You didn't specify but I guess all your databases are on the same server.
When accessing multiple databases on the same server using multiple
instances of a class, you need to make multiple connections to the server.
By default PHP creates only ONE connection to a server and the database you
select is linked to the connection. So instantiating another instance will
use the previous established connection and change the database.
To force a new connection, you need to use mysql_connect() instead of
mysql_pconnect(). When using mysql_connect() you can specify:
$this->dbh = @mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass, true);
[quote from="PHP manual"]
resource mysql_connect ( [string server [, string username [, string
password [, bool new_link [, int client_flags ] )
[/quote]
Which will force a new connection. By default PHP will use a connection
which have already been established.
Take care when doing this as each time you instantiate a class a new
connection to the database will be created adding additional load on your
database which can cause a denial of service.
I normally store a list of connections to servers and databases in a
variable which can be accessed by the script. Every time I instantiate a new
instance of my database class I first make sure that a connection to that
server and database does not already exist. If it does exist then I call
mysql_connect() without the true for new_link otherwise I call
mysql_connect() with the true for new_link.
The downside of this is that you do not have persistent connections which
last beyond the end of the script.
Hope it helps

[PHP] Database Class Help
Hi,
We have a database class that we want to use to connect to multiple
databases at the same time using different variables.
Here is part of the db class:
class db {
var $dbh = "";
var $q = "";
function db($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass, $db_name) {
$this->dbh = @mysql_pconnect($db_host, $db_user, $db_pass);
$this->select_db($db_name);
}
function select_db($db) {
if ([EMAIL PROTECTED]($db, $this->dbh)) {
die("Cannot select database because:\n" .
mysql_error() . "");
}
}
function num_rows($_q) {
if (!$this->q = mysql_query($_q, $this->dbh)) {
die("Invalid query \"" . $_q . "\"\n" .
mysql_error() . "");
} else {
return mysql_num_rows($this->q);
}
@mysql_free_result($this->q);
}
}
In my php file I say something like
num_rows('select * from table1');
Echo $db_2->num_rows('select * from table2');
?>
Now that happens is when I try and do the query for db1, I get told that
db2.table1 doesn't exist. I can swop anything around and it doesn't seem to
work for one of the classes.
Does anyone have any idea as to why this is happening?
Thanks a lot,
Ian

Except this passes the "message" in the URL. Is there a way to pass

I have a class that creates a new socket, however on my client's shared

You could also replace:
if (!preg_match('/([0-9]*)(\\.0*)?/', $_POST['x'])
with:
if(!is_numeric($_POST['x']) || $_POST['x'] < 0)
This would ensure that your value only contains numbers, and that it is
greater than zero. Then when you put it into the $_CLEAN array, you can
type-cast it as an int (as in the other script) and that would convert
any doubles to an integer value. If you wanted you could also round,
ceil, or floor the value.

I have hundreds of CAD drawing files in binary format. Using the strpos() function I can query embedded ASCII info from the CAD files.

I already use a class to perform this task. The problem is if a member
closes the browser windows and then tries to login again before the
specified timeout.
Does Apache have a function like asp Session_OnStart, Session_OnEnd ?
I am using IIS and PHP 5.0.4
Thanks in advance.

[PHP] include_once behaves differently in mod_php4 vs php5-cgi
Hello!
There's a website with a following structure
index.php in the site's DocumentRoot directory (for this thread, let's
call it /www)
functions.php, init.php and db_connect.php in /www/library
index.php includes line:
include_once('library/functions.php');
functions.php includes lines:
include_once('db_connect.php');
include_once('init.php');
The website was running fine under PHP 4.4.0 installed as Apache module.
Then we tried it with PHP 5.0.5 installed as CGI. We got the following
errors:
PHP Warning: main() : open_basedir restriction in effect.
File(/db_connect.php) is not within the allowed path(s):
(/www:/usr/local/www/phpMyAdmin:/var/tmp/php) in
/www/library/functions.php on line 2
PHP Warning: main(db_connect.php) : failed to open stream: Operation
not permitted in /www/library/functions.php on line 2
PHP Warning: main() : Failed opening 'db_connect.php' for inclusion
(include_path='.:') in /www/library/functions.php on line 2
...and similar 3 messages about init.php.
Note that first warning is about '/db_connect.php', not 'db_connect.php'
or './db_connect.php'. /www/library should be inside the open_basedir,
since it is under /www, which is listed in open_basedir in php.ini. It
looks like something is changed in PHP's behaviour between versions 4
and 5 or is differently handled in CGI vs Apache SAPI, but I find it
unlikely since I can find no documentation regarding this. It's more
likely that I am overlooking something trivial, but I can't figure out
what it is.
I tried to change the include lines to
include_once('./db_connect.php');
include_once('./init.php');
but this made no difference.
However, when I specify the full path:
include_once('/www/library/db_connect.php');
include_once('/www/library/init.php');
then the errors disappear and 'everything' seems to work.
Also, I never get any errors about the
include_once('library/funcions.php');
line in index.php
I'm puzzled...

Which reminds me... make sure your using include() where appropriate,
and include_once() where appropriate. Obviously include_once() should
ALWAYS be used when the source contains function or class definitions.

