Ubuntu Php4-pgsql
I found some strange kind of mild install bug when installing Ubuntu 5.04 php4-pgsql module (the module that connects PHP4 to PostgreSQL). You may encounter the error:
Call to undefined function: pg_connect()
No amount of using Synaptic Package Manager would fix this for me. The solution was all at command line under 'root' account:
$ apt-get update
$ apt-get install php4-pgsql
$ /etc/init.d/postgresql restart
$ /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

PHP & Firebird On Ubuntu
(I'm running the Ubuntu Breezy Badger OS. I just installed the Firebird Classical Server from the Synaptic Package Manager, I can access my database from another machine with a program I wrote for that purpose or my database manager. I already had Apache2 with PHP5 running. Now I would like to access my firebird database from a PHP script, but as soon as I use ibase_connect() it gives: Fatal error: Call to undefined function ibase_connect() in /extern/webklant/includes/firebird.lib on line 94

Ubuntu Php5 Xml Support
I have been trying to use php5's xml support. My OS is Ubuntu 5.10 I am running apache2 with php5, no problems there. I installed the php5-xsl package but when I use any xsl related functions in my php, I get errors like: "Call to undefined function xslt_create();" I have played around with installing a bunch of other packages that might be remotely related, but my (limited) understanding of how the ubuntu package management system worked was that the dependancies were handled automatically. And yes, I did do[color=blue] >sudo apache2ctl restart[/color] to restart the apache server. I have also looked at /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini it contains the following line at the end of the file (I didn't add the line, it must have been done automatically) extension=xsl.so phpprint(); outputs the following: XSL enabled libxslt Version 1.1.15 libxslt compiled against libxml Version 2.6.20 EXSLT enabled libexslt Version 1.1.15

Locale Problem In Ubuntu 7.04
as a printable character, even though it should be. For instance, the following: PHP Code: setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'en_GB.utf8', 'en_GB.UTF-8'); $valid_string = ctype_print('£'); always returns false under Ubuntu 7.04, even though it correctly returns true on the Linux server that my web host uses, and in Windows. I've tried all manner of suggested fixes for locale problems, but I still cannot get PHP's ctype_print function to recognise the British pound symbol.

Strange Apache PHP Problem In Ubuntu Breezy
I used to have Apache and PHP4 working perfectly in Ubuntu Hoary Linux. I upgraded to Ubuntu Breezy Linux and I either get one of the following problems: "You don't have permission to access /testsite/index.php on this server." or, if I put a test.php in the root, and try to run it, I get a Firefox dialog that's sort of like, "What do you want to do with this file? View it in gedit (notepad)?" So then I uninstalled and reinstalled PHP4 along with libapache2-mod-php4 and apache2. This failed with the same result. So then I upgraded to PHP5 and reinstalled all this. Again, this failed with the same result. So then I went back to PHP4 again, rebooted, and tried again. Same result. So then I upgrade again to PHP5 again, rebooted, and tried again. Same result. What's the trick? How do I get my PHP to work properly through Apache again?

Hosting PHP And PGSQL DB

I am looking to build a small website with some images and dynamic content, such as a forum/message board and wondered what it would cost me for this? I used to use themooseisloose for hosting (one-off payment of £2.77 GBP), but have been alerted that have gone bust (at some point at the end of last year).

My Dad Wants PHP & MySQL Or PgSQL Hosting
To my surprise last month, my dad wanted to start dabbling in PHP and MySQL or pgSQL. I've been helping him out a bit. He's into athletic medicine and wants to have a website to help athletes and physical therapists improve performance. His current web hosting provider -- Earthlink -- doesn't give him anything but PHP 3.0.x. I want to get him at least on PHP 4.2.x (or better) along with either MySQL or PostgreSQL (pgSQL) support. I've done some googling on this, but I wanted real user opinions on cost, customer support, uptime, etc. At this point he's just looking at something that suits him somewhere between hobbyist and early sole proprietorship strength. Shared web hosting would suit him fine. Cost might be an issue for him initially. He's going to need some sort of simplistic web interface to be able to create databases, tables, and user accounts.

Pgsql Socket Timeout
I am encountering a problem with PHP5 and postgresql on a fedora core 3 box. I have a database driven report application written in PHP5 on a remote server. This application allows a user to submit a sql statement created by php based on user input parameters to the postgresql server. The application works great as long as the database server can return the result set within what appears to be 2 minutes. If the query takes longer than two minutes to execute the database server will eventually finish the work *but* no rows of data appear on the web page. I am thinking that the network socket connection between the php engine and the postgresql database server gets dropped after two minutes and that is way the results never arrive at the php page. If you think this might be a plausible explanation can you provide some assistance as to how I can go about adressing this problem?

