Re: [PHP] PHP script won't run in the background
Hi:
I mean, do you built your php with readline support, or do you load
readline.so into PHP?
if so, remove it, then try again.
and you also can use:
gdb --pid={the pid of the stopped php}
then you will find where the php hangs.
thanks

Those patterns look like a pretty good starting point to me. True, the

the submatches array would contain the actual sequence that is
repeated:
?php
$pattern = '/(\d+?)\1+/';

var_dump($matches);
}
/*

?
Some slight adjustments to the pattern could also be useful.
// This would catch a pattern of any repeating characters, not just
numeric digits
$pattern = '/(.+?)\1+/';
// This would only match if the entire string was a repeated sequence
$pattern = '/^(\d+?)\1+$/';
// This would match the repeated sequence only if the string began
with a repeated sequence.
$pattern = '/^(\d+?)\1+/';
// This would match the repeated sequence only if the string ended
with a repeated sequence.
$pattern = '/(\d+?)\1+$/';
If a string had multiple sequences, you could also use preg_match_all
to find each sequence, but that looks a bit more involved than the OP.
None of these require knowing the sequence in advance. How do they not
satisfy the OP?

Some slight adjustments to the pattern could also be useful.
// This would catch a pattern of any repeating characters, not just
numeric digits
$pattern = '/(.+?)\1+/';
// This would only match if the entire string was a repeated sequence
$pattern = '/^(\d+?)\1+$/';
// This would match the repeated sequence only if the string began
with a repeated sequence.
$pattern = '/^(\d+?)\1+/';
// This would match the repeated sequence only if the string ended
with a repeated sequence.
$pattern = '/(\d+?)\1+$/';
If a string had multiple sequences, you could also use preg_match_all
to find each sequence, but that looks a bit more involved than the OP.
None of these require knowing the sequence in advance. How do they not
satisfy the OP?

something to do with apache, usually we we see this it's something to do with
DNS
lookups ... unlikely in your case.
I figure it's something to do with apaches' content negotiation, possibly it
looks up
your content-type for some reason but ends up not recognizing it (and tries
alsort of
stuff before giving up and just sending the output)
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/content-negotiation.html
question is do you really need application/x-javascript?
won't text/javascript do just fine? or does that have the same problem?
... actually does the problem occur with any value for 'Content-Type'?
Thanks in advance :)

Well, have you tried using Content-Type: text/javascript as
suggested? Is application/x-javascript absolutely necessary for
whatever application is reading your script's output? As it has
already been mentioned, Apache may be looking for your content type in
some sort of lookup table, not finding it, and taking its sweet time
returning control back to PHP while it grabs at straws to match.

Re: [PHP] PHP script lag (5 secs) when declaring mime type.
Thankyou,
I took application/x-javascript directly from the apache setup for my
domain so this should be correct.
However I've just deactivated gzip (zlib.output_compression OFF in
php.ini) and that stopped the problem.
I've given you a simplified version of the script that has the exact
same problem (the original one gets the mime type automaticaly and has
the same problem with any files that are gziped (css, html, javascript
etc... but not images.).
So the problem seems to have someting to do with this line :
header('Content-Length: '.filesize('test.js'));
and with gzip ...
I would like to be able to activate gzip again but I need to work out
why I'm getting this bug first.
Apache isn't installed with mod_deflate, should I look into doing this
instead of turning zlib.output_compression on again ?
Is there maybe a bug with PHP 5.2.9 that's causing this problem?
Thankyou :)

I think content-length is not a thing you have to mention. Only I have seen
its required for image type data yet.

Thankyou Andrew Ballard and 9Tel ,
You're welcome. However, you forgot to reply to the list.
You both suggest that it's not necessory to set the Content-Length except
for images etc ... well the problem is that I also need to use this script
for showing images as well as css and javascript.
As I understand, there is no point in using gzip to serve images since
they are usually already compressed and/or not very well suited to
textual compression. In fact, I suspect that if you serve a document
with a Content-Type of image/gif, image/jpeg, image/png, etc., either
PHP or Apache will detect that and bypass the gzip handler. (That's
just a guess, though. I don't have any way at present to test that
theory.)
It's actually part of the dotclear blog system, it's plugin system uses a
very similar code but fetching the mime type automaticaly.
And it's not part of one plugin but used for all the plugins so if any
plugins are installed on any dotclear installation on the server there will
be a lag.
Also I don't see how it would be possible to check file size after gzip ...
doesn't PHP take the file and then pass it through gzip changing the size on
the way ?
Based on Nisse's response, I think you're better off leaving the
Content-Length header out entirely (as we already suggested).
I guess I will have to send an e-mail to the dotclear team to ask their
advice.
Thankyou.

If you have little knowledge about C you can use sysprof on a relatively new Linux distribution and you can see on a live system where the CPU is consumed the most.