Re: [PHP] php related segmentation fault with Apache 2.0.55
Hi again,
I tried compiling and installing php 4.4.1 with Apache 2.0.54, out of
curiosity (because php 4.3.10 and Apache 2.0.54 didn't give me any
problems).
With this combination, I still get a segmentation fault with at least
one php script. The gdb backtrace is:
#0 0xb7e207c1 in php_handler (r=0xda16ca8)

0
ctx = (php_struct *) 0xda08818
conf = Variable "conf" is not available.
I think it is worth reiterating that this is only happening with one
script, to our knowledge. The actual file being served is a .shtml
file which includes a php script. I looked at the php script, and it
looks like a pretty straightforward database access script, using
mysql. Is there anything I should look for in that script?
Thanks,

Re: [PHP] Schroedinger's Bug - may require exorcism...
What to do next? I'd check to see if your page is being inadvertantly called
twice (I've seen this happen when people used frames.. or like someone else
mentioned, doing a double include() or sometimes redirecting back to itself via
header())... anything that could possibly re-initiate the page, check into.
Failing that, do it old school... just inserted die() statements to break
execution at various points and see where the probably first starts occuring
and focus in that area. Crude but it works. At least helps narrow down where
the problem could be.
It doesn't do something silly like include() itself inside a conditional
somewhere does it?
You might also echo/var_dump/print_r/whatever some of your key variables
(especially input variables like $_GET/$_POST/etc and variables used in
conditionals) and try to isolate what combination causes your problem. Since
it doesn't do it all the time, I'd guess you could have something like:
$x = 4;
if ($x > 1) {
include('someinclude.inc');
}
if ($x < 5) {
include('someinclude.inc');
}
Where 'someinclude.inc' contains your double declarations.
Next point... check your logic around your include()/require()s and such.
Maybe you have a condition where something is falling into multiple categories.
The logic puzzle is as much about writing good logic as untangling possibly
flawed logic.
If all else fails, trace through your code by hand... interpret it in your head
like the computer would.. like by line.. maybe you'll see where something is
ambiguous and under certain conditions creates a fail.
Let us know what you find.. kind of curious myself.
-TG
= = = Original message = = =
So... I have this script (being called in a perfectly typical way by
PHP 4.4.1 through mod_php in Apache 2.0.55) which sometimes runs
perfectly, and sometimes chooses, totally haphazardly, to seemingly
run itself twice, which of course causes it to die with a fatal error
after it tries to redefine some functions.
As mysterious as that is, it turns out it must be something
altogether more sinister. I tried putting die() at the end of the
script, on the assumption that it was for some reason executing
twice, yet behold: the problem is still present, and the PHP error
log still complains about constants and functions being redefined!
The problem, I therefore thought, cannot be that the script is being
run twice. (In retrospect, this was the most likely possibility,
because the page doesn't actually output anything if it dies with
this error.) So for debugging, I added a bit that logs one message to
a file immediately before the die() at the end of the file, and a
different message after the die(). The die() seems to be working
normally, in that it only logs the first message...
But wait a second! WTF? If the PHP error log is to be believed, then
the script should be dying with a fatal error before it even *gets*
to that point in the script, isn't it?
And the greater WTF is the fact that, as I mentioned above, every
time the page is requested, it unpredictably either does this or
works flawlessly. Oh my. How do I even *begin* to debug something
like this?
Thanks for any help.

Re: [PHP] checkboxes
Excellent response. You should always be expecting certain data. So if no checkboxes are checked, your code should realize that since it was expecting the data and none was submitted. The "lazy way" is much easier to code, but it is actually fairly efficient. You are only hitting the database twice, once of the delete and once for the bulk insert.

Here is what I have done using MySQL:
** Create a table:
mysql> CREATE TABLE `tablename` (
-> `id` tinyint(3) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
-> `name` char(20) default '0',
-> PRIMARY KEY (`id`)
-> );
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.06 sec)
** Then insert some data into the table:
mysql> INSERT INTO tablename (id, name) VALUES (NULL, '\'Albert');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> INSERT INTO tablename (id, name) VALUES (NULL, '\'Piet');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> INSERT INTO tablename (id, name) VALUES (NULL, '\'Koos');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> INSERT INTO tablename (id, name) VALUES (NULL, 'Jan');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
mysql> INSERT INTO tablename (id, name) VALUES (NULL, 'Gert');
Query OK, 1 row affected (0.00 sec)
** Then retrieve all the record starting with an apostrophe ('):
mysql> SELECT * FROM tablename WHERE name LIKE '\'%';
++-+
| id | name|
++-+
| 1 | 'Albert |
| 2 | 'Piet |
| 3 | 'Koos |
++-+
3 rows in set (0.00 sec)
Hope it helps
Albert

First of all this is not automatic. You can do this with a foreach loop.

Re: [PHP] Howto search in SQL for a specific character?
$sql = "SELECT nameOfPedigree FROM tbpedigrees WHERE nameOfPedigree like '\'%' "; Maybe this could work... -- "El único error real es aquel en el que no hemos aprendido nada."
