PHP :: Can Not Execute Exec Function In Php

Warning: Ftp_exec() [function.ftp-exec]: SITE EXEC Is An Unknown Extension
This is kind of a part II to a question a posted earlier about exec and shell_exec not working.

I'm trying to use ftp_exec to execute some simple command:

$conn_id = ftp_connect("$server") or die ("Cannot initiate connection to host");
ftp_login($conn_id, "$username", "$userpass") or die("Cannot login");
$command = 'cd..'
if (ftp_exec($conn_id, $command)) {
echo "$command executed successfully";
} else {
echo "could not execute $command";
}
ftp_close($conn_id);

I'm getting the following error:

Warning: ftp_exec() [function.ftp-exec]: SITE EXEC is an unknown extension in /home/urieilam/public_html/work/video/test1.1.php on line 21
could not execute cd..

Have tried other commands as well, get the same. Could this be a security issue or something to do with p Safe Mode? I don't know much about commands, shell, etc..

PHP(curl) Execute AJAX Function?
I'm experimenting with CURL. I'm trying to post data with CURL. Everything went fine until I found a form where the site submits data using AJAX technology.

The data is still in <input> tag, so I can "type" it there using CURL. However, I can't submit the data as it is executed via <a> tag with Javascript (AJAX). Could you guys help me with this? Is it possible for PHP to execute AJAX function(with parameters sending)? Is there any similar example somewhere?

Execute A Remote Function For Inserts In DB
Well I need to have a system do a remote insert on a database, every X action the system would do this insert. Since the implementation could change we decided to host the actual function that does the insert in a remote server, and the client system would fetch this function and use it.

My approach was to fetch the code into a variable, create the function there with create_function and then just use it, it does work except for the parameters passed to the new function are not being taken into account by the code in the function. So, there are inserts in the database, but with empty values. Code:

Ssh2 Mod And Exec Function
Something very strangne happens with the function ssh2_exec, i can't
read the stream answer after execution in the remote computer. I work
with apache 1.3.30 and php 4.3.10 , libssh 2.0.5 . the ssh2 module
looks to work correctly but sftp functions cause a big delay causing
server timeout and ssh2_exec can't read the output. Tryed many things
recommeded in php website and forums but always the first ssh2_exec
reading success and the following ones fail.

$stream=ssh2_exec($conn_id,'/usr/bin/ls ./public_html');

I tryed to read the output with:

stream_set_blocking( $stream, true );
$cmd=fread( $stream, 4096 );

after

while($line = fgets($stream)) {
$cmd .= $line;
}

and

while( !feof($stream) ) {
$cmd .= fgets($stream)
}

Nothing success to catch the output for the second execute order. In
the same process only the first exec could be read.

Exec() Function And Shell Scripts
I have a shell script written that basically grabs a selected .jpg or .png image file and wraps it as an .swf file for use in a dynamic Flash site. My question is this: What are the limitations of the exec() or system() commands? I can get them to work just fine with common linux commands(ie. ls -l, pwd, etc.), but it won't run these sort of commands:
./thisisascirptname
or
sh wrapper.sh

I get no results with these and yet when I perform the same operation on the command line by hand, it works just fine. This is the script I'm using to test it, by the way.

$lastline = exec("sh wrapper.sh", $all_output, $return_value);

print("Last Line: $lastline 
");

print("All Output: 
");
for($index = 0; $index < count($all_output); $index++)
{
print("$all_output[$index] 
");
}

print(" 
");

print("Return Value: $return_value 
");

The "ls" and other similar functions all return properly. I can't figure this out and it's driving me nuts. Any help?

PDOStatement Error : Call To A Member Function Execute() On A Non-object
I'm encountering a strange error with PDO. The server is FreeBSD 4.4,
PHP 5.1.2, mySQL 4.0.20 with 4.1.18 client libs.

I have the following code (usernames and passwords changed to protected
the innocent ^_^)

<?
$db_dsn = "mysql:host=dbHost;dbname=dbName";
$db_username = "username";
$db_password = "password";
$db = new PDO($db_dsn, $db_username, $db_password);
$db->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
$statement = $db->prepare("SELECT * FROM myTable");
$statement->execute();
?>

I get an error on the last line "Fatal error: Call to a member function
execute() on a non-object"

What's strange is this code works fine on my development servers, and
used to work fine on this server up until a few days ago. I've
restarted the server several times, recompiled php with the following
configure script

../configure --with-pdo-mysql=/usr/local/mysql --with-curl=/usr/local
--enable-versioning --enable-memory-limit --with-layout=GNU
--enable-ctype --enable-overload --enable-posix --enable-session
--enable-tokenizer --with-expat-dir=/usr/local --with-imap=/usr/local
--with-jpeg-dir=/usr/local --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
--with-pcre-regex=yes --with-png-dir=/usr/local --with-zlib-dir=/usr
--with-zlib=yes --with-regex=php --enable-cli
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/www/bin/apxs --prefix=/usr/local
i386--freebsd4.4 --enable-spl --with-pdo --enable-pdo
--with-gd=/usr/local --disable-all

This is the only script that gets run so there's definitely no problems
with open cursors (I've read the posts about
PDOStatement::closeCursor()).

The only thing I can think of is that the 4.1.18 mySQL client libs wont
work with PDO and mySQL 4.0.20. I've tested with old-school mysql
functions (mysql_connect) and it works fine, its only PDO that breaks.

Using Exec Function To Get A .exe Return Status Gives CGI Error
I'm trying to make a web page to work. It worked before so it has to
be something related with the configuration.
My problem is a call to a compiled executable (made for me) that
returns 1 or 0. It does not print any text to the standard ouput so
the error is strange:
CGI Error: The script can .. because of the HTTP headers (I have it in
spanish so the message is not the exact one).

As supposed, the HTTP headers are needed only if the executable prints
out a text to the browser but it's not the case. And (I repeat) It
worked as it before. The machine had to be formatted and the guy in
charge of that is not with me anymore.

PHP Slow To Execute
I have some PHP pages at.. which is exhibiting
some strange slowness. It is hosted by secureserver.net (bad?).

When I time how long it takes to load the main web page from the
server
it averages 7 seconds, but often goes to 15.

When I store the main page on my hard drive, the load time is 1
second.

I've tried removing PHP code that might slow things down
but that only brings the load time down to 5.5 seconds best case.

I have other PHP pages on the same server that seem to execute
faster. The key difference between the slow main page and the faster
pages is the faster pages do not use "include" to execute code in
other
PHP files.

However with out "include" and the modularity it affords, my PHP code
would be harder to maintain. What to do?
