PHP - Ping Ad Server
Hello, please can anyone advise a right solution on how to avoid my site acting strangely when one of my AD companies stops to function.
I mean there are downtimes for AD servers as well, and i'm wondering what is the best solution? Can i load ads on my pages separately, so i mean lastly? They are all over my page so i guess i can't do it. Or is it better to ping ad server and wrap these ADS around PHP if functions, which ping these servers? If you have a solution , which is most effective, please tell me. Similar Tutorialsok hi im new to the forums and didn't really know where to put this, so il put it here if its in the wrong place then im sorry, anyways currently im working on a site that will ping a server and come back with the standard Online/Offline and the MS, i've already worked on that cod and its working, one thing im not sure about though is, if its possible to only ping the server once every 2minets or so, as currently every person who comes on the site or presses F5 will ping it, i was thinking maybe somehow storing the MS ect in a database, and having the PHP read from the database and somehow every 3 minutes having it update?, but im not really sure how i would go about doing this, or even if its possible my, mySQL isn't great to say the best, il leave the PHP code below and see what you think, sorry about the code being a bit messy Code: [Select] <tr> <td class="SEBody1"> <?php // Function to check response time error_reporting(0); function pingDomain($domain) { $starttime = microtime(true); $file = fsockopen ($domain, 443, $errno, $errstr, 10); $stoptime = microtime(true); $status = 0; if (!$file) $status = -1; // Site is down else { fclose($file); $status = ($stoptime - $starttime) * 1000; $status = floor($status); } return $status; } echo '<table>'; $domainbase ="ipadress"; $status = pingDomain($domainbase); if ($status != -1) echo "<img src='img/shard_status_online.png' width='18' height='18' alt='Online' /> Online "; else echo "<img src='img/shard_status_offline.png' width='18' height='18' alt='Offline' />Offline"; echo '</table>'; ?> </td> <td class="SEBody1">Login</td> <td class="SEBody1">PvP</td> <td class="SEBody1"> <?php if ($status !=-1) echo "$status ms"; else echo "0 ms"; ?> </td> <td class="SEBody1">English</td> </tr> how can i output the remote user's ping to my server on my website through php? How Would I ping an IP Address with Php. I am planning on using ping so that it pings a server ip, and if it matches the ip that the server is hosted on, then it will activate the profile. EG: Ping: MagicPkz.no-ip.org Comes out with my IP(70.177.**.***) Now I go to a page, it checks to see if MagicPkz.no-ip.org matches up to my IP, and if it does, it activates the profile, if it doesn't it gives an error. is this the best way to check if a server is live? <?php $host = "www.google.com"; $fp = fsockopen($host, 80, $errno, $errstr, 10); if($fp) { echo "yes it is"; fclose($fp); } else { echo "no it is not"; } ?> But if you type in a false server eg www.googddfsdfsd.com it returns an error how can i get it to return false and why doesn't it. Hello All happy new year I am trying to make a php page that detects if something is plugged in to the ethernet port. This would be complex if not impossible. I however managed to do something similar the device that will be plugged in has a static address 192.168.1.1. so I created a ping that says if the device is up or down. function ping($host, $port, $timeout) { $fP = fSockOpen($host, $port, $errno, $errstr, $timeout); $status; if ($fP) { echo "Device is ready to accept data";} else { echo "Device Down - Retrying connection"; } } What I would like to do is have a script that is constantly checking is the device is plugged or when it is not (so sort of a loop or auto detect). The idea is to have an image with the device up or down. Regards and a happy new year JG I know that php has a function that can execute ping command but i'm not sure how it works. I am trying to get the result of the ping command to determine: IP address has a reply (PC/device is turned on) IP address has no reply (ip address is vacant and not assigned to any pc/device IP address has a response (PC/device is turned off) is this "do-able" in php?? this is my script: Code: [Select] function ping($ip){ // #5882FA blue color indicates Fiber Module // #FACC2E orange color indicates cascade/uplink cable // #81F781 Green color indicates connected/turned on // #FE2E2E Red color indicates disconnected/turned off // #585858 