MySQL And PGSQL And Hostname Question
i would like the thoughts of some folks with more experience than i have. i want to learn pgsql. i have some vb and msaccess experience and would like to learn how to use php and pgsql to develop some nice website / application functionality. however, i'm not sure the hurdle of relatively miniscule documentation and tutorials is worth the effort. i'm now thinking i should just use mysql to start and, if the need really arises, move over to pgsql. i'm busy with a lot of stuff right now - regular job, starting a business, developing a web site for the business, learning graphics programs, living life, blah, blah, blah. what is your opinion? go with the better documented db and develop more quickly but have to possibly switch over later when time may be more available and retain my hair or bite the bullet and go with pgsql? differing opinions are appreciated and encouraged so i can evaluate them based on my own set of values. also i am trying to set up localhost as my url so my hardcoded links work on my local win98 machine (actual webserve is linux). host.sam is as follows... 127.0.0.1 localhost www.easyautodeals.com my apache httpd.conf file shows the following for ServerName: ServerName www.easyautodeals.com however, when i type easyautodeals into my web browser, i go straight to my actual web server and not to my "localhost" location.

PGSQL 7.4.8 PHP 4.3.4 & Apache 2.0.49 Segmentation Fault With Client Certs
Having an issue that is specific to PHP compiled with PGSQL support with versions noted in subject line. I understand that there are many variables to consider here but believe I have narrowed down the Apache Client Cert failures to my PHP/PGSQL build. 1. Apache PHP without PGSQL works as expected using client certificates 2. Apache PHP with PGSQL works fine with standard SSL connections 3 Apache PHP with PGSQL fails with client certificates - no output other than Segmentation faults in the apache error logs as follows: [Wed Nov 30 23:26:57 2005] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/sbin/suexec2).... I also performed same tests on another instance of Apache/PHP/PGSQL which was version 2.0.54 of apache and PHP/PGSQL versions same as subject line with same exact results. Any ideas as to the source of this problem and suggestions for tests/fixes are greatly appreciated. There are no errors in any of the logs other than what I have included so it's very difficult to see what is wrong. All I know for sure is that I am able to reproduce the results on more than one machine.

Re Php4.3.4
Re previous problem Thanks to Alvaro, I solved the original problem on php version 4.3.4 However, I now have another one. I have an admin panel which requires a password to access it from a previous page. With the site live on an ISP server, everything is OK. On my local server running Apache and php 4.3.4, when the correct p/w is entered on the previous page, instead of going to the correct page (which consists of 2 frames, it simply reproduces the previous page in both frames. The script being used is: #-----REDIRECT AUTH USER---------- if($HTTP_SESSION_VARS['sessadmin']){ Header('Location:admin.index.php'); } #------AUTHENTICATE PASSWORD------- if($HTTP_POST_VARS['pass']){ if(crypt($HTTP_POST_VARS['pass'], $HTTP_POST_VARS['pass'])=='wiOgiun64DE9.'){ session_register('sessadmin'); $sessadmin='set' $done=1; } Because it works OK on an ISP, I assume it must be a setting in my local apache/php set up.

PHP3 And PHP4 Together
I'm a little new to the PHP thing. I want to try to setup my server to handle PHP3 and PHP4 requests easily. e.g. I have some scripts that are PHP3 and want to start learning PHP4. Instead of doing the simple (like anything I do is simple URL ) thing, I am attempting to set up apache to support MySQL, PHP3, PHP4, SSL, ColdFusion, SteelBlue, and maybe even Frontpage. Tell me I'm insane. Now I have read the "Soothingly Seamless" setup from the website, and had it mostly working, until some unforseen circumstances caused me to have to start over. I can set up Apache to use PHP4, MySQL, and SSL, but for those PHP3 scripts, I am a bit lost. Finally, my question. Is there a simple way (using the Sootingly Seamless page as a reference) to add PHP3 into the mix. Any help on this would be great!

PHP4 And SSL And Raven
1) - Has anyone had intermittent "Page Not Found" or "Page Cannot Be Displayed" errors when using PHP4 over a secure connection. It's not our programming because we get the error when using phpmyadmin over SSL. Phpmyadmin is an open source utility which was programmed by someone else. We are using a RaQ4 Cobalt box running Linux, hosted with Aspre (aspre.net). Our ISP says some other customers have complained about a similar problem but they have no solutions. 2)- We talked with another dedicated server provider (Adgrafix, adgrafix.com) and they said that we would have to install "Raven" to make PHP work over SSL. Has anyone heard of Raven? Is it necessary?

Debugging PHP4 With Dbg, Gdb, And Ddd
I want to create a debugging environment for PHP. I running Debian Woody and installed PHP4 from Debian's packaging system. I downloaded precompiled DBG from the webside and placed dbg.so in the same directory as mysql.so, Since MySQL works under PHP, I'm assuming I've got the right directory. I've updated php.ini per the DBG website. phpinfo() reports: 1. --disable-debug was part of the ./configure command. 2. ZEND_DEBUG=disabled, but the report does indicate that dbg is part of the Zend engine setup. 3. In the section on dbg, it reports dbg version 2.11.23, linked as a shared library; profiler compiled,enabled; debugger.enabled=on; etc. If I want to debug with dbg and gdb, do I have any options other than to recompile PHP omitting the "--disable-debug" switch? Once I do (or don't do) that, how does one hook gdb into dbg? How do most PHP developers who don't own a commercial IDE debug their programs?
