PhpMyAdmin Installation - Thorough Installation Guide.
I am trying to install phpMyAdmin-2.6.3-pl1 on my machine because I am familiar with working with it itself, but not installing it. I have Apache 2.0.54, php 4.4.0, mysql 4.1.14 running on a Win XP Home machine. Like I said, I've never installed phpMyAdmin before and I've looked at the documentation and I can kinda make out what it says, but I'd rather try to find a very thorough installation guide.

Php Web Frameworks
I've been trying to learn Ruby On Rails, because of it;s ease of use as a
web framwework. I am primarily a Java programmer, but the web Frameworks
there - Struts, Java Server Faces, are arcane as hell compared to Rails.
Additionally, Rails bakes Ajax code right into the output pages.

So it occurs to me -- surely there must be a php-based Web Framework that is
as easy to use as Rails, and incorporates Ajax into the output
automatically for you? If so, that would be the solution I want for the
future. ANyone aware of such a creature?

[Php Frameworks] Which One?
I've been developing lots of mysql-php websites with my own personalized standard. Something like the new MVC widely implemented and populated by RoR these days.

I've been reading a lot of Ruby on Rails thinking about migrating my usual development flattform. RoR has plenty of documentation and it does speed you up.

Then I came across CakePhp and CodeIgniter. CakePhp seems good, and a really good option in order to implement the MVC model...ˇBut I can' t find any documentation al all except for the howto in it's web!

CodeIgniter seems a little bit smaller than CakePhp. I've read all of it's documentation and seems nice to develop sites with hand made models, the only problem I might see is that the controller has to call the view from the index method. So I haven' t figured out how to implement a general website layout without creating a bunch of identical files.

For what I have seen, RoR, CakePhp and CodeIgniter are very powerful tools for developing a Web Site. And the last two would used a lot more if a nice documentation existed.

Frameworks
After 4 or so years developing applications, I'm starting to consider abandoning my "personal" way of doing things, and my personal script libraries, in favor of more convention-based approaches, like frameworks (I haven't yet found a content management system I can tolerate) .

I've spent the last week reading Code Ignitor's manual and my head is kind of reeling. I've also tried to plod into Cake PHP's manual and now my head is pounding. What php frameworks have you all found effective and why? For those with experience with the MVC approach, do you think that this really makes sense for web dev?

PHP Frameworks
I was trying to learn Ruby on Rails, but the main obstacle I found was that I now have to learn Ruby. It got me thinking that it would be great if there was something like it for PHP. I was searching about, and found CakePHP. I just wanted to get some opinions on it. Is it just like Ruby on Rails? Are there other php frameworks? What are your general thoughts on a framework for PHP?

Frameworks...
For years I've been designing all my web pages in Java, and have been
refusing pretty much all PHP contracts untill now. I'd like to start
taking a deeper look at PHP's potential, so here is my question:

For all my Java projects I've been using a layout framework called
SiteMesh. Similar in nature to Struts' own Tiles project.

I prefer by a huge margin to work with SiteMesh over the others due to
its extreme simplicity and efficiency!

Confused About Frameworks
I have just started to look at frameworks and it is quite mind boggling. i have been to the official PEAR site and have installed it. but what do i do now? I mean how do i use it?

If i understand it correctly are framwork simply already written code that we can use?
could someone post a simple example of a simple script that uses any framework so i can get any idea. i have and will continue to search in the meantime but i just thought if someone could give me some example script it would atleast make me familiarise with it,

ALSO can we install more than one framework on a server or will it conflict as i am also thinking of installing ZOOP.

Code Structure & Frameworks
I've been researching ways people structure their code using different files. E.g.

/functions/register.inc.php
/functions/login.inc.php
/includes/header.php
/includes/footer.php
index.php

It's pretty clear OOP is the way to go but I'm just confused how the easiest and most maintainable way of structuring the code and files is. During my research I came across frameworks and I have been looking at PHPCake and CodeIgnitor.

My questions are:
1. How do people structure their code? Could you give me an example or a tutorial please?

2. Would a large site which requires a large amount of code, such as a league script, be too much for a framework?

3. Which framework would work best with a league website? (e.g. best suiting included plugins)

What Is Current Status Of Frameworks?
In your opinion: what is current status of frameworks for PHP and which
one would you choose?

I am looking for an all-purpose, MVC-based framework I could learn and
use for all the applications I'll be working on in the future.
Something that is currently stable and documented enough to be used in a
commercial world (but it doesn't have to drive space shuttles yet;-)),
and has no limitations whatsoever on the view (presentation) side.
Templates support would be nice I think, although I've been never using
"real" templates with links to functions.

I was looking at Zend, CakePHP, Symfony and Seagull. Do you think any of
them (Zend?) has a chance to become a standard for PHP?

Professional Opinions On Development Frameworks
We are currently researching the ways in which the major web
development platforms differ and in addition to our work with the
Plat_Forms contest, we're now looking for actual professional
opinions.

If you have practical experience in the development of non-trivial web
applications with two or more web development languages then we would
like you to participate in a short survey. Three PHP teams competed in
this year's Plat_Forms contest, bit it would be good to hear from you
in the survey.

