[PHP] Question about PHP-CGI, mysqld and sudden spiking average load readings on Linux Virtual Dedicated Server running CentOS 6.3
I have noticed when doing a top via SSH on my GoDaddy virtual dedicated server that every time a user logs in in the COMMAND column I see the PHP-CGI process start to run, followed by mysqld. Often when these two processes run I start to see a spike in average load, and sometimes this spike spins out of control to the point that when trying to log on to my Moodle 2.3.2 LMS I get an 500 Internal Server Error from Apache. Now, what I'd like to know given the fact that I have only 2GBytes of RAM and am sharing a processor with other users :-( is if there is any way to make sure my PHP 5.3.3 is properly configured. I am given, for example, a choice between CGI, fastCGI and Apache in my Plesk panel, and I am not quite sure how to optimize things for my environment. I went to the Moodle.org site to try and see what's the right setting, but it's not clear if the persons writing there have a different setup or not. Unfortunately, it's impossible to get specs on my VDS's processor from the fine folks at GoDaddy, and perhaps there is just a simple processor power issue going on here, but I only have 30 students and only a handful going in simultaneously. And at times my average load can move from .08 to 1.5+ and all the way up to 2+ within the space of a few seconds. I should point out that at one point it was discovered by GoDaddy technicial people that a user was running a rogue process that overtaxing resources. But perhaps I also need to tweak my installation despite this incident. Any help here would be appreciated.
[PHP] Question about PHP FPM and shared memory
Hello list, I am trying to start PHP FPM with 2600 worker pools with ondemand processmanager. Each for one domain. The problem is now, that the php-fpm quits with: ERROR: pid 10937, fpm_shm_alloc(), line 28: unable to allocate 1040 bytes in shared memory: Cannot allocate memory: Cannot allocate memory (12) The server is 32bit :( and has 12GB of ram.

[PHP] Question About PHP Includes
Hi,
I help maintain a Movable Type install for a non-profit organization. Things
have worked well with the site but the other day the home page went blank
and the rest of the pages lost all of their formatting. I've done some
debugging and it seems that some include statements are no longer working.
Here is the code:
?php
ini_set(open_basedir,ini_get(include_path).:/some/absolute/path/to/httpdocs);
ini_set(include_path,ini_get(include_path).:/some/absolute/path/to/httpdocs/Includes);
$title = 'Some Non-Profit';
@include('header.inc');
$rawevents= implode(\n,
file('//some/absolute/path/to/httpdocs/Includes/home_include-events'));
$events = stripmtpara($rawevents);
?
!-- * MAIN CONTENT SECTION ** --
?php
@include('homeheader.inc');
?
This code has worked forever so I'm not sure what's up. Based on my
debugging I've found that:
1. The lines starting with $rawevents and $events, when commented out, allow
the page to be rendered, but without the header information.
2. If I change the absolute paths in the ini_set statements to be relative
paths I get my header information.
I'm stumped...any ideas? I'm running PHP 5.2.5.
Thanks!
Jon

Too bad, you get a reply anyway.
That's EXACTLY the same thing I keep saying! In fact,
Gringo is probably the most offensive, and even that doesn't phase
me. Not only are none of the terms for whites offensive, none of them
are funny words. I'll admit, I like the sound of some racial slurs
and derogatory terms; NOT because of the hateful epithet and
intonation, but because the word itself is funny.
And I'm a firm believer that a word only carries as much power as
you allow it. Of course, there's still a time and place for
everything, and while I wouldn't ever scream NR at a black man, I
can't help but laugh when I hear the word.

It seems to me that we have many in U.S. society who still very much want to be thought of as being oppressed. Take this Black History Month business for example, I don't recall ever having anyone reminding me to celebrate American Indian Heritage Month. Or is it because I don't live near a casino? Seems a bit unfair, especially since I was never personally an oppressor of Native Americans or Blacks. But I still have to hear about certain celebrations, every year, for an entire month. I say drop all the silly heritage-related theme months completely and simply celebrate humanity not having blown itself up in the past year. I don't need a reason to drink but that'd be one I could use all the same.

