RE: [PHP] Re: Red Hat 9, Apache 2, and PHP
Well said Rasmus, I have also been wondering why PHP with Apache2 wasn't considered a production enviroment, and if I should be heading that way but after readinng your post I feel a lot better, I have always been very happy with Apache1 and PHP if it aint broke then no need to fix I say. Regards, Joseph Blythe -Original Message- From: Rasmus Lerdorf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, 4 July 2003 4:18 PM To: Ow Mun Heng Cc: Mark Charette; [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Shena Delian O'Brien Subject: RE: [PHP] Re: Red Hat 9, Apache 2, and PHP Apache2 has a number of different modes it can work in. These modes are called MPM's. The default MPM is called Worker which is a multithreaded model. PHP, mod_perl, mod_python, and any other similar technology which links directly into the httpd processes will need to be perfectly threadsafe and reentrant to work effectively with a threaded Apache2 mpm. This is doable for the core of PHP, but there are literally hundreds of 3rd party libraries that can be linked into PHP and nobody whether or not these libraries are threadsafe. And figuring out if a specific library is threadsafe or not is non-trivial and it can very from one platform to another. And just to make it even harder, this stuff will appear to work fine until you put it under load or hit very specific race conditions which makes it nearly impossible to debug. So, since we can't tell you for sure that a threaded Apache2 mpm + PHP will work we do not suggest you use it for a production server. And since we can't know for sure, none of the main PHP developers use this combination for our own servers which compounds the problem because it is not receiving anywhere near the amount of realworld testing required to work out all the little issues above and beyond this threading unknown. There is an Apache2 mpm, called "prefork", which isn't threaded and basically makes Apache2 look like Apache1. But hey, we have a very good server already that looks like Apache1. In the end I don't see Apache2+PHP ever becoming a production platform with the current architecture. The only way I see it ever working is to pull PHP out of Apache and use a fastcgi approach. Or, with time, perhaps we will learn how to make sure a library is perfectly threadsafe and safe to use in a multithreaded Apache2. For now, I really see no reason not to simply use Apache1 if you want a robust, fast and stable web server. -Rasmus On Fri, 4 Jul 2003, Ow Mun Heng wrote: > Does anyone have any idea or could give me an idea why php & apache 2.0 is > not 'good' together? > > > > Cheers, > Mun Heng, Ow > H/M Engineering > Western Digital M'sia > DID : 03-7870 5168 > > > -Original Message- > From: Mark Charette [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Friday, July 04, 2003 9:02 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Shena Delian O'Brien > Subject: Re: [PHP] Re: Red Hat 9, Apache 2, and PHP > > > Apache 2.x.x IS a production quality server, just not with PHP.

Hmm, don't know much about raq3 but if it has GNU Make (ver 3.78.1 or newer) it should compile with any Unix C compiler. make setup CFG="--prefix=/usr/local/freetype2" make make install Hope this helps, from memory it is a little fiddly sometimes hard to get GD to see the freetype2 libs/includes, but if you get it compiled you should have no problems.

RE: [PHP] GD, PNG
Two things come to mind when compiling under redhat 6.x 1) Delete all headers and libs relating to gd in /usr/lib and /usr/include these are old and will cause conflicts. 2) Use --with-..-dir=.. Here is my successful configure command assuming you have successfully installed freetype2 and gd with frretype2 support. redhat comes with compatible zlib, png and jpeg libs ./configure \ --prefix=/usr/local/Zend \ --with-apxs=/usr/local/apache/bin/apxs \ --with-config-file-path=/usr/local/Zend/etc \ --with-mysql=../../mysql \ --with-gd=/usr/local/gd \ --with-freetype-dir=/usr/local/freetype2 \ --with-png-dir=/usr \ --with-jpeg-dir=/usr \ --with-zlib-dir=/usr \ --with-xml \ --with-pdf \ --enable-wddx \ --enable-sockets \ --enable-track-vars \ --disable-debug Hope this helps some as I too had major troubles geeting gd support under php seems to work really well now though.

After further investigation it seems that our IT manager who did the Linux install had not latched down the FTP tight enough and some guy from France (Yes we are on to you :)) got in and started to extract all his little hacking toys, one of which was a network sniffer which revealed all of my passwords as I continued to configure the server.

Let s say i have 5 pages on my site. I want some content to appear on each page so that when i want to change that content on all the pages i have only one place to modify. I used to write that content in a .txt file and having it read each time any of the 5 pages was loaded. So i had to modify the code only in the .txt file. It was working good but the code in the .txt file could not be PHP because it would not be processed when loaded by the other pages. There s probably a better way of doing it.

I don't know if this is the right way but what I would do is have a login page that does the md5 databse lookup, if it is successful writes the users name to a variable to the current session, maybe $verified_user Now every page tests for $verified_user you will know if they have logged in correctly, This approach seems to work very well for me, I don't know if there are any major security holes though? example: if ( isset($verified_user) ) { $user = $verified_user; } else { $user = "nobody"; } Hope this helps, it is pretty simple really.

[PHP] Finding if a number is in the range
hello, How do I find if a number is in a range example: 0200-0299 1000-2263 2264-2499 Lets say I choose 203 how would find which number range it was in? I was sort of thinking of using arrays of all the number ranges and using the in_array function to find which range the numbers are in, but this would take some time as there are around 3000+ numbers. I do however have all the numbers in a database already but they are not categorized in ranges. A better way?

I just got this working for use with the states of australia and its postcodes (around 3395 unique pcodes), but have found the result totally unusable due to the large amount of outputted javascript makes the page loading times totally unacceptable, around 40 seconds for 390k @ 56k, this is just for the outputted javascript, two select form objects , the skeleton html file and of course a bit of sever side processing. I would really appreciate a better solution as I really need this functionality, but believe such long waits on a eccomerce site is crazy, if any Australians are reading this and have done this kind of thing before could they please let me know how?

[PHP] OT States and Postcodes
Hey all, I have a signup form that a drop down list of country states, what I want to be able to do is when a user clicks his/her state the page will refresh and fill the below postcodes in with the approprite codes for the particular state, once a user has selected a postcode the page will refresh again and fill in the appropriate city/town, of course I will just default it to the first state in the list. I already have all the required data to do this for Australia. I have the page refresh working with a onChange event on the select tag, but I cannot get the list to stay on the value that has been selected before the page was refreshed. Also how will I pass this information to php so that I can get the selected state without posting the form? Has anyone done this before or can give me some clues on how to go about this, please just don't say 'javascript' as I have already searched alot of script archives but could only find jumpto menus etc. I would really only like to use javascript to refresh the page onChange, and do all the selected stuff with php if possible.

Hey all, Just looked through the changelog for 4.0.5 and was suprised to see that the socket functions had not been fixed, (set_nonblock does not seem to work under linux), I have retried my scripts under the new version but nothing seems to have changed, For the time being I am going back to the network and filesystem functions which do seem to be more reliable now.

It seems that HTTP_POST_VARS does not like being called from inside functions, as the above will work if not inside the function, I thought that HTTP_POST_VARS was in the global scope (as of php 4.0.3 track-vars is always on) , so it should have no problem being called from anywhere?
