Re: [PHP] Upgrade

We are an ISP hosting lots of website. Upgrading from 4 to 5 means a lot of
sites will have trouble.
Personally I have some problem of upgrading from 4 to 5.
The below codes work on 4:
include(DB/DataObjects.php);
$pro = DB_DataObject::factory('Product');
$pro-find();
while($pro-fetch())
$allPro[] = $pro;
But on 5, it has to be modified to
include(DB/DataObjects.php);
$pro = DB_DataObject::factory('Product');
$pro-find();
while($pro-fetch())
$allPro[] = clone $pro;
The above is only an example. So upgrading to 5 is not an option for us.

You might want to start a migration path for your code in the near
future. i would suggest something like the following:
?php
# File: myLib.php
function myClone( $someObject )
{
static $init = true;
if( $init )
{
if( (int)phpversion() 5 )
{
require_once( 'php4Compat.php' );
}
else
{
require_once( 'php5Compat.php' );
}
}
$clone = compat_myClone( $someObject );
return $clone;
}
# File: php4Compat.php
function compat_myClone( $someObject )
{
$clone = $someObject;
return $clone;
}
# File: php5Compat.php
function compat_myClone( $someObject )
{
$clone = clone $someObject;
return $clone;
}
?
This way you can still use PHP4 while providing the necessary changes
for PHP5 before fully switching over.
Cheers,
Rob.
Ps. I used references so PHP4 wouldn't create copies at every
function call :)

Re: [PHP] Upgrade to PHP5 on Fedora Core
Dave M G a écrit : PHP List, My hosting service allows me enough access to do things like handle my own upgrades and full administrative access. Usually, because I am more of a web designer than an server administrator, I get their support staff to manage upgrades and installations. However, that does cost money, so I thought this time, if it's easy enough, I would try upgrading PHP myself. Currently my hosting service is running PHP Version 4.4.2, and I would like to upgrade to the latest stable build of PHP 5. what happens if your upgrade doesn't work ? At home, I use Ubuntu LTS, and to upgrade to PHP 5 I just used apt-get (with the Synaptic GUI) to upgrade. It was very easy. The hosting machine is using Fedora Core 1. I'm less familiar with Red Hat systems, but I do understand that yum is the equivalent of apt-get. you can find apt packets for RedHat FC1 So, I'm hoping I can just do: yum install php5 ... and be off and running. But because I don't really want to suffer any downtime, I hoped to get confirmation here on this list that this will work, and check if I need any other configuration options. there are also some differences between php 4.2.2 and 5.x.y. could you try to set up another apache that will use your php5, so you can do the basic tests before upgrading ? you can set up another apache server to listen to another port, so the switch to the latest version is easy, and the switch back in case of an error with php5 is also easy. do you have any http backup server ? do you have backups of your http server (if there is no http backup server). If it makes a difference, I'm also running MySQL 5.0 on the system, and Apache 2. Is there anything else I need to know for a smooth upgrade to PHP 5? Did you ask the hosting service guys for how they manage php upgrades ? (I know they won't give you infos you paid for easily). hope this'll help N F -- Dave M G -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

Re: [PHP] Upgrade question
If you installed PHP from the Redhat RPMs, you may want to see if the fedoralegacy project has a newer RPM for your distribution. Otherwise, you're somewhat on your own. What I would do is, run phpinfo, it will output the configure options used to build PHP, copy those and then run them on your 4.3.10 directory, you'll know if something breaks, if it doesn't you'll install like you wanted to. Technically, since you are at Rackspace, you should be able to tell your support team to upgrade it for you. I think thats what the managed part is for.

Re: [PHP] Upgrade question
Rackspace will only support 7.1 up to the point where RPMs hit eol. Translation: They stopped supporting 7.1. Because Rackspace donates the server for SurfSafely.com, telling my support team would be a bit harsh. Asking is what I do and they're still deliberating. While they deliberate, here is what I discovered. Running ./configure with the original options from phpinfo, I ran into three dependencies, ONE AT A TIME. 1) For some reason it couldn't find BZip2 even though support for it is enabled. Upgraded to 1.0.2. 2) ./configure again and it reported it needs cURL 7.9.8 or higher. Mine was 7.8.0 so I upgraded to 7.13.0. 3) Lastly it wanted to see pspell. Again, .11.1 was already installed and enabled but configure couldn't see it at all. I upgraded to .12.2. This time success upgrading to PHP 4.3.10! Full stop then start to Apache, eh voi la! Now I can finally move on to *WHY* I needed the PHP upgrade in the first place, to upgrade other software packages that wouldn't budge without it. Aren't dependencies fun?