dark gray color indicates connected patch panel port is vacant at user side if($ip=="Cascade" OR $ip=="Uplink"){ return $status="style=\"background-color:#FACC2E;cursor:pointer;\""; /* orange */ }elseif ($ip=="Fibre Module"){ return $status="style=\"background-color:#5882FA;cursor:pointer;\""; /* blue */ }elseif ($ip==null or $ip==""){ return $status="style=\"cursor:pointer;background-image:url(images/x.gif);\""; /* dark gray */ }else{ $str = exec("ping -n 1 -w 1 $ip", $input, $result); if ($result == 0){ return $status="style=\"background-color:#81F781;cursor:pointer;\""; /* green */ //return "on"; }else{ return $status="style=\"background-color:#FE2E2E;cursor:pointer;\""; /* red */ //return "off"; } } } i can get it display on or off and i've tested it working. but i just can't figure out if i could use this command to determine if the IP address is vacant or unassigned. I'm using this for a IP list inventory system built in PHP. I have careted a page where the the 3com switch is drawn in tabulated format with each port assigned (via PHP) to the corresponding IP address of the device/PC and indicates the port color as described in the above function. Surprisingly it works well for this switch inventory. I just want to create another page for IP address inventory using the same function. To put is simple i want to have the same function as the sofware "Advance IP-Scanner" which does the same thing as well only thing is my resources are limited to PHP (WAMP). any help guys? 1st the log in code: Code <form method ="post" action="cartnisya.php"> <table border="0"align="right"> <td>Username:</td> <td><input type="Text" name="Username"></td> <td>  </td> <td>  </td> <td>Password:</td> <td><input type="Password" name="Password"></td> <td>  </td> <td colspan="2" align="center"><input type="Submit" name=submit" value="Submit"></td> </table> <img src="Vinnex1.jpg"> </form> it will then go the php code: CODE: <html> <?php $db = mysql_connect("localhost", "root",""); mysql_select_db("vinnex",$db); $Username = $_POST['Username']; echo $Username; $result = mysql_query("Select TransNo From transaction", $db); $myrow = mysql_fetch_array($result); if ($myrow=='') { $TransNo='1000'; $sql = mysql_query("Select * From customer where Username='$Username'", $db); $myrow1 = mysql_fetch_array($sql); $Username = $myrow1['Username']; $Firstname = $myrow1['Firstname']; $Lastname = $myrow1['Lastname']; $name = $Firstname.

Great. Now I can automate the process instead of manually going to their website. My problem is actually simple. Sometime Pingomatic is quite busy and is unable to receive the request. I want to be able to check the status of my ping request but I don't know how to get this specific field/variable? from the result. Here is the ping script: Code: [Select] $title = "My blog title"; $url = "http://mynewbloglink"; function pingomatic($title,$url,$debug=true) { $content='<?xml version="1.0"?>'. '<methodCall>'. ' <methodName>weblogUpdates.ping</methodName>'. ' <params>'. ' <param>'. ' <value>'.$title.'</value>'. ' </param>'. ' <param>'. ' <value>'.$url.'</value>'. ' </param>'. ' </params>'. '</methodCall>'; $headers="POST / HTTP/1.0\r\n". "User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090624 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)\r\n". "Host: rpc.pingomatic.com\r\n". "Content-Type: text/xml\r\n". "Content-length: ".strlen($content); if ($debug) nl2br($headers); $request=$headers."\r\n\r\n".$content; $response = ""; $fs=fsockopen('rpc.pingomatic.com',80, $errno, $errstr); if ($fs) { fwrite ($fs, $request); while (!feof($fs)) $response .= fgets($fs); if ($debug) echo "<xmp>".$response."</xmp>"; fclose ($fs); preg_match_all("/<(name|value|boolean|string)>(.*)<\/(name|value|boolean|string)>/U",$response,$ar, PREG_PATTERN_ORDER); for($i=0;$i<count($ar[2]);$i++) $ar[2][$i]= strip_tags($ar[2][$i]); return array('status'=> ( $ar[2][1]==1 ? 'ko' : 'ok' ), 'msg'=>$ar[2][3] ); } else { if ($debug) echo "<xmp>".$errstr." (".$errno.")</xmp>"; return array('status'=>'ko', 'msg'=>$errstr." (".$errno.")"); } } pingomatic($title,$url,$debug=true); This script works and when Pingomatic 'is available' returns something to the effect of Thanks for pinging, you're blog is being forwarded...etc. etc. When Pingomatic is too busy I receive the following result: Code: [Select] HTTP/1.1 200 OK Server: nginx Date: Mon, 30 Apr 2012 22:23:17 GMT Content-Type: text/xml;charset=utf-8 Connection: close Content-Length: 390 <?xml version="1.0"?