We are called by all sorts of slang (i.e., cracker, white-bread, hunkie, and so on), but we don't have something equivalent to the n-word/ No reply is needed -- just a comment. Thanks for pointing out the *who* instead of *that* :), since I didn't realized it until now. That's alright, many English writers get that wrong. You see, when the object is not a person, then the use of that is proper. However, if you are referring to a person, then who is proper. I see a similar thing with people using then when they mean than, but that may be a Brit thing -- like driving on the wrong side of the street or eating with their fork in the wrong hand -- you know one of those cultural things that went haywire. :-) Cheers, tedd They (anyone non-white) call us howlies in Hawaii I believe and it's not meant as a compliment. Regardless, most whites don't take any of these that negatively because we don't view ourselves as the oppressed and don't view the others as oppressors shouting offensive slang at us. Cinco de Mayo is big here in Texas and I held a Gringo de Mayo party last year on the 5th of May. It was a big hit! -Shawn Well, I don't know why some people gives so much importance to words. But I think it's related to what someone said once (don't know who): The raw description of evil scandalizes people much more than the perpetration of it I have some friends who are called *gringo* and some others who are called *niger*. What's more, here in Argentina, many times we call ourselves *niger* (The Spanish word is *negro*) as you would say *buddy* (like *hey niger, let's play soccer tomorrow*), independently of skin color or social status. We also use the same word (*niger*) in a slighting way, referring to ignorant people or people with bad habits (among other things). But we rarely use *gringo* in a slighting way. More often than not we call *gringa* to a hot blonde woman. Now, in Mexico, a *gringo* would mean an US citizen most of the time, and it would be used in a pejorative way most of the time as well. I think you'd all benefit of reading http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gringo: In South America, the word is not pejorative. In some countries it may be used to refer to any foreigner who does not speak Spanish, but in other countries it is used just or especially to refer to U.S. citizens; it may also be used to describe a blond or brunette white native person with soft facial features and light colored eyes. For instance, it is a popular nickname Now, why I said *gringos*? In my case gringos meant both US citizens and Caucasian people (specifically German people), and I didn't mean it in any pejorative way. My company's president (who started calling me Rob in the first place) is a native German, now living in Florida for several years. Same for her husband, and same for many business partners or clients or friends of her. And I have a very nice relationship with them, and they all call me Rob. If I wrote an email signing it *Regards, Andrés*, they wouldn't know who I am (lol). However, I must admit that I used the term *gringo* in the Mexican sense at least once in my life, but just for the fun of it (back in 2002 when I entered English chat rooms to perfection my English and learn a bit of the slang... I was such a dumbass, lol). IMHO, more important than words is the mouth that pronounces them and the ears that hear them, my father-in-law calls me *Mr Magoo* because of my glasses, and I call him *Viejo violeta* (something similar to *pervert*) and we get along very well (despite I've stolen her beloved daughter :D).

Hi!
Hi!!!
I have asked myself a question.
And what answer did you get?
After I saw, that SAP will no more
release future Versions of their open source Database MaxDB under the
GPL License, I have asked myself either if this could happen with PHP.
The quick answer would be: no, nay, never.
Who owns PHP? Is it Zend Technologies or the PHP Group itself? Who is
the PHP Group and what makes the PHP Group?
The beauty of open source: we all own it. Through permission
granted by the PHP license, you can do almost anything you want with
the PHP source. Including what's called forking: which, like a fork
in the road, means to take the project in a slightly different
direction.
Who guaranties that future Versions of PHP stays open source and are
being released under the Terms of the General Public Licenses?
PHP was never GPL'd code. Check the license there are some
pretty big differences. To answer your question, though, we all, as a
community, ensure that PHP remains open source, in one form or
another.
Can future Versions from one day to the other no more being released
under the GPL, only under a closed source license? Let us say, PHP would
be distributed for several architectures only in binary forms and the
PECL modules stay open source.
Once again, it's not GPL, but I know what you're inferring.
There's nothing to stop Zend or anyone else in the world from offering
a closed source PHP, but you can bet your boxers (preferably clean
and unworn) that it won't receive the same accolades or acceptance by
the masses as the free and open source option. It may be
better-accepted by high-spending commercial interests, but it won't
exist on such a high majority of servers worldwide as it does now.
These questions are for me very importand according to an commercial
product which will be planed, designed, written and sold commercially.
We are pendling between Ruby, Python and PHP5. Only the point written
is unclear.
For all intents and purposes, I implore you: fear not; for PHP is,
was, and ever shall be!
The project isn't going anywhere any time in the foreseeable
future, Tamer. PHP as an open source language is indefinite.
And on another note, if you're worried about a version you already
have installed becoming commercialized, don't. It's virtually
impossible.

