Re: [PHP] Discarded extension on file download
This don't work for me :( Extension .gz is still throwed away.

The files are gzipped text and have all .txt.gz extensions. Now while on Windows systems both IE and Netscape offers to download it under the full name (althought IE adds [some_number] to the base of the file name), under Unix or Linux systems (tested with netscape 4.7) the '.gz' part is discarded from the file name and the file is saved with .txt only. Downloaded file is still gzipped. The part of script serving the files is as follows: header(Content-type: application/octet-stream); header(Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=$my_filename); echo($file_body); What am-I doing wrong?

[PHP] PHP + Microsoft Access
Hello I have to interface an MSAccess database and Apache server on a linux box thru PHP. The only way I found to do that is to use ODBC with some specific drivers (I tried Openlink). This solution needs sort of server running on a Windows station, it serves requests to the Access database file. The problem is that I would like to do this WITHOUT any Windows station, to achieve good reliability (we can't have a Windows station running just for that). Also the database can't be ported to any other format because there are some programs written in VB-Access that need it as is. So what I need is sort of sql driver for accessing mdb files on a unix/linux box. Does-it exist? I searched a lot on the web but with no succes. Any suggestions are welcome Thanx in advance Some details: - The Access database file (mdb) is located on a Unix box in a shared folder Tom -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP] Program execution stops at exec()
Hello
In one script I use exec() to execute a shell script which takes 2-3
hours to run. I disabled user abort and set time limit to more than one
day. The shell script finishes well but no instruction after exec() is
run. The script finishes with no error nor warnings.
Some of you know hwat happens?
Thanx in advance.
Tom
Code snaps:
ignore_user_abort(1);
set_time_limit(10);
(...)
exec('/home/tom/build.sh ouput 2errlog');//takes 3 hours to complete
// *** Nothing from here gets executed, 'build.sh' script completed with succes ***
(...)
I'm using php 4.0.4pl1(can't upgrade) with Apache 1.3.19 on Mandrake
[PHP] Re: Program execution stops at exec()
I read in php manual that set_time_limit() affects in fact max_execution_time.
You can see in my example code
I wrote in my initial post that I set it to 100k secs. Php don't run in safe
mode so it should go fine.
What I don't understand is why my php script dies while executing the shell
script. Set_limit_time should make it
wait. The build.sh script completes well.

note:
i think the exec in your php waits for the shell to return, but before the
shell can answer, php terminates the script, because of the max_exection.

David Freeman wrote: What I don't understand is why my php script dies while executing the shell script. Set_limit_time should make it wait. The build.sh script completes well. Not the exact solution here but perhaps a work-around. How dynamic is the data you're generating with your shell script? Perhaps you could get away with doing a cron on your shell script (once every hour or whatever) and outputing it to a text file that you then parse in php to deal with results. CYA, Dave It is generated rarely. I wanted to do a sort of interface to start generation of some files at distance. It would be cool to have it done just by pushing single button. My work-around is that now I have to push another button after 3 hours ;) No big deal, it is generated once or twice a year.

[PHP] Re: Session's is slowing the page ??
Hi PHP's sessions are blocking, i.e. until a session is closed, all other calls to session_start() are pending. If you don't close a session explicitely, it remains opened until the script is terminated. The solution is to close a session as soon as possible (session_write_close) or use non-blocking read-only sessions (session_readonly instead of session_start) in case you don't need to modify registered variables.

[PHP] Re: Session's is slowing the page ??
Login page: // suppose that user login was verified // Following code have to be executed only if user is valid session_start(); session_register(user,user_email);//register here all needed data. //In this case, it will register $user and $user_email in the session Put the following in session.inc and include session.inc on top of each script that has to be run for logged users session_readonly(); if((!session_is_registered(user)) || (!session_is_registered(user_email))) header(Location: login.php); This will redirect user to the login page if not logged in. If he was logged, script will go on and you can access $user and $user_email. Any change of their value will not be saved in the session Tom PS: in my PHP version 4.04 , function session_readonly() is unknown. What I use instead is: session_start(); session_write_close(); //session_end is also unknown by 4.0.4 Dima Dubin wrote: Hello Tom I looked in the manual for session_readonly because its basicly what I need : 1 login page, and the just read the session data in other pages but, there is no examples or anything like that in the manual could you please show me a little example how to use it on my pages ?

[PHP] Re: Session's is slowing the page ??
Hat you do is the same as if you do nothing, because your session_write_close() is called near the end of script and sessions are automatically closed at the end of a script. You should 'copy' all needed variables from the session in your header.php like this: session_start(); $copy_user = $user;//if $user and $user_email are session data $copy_user_email = $user_email; session_write_close();//or session_end() if your php knows it That way you can access $copy_* in the body instead of session variables. It works as readonly access to session data Tom Dima Dubin wrote: Hi Tom Thanks for your help but the problem still happens :-( First I tried to use session_readonly() but it was unknown FUNC` in my php, then I try the second way : I have header.php footer.php in the header I use session_start(); and in the footer I use session_write_close() and still every minute the site freezes. Is there any other way ? I really need to use these session's... thanks again for your great help, Dima.
