PHP - Best Web Hosts?

im trying to make an art gallery site for my sister with free hosting, i need upload_max_filesize to be at least 3mb
ive tried many free hosting services and they are all 1.5mb
ive tried changing it with .htaccess files and php.ini files, seems the free hosts are cracking down on that stuff
does anyone know of a free hosting service that has at least 3mb upload_max_filesize? or perhaps someone knows of a service where it can be changed with php.ini files or .htaccess files

Hi guys, hoping you can help.

Iv recently moved a site from one server to another. Needless to say this site encountered a few errors when the move was done. I believe i have corrected most of these errors but now it is as though the mysql data base isnt connecting correctly with the site. I can see the category's on the site but when i click on a category the products do not display. Its almost as though the info is not being pulled through from the data base. Im at a complete loss!

It was originally on a site running MYSQL5.0.92 old and the new site is running 5.1.56 new.Not sure if that makes a difference. Any help greatly needed/appreciated

Hello,

I am looking for a push in the right direction. I would like to be able to view a website that is duplicated on many servers by specifying the IP address. Similar to how one would use the hosts file.

I can do this using netcat
nc 1.2.3.4 80
Host: example.com
GET /contact-us.html
<CR><CR>

Can someone tell me how I would go about porting this to PHP? I would just like to set up a small page on my webserver where I can enter the domain and IP address and have the page displayed back to me.

Thanks Colin

Dear All,

I am having 2 different DB on 2 different hosts.

I am running MySQL Server on my local PC where the user is entering data in the tables. I have a website which has the identical DB on the web. I am able to connect to the database by using the codes on the server.

I want to update the server DB with the local system DB by running one update command. I get the error "-SELECT command denied to user 'localusername'@'localhost' for table 'pst_data'"

Given below is the code used for the process :

//connecting the remote system DB
$link = mysql_connect('IPAddress:3306', 'remoteusername', 'Password');
if (!$link) {
    die('Not connected : ' . mysql_error());
}

$db_selected = mysql_select_db('remotedb', $link);
if (!$db_selected) {
    die ('Can\'t use Remote System DB: ' . mysql_error());
}

//connecting the local database on the webstite
$weblink = mysql_connect("localhost","localusername","password");
if (!$weblink) {
    die('Not connected : ' . mysql_error());
}
$webdb_selected = mysql_select_db('localwebdb', $weblink);
if (!$webdb_selected) {
    die ('Can\'t use WebServer Database : ' . mysql_error());
}

//query to fetch the records from remote ystem and insert into local website database
$upd_Query=mysql_query("INSERT INTO  localwebdb.`table` SELECT * FROM  remotedb.`table` where field=' some condition' ");
---------------------------------------------------

I have tested that I have connected the remote DB by running queries on the webserver.

Could anyone bail me out so that i can copy the DB from remote to local

Any help would be appreciated

Hi guys.

This is my first question on phpFreaks (the other 900+ posts I've made were always an attempt to help someone else)

Here's the issue: when using gethostbyaddr($_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']) on a local machine (current using MAMP on OS X) the name returned is not the first entry in my /etc/hosts file.
(On php.net there's another person also commenting on this and saying that apparently gethostbyaddr() selects a random entry from the file.)

This is not really an issue, since everything will work fine on my FreeBSD production server where each IP address has only one DNS record (I'm building the company's intranet, so I know exactly what's in our DNS tables) but I'm curious to know if anyone has had the same issue/problem and if there's a way around it. (Logic/Common sense tells me the first record should be the one returned)

Currently I have the following information in my /etc/hosts file:
Code: [Select]
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.0.1       iSy
255.255.255.255 broadcasthost
::1             localhost
fe80::1%lo0 localhost
# Other names for testing purposes
127.0.0.1 name1.blablabla.com
127.0.0.1 name2.blablabla.com
127.0.0.1 name3.blablabla.com
127.0.0.1 name4.blablabla.com
127.0.0.1 name5.blablabla.com
127.0.0.1 name6.blablabla.com
127.0.0.1 name7.blablabla.com
127.0.0.1 name8.blablabla.com
the value returned is always line 8: name2.blablabla.com. If I comment out that line, then it moves 'randomly' to line 12: name6.blablabla.com and sticks with it even if I shut down the servers and then boot up again.

any ideas?

cheers.