Hey Daniel!
Hey, Tamer!
Thanks for your feedback.
My pleasure. However, please keep all replies on-list as the
discussion continues, because this also helps people who are
attempting to find the information on the web locate it in the
archives.
Yes, meanwhile I figuered out (how lazy I am) that PHP is published through
it's own license.
Yes, sir. And don't worry I'm lazy as well. Just ask Pierre
Joye on the Internals list (re: Gmail quoting)! ;-P
Well, then you made me secure with your words. I was thinking allmost to
switch to Python (which is really a great language)
I think in future I make my comparisons between PHP5 and Python and make
a performance test. Would hardly interist me.
But shitt Python is really great.
Python is a good language. I like it a lot for command line
programming, but it's not as prolific and well-accepted as PHP is when
considering a web language.
But I am that hardcoded PHP, that I am not able to easy switch to any
other language. Specially, that PHP in Version 5 gives me that OOP
Aspects and full freedom I want.
Yes, PHP5 went from being a crap-tastic piece of frustration when
it was a release candidate to being one of the absolute best
web-usable languages and versions (discounting CGI access, for those
of you lawyers out there!) to exist to date, in my opinion. There's
tremendous extensibility with very little overhead, and virtually zero
financial layout.
But take your fingers away from Ruby. How can somebody come to the
ultimatively stupid idea to create for every small thing an object.
No joke like VB.NET. I can't see the sense in having to
define something in three lines (Ruby) when I can just use a built-in
construct to do the same in one line (PHP).
God thanks that I am able to write static methods, attributes in PHP5.
SPL in PHP5 is great. Boah
Yeah. In English, we'd say boo-yaa! ;-P
Hope it stay open source for alll and ever all times.
With your help and that of others continuing the spirit of the
project, it will. Just make sure that, after you've taken enough from
the PHP community (and the open source community as a whole) to get
yourself going, you give back to help others learn as well. That's
how the heart beats in open source.
with kind regards from Cairo
And a great big HELLO, WORLD! to Egypt from Scranton,
Pennsylvania (United States). :-D

Rob, Are you sure you can fork the *current* PHP version??? The hardened PHP project still complains with the PHP license I think. I don't think the current PHP I meant *complies* not *complains* sorry (lol, I really need that cup of coffee now) Yes you can fork it. The hardened PHP project complains that they're not allowed to use PHP in the name hence they use Suhosin. They mostly complain because they asked for permission and were denied and yet looking around you see things like PHPBB and other stuff including PHP in the name. The difference however is that PHPBB uses PHP as it's language but does not actually modify or distribute the PHP source itself. Specifically permission to fork is granted by this phrase: Redistribution and use in source and binary forms, with or without modification, is permitted provided that the following conditions are met: And then there's a bunch of things you must adhere to which are fairly run of the mill.

Only the point written is unclear. for any answer Thank you very much Tamer Higazi First off, PHP is not GPL-ed. Check this http://www.php.net/license/ Now, if all you plan to do is to *write PHP code you can sell*, I'd say you rest assured. Nothing like MaxDB issue will ever happen to PHP (though things like this could happen for PECL extensions who depend on third-party libraries I think). So, unless you are planning to distribute the Zend Scripting Engine ALONE as part of a commercial product (say you want to use PHP to script against a desktop application, like VBA works for MS Word), you are also safe about Zend. Keep in mind also, that the worst problem with closed source software is lack of support if the company goes out of business. I believe that will never happen to PHP. It can happen to some extensions, but only those that rely on third-party functionality (say, the mysql extension), so the problem is not PHP itself (and you'll have the same problem for every other language). As this is not an authoritative answer, you'd better off sending an email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] explaining what you are planning to do and your concerns on the future of PHP.