> <methodResponse> <params> <param> <value> <struct> <member><name>flerror</name><value><boolean>1</boolean></value></member> <member><name>message</name><value><string>Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment</string></value></member> </struct> </value> </param> </params> </methodResponse> What I'm trying to get in a variable is the '<member><name>message' result. In this case it's "Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment". This way I can try to ping the server again later at another time knowing that the ping was not successful. What I've tried: I've attempted to see if the 'message' (Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment) is in some of the variables within the original function: $pingresponse = "<xmp>".$errstr." (".$errno.")</xmp>"; $pingresponse2 = "<xmp>".$response."</xmp>"; $pingresponse3 = array('status'=> ( $ar[2][1]==1 ? 'ko' : 'ok' ), 'msg'=>$ar[2][3] ); echo "Ping Server Response : Debug: ".$debug." Errstr :".$errstr." Errno: ".$errno."Response: ".$response; But it isn't. My plan was to use strpos to search for the term "Pingomatic is a bit overloaded at the moment" in which I'll be able to know whether or not the ping was successful or not. Any ideas? Hello, I need a small php script to ping a domain with custom referrer url eg: I need a script to ping a website www.abc.com with a custom referrer url ie. xyz.com so that the website abc.com would think that the traffic is from xyz.com Anyone have an idea? --SS I have a PHP web system that store in a windows server. In the system, there is a function for user to upload files to another server (Shared server in Unix). When i try to upload a file, it gives warning: Warning: move_uploaded_file(\\unixserver/sharedfolder/upload/test.txt) [function.move-uploaded-file]: failed to open stream: Permission denied in C:\wamp\www\upload\index.php on line 40 For your information, my username has been assigned in xxx's group that has access to read and write on that folder. Besides, i'm able to open,create and delete files on that folder's server manually (samba). The safe mode setting is off. Does anybody has any idea why this thing happen? I'm trying to make a simple website where people register to my website. When the user doesn't fill anything inside the boxes they get a message "Please fill all required fields" on the register.php page On my local host require_once works good. It shows up.
But when i upload the files to my sever the require_once does not show up on the register.php It just refreshes and i dont get the message "Please fill all required fields"
This is the code that works in local host but not in a live server <?php require_once 'messages.php'; ?>
Here is my full code
Register page: <html> <?php require_once 'messages.php'; ?> <br><br> <form action="register-clicked.php" method="POST"> Username:<br> <input type="text" name="usernamebox" placeholder="Enter Username Here"> <br><br> Email:<br> <input type="text" name="emailbox" placeholder="Enter email here"> <br><br> Password:<br> <input type="password" name="passwordbox" placeholder="Enter password here"> <br><br> Confirm Password:<br> <input type="password" name="passwordconfirmbox" placeholder="Re-enter password here"> <br><br> <input type="submit" name="submitbox" value="Press to submit"> <br><br> </form> </html>

Edited Wednesday at 12:49 AM by bee65 Hi, I am not a PHP programmer. I took on a new client with a simple PHP site, without any databases. The site is up and running on the web. I would like to get it running on my local machine for further development. I have latest version of WAMP installed, running Apache version 2.2.11 and PHP version 5.3.0 I created a directory in the WAMP "www" project directory and it shows up there like it's supposed to when I browse to "localhost" Problem: The home page of website displays text but no, images, styles, footer, header, nav links, etc. Here is the code for the home page: <? define("NAV","home"); require_once('local/local.php'); ?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <title>TITLE</title> <meta name="keywords" content=""> <meta name="Description" content=""> <? include("common/dochead.php"); ?> </head> <body onLoad="<? include('common/preloads.php'); ?>"> <!-- ============================ main ============================= --> <div id="main-frame"><div id="main" class="noCollapse"> <? include("common/sign.php"); ?> <div id="right-frame"> <? include("common/navigation.php"); ?> <div id="content-frame"> <div id="content"> <h1>Welcome</h1> <p>This is the content area.

