Take a look at this: http://de3.php.net/manual/en/datetime.createfromformat.php Or try this http://de3.php.net/manual/en/function.strtotime.php $_SESSION['ExpiryDate'] = "2013-04-23"; $int_timestamp = strtotime($_SESSION['ExpiryDate']); echo date('D, \t\h\e jS \o\f M Y', $int_timestamp ); Use SINGLE QUOTES! > > -- > Chris. > > > -- Marco Behnke Dipl.

At any rate, we were running the load test yesterday against the production system that was having problems last fall. I wish we had a test system where we could test everything end-to-end, but unfortunately we can't duplicate the DHCP part of the production environment. > 2 quick notes: > > If you have a linux box available, I like the simplicity of siege, but jmeter > is nice, too: > http://www.joedog.org/siege-home/ Hahahaha. This system AND the DHCP both USED to run on linux boxes. This task was much simpler then, because the DHCP table was a text file that we parsed and updated directly from PHP. It was decided to standardize on a single platform to make system maintenance and security management simpler, and most of our client/server stack was already Windows. If necessary, I could probably spin up a virtual box for testing though. >> The site is running PHP 5.3 on IIS/Windows Server 2003.

I think at the same time he switched to using Zend_Db (not the full framework, just the DB library) over top of the SQL Server driver for PHP for database queries. >> >> So, any ideas we can try? > > > We'd probably have to know more about what the netsh calls were doing. This particular call is querying DHCP for a list of leases within a specific scope so we can get the MAC address of the client. Once we authenticate the user, calls on later pages expire the current lease for that MAC address on a private subnet and create a semi-permanent lease on the public subnet. Our testing yesterday stepped through the process beginning with this initial DHCP query (which was the long running process identified in profiling) and the next few very simple pages but stopped short of actually making any changes to the network assignment. With a single user, the first page takes a couple seconds and the next few pages are <50ms. During testing yesterday, we had the system stressed enough to stretch those times out past a couple minutes. It looks like we're going to have to continue the test into the next part of the sign-up process, but that will take some time to learn about JMeter conditional logic. I suspect we'll have to wait a couple weeks until students are gone before we can actually run that level of testing.

Re: [PHP] A little confused
Thanks for the replies guys - figured it out! Using date() directly with strtotime() and the appropriate formating works :) date("D, \\t\h\e jS \o\\f M Y", strtotime($_SESSION['ExpiryTime'])) On Tue, Apr 23, 2013 at 12:16 PM, shiplu wrote: > > On Tue, Apr 23, 2013 at 4:07 PM, Chris Knipe wrote: > >> echo date_format($_SESSION['ExpiryDate'], "D, \t\h\e jS \o\f M Y"); >> > > Why not construct DateTime object > > echo date_format(new DateTime($_SESSION['ExpiryDate']), "D, \t\h\e jS \o\f > M Y"); > > Or > > $dt = new DateTime($_SESSION['ExpiryDate']); > echo $dt->format("D, \t\h\e jS \o\f M Y"); > > I personally like the later.

Sorry, I didn't read your email properly and didn't realise you were trying to use DateTime objects. $datetime = new DateTime('2013-04-23'); If all you're doing is formatting the date you'll find using date($unix_timestamp) far more efficient than date_format($datetime_object). -Stuart -- Stuart Dallas 3ft9 Ltd http://3ft9.com/ > On Tue, Apr 23, 2013 at 12:09 PM, Stuart Dallas wrote: > On 23 Apr 2013, at 11:07, "Chris Knipe" wrote: > > > $_SESSION['ExpiryDate'] = "2013-04-23"; > > echo date_format($_SESSION['ExpiryDate'], "D, \t\h\e jS \o\f M Y"); > > > > Required Result: Mon, the 23rd of Apr 2013 > > > > I get however: PHP Warning: date_format() expects parameter 1 to be > > DateTime, integer given in > > > > I've had a look at the date/time function list, but I cannot seem to find > > any way to convert $_SESSION['ExpiryDate'] to an DateTime?? > > http://php.net/strtotime > > -Stuart > > -- > Stuart Dallas > 3ft9 Ltd > http://3ft9.com/ > > > > -- > > Regards, > Chris Knipe -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
Re: [PHP] A little confused
Yes, strtotime() does convert the $_SESSION value to a unix epoc, as expected. However, date_format still complains that the argument is a Integer value, instead of a DateTime.