[PHP] Question for PHP Arrays
Hi,
I'm making a PHP Installer that is customizable by using plugins, I haven't
used PHP for a while and which I have forgotten some things about PHP *eek*..
Anyway, I want to know how to add things to an array. Like this:
$foobar = array()
$foobar['rar']['miaw']
Would that output come out (for the array) as:
array(
'rar' = 'miaw'
)
Please correct me if wrong. Also I need to ask one more question, would this
work:
$foobar = array()
function addToArray($int, $value) {
$foobar[$int][$value]
}
And with a function call addToArray(1, meow) output as the array looking
like:
array(
'1' = 'meow'
)

No, it would create a multi-dimensional array that contains nothing.
You want:
$foobar['rar'] = 'miaw';
Please correct me if wrong. Also I need to ask one more question,

No (because of the mistake commented on above). However another issue
at play here is scope. $foobar the array will not be visible to the
function addToArray unless you make it global.

[PHP] Locking in PHP (Question for PHP Gurus)
Hi All, I am using PHP on Apache/Linux with mod_php4. I need to implement a lazy cache for some resource which should be updated say every 1 hour in a way that the first person who arrives after an hour will be updating the cache. As you can imagine, I need to implement a write lock in this case, the idea is: 1. Retrieve the cached data from database (it is cached because generating it is expensive) 2: If (now() - cache update date) 1 hour, try to get a lock on some resource 3.a: If lock is acquired, regenerate the cache, update it in the db, unlock the resource, return 3.b: If lock can not be acquired, just display the version retrieved from cache in step 1 and return This will be slightly different in case of mysql (i.e. lock is blocking in mysql), but I guess you get the idea. In this case, there are two types of locks I can use it looks like: i) File locking: You can try to lock a file in non-blocking mode ii) Use mysql lock/unlock table to manage the locking mechanism, i.e. create some dummy file. I would prefer File Locking since it support non-blocking locks and would definitely be faster than mysql, but I see 2 problems with this: 1. What happens if the php code that locked this file (probably the PHP thread in Apache, if mod4php supports threading) throws an error or dies! Will it be automatically unlocked? Or since I am using mod_php4 and the thread is somehow alive, the lock will be there for a long time? 2. The following warning from php manual: On some operating systems flock() is implemented at the process level. When using a multithreaded server API like ISAPI you may not be able to rely on flock() to protect files against other PHP scripts running in parallel threads of the same server instance! What do you guys recommend? Thanks! -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

You may have 2 requests both trying to create the new cache entry, but that is much cleaner than having to deal with locking.

Hello, on 04/06/2005 10:56 PM Cabbar Duzayak said the following: I am using PHP on Apache/Linux with mod_php4.