I have spent many hours on this. Regards Hi folks, I'm curious if I can for example, save a file from my server and it will save to all other servers - obviously if they accepted the connection first. It's for a software I developed and is almost complete and know there will be frequent updates to it. Instead of users downloading upates, I want the update files from my server to somehow synchronize to their server automatically? Anything called this?? Thanks for info. This isn't exactly an application design question, but rather a system design one.
I am about to install an Inventory Control System inside this store I work in.
The store itself also owns a Linode VPS running Centos 6.4 which hosts our website.
This new Inventory System will come built in with a Microsoft SQL Server, and supposedly it is a SQL Anywhere database, but I'm not too sure what that means.
I need to make this database publicly accessible, but only via the Linode VPS. Surely, setting restrictions is easy enough to address that issue. That isn't my question.
My first idea is to put this server into the DMZ, easy. But it doesn't exactly sound safe. So my next idea was to put a middleman server in the DMZ, this way the Linode can send queries to that middleman server and it will send that data to the SQL Server and back. This is very vaguely described I know, but I don't want to get too much into details, but rather, understand how I can create that middleman server, and what could Install onto it that would allow me to securely process queries?
My first thought was to install a webservice, that accepts an XML/JSON request and returns an XML/JSON response.
Then, I realized directly afterwards that I don't have any experience setting up a webservice like that.
What kind of options are there out there? Ultimately, my question is, should I just put the Server in the DMZ or should I create the middleman, and if so, can someone point me in the right direction as to getting a webservice set up? Edited by Zane, 15 July 2014 - 11:28 PM. Following a tutorial on udemy, i tried to learn the very basics of mvc structure. I built the same project on my local server and it worked without giving me any error. but when i tried it on live server. its not working as it should. not showing any error. I tried to figure out the problem and found that for every page loading, it stops at the same line in my main.php file. <?php require($view); ?> starting from the above line. it stops. i came here to share my problem but i am unable to upload my files here. if there is a way to upload and share my files, please guide. zip file size of the whole project is 31.6 kb Hey. I am wanting to move a couple of files from my current server to another. If i am uploading the file this is fine but if it is already on the server then im not sure how to move it. When uploading I can just use ftp_put($conn_id, $destination_file, $myFile, FTP_BINARY); What i need to do is figure out how to get a hold of the file and store it in $myFile then this would work fine. Is this possible? Cheers (This might be the wrong forum; it might be server-side configuration, but alas it is the code that *calls* fwrite, so I'll start here.) I have written a script, and one thing it does is generate a file to disk using fwrite. No big deal. Here's what interests me: On most servers, the file is written successfully when the folder's permissions are 755 with recursive permissions. On some servers, 755 fails. Only 777 works. How could this be? Are permissions=permissions=permissions? Why will 755 work on one machine but not another? I'm just a logic guy; I know very little of server-side configuration and/or why there would be a difference here. Just trying to learn. I have two servers: WebServer and FaxServer. WebServer needs to send a fax. Is my approach shown below fairly secure? Before sending a fax, ServerWeb needs to store a record in a table representing the message, and I am using a pseudo random value for the PK which is generated as 2147483648+mt_rand(-2147483647,2147483647). WebServer then generates a hash equal to hash('sha256',$pk.'secretCodeWhichOnlyWebServerAndFaxServerKnow'). WebServer then sends curl request to FaxServer using POST which includes $pk, the hash, the fax number, some text to include in the fax, and an optional array of document to include (array(array('id'=>321,'name')=>'fileName.pdf')). FaxServer verifies that the hash is correct given $pk, that the minimum information has been received, and that the fax number is a valid phone number, and quickly responds to WebServer by echoing 0 or 1 so the code in the WebServer could continue and inform the user. If all looks okay, a new instance of PHP is started.