The questionnaire asks you about your experiences and opinions on two
of the web development languages you have used, and should take about
10-15 minutes to complete. To thank you for your participation, you
will be able to provide an email address and we will send you our
final report when we are finished compiling it.

Second, and most important, (in a PHP program that does work on another server) I am getting the following error from pages that use ' if ($submit) '.

Warning: Undefined variable: submit in includes/product.inc on line 20

PhpMyAdmin Installation

am not clear on whether there are any security risks by not explicitly
stating every field in config.default.php in my actual config.inc.php
and whether or not the program will know to default to variables I don't
state, even though everything seems to work fine without all of this
info. I could not find this info anywhere in the phpMyAdmin

Installation Debugging
1)I get startup error messages:
"Unable to load dynamic library c:phpphp_curl.dll - the specified
file cannot be found"
although the file is very much there at exactly that location
Not only for this file but for many extension files like php_mysql.dll,
php_oracle.dll, php_mssql.dll, php_exif.dll etc.

2)the extensions_dir setting is "c:php" without an ending backslash.

3)The php.ini file is residing at c:php

4)The php.ini file in c:windows has all extensions disabled so it does
not look as though that php.ini file is the source of the messages

5)There is a extension entry for php_win32api.dll which also gives a
not found error.
Is it the older version of php_win32std.dll, php_win32service.dll and
php_win32scheduler.dll files which are present but
their names are not there by default in the php.ini ?

************************************************** ************************************************
6)How do I debug PHP like you can debug Java in Eclipse or NetBeans and
C/C++ in MS Visual Studio - with breakpoints and stepping?

7)database access through odbc works.

8)How do I install PHP as both a CGI extension under Apache 2.0.5x and
as a module (php5apache2.dll with a LoadModule in httpd.conf) - Apd
which is a part of PEAR requires that php be installed as a CGI binary
- is apd good for interactive debugging?

Installation Tutorial
I'm having trouble with my windows PHP/MySQL. I have a few years experience with ColdFusion, so I'll do OK once I get the basics figured out. I ran the windows installer. I believe I have 4.3 installed. I've run through some of the kindergarten tutorials. But now I get to the tutorial on Creating a PHP login script and it's assuming I know all kinds of things like how to create a frigging batabase in the MySQL that I installed. It doesn't appear there's a user interface for MySQL built in, so I installed MyAdmin. But I can't seem to configure that.

This tutorial tells me to put in my username, pw, dbhost, and db name. I have no idea where to start!

Standalone PHP Installation
I have never installed PHP before. It's always been set up for me. I have
a client whose site is hosted as a virtual server. I'm trying to set up
ecom for him, but the mhash library is not installed. So I use fopen to
open a script on my website that hashes the variables. Obviously, this is
not ideal because if my site goes down his ecom will too. I asked the tech
people at his hosting company to set that up, but they said they don't do
custom compilations.

"As per compiling PHP with --with-mhash=[DIR] this is how that works: any
custom compilations, custom applications, etc. are up to the user to compile
and install. Use gcc/etc. to compile PHP with the options that you like.
The php.ini in /etc is available for your customization as well. If you
compile your own binary of PHP, you can place it where you like (or leave it
at the default) and get the paths updated to use it, or you can obviously
use it directly if necessary."

I was planning on compiling a new, minimalist version of PHP (with just
mhash) in a different directory, but I'm hesitant to do it in case I get
unexpected results (I don't want to take the rest of his site down). Can
anyone tell me if this sounds feasible? What kind of pitfalls can I expect?
And can anyone recommend a tutorial? Most of the tutorials I've found
assume you have root access and/or are compiling PHP/Apache together.

I was also wondering if it would be possible to just compile the mhash
library and add it to php.ini? That seems to be the simplest thing, though
I don't know if it would work...

Problem With A New Installation
After months of waiting for Redhat to come out with up to date rpms, I
decided to compile a working OpenSSL/ MySQL / PHP / httpd installation for
myself.

Installed the latest versions of mcrypt and mhash, followed by openssl and
mysql (version 4.0.13) - all from source.

Configured httpd with :

./configure --enable-so --enable-cgi --enable-vhost-alias --enable-suexec
--enable-info --enable-ssl --enable-cgid --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl

Then compiled PHP as :

./configure --with-mcrypt=/usr/local/lib/libmcrypt
--with-mhash=/usr/local/lib/libmhash/ --prefix=/usr/local/php
--with-apache2=../../apache/httpd-2.0.47 --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql
--with-config-file-path=/etc --with-config-file-scan-dir=/etc/php.d
--localstatedir=/var --mandir=/usr/share/man
--sysconfdir=/etc --infodir=/usr/local/php/share/info
--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs --enable-mbstring --with-gettext
--with-zlib --with-gd --enable-discard-path --enable-ftp --with-curl
--with-pear --with-jpeg-dir --with-png-dir
--enable-force-cgi-redirect --enable-debugger --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl/

Now after going through some configuration, I find that I cannot seem to
browse any SSL (https) links on a website that I was developing (which
worked perfectly with what I had earlier). I know this is probably not
enough info for you to help me, but since I did this for the first time, I
am not sure what is relevant to my problems and what is not.
