PHP - Trying To Connect To Db Part 2

Hello there,
I'm using a Mac (10.5. and installed MAMP for PHP and MYSQL
I trying to build a blog. I just setup a database in phpmyadmin.

I created a php and start coding, everything works just fine, but when
I tried to connect to the mysql it gives me a blank page

I inserted this code
Code: [Select]
<?php
session_start();

    $connect = mysql_connect('localhost','root', 'root'); or die(mysql_error());
$db = mysql_select_db('blog',$connect);
$session_name = $_SESSION['uid'];


?>
but then the whole page turns to be blank page , but when I excluded this, it works just fine. I don't get it cause my database/phpmyadmin connected just fine.

Any help is much appreciated. Been trying to figure this out for hours.

Hey,

I've had this problem for a couple days now, and haven't been able to work it out.

I'm trying to connect to the Gamesurge IRC using PHP - though the code I am using times out and can't connect.

I thought it was my code, however I have searched the web for working codes and they all *seem* to do the same basic thing as mine.

So if anyone has any ideas as to why I am getting a timeout, I would appreciate it.

The code I'm using.

<?php
 
error_reporting(E_ERROR);
 
$cfg = array(
        "server" => "irc.gamesurge.net",
        "channel" => "#wiremod",
        "port" => 6667,
        "name" => "thetree PHP"
);
 
echo "Connecting to " . $cfg["server"] . " on port " . $cfg["port"] . "<br/>";
$socket = fsockopen($cfg["server"], $cfg["port"], $errno, $errstr, 5);
 
if (!$socket) {
        echo("Error[$errno]: $errstr...<br/>");
}
else {
        echo "Socket connection successful..<br/>";
}
 
fclose($socket);
 
?>

Ok this code doesn't look wrong but i cant figure out whats going on?
Code: (connect.php) [Select]
<?php
//connect.php
$server = 'localhost';
$username = 'admin';
$password = 'pass';
$database = 'gms';
 
if(!mysql_connect($server, $username,  $password))
{
  exit('Error: could not establish database connection');
}
if(!mysql_select_db($database)
{
  exit('Error: could not select the database');
}
?>


ERROR
Code: [Select]
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '{' in /home/adee67/public_html/forum/connect.php on line 13

Hi,

I have a script which uses a connect file but I am struggling to get files in other folders to read and for the "$loggedIn = checkLogin();" code to work.

If I connect to the database within the same script it works straight away.

If I change my password then I have to change every file but otherwise I cannot include the connect file as I have to link to it locally.

So if the connect file is in:

www.domain.co.uk/php/login/connect.php

then

www.domain.co.uk/php/login/index.php -- this works

www.domain.co.uk/php/logout.php -- this doesn't regardless of how I link to the connect file.

hello, if i have an entry in a table called company on database cc, would the following be the propper code?  im getting a blank page.

Code: [Select]
<?php

$dbhost = 'localhost';
$dbuser = 'root';
$dbpass = 'mike';

$conn = mysql_connect($dbhost, $dbuser, $dbpass) or die                      ('Error connecting to 

mysql');

$dbname = 'cc';
mysql_select_db($dbname);



$query  = "SELECT * FROM company";
$result = mysql_query($query);


while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC))
{
    echo "Name :{$row['compant']} <br>" .
         "Subject : {$row['address']} <br>" . 

}

I'm trying to add Facebook connect to my new app, but I'm not sure where to really start.  I looked through a lot of the facebook documentation, but I haven't been able to find any really good implementation suggestions.  I just want basic functionality.

HI,

I'm running the next script from my local host and the production server, and Im getting different outputs. Anyone knows why am I getting that error from my localhost?

    <?php
    $host = 'ssl://mail.companyname.org';
    $port = 993;
    $error = 0;
    $errorString = "";
    
    var_dump(fsockopen($host, $port, $error, $errorString, 30));
    var_dump($errorString);
    var_dump($error);

Local host output:

> PHP Warning:  fsockopen(): SSL operation failed with code 1. OpenSSL
> Error messages: error:1416F086:SSL
> routines:tls_process_server_certificate:certificate verify failed in

Hello all,
This is my first post in here, so go easy.
I recently transferred my account from my local ISP to GoDaddy. And now my search criteria is not working. I am getting the follow error message on the page of my search box, instead of the graphics itself:
Could not connect to MySQL:Can't connect to local MySQL server through socket '/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock' (2)

I thought maybe this would be a simple error when I found out that GoDaddy does not use the "localhost" connect string. So I switched it to the local IP for GoDaddy still to no avail. I am lost after that. My PHP skills are limited. I was taught by a very advanced user who uses shortcuts and different strings self made for his ease. So looking online for solutions for the script was very hard(to me at least), because the lines of code do not match common scripts online.

Is this a simple solution?
Does the:

global $dbc;
@dbConnect();

function work with GoDaddy? Because I have seen maybe different ways to connect to a DB with PHP.
Here's the script I am using to connect and extract results from the DB. Any and all help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have a simple form and I run my script without any errors. I click my btn and I would like to see my echo errors but no errors show up when I have no value in textboxes. I have tried if(isset($_Post["submit"])) and if($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "post") What I think is nether of there ifs are becoming valid on my btn click.

I think there is something wrong with this line of code. Where it says 'locat host' im not too sure about that because im not connecting to a local host, so what can i put in there instead?i think that is the problem.
Code: [Select]
$connection=mysql_connect (localhost, $username, $password);

This is the error I get:
Code: [Select]
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Access denied for user 'a2221438'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in /home/a2221438/public_html/map.php on line 44