In this case, there are two types of locks I can use it looks like: i) File locking: You can try to lock a file in non-blocking mode ii) Use mysql lock/unlock table to manage the locking mechanism, i.e. create some dummy file. I use this all the time with PHP under Apache 1.x for caching all sorts of data coming from the database: content, user profiles, sessions, everything. It works wonders. The speedup is enormous because accessing a file on disk is much faster than executing a SQL query even when the database server caches queries. flock() is not slow at all. That is a myth. You just should pay attention that you must do everything the same way. There can only be one process locking the file exclusively for writing but there can be many processes accessing the file in shared mode. As long as you are not updating a file literally on every second, the flock contention time is neglectable. To simplify generic file caching using flock to prevent that concurrent accesses corrupt a cache file being updated, I use this class store arbitrary data in cache files. It assures that the cache files are updated only when there is one process trying write them. This very same site on which the class is available uses the class to cache everything for several years. Currently it is holding more than 80,000 cache files that occupy over 400 MB. The good thing about caching practically everything is that you can avoid even establishing database connections once the cache files are upto date. This makes your site handle access surges much better, as the excess of Web server processes that are created does not lead to new database connections. http://www.phpclasses.org/filecache To do what you want, just set the expiry time of your cache files to 3600 seconds. The class also supports preemptive cache invalidations, meaning, it can safely invalidate a cache file in order to force that it needs to be regenerated next time it is accessed. Maybe you do not need this, but I use that feature all the time to force the cache for a page or something else to be redone after the site updates the database information from which the cached data was taken. For instance, you are caching the content for an article page. If that article is updated, you invalidate the cache, so next time the article page is accessed the cached content is always refreshed. I would prefer File Locking since it support non-blocking locks and would definitely be faster than mysql, but I see 2 problems with this: 1. What happens if the php code that locked this file (probably the PHP thread in Apache, if mod4php supports threading) throws an error or dies! Will it be automatically unlocked? Or since I am using mod_php4 and the thread is somehow alive, the lock will be there for a long time? AFAIK, PHP implicitly closes opened files on exit and so any outstanding file locks are released. 2. The following warning from php manual: On some operating systems flock() is implemented at the process level. When using a multithreaded server API like ISAPI you may not be able to rely on flock() to protect files against other PHP scripts running in parallel threads of the same server instance! This warning is mute because most people is not running PHP with multi-thread mode servers (read MS IIS or Apache 2). The problem is that several PHP extensions are not reentrant and so they can't run reliably in concurrent threads. So, since you are most likely using PHP in non-multithreaded server (Apache 1.x or something else using PHP CGI executable) never mind what the manual says about flock(). -- Regards, Manuel Lemos PHP Classes - Free ready to use OOP components written in PHP http://www.phpclasses.org/ PHP Reviews - Reviews of PHP books and other products http://www.phpclasses.org/reviews/ Metastorage - Data object relational mapping layer generator http://www.meta-language.net/metastorage.html -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

The file actually prints: mysql MySQL Support enabled Active Persistent Links 0 Active Links0 Client API version 3.23.32 MYSQL_INCLUDE MYSQL_LFLAGS MYSQL_LIBS Does this mean it really supports it? or am I just not understanding something? It even says zend server is in use, yet I never installed zend. The version of php is 4.0.5 on apache webserver on linux How is this possible? Just curious Thanks
[PHP] Question about PHP and images
I wanted to call a PHP-Skript through a img-Tag and PHP sends a image back. How can I do that?

[PHP] question about PHP manual and ImageCopyMerge() function
For the ImageCopyMerge() function in the PHP manual (http://php.net/manual/en/function.imagecopymerge.php) it states at the top that (PHP 4 = 4.0.1) is required in order to use it. However, farther down the page, it says Note: This function was added in PHP 4.0.6 Am I mis-reading something? Can anyone tell me which is the correct version of PHP in which this function was added?

[PHP] question about php sessions
Hi =) Is it possible to track a user session across multiple domains? We have several related web sites and want to enable a user to login through one site and end up logged in to them all. I tested and it didn't work and I'm guessing it's a limitation of cookies. As in, a cookie created under one domain isn't available to another. Is this right or is there a way to accomplish what I'm talking about?

[PHP] question about PHP use
Hi, I've been looking at using PHP but am unsure if it will do what I want. What first attracted me to PHP is the claim that I can embed PHP code within my html file and have it build dynamic content. Perhaps someone on the list can confirm that ic can do as follows: I have a web page that contains various graphics and text. At the bottom of the page, I have a table of one row by two columns. Using PHP and MySQL (I already know that PHP can access MySQL databases), I want to read data from a table and dynamically grow my table (add several rows, each with two columns). So I am guessing that I will be inserting PHP code and HTML code intertwined? IS PHP my ticket for accomplishing the above?

Re: [PHP] question about PHP use
yes, that is what PHP does best (displaying dynamic content from a database). - Original Message - From: Don [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: php list [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, February 07, 2001 2:08 PM Subject: [PHP] question about PHP use Hi, I've been looking at using PHP but am unsure if it will do what I want.

ASP, JSP and ColdFusion can do this as well, but being a PHP-lover I would recommend PHP. Hell, I know _why_ I love PHP...
