Re: [PHP-DB] Backups, best practices

2001-09-07 Thread Tom Carter


 you can get command line zip/compression packages for windows, although
for
 *some* reason, as far as i know, not a command line version of winzip -
the
 big one!

err.. please correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't pkzip exactly that? or more
exactly, winzip is a windows interface to it? it certainly uses the same
compression

 anywho, all of those should be able to be scheduled using the at command
 from DOS (good old DOS... the closest a microsoft weenie will come to
heaven

nope - you're right, i forgot about pkzip, but i was just saying that it's
pretty strange that winzip is the biggest compression program used for
windoze machines and they haven't released their own command-line version...
last i heard it was still in the piplelines.

pkzip is made by a different company i think

 Are you running out of logons?  You should only need the client

 Make sure you have ocilogoff in your PHP page when you're done.
 
 Even better (for performance reasons) create a session.  Then ONLY the first
 time that any of your pages load, run your ocilogon.  After that just reuse
 the logon.  From then on, just make a new statement everytime you need to
 query the database.
 
 Lastly, when I used PHP/Apache/Linux to talk to Oracle/NT4, I was getting
 stray defunct oracle processes hanging around on my Linux box.  The effect
 was that pages would work from one client PC, but not from another.  I think
 everytime I created a connection, it created the process.  The only way I
 could find to get around that was to recompile PHP with --enable-sigchild.
 This is PHP's own signal handler and it will clean up the stray oracle
 processes.
 
 Good luck,

 Hi,
 
 I have a page that retrieves info from an Oracle database and which works
 fine when I view it. When I switch to another PC with the same OS/browser

 We have the client libs installed but it's only on one or two machines that

you donÄt have oracle-oci support in you php! please

[PHP-DB] Checkboxes with mySQL

2001-09-07 Thread Cilfa

I have a database with articles from which I can make a selection of which
articles to show. This selection is made by a form with checkboxes.
In the mysql table is a field called pr. If there's a 1 in this field,
the article should be shown for print, if there's a 0, it shouldn't.
 
In the code I generate a form with all the titles and checkboxes. The
checkbox values are the id's from the titles.
When I click the button, I want to see my selection.
   
The problem is this: What sql query can be used to proces the information
from the checkboxes? At the moment I use in order to change the values in
the database according to the checkbox selections:

$query = mysql_query(UPDATE articles SET pr='1' WHERE id='$p[id]');

But it does nothing! How can I insert multiple values (from the checkbox
array) at one time in a database?

RE: [PHP-DB] Checkboxes with mySQL

2001-09-07 Thread Rick Emery

You have to check each checkbox value in you selection criteria.  Somthing
like:

$query = UPDATE articles SET pr=1 WHERE 0;
# assume $nbr is size of array $p
for($i=0; $i$nbr;$i++)
{
if( isset($p[$i]) ) { $query .= || id=$p[$i] ;
}

This will construct a query that looks like:  UPDATE articles SET pr=1 WHERE
0 || id=1 || id=3 || id=4

The 0 in the WHERE clause is just a place holder; it saves a little
coding.

Hope this helps

Re: [PHP-DB] PHP linux interbase Apache

  Interbase is installed in /opt/interbase. I don't use --with-apxs.

  It seems to me I only need to compile PHP with the
  --with-interbase=/opt/interbase to create the file interbase.so.But I guess
  I'm wrong
  Thank you for your help

 It all depends on how you install PHP (assuming you're using Apache)

 --with-apache : static PHP compiled into apache (needs to cmpile Apache)
 --with-apxs:  dynamic apache module (no need to compile Apache)
 without any of them : compiled as a standalone cgi executable

 As for compiling with interbase:
 --with-interbase=/opt/interbase  won't create the interbase.so file, but
 rather compile PHP with interbase support built into it.

 If you want the shared interbase module (.so) you should compile with:

 --with-interbase=shared,/opt/interbase

 and modify your php.ini

 I suggest you read the relevant pages in the manual. Find them at

 http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.unix.php
 http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.configure.php

   How and where did you intsall interbase - it's been a while so I forget.
   I think the rpm version installs itself in /opt/interbase (you can check
   with rpm -ql interbase). If that is the case then you need to configure
   with
  
   ./configure --with-apxs=/path/to/apxs --with-interbase=/opt/interbase

 if you compile with --with-apache, you'll have to recompile apache

 Note: you'll need Apache development stuff (Depends on your distro).

 Any way after running make install make sure you've restarted Apache.

[PHP-DB] DB design question (so maybe a little OT)

2001-09-07 Thread Alexander Deruwe

Hey all,

I have 4 database tables, that each describe some sort of 'person' 
(transporting company, truck-driver, ..) and have almost exactly the same 
fields.
Is this the best way of storing this, or does this make more sense:

One table, with all the same fields + 1 extra, noting the type of person 
(that could come from yet another table).

Any suggestions, 'cause this really bothers me. :)

Correct, and another table person_type perhaps, with an id and a
description, add another field to your person table with a foreign key
to something in the person_type table.

I'm thinking that you should get all the common fields among the different
types of people:

F. Name, L. Name, Address, CC Number

And then create a different table containing additional information that
only pertains to certain types of people. Then join them using an id.
