Re: [PHP] Warning at PDO:Firebird driver manual page removed.
Dear Lester, Thank you very much for your attention. You gave me the exact explanation which solved all my doubts about using PDO:Firebird. Actually I'm building step by step a abstract layer file for general use on these projects, and it works fine for us, using the php_interbase extension functions. Unfortunately I can't share the code here, due to ethics contract. But I'll stay in touch in the discussion group you've sent and keep informed. Certainly I'll find more PHP/Firebird developers there.

The session cookie must be sent prior to any output. Including, but
not limited to, comments, whitespace, HTML code, etc.
Even a blank line before the first ?php line will be enough to tell
the web server that all the headers have been sent and to start
sending data.
At that stage, the session cookie - which is sent as a header - cannot
be sent as all the headers have been sent.
Options.
1 - Use output buffering. This tells PHP to not output anything until
the end of the script. So echo's, print's, etc. don't send their data
directly. This allows out of order headers and body to be sent and the
server sorts it all out at the end. You can override output_buffering
at runtime, but if headers have been sent due to white space, it won't
help with the session cookie.
2 - Remove all white space. Personally, this is the route I would use.

Thanks for all your suggestions such as removing whitespace before the ?php

I didn't realize that connecting to the MySQL database involved sending a
header: eg. mysql_connect($host, $user, $mysql_pass);
Does this mean this mysql_connect statement should go before the html tag
- even though mysql_connect is part of my conditional statement for logging
in? (code is below)
I primarily solved the header problem on my login page with a simple
replacement.
I used this line: echo 'script
language=javascriptlocation.href=first_page.php/script';
Instead of: header (Location: first_page.php);
And the page redirected :)
However, I'm still experiencing issues with session_start() -- once the
user's login password has been verified, the session begins and their
session ID is saved as a variable -- this process takes place in the middle
of the code, after the header. I can't put this right at the beginning of
the code. In this case, from what I understand, I should use output
buffering?

Sorry, I forgot the alternative.. You can use simply meta refresh
which is working anyway.
Usually I insert more than one redirector function to my script...
Eg.:
...
$back = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . '?action=login';
//header('Location: '.$back.'');
echo 'meta http-equiv=refresh content=0;url='.$back.' /';

Compare your configuration files. The option that's likely different here
is output_buffering. See the manual for full details:
http://php.net/outcontrol.configuration
To avoid this in future I suggest you make sure the configuration you're
running in production matches that which you're running in development,
other than display_errors (off or to a file in production, on in dev). In
fact it doesn't really matter if they're different so long as you know
what's different, why and that the code you write can cope with both, but
I'd recommend they're as similar as is logical.

I'd appreciate any insight! Thnx!

Note the first error (quoted herein). That tells you that the
variable ($thumbsarray) is not actually an array. How is it being
instantiated and defined?
The only earlier reference to $thumbsarray is in the first lines of the
file :
?php
mysql_select_db($database_general, $general);
$query_details = SELECT * FROM news WHERE news_id = '$_GET[id]';
$details = mysql_query($query_details, $general) or die(mysql_error());

$i = 1;

$thumbsarray[$i] = $row_thumbs;

This is exactly the same as the code which is working for the 'projects'

Mike,
Little weird. I executed the same lines of code against my sample database

If you didn't get any warnings on your test machine, it might just be
because of a different error reporting being set up.
As for the local test, did it work as expected? If so, and the code
hasn't changed, then it might be the actual tables in the database. If
there are no rows returned where you expected some, and the code expects
rows as an array, then it could be the cause of the problem.

Nothing is returned for SELECT query as there is nothing in the table as

is necessary to stop this warning? Should I change the code to allow for

If you haven't in your code, then make sure you define $thumbsarray as
an array before you attempt to use it in the loop. This will have no
effect where rows are returned, but it will ensure an empty array exists
if your code expects it and there is no data in the database to populate
it.

With no rows returned, there's no array. The while() loop doesn't
even trigger there.
You could either add some dummy data, populate the rows, or adjust
the code like so:
?php
if (isset($thumbsarray) is_array($thumbsarray)) {
while (list($key, $value) = each($thumbsarray)) {
// ...
}
} else {
// There are no thumbs. Oh, my God, the horror! No thumbs!
}

Re: [PHP] Warning messages on web page.
Mike,
A couple of things that I could understand reading carefully at the error.
1. reset takes an array as the input and perhaps your $thumbsarray is *not *an
array? Reset will set the internal pointer to the start of the array.
2. Warning # 2 is very closely related to #1 since you can iterate on an
array and not on a variable.
3. Just FYI - You can control the behavior should or not these
warnings/notices/errors in your php.ini file. Do a quick google and you
should be happy to see the result.

