Apache Local Test Server On XP Pro
I'm hoping someone can help me with the following. My son is learning PHP and wants to install an apache test server on our XP pro home computer so he can test his code before uploading it to his hosting company. I don't have a problem with this in principle but I do have the following concerns: 1) We connect to the internet via AOL and my son's account is a "young person access" account. Will this be compromised by apache? 2) Will the installation of this apache server allow my son to breach Windows security at all (he is a restricted user at present)? 3) Any other possible security issues?

How Do I Set Up My Own Local Server On My Laptop To Test Website?
How do I set up my own local server on my laptop to test PHP website? I was given some advice by a pro ecommerce manager who said that it would be wise to test a php/ecommerce website onto my laptop first before uploading in case there are any problems which would be a lot easier to rectify locally rather than on the web host.

Test Mail() On Development Machine W/o Smtp Server
My development machine (WinXP, Apache 2.2.4) does not have an smtp server, and I don't really want to install one if I can help it. Does anyone know of a simple method of testing php scripts that employ mail() by simulating an smtp server and directing output to a text file or to an installed text editor. Right now I can modify the script to use something instead of mail(), then change it when I put into production, but I would really like to test the script in its production form w/o having to actually send email.

Date Function On Local Server To Remote Host
This little combo was giving me Sunday, April 30 on my local server and Thursday, April 1 on my remote host, and I can't for the life of me figure out why. I could swear it used to work. PHP Code: $today = gmmktime(0,0,0,date('m,d,Y',gmmktime())); echo gmdate('l, F j', $today); (The first function gives me a "midnight" time stamp, so all dates put into the db, and compared to it, are consistent). When I rewrote it thus, it worked fine on both hosts: PHP Code: $m = date('m',gmmktime()); $d = date('d',gmmktime()); $y = date('Y',gmmktime()); $today = gmmktime(0,0,0,$m,$d,$y); Any idea what the heck is going on?

Test Server To Live Server - Best Way Of Handling Different File Paths In Scripts?
I have taken over someone else's PHP code and am quite new to PHP. I made some changes and have implemented them to a live environment fine so far. However, I now want to setup a test environment. All the PHP scripts start with a few lines of: require_once "library file at specific location on server" and when I move them from the test location to live location I have to manually apply the changes to each script to reflect the different paths for each server. I was thinking of writing a small script that is contained within the same folder as any folder that contains scripts that actually calls another require for that server . E.g. Have script do_something.php which I am developing regularly. On live server it starts with require_once "/home/live/phplib/library.php"; On test server require_once "/home/test/phplib/library.php"; Currently I apply a manual change this (via global change or whatever) when moving from Test to Live However, I might just change all requires to: require_once "./require.php"; And then have a server specific version of require.php that contains the necessary requires for the particular server on which it resides. This way I can just change all the scripts to just require the require.php file in the same folder as itself. The actual PHP scripts where I do most of my updates need no changes whether on live or test servers. I just wanted to know if there was a better way of doing it then this. I know nothing about directives in PHP or if there was a way of determining the current server name and then calling different require commands appropriately.

Pages Loading From Test Server Then Online Server?
The one problem I am getting is that when I load up the website on my home server it loads in fine and then when I try to load another page it gets the page from the online website. It carries on with this alternating routine and I cannot find out why. Setup files appear unchanged and the only thing I have changed are some of the PHP files and after it started doing this strange thing, I copied the original files back to see if that changed anything but no difference was seen. I am not even sure where to look for this problem let alone put it right.

Php MySQL Works On Remote Server, Only Partially On Local Server
code to populate form select fields with data from a MySQL database, so a user can use those to sort/filter and view the 3,000 records. No inserts -- just selects; very simple. I originally set this up using URL-based query strings at http://stjuliana.org/school/ar/BUindex.php but since that only allowed sorting and not filtering, hence all 3k records load, I made a form verson at http://stjuliana.org/school/ar/index.php . Everything works just fine, however, there's still a lot of tweaking I want to do, such as splitting the form input and output into two pages (_blank), having a printable version, etc. To that end I just set up the latest builds of Apache, php and MySQL on my local Windows XP box, lest I blow my beer budget for the month on bandwidth overage. <g> I have a very simple page I used to test my localhost setup and everything's fine. I can connect to MySQL, create, insert and select from DBs, so I know my config is fine. All my other .php pages on this site work fine locally as well. The two abovementioned pages, however, are giving me fits when run locally... For the URL-query-string version, it loads up with the default view (=name_ns), which grabs all records and sorts by name and point asc. No matter which of the other sort 'views' I might choose, it still loads up all the records in that default sort. The server's holding on to something and I don't know how to clear it. The remote version correctly sorts based on the query string chosen. The form version is worse. It connects to the DB and populates the select boxes with the field data -- that part's fine. But no matter which submit button is selected, no data is retrieved. I get no error, but no data either. The form's action is set to $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] and I've tried both GET and POST -- no change. Since the exact same pages work on the remote server I know it has to be something on the local setup. But where do I look if there's no obvious error? This is probably something incredibly basic but I'm bleary-eyed from reading tutorials and forums all over the Internet and can't come up with anything.

Mail() Function - Using The Mail() Function To Send Emails To Members Of A Website
I am using the mail() function to send emails to members of a website. For some reason when I include words such as "free" or "winner" the mail does not send to any of the addresses - it just seems to disappear in space. I figured this out by trial and error - once I removed those words, it worked. I am running cPanel on the server and have no problem sending emails as long as they don't use those words. It seems to be blocking certain words - ones that I assume spammers would use.

Local Apache Web Server Revisited
I would like to replicate an apache server on my home computer. Conclusions of a previous thread on this topic: 1) Use the same operating system for your local apache server as your host uses. Any comments on just how important this is would be very welcome because i am thinking of cutting a corner and running my local apache server on windows XP. My prospective host uses Linux. 2) There are some nice "neat, easy, tidy" installs of apache (with PHP and MySQL) available. easyphp AppServ XAMPP Any comments on which one is best would be highly appreciated. As would further suggestions. 3) Things that I want to do which are a bit special: ) Use the PHP IMAP functions. These are a PHP extension. http://uk2.php.net/imap So, I will have to add this extension. How easy is this with these local apache servers? ) Does anyone know an IMAP email client that I can put on my local host apache server? courier-imap or CyrusIMAPD are apparantly possibilities. Can anyone point me to any reseources that would guide me through setting up these clients so that they are integrated with the apache web server - so that PHP code on the apache server could have access to emails in the IMAP email inbox. PHP code on the server can send emails from the IMAP email inbox.
