PHP - Shared Hosting And Security

Hi,   I would like to ask if someone knows a trick to know if the script is running on a shared hosting or a vps or a dedicated server.   Regards

Hi,   I'm newbie. My requirement is to open network shared folder from PHP. This works fine in IE but not in Chrome. Can anyone please help me ....   Thanks

I implemented google's reCAPTCHA V2 on http:// on the remote apache shared server and it worked 100%. I then changed the protocol to my shared server SSL using the same PHP script as the non-SSL script. The older version of reCaptcha had an SSL 'false' to 'true' SSL parameter, whereas I can't find one for V2. I had to use htaccess to redirect the example.com to the shared SSL server https://serverid.net/example/ which works perfectly without recCAPTCHA. I incorporated reCAPTCHA V2 and the error message where the reCAPTCHA image should be shows "ERROR: Invalid domain for site key".

Hi all i was wondering if someone knows a way to make sure an image which is uploaded isn't infected by a virus.
I have read about avclam, but if your on a shared host your mostly not allowed to add own software.
Isn't there maybe a php trick to resize the image which would magically remove a virus?
If anyone knows a nice way or tricks to limit the virus breating space to a certain folder please let me know.

Hello,  I am new.  I have created a very simple webpage that has content the changes when a link is clicked.  The site works perfectly on my "localhost".  I am running Apache 2.2 and PHP 5.3 on localhost.  When I upload to my GoDaddy shared hosting, ( I beleive Apahe 1.3 and PHP 5.2) my "index.php" displays fine on load. However, when any of the links are clicked the content area where it is supposed to change disapeears. Here is a sample of the code that I am using:


// These are the links in the index.php
html code...
<li><a href="index.php?id='home'" id="home" name="home">Home</a></li>
<li><a href="index.php?id='form'" id="form" name="form">Register</a></li>
<?php
include("form1.php");
                getPage();
                ?>

html....
Then on the form1.php page is the following code...

function getPage()
{
    $linkID = $_GET['id'];
    if ($linkID == NULL)
    {
        changeBool("'home'");
    }
    else
    changeBool($linkID);
}

//end example

The function "changeBool()" has a switch structure that is determined by the $_GET[] var.
I beleive this has something to do with the php.ini settings, possibly the apache settings...any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Hello, we got a site running in to different servers, the other one is a sub domain that will  be use as internal pages and the other one is external. As of that I need to pass session to see if a user details.   Is there a another secure way to pass session data to other server without storing on the database?

Hi;

I had an email from my hosting company which said that my account was hacked and one script in images folder is trying to send thousands of spams(file name : "/public_html/images/sm5vy7.php"). they blocked my account and asked me to check if there is any script or code that may cause this problem.
The only server side page I had was a contact.php file that has mail() function in it. the code is like this;

"if( isset($_POST['submit'])) {
$name=$_POST['name'];
$comment=$_POST['comment'];
$email=$_POST['email'];
$phone=$_POST['phone'];
$to = "sample@gmail.com";
$subject = "sample";
$message = "sample";
$from = "$email";
$headers = "Content-type:text;charset=utf-8" . "\r\n";
$headers .= "From: $from" . "\r\n";
mail($to,$subject,$message,$headers);
}"

My question is "can the code I used cause any security problem that someone be able to create a php file in my images folder or someone has accessed my account?"

Thank you in advance
I'm really in a big trouble

Hello guys, I have created a mini image hosting website. Well, I have successfully coded the file upload, including security to allow certain image extensions and size as a beginner in PHP.

However, only one thing remains is the image link. You can view the website on this address http://mini-image-hosting.99k.org/ where it is currently hosting on a free web hosting account with a free sub-domain.

Right now, only the image can be uploaded and is being stored in a directory. Nevertheless, I want that when the person uploads an image, he gets also the link, for example: http://mini-image-hosting.99k.org/xxx.jpg something like that.

Can you help me for this?

