Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: Access denied for user 'SYSTEM'@'localhost' (using password: NO) in C:\wamp\www\scripts\create_Table.php on line 34

Warning: mysql_query() [function.mysql-query]: A link to the server could not be established in C:\wamp\www\scripts\create_Table.php on line 34

Hi
I am trying to create a blog system for my website.

I have been following a tutorial and testing everything along the way. As part of the tutorial I have created the function get_posts which is giving me the error. As I have no data in my database at the moment I have tested this code in the sql section of phpmyadmin.

The error reads:

MySQL said: 

#1064 - 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 '['posts'.'post_body'] AS 'preview',
                'posts','post_user' AS 'user',
                DAT' at line 4

(which isn't a very helpful error)

The function is:
Code: [Select]
function get_posts(){
$sql = "SELECT
'posts','post_id' AS 'id',
'posts','post_title' AS 'title',
LEFT['posts'.'post_body','512'] AS 'preview',
'posts','post_user' AS 'user',
DATE_FORMAT['posts'.'post_date','%d/%m/%Y %H:%i:%s'] AS 'date',
'comments'.'total_comments',
DATE FORMAT['comments'.'last_comment','%d/%m/%Y %H:%i:%s'] AS 'last_comment'
FROM 'posts'
LEFT JOIN (
SELECT
'post_id';
COUNT('comment_id') AS 'total_comments',
MAX('comment_date') AS 'last_comment'
FROM 'comments'
GROUP BY 'post_id'
) AS 'comments'
ON 'posts'.'post_id' = 'comments'.'post_id'
ORDER BY 'posts','post_date' DESC";

$posts = mysql_query($sql);

$rows = array();
}

I would really appreciate it if somebody could take a look and see if they can see the error.

Thanks a lot in advance

Hi,

I am creating a website but am having trouble with the following:

I have an include file(db.inc) which contains the following:

function clean($input, $maxlength)
{
$input = substr($input, 0, $maxlength);
$input = EscapeShellCmd($input);
return ($input);
}

The file I am having the problem with is my view.php file. I get the following error:

Notice: Undefined variable: file in C:\wamp\www\fermpix\view.php on line 4

Line 4 contains the following:

$file = clean($file, 4);

My view.php does have the line:

include 'db.inc';


Does anybody have any idea what the issue might be?

Cheers
Paul

I'd like to set my own error handler function to clear some session variables, but I do not want to completely replace php's internal error handler message reporting.

Is there any way to mimic the internal error message reporting so I can define my own error handler function.


function myErrorHandler(){
  unset($_SESSION['var']);

  // HERE EXECUTE Normal PHP error message reporting

}


Thanks

I am getting this error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '[', expecting ')' in C:\xampp\htdocs\Work\Store\store.php on line 154

when I run the following code:

Code: [Select]
function categorySearch($sql)
{
$res = mysqli_query($this->conn,$sql);
$this->results='<table>';
while($cRow = mysqli_fetch_array($res))
{
function getCategoryName($cRow[0])
$this->results .= '<tr><td style="border: thin solid #000000;">' . $this->cat_str . '</td></tr>';
}
$this->results.='</table>';
return $this->results;

}


Line 154 refers to this line:   function getCategoryName($cRow[0])

Can anyone see what the problem is?

I get this error message and no email when I test this form

Warning: mail() [function.mail]: Failed to connect to mailserver at "127.0.0.1" port 25, verify your "SMTP" and "smtp_port" setting in php.ini or use ini_set() ini_set() in \\boswinfs02\home\users\web\b1835\ez.srcfresnocom\PCHSubscomplete.php on line 28

Line 28 is the $send = and the web address is assigned by the webhosting service. Is the problem with my mail function code?

Code: [Select]

<?php
$to = 'survey@srcfresno.com';
 $subject = 'PCH subs'; 
 if (get_magic_quotes_gpc()) { $_POST = array_map('stripslashes',$_POST); }

 'email' => 'Email',

Hi everyone,

Here is the code:
// Count files
function filecount($FolderPath) {

    $filescount = 0;
 // Open the directory 
    $dir = opendir($FolderPath);
// if the directory doesn't exist  return 0
    if (!$dir){return 0;}
 // Read the directory and get the files 
    while (($file = readdir($dir)) !== false) {
 
        if ($file[0] == '.'){ continue; }

  //if '.' it is a sub folder and call the function recursively
        if (is_dir($FolderPath.$file)){        

            // Call the function if it is a folder type
            $filescount += filecount($FolderPath.$file.DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR);
        }
        else {
            // Increment the File Count.
            $filescount++;
        }
    }    
    // close the directory
    closedir($dir);
     return $filescount;
}

function getfilenames($location)
{
    // create an array to hold directory list
    $results = array();

    // create a handler for the directory
    $handler = opendir($location);

    // open directory and walk through the filenames
    while ($file = readdir($handler)) {

      // if file isn't this directory or its parent, add it to the results
      if ($file != "." && $file != "..") {
        $results[] = $file;
      }

    }

    // tidy up: close the handler
    closedir($handler);
    // done!
    return $results;
}

function readfile($file)
{

$fh = fopen('./Data/' . $file, 'r');
$data = fread($fh, filesize($file));
fclose($fh);
return $data;
}

Now, when I try to get the text from a textfile via the function readfile I get this error:
Quote

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare readfile() in ***Path\FileManagement.php on line 62


Whats wrong?

Hi Experts,
When I try to send email from my web page (using PHP) I get the following error in my code.
I am using Dreamweaver CS3.

My php code :

<?php
$name = $_POST['name'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$email = $_POST['email'];
$message = $_POST['message'];

$message1 = " Somaone has contacted through the website . \n
Name : $name \n
Address : $address \n
Email : $email \n
Message : $massage \n " ;
$from = " From : $email ";
mail('mail1@yahoo.com','Contact from our website', $message1, $from);
?>

Error : Warning: mail() [function.mail]: "sendmail_from" not set in php.ini or custom "From:"  header missing in C:\xampp\htdocs\sendmail.php on line 17
[ line 17 -> mail('mail1@yahoo.com','Contact from our website', $message1, $from); ]

Thanks in advance for all your suggestions.

I originally had lines 9 and 10 set up like this except for the php opening and closing tags, lol:
Code: [Select]
<?php
$errors();
$missing();
?>

But as you can see on my full code at lines 9 and 10, I made a minor change to it and now the error comes from line 11 instead of 9 and 10. And now I could use some help with this.....
