RE: [PHP] can i use --with-unixODBC instead of --with-ibm-db2?
Doug, can you log in via plain db2 in linux (sorry if you said you could, I didnt read that far back). Heres what I do: * [root@somelinuxbox /root]# su - db2inst1 [db2inst1@somelinuxbox db2inst1]$ /usr/IBMdb2/V7.1/bin/db2 (c) Copyright IBM Corporation 1993,2001 Command Line Processor for DB2 SDK 7.2.0 You can issue database manager commands and SQL statements from the command prompt. For example: db2 = connect to sample db2 = bind sample.bnd For general help, type: ?. For command help, type: ? command, where command can be the first few keywords of a database manager command. For example: ? CATALOG DATABASE for help on the CATALOG DATABASE command ? CATALOG for help on all of the CATALOG commands. To exit db2 interactive mode, type QUIT at the command prompt. Outside interactive mode, all commands must be prefixed with 'db2'. To list the current command option settings, type LIST COMMAND OPTIONS. For more detailed help, refer to the Online Reference Manual. db2 = CONNECT TO MYDB2DB user MICHAEL Enter current password for MICHAEL: Database Connection Information Database server= OS/400 4.4.0 SQL authorization ID = MICHAEL Local database alias = CMSFIL db2 = ** Names changed to protect my network!:) Can you do that?

Matt, I wish you were my boss :) I love MySQL and would want to use it instead of db2 (seeing i could probably have had it working with php last week ;) ) but Somehow my boss loves to waste money on IBM products... and then hires on people who don't know how to use them well (i.e. me!). My philosophy is: don't waste money on it, if you can use some open source -- for example he wanted to use IBM WAS (websphere application server) but, PHP will do everything we need to do, and is a lot easier to deal with than the bulky WAS. Anyways. I had seen the IBM document that you referenced about connecting DB2 to PHP, in fact, it's the main document i used to start attempting to get PHP to work with DB2. The second doc you referenced from phpbuilder.net was definately a good find -- had a couple ideas that i hadn't tried (i.e. catalogging the db, running apache as db2inst1 [still trying to get that to work, db2inst1 doesn't have the priviledges that root has, and henceforth can't access all the files needed by apache]) Matt, thanks again for all your help! -Doug Matt [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote in message 047001c23f46$f7707c40$[EMAIL PROTECTED]">news:047001c23f46$f7707c40$[EMAIL PROTECTED]... It seems way too difficult to configure db2 on linux. Let alone trying to do it on freebsd, which I hope to tackle that next week. I tell you though, I really love mysql, it's so easy to use, and configure. mysql just works. mysql's performance on a table I have that has roughly 250,000 rows of address entries, beats our as/400 with db2 by orders of magnitude and mytest box is a Celeron 300.

You are correct Chris. However if you designed your application as the generic Master-Detail-(write changes) structure you would merely have to use echo body onload=\javascript:history.go(-2)\; to take you back to the master set, assuming js is turned on, and that is the flow of your app. I mainly design in an intranet environment, and variables are more controlled here than in other places. For instance, I'm sure that noone uses anything but IE, and JS is almost for sure on.

RE: [PHP] Development Tools
Mark, I have been developing with PHP for 1 year now, and about 1 month ago got DMX, I have to say that I spend much much less time on building forms and little repetitive work, and more on building applications. I would have to say that DMX increased my productivity by at least 5 times.(I suck at building forms because I spend to much time perfecting them) There is an initial learning curve, because DMX does some things different from what I had known, and some weird behaviors at times, and it certainly cannot be your entire application builder but I can safely say that I love it. Do not attempt to work with it if you do not have a fundamental understanding of PHP, because it has some weird quirks that I were hard to pinpoint for myself. But for building dynamic drop down lists, and recordsets, and update pages, it is great. I wish they had built in some kind of form checker where you could say, check this field because it is a date and check this field when submitted because it is required I also wish you could customize your mysql error messages, instead every one of them ends in or die(mysql_error()) Maybe they do have these, and I have not yet found them, so forgive me if my statements are incorrect.( and help me cause I'd love them!) Again, it won't do user error checking, and when forms get complicated you have to do some manual editing, and the errors are generic. But it is certainly worth that money.

RE: Re: [PHP] Help with MySQL.
I'm sorry after re-reading the correct answer would be this: The hostname(ip address) of the mysql box is whatever you telnet too, if indeed you get those weird characters when you 'telnet localhost 3306'. For instance if you telnet to 192.168.0.1, that is the mysql server address. If you telnet to 'server1.myisp.com' or 'server1' that is the address. The hostname and ip address are very much interchangeable, though as a general rule of thumb, ip address is more reliable.

I was using mysql_num_rows() to do it with no problems, but this isn't as quick as using mySQL's COUNT(*), or so I have been told so I swtiched. Here's a snipit of the code... $sqlinfo = SELECT username, COUNT(username) as count FROM usertable WHERE username='me' GROUP BY username; $sqlresult = mysql_query($sqlinfo) or die(mysql_error()); $count = mysql_result($sqlresult,0,count); if ($count = 0) { FAILED } else { while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sqlresult)) { $username = $row['username']; } } The count value is set correctly but: when the while() loop is executed...no values are set (there are a lot more, but I shortened it for spaces sake). So, $username is null. If I remove the $count line, it worksany suggestions? Max Assuming that your username is unique, I would expect that you would only get one row returned from that query? In which case much of your SQL is redundant. Anyhow, your $count line reads the first row of the result, then sets the pointer to the next row in the result set - if this is empty (ie only one row retrieved) then you will get a null result for your while loop as there are no more results to display.

I don't think this will work, because if it is configured correctly, that file will be parsed by PHP before(as) apache gets it, meaning the only part apache gives you is the result of all the code executing in that page.

Visit the function in your web browser, and what you see will be exactly what your local script sees.
