This is only for use on local intranet!!
The problem is I want to install the software which comprises of 4 files
(setup.exe,setup.w02,setup.w03,setup.w04) from a link on the intrAnet.
It works fine on the local machine, but as soon as I try across the network,
it obviously wont find the second file to install. Ie. Access the link from
a remote machine, and install locally on that remote machine.
Is the best way to copy the files locally, or is there a better method?

Why would you want to do this? Blindly installing applications from web
links
is *a bad idea* and dialog boxes are there to help protect users. Heck from
the
way you asked your question I'm not even sure - are you the user or the
provider? Give us a little more than this to go on and we'll see if we

I would have to agree with the blurb below your message.
Unless those files are *huge*, there shouldn't be a problem copying them
locally and running them from there. If you're writing the .exe's, you may
even want to have a small one that gets downloaded, gets ran and it goes to
the web address and downloads the files it needs automatically. (depending
how fancy you want to get)
The other option is to make one big file that gets run and doesn't look for
other files. That'd do without the dependency.
The two factors to consider are these:
1) LAN speed. If the local intranet is all on the LAN, then any of those
options should be fine. 100baseT should be able to handle that. If some are
across the WAM, that'd be something to consider.
2) If you're only doing the install once, you might want to sacrifice speed
for reliability. Better to get it done right than to muck it up. But if this
will be a frequently ran process from the web location, speed may be
optimal.

Whenever I try to use the mail function, it returns me a value of

My php.ini settings are:

; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost
smtp_port = 25
Here's the function I'm using:
<?php
$r = mail("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "my subject", "line1")
;
var_dump($r);
?>
This always returns: bool(false)
What else do I need to setup in order for this to work???
I can send a regular email through using outlook express. any ideas?
Does Outlook express use a SMTP server on localhost? If not, you need to
adjust php.ini to match the SMTP server address used by Outlook express.

You may want to try HTDig. It works by crawling your site. So, it does
not have to run in the same server where the server is running.
If you want to provide a Web interface for setup, indexing, and
searching with PHP, you may want to use this ready to use class for that
purpose:

I did a real quick search and didn't find the answer quickly. If you
have some free time and don't mind doing things the "hard way", you
could try reading the $_ENV["TZ"] variable, recording it's value,
changing the setting, lather, rinse, repeat.
I'm sure there's a list somewhere though. It may be a standard code
list, in which case you might find the information one the following
page:

Good luck! Keep us posted!

Managed to find it !!!! It helps using just those right keywords after a
million goes....
http://www.steltor.com/notes/corptime-server/5_4/refmanual/refappd.htm this
is a list of all timezone notations. Thanks for your help. Thought about the
long way but it was not a pleasant thought as you may imagine, was hoping to
avoid at all costs. Hopefully this sorts it.
Thanks again
Kim

I am trying to upgrade my php installation, but cannot overwrite the
libmysql.dll fine - it seems to be in use
I have already stopped the iis admin service, anybody have any other
suggestions as to which process is using the file?

Worse case, reboot and try then and if that doesn't work, just boot into
safe mode - should be more than easy to kill it at that point.

Perhaps the MySQL service? Have you stopped that prior to attempting to
delete the dll?

Hi George,
You might want to setup database previleges to access db from the other
site(other site is the one where your files are stored). So instead of
localhost you need to give the ip address if the server where the db is hosted.
Hope u understand this.....

Hi,
I have a master database and a customer-facing website and a staff-facing
website - both connecting to the same database. I use Smarty and PEAR::DB
and PHP5.
I have no problem connecting from one site, but the other just generates
'could not open database' on the home page. This is happening on the log-in
page.
I've checked the code and its virtually identical, except for the different
tables being queried. One works, one doesn't.
I use a config file to ease development/deployment:
"Config.php"
if($_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']=='myserversite'){
$incloc="c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\egret\\includes\\";
$smartyloc="c:\\php\\Smarty\\";
$incloc="c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\egret\\includes\\";
$server_url="http://myserversite/egret/";;
} else {
$incloc="c:\\inetpub\\wwwroot\\egret\\includes\\";
$smartyloc="c:\\php\\";
$server_url="http://localhost/egret/";;
}
if((isset($_COOKIE['access'])&&$_COOKIE['access']=='')||(isset($_POST['acce
ss'])&&$_POST['access']=='')){
header("Location: ".$server_url."home.php");
}elseif(isset($_COOKIE['access'])&&$_COOKIE['access']!='') {
$access = $_COOKIE['access'];
}
$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = '';
$dbname = 'egret';
require_once( 'DB.php' );
$db =& DB::connect( "mysql://$dbuser:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/$dbname" );
?>
============================================================================
======================
"home.php"
include("includes/config.php");
require $smartyloc."Smarty.class.php";
$smarty = new Smarty;
$sql = "SELECT account_id, nickname FROM account";
$loginResult = $db->query($sql);
$recCount = $loginResult->numRows();
$i=0;
$results=array();
while ($loginRow = $loginResult->fetchRow()) {
$tmp = array(
'id' => $loginRow[0],
'hei'=> $loginRow[1]
);
$results[$i++] = $tmp;
}
$db->disconnect();
$smarty->assign('results', $results);
$smarty->display('home.tpl');
?>
======================================================================
Am I missing something obvious?
Cheers
