty good enough, and is for tens of thousands of commercial web sites. I have never heard of any signifcant problem with card numbers being stolen from sites operating this way, nor of any liability assigned by the CC companies to people following these (clearly industry standard) practices. -- Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Tim Hi Tim, http://awstats.sourceforge.net/ An excellent web-stats analyzer - also prints out keywords/keyphrases by analyzing web logs. Suppose you could do the same, using some code ideas from the prog. http://www.mikes-marketing-tools.com You can get search engine ranking using keywords/phrases from your site.

[PHP] Re: [users@httpd] Favorite Linux Distribution
* The Disguised Jedi [EMAIL PROTECTED]: I also forgot to mention my hardware. P4 2.8 GHz - Notebook 60 GB HDD w/ 15 GB seperate partition for the linux CD-RW 24x WLAN for main connection Almost identical to what I'm writing this on... except my partitions are all linux... ;-) In getting ready for the linux install on this machine, I went over to http://www.linux-laptop.net -- this should be your first stop if you're using a laptop. See if you can find what others have written about getting it up and running; if you're lucky, you'll see several distros, and be able to compare, or somebody will have written a comparison of several. From what I've been able to see, Kanotix has been a favorite for a number of laptops with similar configurations. It's a livecd, so you'll be able to test it out without installing -- which will give you a good idea if your hardware will work with it. Then, install away! (Me? I run gentoo.) Thanks for the responses i've already received! On Mon, 7 Feb 2005 16:31:46 -0700, Chad Leigh -- Shire. Net LLC [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi I like gentoo for Linux.

Re: [PHP] Storing CCN's Again...
No the most secure way, but I had a client who was determined not to use
paypal and store cc'sand do them offline. I am using SSL + Mysql encode to do
this. Ie
encode(cc_number,md5('secret'))

[PHP] Re: [users@httpd] Favorite Linux Distribution
Pretty difficult question as it's a question of taste :-) If your are new to linux and want to keep your windows (dual-boot), Mandrake would be my advice: in a class with users without experience of linux, they all have been able to install Mandrake (10.1) dual booting windows without a problem in -/+ 2 hours. I also have it on my laptop since 2/3 years now and it works pretty well Fedora Core is really nice, but if I'm not wrong, there is no possibility in the graphical installation to redimension your windows partition (by the way always do a backup and a defrag before) gaël The Disguised Jedi [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote on 08/02/2005 00.25.28: Hello all - I've been a list member for a while, helped out some people, and asked some questions. But, today I have a completely off topic, but somewhat relevant question for y'all. What is your favorite Linux distribution? What would you recommend for my situation? I'm brand new to Linux. I'm just trying to learn how it works, but I think I'll catch on quick. I'm looking for the one with the most capability, and also one to run my development instance of Apache 2.0 on. I've been looking at either RedHat or Fedora. Is this a good choice? I'm truly drawing a blank, and I've searched Google, but never really found anything extremely useful.
