Hi,
 Let me open a discussion about php5 / php4
 Why upgrade? It worth? Benefits? Code programming changes?
 Is there and end-of-life for php4, in the near/medium future?
 What about MySQL and SQLite. What is the future of both? I would like to

version of it...

not that this horse hasn't been flogged to death, whats your own opinion?

...when even Richard Lynch is begrudgingly starting to use foreach() it might be
time to move on and upgrade ;-)

RE: [PHP] php5 / php4 - MySQL/SQLite

2005-11-08 Thread Robbert van Andel
I recently upgraded to PHP5 and had no issues with code incompatibilities.
I believe we ran PHP 4.10 (I don't remember the exact version).  Honestly, I
haven't seen that many benefits but I don't write that many scripts that use
advanced OOP methodology.

[PHP] PHP5 qne MySQL

2005-05-19 Thread Terrence Mullin
 I have been trying to set an area at home to run and
 test php and MySQL applications. I used the tutorial
 on http://www.ricocheting.com/server/cgi.html 
 to install Apache, PHP, and MySQL. Everything is
 working great except for trying to test a simple
 connection to the MySQL database through php. I have
 seen some other people quote on how PHP5 no longer
has
 a direct link to MySQL. My platform is Windows XP at
 the moment. I will shortly be partitioning two hard
 drives for use of Linux on one of them. I would like
 to know if there is a solution for WIndows XP. I
have
 seen people just go back to php4 to correct this. I
 was wondering if there is a simple way I can stick
 with PHP5 and make my connections. I receive this
 error right now:
 
 Fatal error: Call to undefined function
 mysql_connect() in C:\public_html\MySQLphptry.php on
 line 18
 
 Where line 18, is just the mydsql_connect ();
command.
 Thank you for your help in this I know myself as
well
 as other forums out there would like to know a
simple
 solution if there is one.

SIncerely,
Terry Mullin

Try to edit your PHP.INI file
check if PHP_MYSQL.DLL in declared as module...
if the file is in the path...
But try to use MySQLi or PDO (PHP 5.1 or PECL modules for PHP 5.0)
This is a must better way to acces mysql Database...

[PHP] php5 and mysql 4.1 - Authentication

2004-11-02 Thread Thomas Hochstetter
Hi there,
 
I am sure there has been a discussion about this previously, I couldn't find
much through google though . anyway. I know I must use mysqli, and that is
also not the problem. The problem is with things like phpmyadmin and bxcms.
I am not going through all the code to fix the mysql connections. Is there
no way I can tell MySQL4.1.6 to accept http authentication? This seems to be
the overall problem, because it foes not even find the right access password
once a connection is establishes (using the OLD_PASSWORD() function).

[PHP] php5 and mysql licences

2003-06-30 Thread Christopher Speer
Hello,

i just read the news on php.net and wondered what it says about php5 and
MySQL.
They say that the libs for using a mysql server are not implemented any
more,... so my question is: does that mean i (we) have to buy the licences
to be allowed to use the mysql libs for php?

kind regards

No, that is not true. You will only need to buy a MySQL license if your
script uses PHP's MySQL 4.x support (ie, linking to libmysql 4.x), you
distribute your script AND you do not want to distribute your set of
script under the GPL license (but under for example the BSD license or a
commerical license).

No, we will not bundle the library with PHP 5 anymore.

There will always be MySQL support in PHP of one kind or another.  The
only change in PHP5 is that we are no longer bundling the client library
itself.  Some reasons in no particular order:

  1. Most systems these days already have the client library installed.
  2. Given 1, having multiple versions of the library can get messy.
 For example, if you link mod_auth_mysql against 1 version and PHP
 against another and then enable both in Apache, you get a nice fat
 crash.  Also, the bundled library didn't always play well with the
 installed server version the most obvious symptom of this being
 disagreement over where to find the mysql.socket unix domain socket
 file.
  3. Maintenance was somewhat lax and it was falling further and further
 behind the released version.
  4. Future versions of the library are under the GPL and thus we don't
 have an upgrade path since we cannot bundle a GPL'ed library in a
 BSD/Apache-style licensed project.  A clean break in PHP5 seemed like
 the best option.

This won't actually affect that many people.  UNIX users, at least the
ones who know what they are doing, tend to always build PHP against their
system's libmyqlclient library simply by doing --with-mysql=/usr when
building PHP.

For the beta1 release, it went out without a mysql.dll extension because
we haven't quite worked out how to handle it, not because the final PHP5
release will not have MySQL support.  Of course it will and Windows users
will not be affected.

[PHP] PHP5 with MySQL on windows

2003-06-29 Thread janet
I can't seem to figure out how to get PHP5 working with MySQL support. I just
downloaded the latest PHP5 from snaps (which seems to be yesterday's build)
and it's installed fine, but I can't seem to get MySQL support.

The php.ini file still says 
;Note that MySQL and ODBC support is now built in, so no dll is needed for it.

However, MySQL support is no longer there. There doesn't seem to by any dll
for mysql in the extensions subdirectory. 

There's a libmySQL.dll in dlls, but copying that into my system directory and
adding an extension line for it in the php.ini file doesn't work. I get an
error that says invalid library. Besides, it obviously has a different name
that the other extension dlls.

I am using Windows 2000. I am running MySQL 3.23.54. 

I can find nothing about this on the PHP web site. Everything I find still
says that MySQL support is built-in. Can someone tell me what I need to do to
use MySQL.

Re: [PHP] PHP5 with MySQL on windows

2003-06-29 Thread Philip Olson
Hello Janet-

Currently you have two choices:

  a) Compile PHP 5 on Windows yourself, with MySQL support
  b) Wait for a DLL to exist

There isn't a DLL right now, nor do I know when one will
exist.  But, you can be pretty sure that one will 
eventually exist, especially before PHP 5 is officially
released.

PHP 5 beta 1 was released today, there isn't a MySQL DLL
in there either.

In PHP 4, MySQL is of course built in.  That all changed
in PHP 5 where it's no longer built in to the Windows
binaries, nor is it bundled or enabled by default in *nix.

Regards,
Philip
