We had a problem like this on our site for a while. It turned out that 
soneone had put an empty image tag on the site which was causing the 
browser to go to the same page *again*. Check to make sure that all of 
your images have the src attribute filled out.

[PHP-DB] Oracle Client Libraries for Linux

2004-06-14 Thread Peter Beckman
Folks --

I've been trying to figure out where the Oracle client libraries live, but
I'm confused as hell.

I've read the PHP-DB archives, and everyone keeps talking about installing
the client libraries (libclntsh et al), and how that's all you need for
Oracle 9i PHP support.  Great -- but which options presented horribly by
Oracle do I download?

On this page:

http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/oracle9i/index.html

It lists:

I'm running Linux RH Enterprise 3 on this server, and the Oracle box is
remote.  My original assumption is to download the second link, 9iR2 for
Linux.  However, this is 1.5GB worth of a download for three friggin
drivers.  What the hell?

All of the clients are for Windows, Even the 9.0.1 release is 1.1GB.

What do I need to download from Oracle to get the drivers for PHP?  Please
don't just say "go to otn.oracle.com and download the client" because I've
been there and cannot for the life of me find it.

I don't have the ability to display X Windows remotely, so whatever
solution has got to be command line.  I'm at my wits end!

I've installed Instant Client, so I have the 10g libraries:

[PHP-DB] Delete Subquery

2004-06-14 Thread Brock Jimmy D Contr 74 MDSS/SGSI
I've been able to figure how to use a delete subquery to delete all rows, but how do I 
use a delete subquery to delete only one row?

 

I have two tables: users and roles with the following fields:

 

Users:

userid

roleid

 

Roles:

roleid

 

I want to be able to delete a rowid from the roles table, but only if the roleid does 
not exist in the users table.

 

thanks

[PHP-DB] Re: Mysql not receiving the data

2004-06-14 Thread Rui Cunha
take a look at the sql insert sintaxe...
it's supposed to be: INSERT INTO table VALUES (val1,val2,...,valn);
all string and date values go between ' '...numeric values don't need 
them...
here's an example: INSERT INTO table VALUES ('abc',500,'12-12-2003'); 

if your table has 5 fields but you don't want to insert values for them all 
then you must specify the fields that you want to insert: 

INSERT INTO table (field1,field2) VALUES (val1,val2); 

hope this helps.

Subject: Re: [PHP-DB] Mysql not receiving the data 

Online I could see everything, and the pages gave the appearance of 
working, however when I went into the DB using PHPMYADMIN to check the 
status of the new data entered, all I found was blank rows ( for the 
new data since the rebuild, all the old data was there) There were the 
correct number of new rows for the amount of records that I had 
entered, which tells me (unless I am nistaken) that the PHP is talking 
to the DB, and is atleast sending a insert command, but the rest of 
the data is not getting in. -
Without seeing any code whatsoever and since this worked before but no
longer works on a new install, I can only assume that your code was written
with the assumption that register_globals was turned on and it's not on in
your current configuration. 

If that is the case, see the PHP manual or search the Web for the solution
($_POST, $_GET, etc.).

Hi Gawie,

you have to use the timestamp column type for auto-updates. Set the default
to NULL and it will be set/updated when you insert or update a record.

See here:
http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/TIMESTAMP_pre-4.1.html

Hope this helps.