c:\Inetpub\wwwroot\Inpae\admin\lib\headerFooter.php on line 40
All related to $_SESSION, like the values are not set (sitedesc is one of
the indexes of the variable $_SESSION)
But when you first start a session, a totally NEW session, is
$_SESSION['sitedoc'] initialized?
I assume not.
Your problem code looks something like this:
?php
session_start();
if ($_SESSION['sitedoc']){
//whatever;
}
?
PHP is notifying you that there is NO session index named 'sitedoc' yet,
but you're trying to read it and use the value -- the value that doesn't
exist.
You'll need to get in the habit of writing (and re-writing) code like this:
?php
session_start();
if (isset($_SESSION['sitedoc']) $_SESSION['sitedoc']){
//whatever
}
?
You may also re-structure your code a bit if 'sitedoc' can take on several
values, so it ends up being more like:
?php
session_start();
if (isset($_SESSION['sitedoc'])){
if ($_SESSION['sitedoc'] == 'whatever'){
}
elseif ($_SESSION['sitedocd'] == 'something else'){
}
}
?
The point is that you shouldn't be reading session variables that were
never set to any value at all in the first place.
Sure, PHP will initialize them to 0 or '' or false, but the point here is
to catch typos where you have:
if ($_SESSION['sietdoc']){
}
else{
}
If you RARELY expect 'sitedoc' to be a TRUE value, and you don't do a lot
of unit testing, a typo bug like this could go undetected for a long
time.
The PHP Notice warns you about things like this by not notifying you when
you try to read a variable that hasn't been set.

The problem is that when the rpm was built and bundled, it was on a system that had all the 'devel' rpm's installed. The 'devel' rpm's usually contain's all the files needed to detect and compile with php. One option is to install all the devel rpms that are dependent on php to be configured with all those options. The other option would involve bringing your system out of the dependency of RPM's, I wouldn't suggest that unless your very comfortable with RH's system. The last one, and perhaps the best solution, is to scratch that system and build a new one with a more current OS.

I noticed some very strange behavior which leads me to believe 4.3.0 is not stable, and shouldn't be used in a production environment.

Re: [PHP] upgrade to 4.3.0 nearly doubled execution time
I'm betting this is related... I upgraded to 4.3.0 on my production linux servers and began to have serious socket connection issues. Rolling back to 4.2.3 cleared everything up. I also saw an increase in script execution times with 4.3.0, which became much better using 4.2.3. I noticed some very strange behavior which leads me to believe 4.3.0 is not stable, and shouldn't be used in a production environment. So, all I can suggest for now is to determine what it is you need, and if a newer version of PHP will suit, go for it. But stay away from 4.3.0 and 4.3.1 (which I've read up on and hasn't addressed any of these issues).

Re: [PHP] upgrade to 4.3.0 nearly doubled execution time
Yes, I have noticed some performance issues as well, but we need to nail it down better before we can start really going after this. Could we call on the collective masses of php-general users to run some benchmark tests? Just build yourselves a libphp4.so for both 4.2.x and 4.3.x and switch the LoadModule line back and forth to benchmark the two versions. Then use something like http_load (http://www.acme.com/software/http_load/) to check various simple scripts. We need to figure out if this is an across-the-board performance problem or if it is one particular aspect which has slowed down. -Rasmus On Sat, 22 Feb 2003, Jason k Larson wrote: I'm betting this is related...

Re: [PHP] upgrade issues
It looks like your code is using register globals which are turned off
by default in PHP 4.2 and greater. You can either modify your code to
use the PHP super globals or turn register globals back on (you can do
this in php.ini or via an httpd.conf/.htaccess).

Re: [PHP] Upgrade help!
In case any one else needs to know: I had to erase the rpm version of gd, gd-devel and libpng, libpng-devel The rpm versions were 1.0.12. For some reason the configure option -with-png-dir=../libpng-1.2.1 was using the headers from the right dir, but somehow used the rpm version for compiling instead. Is this a bug? Shouldn't it use libpng-1.2.1 for everything?

Re: [PHP] upgrade problems
http://www.php.net/manual/sv/printwn/language.variables.predefined.php -or this- quote from the docs In PHP 4.2.0 and later, the default value for the PHP directive register_globals is off. This is a major change in PHP. Having register_globals off affects the set of predefined variables available in the global scope. For example, to get DOCUMENT_ROOT you'll use $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] instead of $DOCUMENT_ROOT, or $_GET['id'] from the URL http://www.example.com/test.php?id=3 instead of $id, or $_ENV['HOME'] instead of $HOME. /quote Brad Bonkoski wrote: This should be a FAQ!

