    Does self study count as a course? :)

    I can recommend the following books:

    The Suhosin patch only reports the double free() in PHP so if
    anything it's PHP that's not ready for production. You can disable
    the patch but that won't fix the bug in PHP.

I've been told the problem is the Zend Engine.

There's thttp which is really really small. However, keep in mind, Apache has been around for long enugh that at one time a 486 with 32MB of RAm was state of the art.

How small can Apache get?

Pretty darn small. You might find SSL is larger, and certainly SQL Lite will have more of an impact.

I'd try it with apache with as much disabled as possible. You're going to find better support tools for apache anyway. However, the 'throttling' aspect of thttp might be useful in a low-resource setting.

Related, does anyone know of a tutorial or something that will help to
reduce Apache to only the things really needed for PHP, mySQL, SSL? Right
now, our Apache memory footprint is an astounding 120MB !!

How are you counting that? If you've only got 32MB it CAN'T be using 120MB. Unless you are counting VRAM, which is a mistake.

Hello,
I'm having some difficulties with open_basedir. If I include the prefix /home/web25637/ in open_basedir shouldn't it include every directory within this? We're getting this error:

Warning: file_exists() [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/home/web25637/domains/abc.ssf.scout.se/public_html//components/com_sef/sef.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/home/web25637/:/tmp/:/var/www/:/usr/local/lib/php/:/etc/virtual/:/var/uploads/:/var/squirrelmail) in /usr/home/web25637/domains/abc.ssf.scout.se/public_html/index.php on line 46

As you can se, the file is within the prefix which is listed in allowed paths. How could it be the case that we're experiencing open_basedir restriction here?

Cheers,
Patrik

I ran into problems with openbase_dir when using symlinks... They only
really reared their ugly head when I upgraded to 5.1.6 before that they
were OK (tho' if memory serves I had to add both the symlink location
and the directory it pointed to.

Anyway, are symlinks to blame here?

Other than that I don't really know.

Hello Guys,
I thought I was home and dry when the program worked fine on my windows

http://www.website.com/pdf/ED1.pdf%A0 instead of
http://www.website.com/pdf/ED1.pdf.

I'd look at the text that you're working on rather than the regexp. It
looks like some characterset conversion is going wrong - 0xA0 is the
latin-1 non-breaking space character. I'm expect that on your linux
machine that it's being converted to %0A at some point which is
perfectly valid in a URL.

But I'm just guessing.

Good Morning:

I am looking to create a thumbnail from an uploaded image, and then save

I don't have any problem with the image functions, and can successfully
create the thumbnail and push it to the browser or, as is currently set
up, store the data in a database.

What I want to do instead, however, is take that dynamically created
thumbnail and write it to a folder on the server.

If I simply write the file, however, it appears I need to have a folder
chmod'd world read/writable for the process to work.  My network guys do
not want this.

I tried the FTP functions, which work great for copying a file that
already exists somewhere into another folder, but I can't seem to get it
to recognize the buffer as a valid source file location...

Is there a way to use a php FTP function to FTP the file out of the
buffer to a directory on the server, or some other way to write a file to
a folder without making that folder 0777?

Have your program create the folder and assign it 754 or 755, don't create
it via Apache. Thus, the owner will be the famous "nobody".  The 754 means
nobody [your program] has full rights; but the world only has reading
rights.  You'll see all your standard folders created by the system are
755, which is safe also.

and how do apache create directories again?

With tomahawks and bows and arrows.

Some folks make dumb mistakes occasionally especially when in a hurry.

However, the approach of having the script create the folders with 755 or 754 
is correct. Is it not?

Yes, "user" is then set as the "apache user" witch in my case works 
flawlessly. all rights to apache. 
These directories on the other hand is the only writable directories on my 
servers together with /tmp.

Hi All,

If we have variable like :

$var1 = 'abcde 12';
$var2 = 'abcdefghi 34';
$var3 = 'abc 20 def';

Then we want output like :
$var1 = 'abcde';
$var2 = 'abcdefghi';
$var3 = 'abc def';

How regex can help us?.

Thanks in advance.

Use preg_replace to replace all numbers with nothing.

$var = preg_replace ( "/\d+/", "", $var );

Well, stripping the digits is easy

(have that space before the number if there will ALWAYS be a space before the nu,bers you want to remove.