if(missingInformation) {echo(0);}
else {
session_start();
$_SESSION['_xfr']=$_POST;
exec('/usr/bin/php -q /path/to/send_fax.php '.session_id().' >/dev/null &');
echo(1);
}
New instance of PHP send_fax.php then does the following:
session_id($argv[1]);//Set by parent
session_start();
$data=$_SESSION['_xfr'];
$doc_list=null;
foreach ($data['documents'] AS $doc)
{
if(ctype_alnum($doc['id']))
{
$file='/some/tmp/directory/'.$doc['id'];
if(!file_exists($file))
{
$url='http://machine.WebServer.com/index.php?task=displayDocument&id='.$doc['id'].'&x='.hash('sha256','displayDocument'.$doc['id'].'secretCodeWhichOnlyWebServerAndFaxServerKnow');
$cmd='wget -O '.$file.' '.escapeshellarg($url);
exec($cmd);
}
$doc_list.=' '.$file;
}
exit('invalid document');
}
//Send the fax...
//Send another CURL request to the WebServer similar to the wget giving the fax status.
exit;
When WebServer receives the wget request for a document, it confirms the hash and sends the document to the FaxServer using X-Sendfile.When WebServer receives the CURL request regarding status, it updates the database for the applicable message. Seem reasonably secure? What I'm trying to do is copy all files from one server to another folder on another server. Here is what I have have so far.. <?PHP //connection settings $ftp_server = "server"; $ftp_user_name = "user"; $ftp_user_pass = "pass"; $dir = "/var/test/"; $destination_file = "/test/"; // set up basic connection $conn_id = ftp_connect($ftp_server); // login with username and password $login_result = ftp_login($conn_id, $ftp_user_name, $ftp_user_pass); // check connection if ((!$conn_id) || (!$login_result)) { echo "FTP connection has failed!"; echo "Attempted to connect to $ftp_server for user $ftp_user_name"; exit; } else { echo "Connected to $ftp_server, for user $ftp_user_name"; } if (ftp_chdir($conn_id, $dir)) { echo " <br/>Current directory is now: " . ftp_pwd($conn_id) . "\n<p/>"; } else { echo "Couldn't change directory\n<p/>"; } $buff = ftp_rawlist($conn_id, $dir); foreach($buff as $files) { echo $files. "<br/>"; if (ftp_get($conn_id, $destination_file."test.file", $dir."test.txt", FTP_BINARY)) { echo "<br/>Successfully written to $destination_file\n"; } else { echo "There was a problem\n"; } ?> That doesn't work. Any ideas? Thanks, Sean I just did a huge import from an app I have been working on. No issues except for this. I uploaded & imported all files & databases from my wampserver (localhost, local server) to my main online server. Before I continue with the problem, I have to give you info on how the files work. I am using a "controller" to view the files. Meaning, from index.php, I call all the files. For example, instead of mysite.com/register.php, its mysite.com/index.php?page=register. The index defines the doctype & html tags etc. The other files that are called through index.php are just pure php code, it does not contain the head & body tags etc. So, the issue is , when the surfer submits a form, i need to set a cookie. this cookie is VERY important. I cannot get it to work. I am getting the header warnings after submit Of course, this is to be expected. But I tried it on my local server, & it worked. I am not very familiar with cookies, this is a side of PHP i never really even touched. I know almost everything but that. So the php code is before the html code on the page, so I figured it was worth a shot. Im guessing the problem here is, since the code being outputted as index.php code + the form page code. So the cookie is being set after the html tags. How can I fix this? I need it to work thru the controller. I cannot just make it a single file, all files on the site needs to be thru this controller, otherwise it will mess everything up. Ino I could just add the code from index.php plus the form page code & just run the php code before all of the html tags, but like I said it has to be called thru index.php. I appreciate your replies, & I hope you guys dont think im an idiot & can understand my question, im terrible with words! |
