PHP - Periodic Mail Fail. Ideas For Failure Looping?
We're running a foreclosure bid service that sends a lot of email status notifications. (ie bid received, high number, outbid, sale results etc)
Most days it works great. However, occasionally, there are a handful of emails that people claim they never got. I have a log file I write to immediately after the mail function. It is not conditioned on the return var... it just writes the mail vars to the log. So according to the log it APPEARS that all the emails were sent. I've asked the host to check if there are any smtp errors. He says he doesn't see any. So..... is there a best practice for attempting to send again on failure? Should I just try a few times if it returns false? Should I write it all to the db, use a pending/success flag and cron to work through the pendings? That way it continues to attempt failures and I can run a failure report. I don't know. Any bright ideas? Similar TutorialsI am using the ReactPHP event loop with periodic timer. The code works but the browser always shows that the activity is going on (the circle on the chrome tab is always running, refer the link to image below) and it runs only once. Is it possible to get rid of the running circle and still the periodic loop should run in loop at given intervals to execute the code within the loop. Please advise. Circle on the tab Below is my code, Note: **getAll($temp) is a function with parameter in another .php file. I have got the file as include in my current .php file.
$Loop=React\EventLoop\Factory::create(); $Loop->addPeriodicTimer(5, function(React\EventLoop\TimerInterface $timer) use(&$temp, $Loop, &$Total) { try{ $Total = getAll($temp); echo"<script>document.getElementById('Overall').innerText=".$Total."</script>"; }catch (Exception $e){ echo "Error in Loop"; throw $e; } }); I have a notification system that notifies users of new comments, inside the email I have images, some of the logo, some of different people, everything shows up fine on my computer (yahoo email), however in the iPhones email application no images show up, there are just the blue squares with the question marks in them. I'm not sure what I'm missing. Code: [Select] $from = "Kithell <notifications@kithell.com>"; $headers = "From:" . $from ."\r\n"; $headers .= 'MIME-Version: 1.0' .

Here is the script: $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $query = "INSERT INTO tracking VALUES ('', '1', '$ip')"; echo $query; echo ("<hr>"); if (mysql_query($query)) { echo ("INSERT OK"); } else { echo ("INSERT failed"); } FYI: the 1st value is "auto_increment" in the DB, therefore blank ('') in the query string, and the 2nd value "1" is just for the page number 1, as this script will be on other pages, with different numbers. Now, when I go to this page, it outputs the query, and hr, and then "INSERT failed" and sure enough, no record gets added to the DB. The strangest thing is, is that when I copy the query that the page shows, and paste it into mysqlPHPadmin's "SQL" section and run it, it executes fine, and a record gets added to the DB, however the page is unable to do that. Any ideas? PS: the connection (which I didn't paste in here) is fine, that's definitely not the problem. I'm writing a Dynamic image, that display's a user's Name, but for some reason, the kills stat won't print. I made a .php file using the same parsing method, but using echo, and it worked fine.

Upon testing my PayPal IPN script, the paypal payment was recieved from payer to buyer, however the IPN script did not go any further than line 17... and therefore did not log any of the payment info into the designated mysql table, nor did it update anything else. The following error was logged in the "error_log": Quote PHP Warning: fsockopen() [<a href='function.fsockopen'>function.fsockopen</a>]: unable to connect to ssl://www.paypal.com:443 (Unable to find the socket transport "ssl" - did you forget to enable it when you configured PHP?) in /home/mysite/public_html/paypal_listener.php on line 17 This is the line in question on my IPN script: $fp = fsockopen ('ssl://www.paypal.com', 443, $errno, $errstr, 30); Completely new ground to me, but do i need to be getting the admins who host my site to enable this?

After working with the sample imagecreatefromjpeg provided in the PHP manual, I successfully got a result (after clearing my cache) from Quoteimagecreatefromjpeg($im, $file); I've gotten a good education after navigating this function over the past week, and loaded it with ECHO messages to give me insight. Everything was going fine. And then, this ONE test image came along. Apparently, the image (which is as good aj peg as I can find) FAILS the if(!im) test. When I used echo $im; i discovered that when images pass through the function, they receive a "Resource" name. Images that FAIL are NOT named. This image gets a Resource name, yet FAILS. Is there a problem with my logic? A problem with the image? What would cause this? How can I verify? I am working on an e banking web app. So i was stuck on the transferring to the same bank page..

That part was easy and when selected the appropriate info populates the page. The problem I am having is that no matter which one of those two options I click it only selects the second option . So in other words if these are the two options in the list: Some Business Week 1 Some Business Week 2 when I click either, Some Business Week 2 is always the one selected even though the page populates correctly.

Example: 380KB data POST fails with 367KB stored on remote host. No error message is saved to the remote host directory. I suspected suhosin.post.max_value_length as it is set to 64K, but more than four times that amount is being stored on the remote host. Can suhosin.post.max_value_length still be the problem?

Hi and thank you for reading my topic.
I'm building a search engine from a tutorial and I'm getting the famous "Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1" boolean etc..
I know mysql_num_rows() is depricated and I promise not to use it in the future but for now I'm using it in other projects on the same server and all's ok.
I'm quite sure it's a problem with the SQL syntax because when I paste SELECT * FROM searchengine WHERE keywords LIKE 'any_keyword_from_the_column' -into Phpmyadmin it won't return results, however a simple SELECT * FROM searchengine returns results.
So, without using mysql_error() I get: Warning: mysql_num_rows() expects parameter 1 to be resource, boolean given in C:\xampp\htdocs\research2\search.php on line 42
But after I applyin mysql_error() to everything I narrowed it down to this: $query = mysql_query($query) or die (mysql_error());:
I get the error msg:
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'OR keywords LIKE 'search' OR keywords LIKE 'term'' at line 1
I've checked multiple times to see if I've left out any columns in the db or mismatched them in while loop.
Below I have included the code which you can paste into a file called search.php along with the mysql dump file to pase into phpmyadmin query box. I'm using xampp.
In the code the WHERE clause is extended into the if statement and concatenated into the $query variable. This is done to break the words in the text box so they can be searched as an array.
As I said, I really think it is the SQL syntax and not the mysql_* functions but I could be wrong.
I'd really like to get this code working and mess with it. It looks like it could be very useful as a private website search engine.
Thanks for your time and mental energy.

Thanks for your time from the customer so that I can record the transaction into my database seeing as the pay button is on paypal and not on my any of my site. |
