If you know what the local file name and path are supposed to be, then you
should be able to use file_exists() for that task.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] checking file is mounted at the end of a url
Hi,
I'm building a site where among other things, the user (librarian) can see
if a file has been mounted on a local webserver for students to download. I
could provide a link so they can see if the file (pdf) can be downloaded,
but I'd rather just say 'yes' or 'no'.
This requires the page doing some sort of url test and reporting yes/no
depending on the code being sent back. I found something called linkchecker
at Hotscripts.com but when the file doesn't exist, it tries to download
itself instead.
The user will be accessing my server but will be checking something at their
location. I'm sure this must be possible - can anyone point me in the right
direction?
Cheers
George

Mike,
Thanks, but it's not a local file. I host my service, but the file being
cked is (not) mounted on the users' own university website. So I thnk its
more a case or url-checking.
I've tested file_exists using the url and that doesn't work.
Cheers
George

In that case, try using fopen()
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/function.fopen.php
You should be able to check the file handle and check for success or failure
and simply close it after the check is complete.
Just have to have allow_url_fopen enabled in PHP to do so.

Thanks for moving me in the right direction. fopen() will test the
existence of a file at the end of a url.

Hello wondering if anyone has an answer to a problem that has risen during
the testing phase of an application migration.
Recently we have migrated php code from a Linux Server with a My SQL
database to php code on MS .NET platform with a MS SQL 7.0 database.
When we send email from the migrated code on our MS.Net platform with a
SQL server database the sent time is always 11 hours in the past.
Currently our SQL server is on GMT - 6hours
Linux machine time is set as follows
date command show = CDT local time
eta/sysconfig with a cat clock command
- Americas/Chicago time zone
- UTC = False
- ARC = False
Basically trying to find out if anyone has encountered a problem such as
this before or if anyone knows a fix for this problem

I have a Win2K box running php-4.3.0 and would like to install the php-4.3.0
to 4.3.1 patch. I've downloaded the "php-4.3.0-to-4.3.1.patch" file from
http://www.php.net, but can't find a thing on how to install it on a Windows
platform.
The closest thing I could find on news group posts is instructions to
patch < rfc1867.c.diff-4.1.x
Which fails at the patch command.
The first few lines of the "php-4.3.0-to-4.3.1.patch" file are:

+++ php-4.3.1/NEWS Sun Feb 16 16:48:27 2003
@@ -1,5 +1,8 @@
PHP 4
...
Which don't give me a clue as to what to do.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

This patch is for the source code. You need to download the binary
distribution and replace your old files with the new. While you are doing
that you should download a newer version php-4.3.9 has been released and
so has php-5.0.2.

You don't need to copy any of the files from PHP-GTK to any system
directory. Just keep all files in the same directory. You can still ahe
your script files in another directory though.
The z in zlib does not relate to zend in any form or way. zlib is a
library for compression and decompression of files.

I am getting the following errors when I execute a php script.
Warning: mysql_fetch_array(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource
Warning: mysql_fetch_row(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource
Warning: mysql_num_rows(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL result
resource
What do I need to make this work? I am new to PHP. I read something about
mysql.class.php somewhere. Do I need that somewhere? Do I put an include
in the main script? Where does mysql.class.php go directory-wise?
I am sure I am not giving enough information and may not be explaining it
good enough. My apologies. Again, I am new at this.
I appreciate any help. Thank you in advance.
Mike