Re: [PHP] Php script diagnostic app?
Thanks a lot for that post Paul. It brings up a question though. You said to never ever use that on a production server (an important disclaimer!) so I was wondering what people here used to log and simulate loads. I've used OpenSTA ( http://opensta.org/ ) and I was pleased with the results but it only works with windows. What do you guys generally use under linux? Just squid? Something else? I suppose I can just set up a windows box if I have to since OpenSTA acts as a transparent gateway but if there's a good linux solution out there for recording usage and playing it back concurrently I'd like to hear about it. With OpenSTA to create a test script it's as easy as clicking the record button to create the script and stop when you're done. Then you can go in and manually edit the script if you like and you can play it back as many times as you'd like concurrently (thereby simulating many users). Anyone know of anything like this?

Re: [PHP] php script fails when run from cron
It's remotely possible that your database classes are trying to create temp files or cache files or something in the current working directory which for cron would be... The home directory of the user running it??? I don't even know what it would be, but I know it can be problematic. The cron job IS running as the same user as when you do it on command-line right??? I mean, maybe freetds refuses to connect as 'root' user, and you put the cron in as 'root'? It's going to boil down to user/path/permissions, almost for sure.

there are those that just love to open the joke threads.

RE: [PHP] PHP Script to open phpBB2 accounts
Hi My 1st thought was to look at the mysql query log and see what it takes To create a user. After looking at the set of queries I understood that I Didn't want to go directly to the DB and bypass the phpBB logic. I managed to find a script that uses the minimum phpBB internal functions to create a user. After some more fixing it actually Opens a user so if anyone needs it : http://www.weberdev.com/get_example-4383.html I'm still working on it but the current version works.

RE: [PHP] PHP Script to open phpBB2 accounts
What's there to miss. The create user logic is centralized and fairly easy to follow. If this is too hard for your current situation, you might just want to pass your user information to the phpBB .php file that processes user input. Just another option. (I know these aren't the programs, nor the vars I'm just using this as an example) phpBB_create.php?user=webdevuserpass=webdevuserpass Of course you would do this programmatically with variables from your webdev form.

RE: [PHP] Php Script Stumped!
Hi. Hi! doing this script for an assignment, and got it basically working. the only problems are: Assignment, eh? Generally, folks on the PHP list will not do your homework for you. But I'll offer some light nudges in the right direction for you. 1. wen i load the user form, the focus goes to the login button, and not the first form field. did try putting one it, did not like it. so how do i do this? is there a basic dom example, how to set focus on a form field, when the form loads? Not a PHP issue. Hint: google body onload Generally, you will give your form a name and specify that name and the field name you want to have focus in the body tag. using the onload directive. 2. got a user name and password. and enter username and password, and when the php script loads, it shows the user name and the password. want to hide this, and only have the message, now how do i accomplish this? tried things on the web and tried on google, but could not find any thing for this. PHP doesn't automatically display anything you don't ask it to display. (Other than these occaisional 'error messages' some claim to see ;-) In your code snippet, I happened to notice that you explicitly echo the username and password. I would say the fix for this is don't do that. 3. and got to provide the time, but how do i format it say for australian east standard time? just got the standard time, and jaws reads it out, as one line of text.

Re: [PHP] php script calling another one (on different machine), session variables
I just thought of something... Will this work... (machine A) User hits submit in the Admin Tools to delete a record. (machine A) I send POST variables to a database php script in a NEW WINDOW...at the end of the script...it uses a header() to call the PHP script on machine B...to delete files from that machine. (machine B) after the php script runs and deletes the media files, it displays a SUCCESS...please close window which appears in the new window. The user still has the admin tools, with it's session variables, in the parent window. -James At 2:43 PM -0400 8/1/05, James wrote: I have two Windows machines. machine A has apache/mysql/php (main host) machine B has apache/media server (secondary host for high bandwidth media such as video) I have admin tools (written in PHP and using sesson variables) on A which allows for updating of the database with pictures and such.

Can I send another header() from machine B's script? What will happen to the session variables? How can I hold onto the session variables while moving between web servers? -- -James -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- -James -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

No. You use header when you want to pass additional headers to the browser, that is downloading your content. An example of this would be when you want to serve up a PNG image, instead of html, you would use header(Content-type: image/png) You can use a header to redirect a user to scripts on another system. To do this you would pass a location header header(Location: serverb.com/whatever) If you want to call a script on machine B, then you can either simply use file handling functions eg: fopen(http://machineb/page.php;), or www.php.net/curl But what if I want to RETURN the user to the admin tools? Can I send another header() from machine B's script? What will happen to the session variables? How can I hold onto the session variables while moving between web servers? Do the two machines share a common domain name? are your machines for example boxa.commondomain.com and boxb.commondomain.com if so then you can have the cookies(which hold the session tracking number) operate at the commondomain.com level. All you have to do then is configure one machine to get session files from the other. Otherwise you can use session.use_trans_sid and add the SID to the url when you header(Location) In windows you could do this by setting up a share containing the session files, and modding your php.ini file to reflect that the session info is stored in this file. If you don't have admin access to your boxes, then you could write a session handler on one of the systems to dl the necessary sesssion info on demand. For more info see Having that said, it seems to be a fairly common requirement - so there may be a cleaner solution to the one I have outlined here. I've just never needed it - so therefore I've never come across it. -- -James -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