Shreyas

Well formed question. Thanks for that. I see too many which aren't.
I can't say why it's happening, but the $thumbsarray variable isn't
getting built the way it should. You can insert a line just before your
errors pop up like:
?php echo '$thumbsarray: '; print_r($thumbsarray); ?
or
?php echo '$thumbsarray: '; echo var_dump($thumbsarray); ?
or something similar. This will tell you if the variable is set and what
type it has. I'm guessing it's not set. You'll have to look earlier to
see where it should be built and isn't.

doesn't this work?:
?php ini_set('session.bug_compat_warn', 0); ?
otherwise you'll have to set it in php.ini (or a .htaccess file)
IIRC it means your using session_register() .. which is depreciated and
will be dropped in 5.3 ... AFAIK best practices is not to use this
function
but instead assing to the $_SESSION superglobal.
Jochem:
Two things:
1. Your solution worked. Setting --
?php ini_set('session.bug_compat_warn', 0); ?
-- worked!!! Thank you.
np :)
2. I don't use session_register(). So has to be something else, but I
don't know what that might be.
Anyone have any ideas?
pretty sure Shawn nailed it.
Daniel?
Cheers,
tedd

Hey guys, Did some digging... looks like the host for http://outsourcingroom.com is http://hosting.ua/. Also, outsourcingroom looks to be owned by http://www.cbsystematics.com. The host for this company website is http://parking.ru. Hopefully this information can be of use to someone a little more legal-eagle than myself.

Re: [PHP] Warning: Division by zero
I have a script that is a result of data entered in a form
On the script (when I test without data entry), I am getting a warning that
Warning: Division by zero in .inc.php on line 15.
The warning is correct, however the viewer cannot access the second script
without entering the data that would cancel the warning.
Is this something I should worry about? or would it be better to right in an
isset?
Well, just as a general rule, you'll want to validate all possible
user input. That includes checking whether or not particular input
has been defined, whether or not it is valid for it's intended use and
whether or not it's malicious.
Applying that guideline to your situation, I would check to see if:
* the input is set
* the input is numeric
If either or those are not true, I would default the value to 1 since
division is being used. e.g.,
$iVar = 1;
if(( isset( $_REQUEST['MY_NUMBER'] ) ( is_numeric(
$_REQUEST[MY_NUMBER']))) {
$iVar = $_REQUEST['MY_NUMBER'];
}
$iCalculatedValue = $x / $iVar;
thnx,

Re: [PHP] Warning: Division by zero
Thanks for your response.
The error I am getting is when I am defining a variable.
(line 15) $percent_difference=($assess_difference)/($assess_value);
Does this make a difference?
Thanks again for all your help.

Re: [PHP] Warning: Division by zero
The error I am getting is when I am defining a variable. (line 15) $percent_difference=($assess_difference)/($assess_value); Does this make a difference? No, it doesn't make a difference. The simple fact is that $assess_value is either undefined or has been set to 0 at some point. For it's use in the above equation, neither case is valid. Consequently, you really should be doing some validation at some point prior to that line. thnx, Christoph -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Nope, it's just http, port 80, and not to IIS. To be clear, PHP scripts/processes on Server A (Mac OS X Server 10.4.11, PHP 5.2.4) are issuing these http requests (file_get_contents) to Servers B (Centos 5.2) and itself (Server A). The failures occur on attempts to Server B and A (itself), but only in one process at a time. (Server A is running several identical scripts/ processes -- even while one fails for a while, the others work -- that is, Servers B and A respond fine.) ...Rene -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

What makes you think that will result in a parse error?...
:-)
$var is an expression
@$var will suppress any error messages of that expression
So I'm pretty sure that not only will that not result in a parse
error, it's a Documented Feature.
For example, if you have E_NOTICE on, and you didn't want to actaully
FIX your code correctly, the @ would suppress the E_NOTICE from this
(complete) script:
?php
function my_function identity($foo){
return $foo;
}
my_function($bar); //E_NOTICE is output
my_function(@$baz); //no E_NOTICE
?
At least, that's what *I* would expect to happen, and it did in my
quickie CLI test I just ran, I think...
Not sure I even had E_NOTICE cranked up in CLI, but it sure wasn't a
parse error.

However, I get a Warning: chmod(): Operation not permitted error when trying to set the permission, what gives? If my program created the file, shouldn't it have permission to set the files permissions? What am I not understanding? Without seeing code, permissions of the directories, what sticky bits might or might not be set, etc., you could not be understanding many thingsor just onewho knows. I read all of your Google links, but no help. Just another example of how Google is not the answer. Then you're asking the wrong question. In any event, my code is pretty simple, just: chmod($url, 0755); //where $url is the file I want to change. The error I receive is noted above in the subject line. The permissions of the directories vary, but the folder that has the file I want to change permissions is currently set at 0777. Nice security there. Regardless, even if the user your webserver is running as has write permission to the directory (don't know who owns/what group that directory belongs to, as you didn't tell us that), you won't be able to change permissions of a file in that directory if the file isn't owned by the same user apache is running as. In doing a lstat() of both the parent program that created the file and the child file shows that they both have the identical uid and gid (i.e., the same user and group id's). And what user does Apache run as? Now, everything I've read, says: chmod() changes the permission of the specified file with the following caveat. chmod() can only change the permissions of files that are owned by the user running the command. In most cases, this is the user that the web server runs on. That confuses me, because who's the user here? Is it just the system administrator or the application? And if it is just the system administrator, then can't the system admin change anything he/she wants anyway? What's the point of having uid and gid's if a program can't change the permissions of a sibling file? This question should answer the previous question for you. I have tons of references as to what php filesystem functions are available, but I need a good reference as to what permissions are and how they actually can be changed in php -- does anyone have one a good reference OR care to explain?