We have to upgrade our PHP to the latest stable version on Redhat Linux 7.3. We have lots of user using our PHP so what are all the precautions and steps involved while doing this operations without disturbing their existing program. At a minimum, we gotta know what version you are *ON*... For starters, you should *WARN* your clients of the impending upgrade. Then *THEY* can prepare any known issues like register_globals etc. Make 100% sure that you also keep all the extensions to PHP you already have. Maybe add a couple more. Maybe upgrade the old ones while you are at it. You *ARE* going to install on a DEVELOPMENT box with no customers and test first, right? Do a backup of the PRODUCTION box before installing, of course. Upgrade very early Monday morning so that corporate customers: A) Don't lose a lot of stuff if you need to back off to your backup B) Are coming in to work anyway, so any problems you've created are solvable at their work-hours, not 4 am on a Sunday. Most sites can be down for a few hours and just blame it on network errors or something... Though if there are mission-critical sites on that server... Well, you ought to have roll-over fail-safes in the first place, right? Upgrade one at a time, and be ready to roll-over fast.

From what I know about programming, I am setting globals where appropriate already.. but apparently I am incorrect, since upgrading to 4.2.2 broke all my stuff unless I turn [register_globals] on. Any suggestions? Keeping register_globals OFF simply gives you the opportunity to make less mistakes in your code. When you have a link like http://www.example.com/page.php?ID=1, reg_globals ON will create a variable $ID that you can use in your script. The problem is, you don't know if it came from the URL, a POSTed form, a COOKIE, or what. The second problem is that if I use the variable $blah somewhere in my script, a malicious user could pass a value of $blah through the URL, POST, or COOKIE, and create problems in my code. With reg_globals OFF, you have to access the variables in the $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE, etc, arrays. $_GET['ID'] for the example above, tells you for sure that the value came from the URL. Also, if I make a variable $blah somewhere in my script, I know that the user can't affect it's value at all, even by passing ?blah=foo in the URL. So basically you should begin using the superglobal arrays $_GET, $_POST, $_COOKIE, $_ENV, $_SERVER, and $_SESSION in your scripts...

Re: [PHP] upgrade 4.1.2 to 4.2.2 (passing vars problem with 4.2.2)
If you need register globals on for your old stuff, but want to write better new code, you can just use ?php ini_set(register_globals, 0); ? in your new stuff. If you are trying to turn register_globals off for the whole system, make sure you're changing the right php.ini. phpinfo(); will give you the location where PHP looks for your php.ini. If you run the command line version (command line and apache module), just run $ php -r 'phpinfo();' | grep 'php.ini' from the command line -Evan -- What you cannot enforce, do not command.

You can't do this in a php file... by the time it gets to this line, it's too late. According to the set_ini function on php.net, register_globals is only set-able in the ini file or in .htaccess.

Pushkar, The followings are used for compiling Apache+mysql+php with DSO. Questions are: At step (3), Is it correct to compile PHP as a DSO by using --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs ? At the step (4), should I add the following two lines? --enable-shared=ssl --activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a -- (1) # cd mysql-3.23.44 # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/mysql # make # make install (2) # cd apache_1.3.22 # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache (3) # cd php-4.2.0 # ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \ --with-apache=../apache_1.3.22 \ --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \ --enable-track-vars (4) # cd apache_1.3.22 # ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/apache \ enable-module=php4 enable-shared=php4 enable-module=rewrite enable-shared=rewrite Thank you for your help.

Re: [PHP] upgrade installation
Sorry for the redundant suggestion, I see you've already tried it. Dealing with as much mail as there is on this list, you can see that I often cut corners. If --with-db2 is not working, perhaps it is because you need to install the Berkeley database first. You might have gdbm (Gnome dbm) already installed (my RedHat 6.1 does), or maybe you can install it off a distribution CD. gdbm does much the same as the Berkeley database ... it is configured with: --with-gdbm Hope this helps Michael On Sun, 4 Feb 2001, Michael Hall wrote: Bom Dia Vinicius: Try this: before you reinstall PHP, make sure you delete the old config.cache file ... it is in the same directory where you do config/make/install.

Nou ik weet het niet zeker want ik gebruik hetzelfde als jij maar dan met Apache (wist je dat PWS van Microsoft is?? En dat Apache prima draait onder Win 98?). Misschien moet je eens op de upgrade pagina's kijken van PHP. Je kunt ook kijken of je kunt vonden welke exe nu gebruikt wordt; de oude of de nieuwe, en of hij wel de php.ini leest en niet php3.ini, die laatste is onleesbaar voor php4 denk ik! Heb je ge-edit in php.ini? Dan moest ik in de Apache configuratie nog veranderen van AddType application/x-httpd-php3 .php naar to AddType application/x-httpd-php .php (AddType is een Apache commando maar de rest kan ook op PWS van toepassing zijn.)