Code: [Select]
<div id="recent">
<p class="title"><?php echo "Staff Picks"; ?></p>
<div id="gallery">
<?php $i = 0; while($album = mysql_fetch_row($recent)): ?>
<?php if(++$i%4 == 1): ?><div><?php endif; ?>
<?php $image = mysql_fetch_row(mysql_query('SELECT `id`, `extension` FROM `image` WHERE `album_id`='.$album[0].' ORDER BY `id` DESC LIMIT 0,1')); ?>
<a href="<?php echo WEB; ?>a/<?php echo alphaID($album[0]); ?>">
<img src="<?php echo WEB; ?>small/<?php echo alphaID($image[0]); ?>.<?php echo $image[1]; ?>" alt=""/>
</a>
<?php if($i%4 == 0): ?></div><?php endif; ?>
<?php endwhile; ?>
<?php if($i%4 != 0): ?></div><?php endif; ?>
</div>
I have this code, which on my image hosting website, displays a grid of the latest albums of images that users upload. I really have no experience in Php.

I to change this code to simply display a grid of albums that i choose, not the latest. Like 'staff picks' instead of 'most recent'.


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I'm running about 50 domains on a private host that's going out of business, so I need to move providers soon. The Amazon or Google cloud platforms are intriguing. Does anyone have any experience using either for website hosting?   My current solution is a Plesk management interface. So, I'm hoping to install the same wherever I go (because migrating 50 domains manually ...)

I launched my new website about a month ago.  I switched from one web host to another due to poor hosting performance.  Now I'm running into the same issue again -- poor web hosting performance.   My first web host was Hostgator.  My current web host is AT&T.  I hate the thought of switching to a different web host every month trying to find one that will reliably host my site.  Does anyone here have a reliable web host that they use and would recommend?   My question is relative since what is reliable for a simple web site, may not be reliable for one that is more complex.  For this reason, I can't simply trust web host reviews.   My website isn't overly complicated, but it's more complex than just basic HTML.  It uses a lot of PHP, as well as a MySQL database that only has two small tables.  The website uploads and downloads small text files regularly.  It also sends E-mail attatchments quite often.   Because I just launched, my website isn't getting a ton of traffic -- about 10 users per day.  However, I'm beginning to run into the same problem as before.  My web host's server is starting to show itself as being unreliable.  As with my first web host, it seems as if it may be due to overcrowding on the shared server.   Do any of you run any moderately complex websites?  If so, who do you use for a reliable web host?   I've considered setting up my own server with a LAMP configuration and hosting the site myself.  However, I don't know a lot about Linux or Apache, and so would like to avoid this.  But because the computer would only be hosting my own website, and no one else's, I have to believe that a LAMP setup would be more reliable than a shared server that is overcrowded.   A reliable web host is really what I'm looking for.  But I don't want to keep going down the road of trial and error.  If anyone uses a web host that reliably supports their moderately-complex website, then I would love to hear from you.  I'm sick of my site failing due to server issues.  Like the Duracel commercial says, "It just has to work!"   Please forgive me if you feel that my post doesn't correctly fit the forum category.  I tried to figure out which category best fits this topic, but none of them seemed to be perfectly suitable.   Thank you for your time, as well as for any suggestions.

Hi:

I have a site hosted (shared) on 1and1.com hosting, and they seem to have a file upload limit of 2MB.

Is there a way to overwrite this? I have been trying a .htaccess and php.ini file, but can't get it to work.

The folder with the upload form is called "admin," in the ROOT of the site.

Been trying (in both the ROOT and the "admin" folder):
php.ini
Code: [Select]
; Maximum size of POST data that PHP will accept.
post_max_size = 8M

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 8M

ini_set('memory_limit','128M');

.htaccess (in both the ROOT and the "admin" folder):
Code: [Select]
php_value memory_limit 24M

That is all the code in each file - am I missing some code?

Can this be done?

Thank you.