In most cases, this is the user that the web server runs on. That confuses me, because who's the user here? Is it just the system administrator or the application? This is the user that Apache (or whatever webserver) is running as. If you're using Apache, look at your httpd.conf file to find out who that user is. If you're creating files successfully, you can just look at the owner of that file to find out who it is. Is safe_mode enabled? From the manual (http://us3.php.net/chmod): In my code, I use: ini_set( 'safe_mode', '0' ); Which I think disables safe_mode and from what I've read, the default is off and in my phpinfo, it says it's 'off -- so I think it's off. :-) Note: When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the files or directories you are about to operate on have the same UID (owner) as the script that is being executed. In addition, you cannot set the SUID, SGID and sticky bits. I understand that, except for the sticky bits -- I don't know what they are, but will look them up later. But safe_mode is off, so any application should be able to chmod(), right? However, when my application tries to change permissions via chmod(), it fails and generates a warning. BUT -- considering that this is a permission issue and not a php one, as I've been told, I'll end this thread and look elsewhere for an answer.

I have tons of references as to what php filesystem functions are available, but I need a good reference as to what permissions are and how they actually can be changed in php -- does anyone have one a good reference OR care to explain? You should be able to Google for a Linux filesystem permissions how-to and get what you want here. -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I read all of your Google links, but no help. Just another example of how Google is not the answer. In any event, my code is pretty simple, just: chmod($url, 0755); //where $url is the file I want to change. The error I receive is noted above in the subject line. The permissions of the directories vary, but the folder that has the file I want to change permissions is currently set at 0777. In doing a lstat() of both the parent program that created the file and the child file shows that they both have the identical uid and gid (i.e., the same user and group id's). Now, everything I've read, says: chmod() changes the permission of the specified file with the following caveat. chmod() can only change the permissions of files that are owned by the user running the command. In most cases, this is the user that the web server runs on. That confuses me, because who's the user here? Is it just the system administrator or the application? And if it is just the system administrator, then can't the system admin change anything he/she wants anyway?

RE: [PHP] Warning: chmod(): Operation not permitted ?
chmod() can only change the permissions of files that are owned by the user running the command. In most cases, this is the user that the web server runs on. That confuses me, because who's the user here? Is it just the system administrator or the application? This is the user that Apache (or whatever webserver) is running as. If you're using Apache, look at your httpd.conf file to find out who that user is. If you're creating files successfully, you can just look at the owner of that file to find out who it is. Is safe_mode enabled? From the manual (http://us3.php.net/chmod): Note: When safe mode is enabled, PHP checks whether the files or directories you are about to operate on have the same UID (owner) as the script that is being executed. In addition, you cannot set the SUID, SGID and sticky bits. So, if you're running in safe mode, the php file, and the files that you need to modify have to be owned by the same user. Say you have process.php which is operating on the uploaded files, and it is owned by the jondoe user. The files that you wanted to chmod() would also have to be owned by jondoe, which is probably not the case. Apache is often run under the apache, www, or nobody user.

RE: [PHP] Warning: filemtime() (errno=75 - Value too large for defined data type)
-Original Message-
From: Andrew Brampton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Sent: Sunday, May 29, 2005 7:36 PM
Hi,
I'm receiving the following warning:
Warning: filemtime(): Stat failed for master.log (errno=75 - Value too
large
for defined data type) in test.php on line 5
when I do the following line of code:
filemtime ('master.log');
The file in question is over 2GB, but I'm not interested in its size, I
just want to know the time it was last modified.
2 gigs? Ever considered rotating the logfile?
I presume filemtime is just doing a stat which is failing when it tries to
read the size field. Whatever the cause filemtime is returning false and
displaying that warning.
Does anyone know a work around for this warning (which does not involve
shelling out a command line app)?
Rotate the logfile for instance once a month, Tar it up and move it to a proper
place
My code was working fine until the file reached 2GB.
P.S I'm running PHP 4.3.10-13 on a Debian distro.
On some older systems there´s a 2gb limit:
http://archives.neohapsis.com/archives/sf/forensics/2002-q2/0031.html
Let me guess. The file is 2GB? If so, this is simply because your
file utilities are not compiled with large file (64 bit) support.
Here are some notes I have on fixing things for Linux:
Updates to Red Hat 7.1 system required to deal with large (2GB)
partition image files with The Coroner's Toolkit and TCTutils/autopsy.
I think that´s the problem. Rotating the logfile is a nice and simple solution.