Nope, that will leave

$var3 = 'abc  def';

(note the double space)

it will also leave $var1 = 'abcdef ';

It's very difficult to get the right solution to a problem when all you provide is examples. If you want accurate help please provide an accurate description of the problem you're trying to solve rather than a few before and afters.

It may or may not be what you're after, but it handles all your examples.

Hi all,

I have an associative array, which contains parent and child relationships. I've searched the web for creating a tree structure from this and found a few good sites but doesnt help 100% perhaps someone can point me in the correct direction? I've started to code it got to a point where I cant go any further, the code is pseudo code and dont want to reinvent the wheel.

any suggestions would be really appreciated.

    I don't think there's any graph-manipulation library for PHP
    (there's a bit of addEdge(), addNode() stuff in Image_GraphViz[1]
    but it doesn't seem useful). Until someone wraps Agraph or
    Boost.Graph in a module: check out Iterator, Builder, and Composite
    in Design Patterns[2].

Hello,

I need PHP's IMAP extension for my web app but it is really slowing my 
server up.

My setup: Fedora Core 5, Apache 2.2.2, PHP 5.1.4 (run as CGI with suPHP), 
PHP IMAP extension - all standard FC5 RPMs. The test page is simple - just a 
call to phpinfo().

Without the IMAP extension, the response time is almost immediate. With the 
IMAP extension it takes 2-3 seconds to respond - sometimes as much as 4 
secs.

Watching with 'top', I can see php-cgi is called immediately when the 
request is received. With the IMAP extension installed, after php-cgi 
starts, it then drops to the end of the 'top' list, consuming 0% CPU and 
2.0% memory. It remains there for the 2-3 second delay before coming into 
play again an running the script quickly. Without the IMAP extension, it 
just ends quickly having finished the request.

>From this, it is clear to me there is some major delay being introduced by 
the loading of the IMAP extension. Any ideas on how to resolve this?

Edward

use php as an apache module - thereby the startup delay is only noticed when
the webserver starts - this assumes that the problem is a startup problem ...

what you describe could be down to a dns configuration error - i.e. the imap 
extension
is trying to resolve some domainname and having a hard time of it.... I can't 
remember
the specifics of such issues but I know that the archives of this list will 
turn up more info
regarding dns config problems (that cause slow downs)

If you don't have to, don't run it as a cgi.

A /possible/ solution, and I don't even know if it's possible, is to compile two versions of the cgi; one with and one without. While I know that part is at least possible, I don't know if you can make your webserver *choose* which version of the cgi to run depending on the need.

Can the cgi in PHP5 dynamically load modules? dl() is available in PHP4, but I think they got rid of it in PHP5

No can do. I need to run my PHP scripts as different users and to interact
with the file system.

This sounds very plausible. It certainly seems as if the delay is due to a
timeout or similar. I'll see what I can find on this in the archives.

You can still do this running php as a module. Just enable suexec in Apache (and configure it safely of course).

Thanks for your suggestions John. At the moment, I do need to run it as a
CGI as I need different php.ini files for each virtual host.

I think there may well be some issues with DNS, as suggested by Jochem. My
configuration of DNS stuff locally is a bit patchy :) I'll investigate this
avenue first...

guess we have our work cut out for us, eh? we need to find a distinct, unarguable value for this product, and i believe that it's the fact that the link redistributes to amazon, whereas there is a greater value if they can sell the songs themselves.

problem is, what agreement dot hey have with amazon?

anyway, that's what i found.

PHP 4.4.4
MySQL 4.1.21-community-nt

I have a table in my database that has a Primary key on 2 fields (MyID and MyChange) and a field that indicates if there is a problem with the record (MyError)- I want to create a new table that only has unique MyIDs and where there is more than 1 I only want the record with the highest MyChange number. The table has about 50 fields so I have the following code:-

$myquery="CREATE TABLE mystats SELECT *, DISTINCT MyID FROM oldstats WHERE MyError IS NULL ORDER BY MyChange DESC ;";
$myresult = mysql_query($myquery);

but I am getting an MySQL error #1064.

Any ideas or suggestions as to where I am going wrong?

Alan

Is anyone aware of a PHP/MySQL app that would be used by telemarketing
staff to track calls, do follow-ups, allow scripting, etc.? We could
write something in house but we are pressed for time. I have been poking
around the web this morning, but have not found much.

Something like a CRM, the best ones cost some money like SugarCRM.
