[PHP] PHP-MySQL connection problem

2002-07-29 Thread Manisha

Hi,

My server is running on shared server which has support for PHP 4.1.2. I 
installed mySQL for our shared server. I also installed phpMyAdmin. Both 
are running properly. But I am facing following problems

1) If there is any error in the script - It is not getting displayed - 
screen is becoming blank, so it is becoming very difficult for me to make 
out any mistake.

2) I am trying to send email - but not getting any email. This is the script

?
$mailBody = This is one line \ n This is a second line \n\n this is a 
third line;

$boolMail = mail ([EMAIL PROTECTED], Test mail, $mailBody);
print (Email has been send );
?

I am getting print statement but not the mail. Any extra settings are 
required ?

Thanks in advance
Manisha

Check PHP.ini and make sure display_errors is ON.

 2) I am trying to send email - but not getting any email. This is the
 script
 ?
 $mailBody = This is one line \ n This is a second line \n\n this is a
 third line;
 
 $boolMail = mail ([EMAIL PROTECTED], Test mail, $mailBody);

Just the settings in PHP.ini in the mail section. Ensure you are even
using a PHP.ini to begin with, too. If there isn't one, PHP will use its
own defaults. 

Load up a page that has just ? Phpinfo(); ? in it and in the first
block shown, it'll tell you where PHP thinks it's PHP.ini file is. Edit
that file if it's there. If it's not, then look for a PHP-ini.dist or
PHP-ini.recommended in the files you downloaded and rename it to PHP.ini
and copy it to that location.

Hi,
I tried to display phpinfo and I am getting following values

display_errors On   On
display_startup_errors On   On

error_append_string  no value   no value
error_logno value   no value
error_prepend_string no valueno value
error_reporting  1 1

(Still there is no display of error)

sendmail_from[EMAIL PROTECTED]   [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sendmail_path /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i  /usr/sbin/sendmail -t -i
short_open_tagOn  On
SMTP   localhost localhost

I changed the script as follows, now it is giving error that - can not even 
queue - btw where the queue is stored ? and where can I see the sendmail log ?

?
$mailBody = This is test email;

$boolMail = mail ([EMAIL PROTECTED], Test mail subj from local linux 
server - PHP, $mailBody);
if ($boolMail){
   print Email has been queued.;
}
else{
   print Can not even queue email;
}


?

I tried giving mail directly from sendmail going to /usr/sbin - I am not 
sure how to give commands in unix but I tried following block,

---

shellcd /usr/sbin
shellsendmail manisha
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Subject: Test from new aurica
kl;efkvg;lkf

rkfkrjek

sdjkfjsd

^D - to terminate it

message given  - Failed to send message to any users





Now how shall I proceed ?

Thanks and regards

[PHP] PHP/mysql connection problem

2002-07-07 Thread Jo

Hey all, this is probably more to do with Mysql but I figured i'd ask here as well.

The problem:
When connecting to the mysql server on the local machine its fine, but when you 
connect to a remote machine 
eg $db = mysql_connect(x.x.x.x, user, password);
and request something from the database, it connects, BUT it takes about 5 minutes...


any ideas???

Jo

I have an idea, yes. Make sure that the machine you are connecting to 
can do a reverse lookup on the machine you are connecting from. Meaning, 
either your DNS has to be properly configured to include thie remote 
machine, or you need to add it to your /etc/hosts file.

To see whether I'm even on the right track, try to telnet or ftp 
manually rather than make a database connection. You should see the same 
timeout condition occur, because the remote machine will basically try 
to see who is connecting, and if it can't figure it out, it's going to 
first time out before giving up.

Happy hacking.

Chris

that depends on load on the server  or network i think... how much info are you tring 
to get? try it will a very small amount and see if there is a difference...
