PHP - How To Access Xampp Server On A Local Home Network

I have a website uploaded onto Host Gator hosting and the sessions are carried over to the other pages ok.
When using the same website in XAMPP it does not carry over the session to the next page and need to login again.

If i log in it puts the following after the URL - ?sid=3b71942d410d84c45f9f4433561c325a
The when i go to another link it loses the sid and i'll need to manualy past it into the next URL to get it working unless i log in again on the new page.

This is only happening with XAMPP but working fine in the Host Gator hosting environment.

Please help!

My login is integrated with the phpbb3 login.

This is the code at the beginning of every page -

Code: [Select]
<?php
ob_start();
define('IN_PHPBB', true);
$phpbb_root_path = './phpbb3/';
$phpEx = substr(strrchr(__FILE__, '.'), 1);
include($phpbb_root_path . 'common.' . $phpEx);
// Start session management
$user->session_begin();
$auth->acl($user->data);
$user->setup();
?>

This is really strange and throwing me for a loop.  I suspect there's a config setting somewhere in my PHP setup on my server which I am missing...

I have a PHP script that renders a vector drawing (as a series of lines/points) into a png image.
When I'm testing the script on my local machine (XAMPP + OSX) everything works great.  When the script runs on my host (hostgator) the imagefilledellipse() function renders as a square instead of a circle.  Screenshots below.  Try the server version for yourself at http://sundrynotes.com/alpha/ (press "create new note" in the lower right then long-press on the note and select the "whiteboard" option, draw, then press "accept").

My setup: (everything on a local network)
Web server: Ubuntu Server 8.10 -- Workgroup
File server: Windows Server 2008 x64 -- domain
Test server: Win 2000 running WAMP -- domain

I'm trying to run the code snippet below. $file is a file on the File server above. It definitely exists.
Running the code below on the Test server works perfectly. But the file cannot be found when running from the Web server.
$file = '//server/share/file.txt';
if (file_exists($file))
echo 'yay!';
else
echo 'error';

What with the safe mode considerations, I've also tried to add:
ini_set('safe_mode', 'Off'); to no effect. And since file, and fopen similarly not work, I'm pretty sure it's not that either.

The File & Test servers are on the same Windows domain, but that's definitely not the reason. I tried the code on a file on a Linux computer in the Workgroup (where the Web server is) with the same results: Test server works, Web server does not.

Please advise; I'm really lost.

I am getting these errors . This is my complete HTML page.

Everything seems to work fine but when i retweet a message these error show up.

Here is my tweet.php and the errors are at line 32 and 41.

Previously there was an error at line 24:

It was like this:

'.((!empty($tweet->retweetMsg) && $tweet->tweetID === $retweet['tweetID'] or $tweet->retweetID > 0) ? '

I changed it to this and the error went away

'.((isset($retweet['retweetID']) ? $retweet['retweetID'] === $tweet->retweetID OR $tweet->retweetID > 0 : '') ? '

Maybe this could help!

I will really appreciate any suggestion coming my way!

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!

Hi ppl

I have a weird error... (or at least i think its weird)

I have a project with 3 forms, and at the end(the last file) will enter all data of this form in an email and sent it using PEAR smtp email. On my local server it works. Everything - from testing all the mandatory fields in each form till the sending of the email. I also receive the email using @localhost.

When I upload these files to the server, every form with the testing of the mandatory fields and returning to that form, everything works, except the file where I test the last form and put all content in the email body.

On the server, as soon as the last  page starts to load, I get a Server Error HTTP Error 500. I really don't understand it, as everything works on my local xampp server.

Please let me know of places I can search for errors... like log files on the server or something like that.

Thanks

PS: I also used NetBeans, with its debugger, so I am quite sure its not the code, maybe a php setting...

Hey!

I'm trying to use a local server to test my site out. I'm using dreamweaver for all the coding. I installed WAMP server and have the local host working. When I preview the site, it really is messed up. For example, if I have this code:

Code: [Select]

"; echo "Member Total: ".$database->getNumMembers()."
"; echo "There are $database->num_active_users registered members and "; echo "$database->num_active_guests guests viewing the site.

"; include("include/view_active.php"); ?>
To me, it seems like a " problem but I don't see why it would be happening.

im wondering is there any easy way to echo server time and local time... without converting them from unix to timestamp

i have found thi code, but i cant tell is it server or local
Code: [Select]
echo date("H:i" ,time());

hello and good day dear php-freaks

which is the passwd for the mysql db
run opensuse - therein i have installed a myql serfver and an apache


now i want to port over a cms-system from a server to the localhost.

question: the passwd of the configuriatin of the cms has got the following

db connecgtion
host : localhost
db-name
db-passwd


question: does the db passwd need to match the passwd of the local mysql server!?

is this true


love to hear from you

Hello, I have a call tu function unserialize() in a script that receives a string and has to return an array. In my localhost it works properly but in the server it returns a 1 dimension array with empty value. I'm testing with the string a:1:{s:1:"0";s:8:"value_eq";}

The php.ini configuration for magic_quotes is (in both, server and localhost):

magic_quotes_gpc Off
magic_quotes_runtime Off

Other configurations is difficult to compare, as php info is long and very different in local and server.

Any ideas where the problem might be?

Thank you

Hi, ive recently created a gallery website and im happy with the way everything currently works. However the main drawback is the site uploads using a html webfom which is great for remote users or the odd image.

However, as i want to mass upload my existing collection i will need the ability to read a selected folder and then to carry out all the same processes that existed from the existing html form upload.

Im also using gdlibrary and checking file types to ensure they are within my allowed list, but im wondering if there are any other common security alerts i should be aware of to keep things a little bit safer if/when i publish outside of my LAN.

So in a nut shell i need some assistance with changing my upload process to work for more than one file at a time, ideally by reading a folder, or at least reading X amount of files at a time - processing them then moving onto next batch of files in the list.  Then the next part i need help with is checking/improving basic security of the system

I have been working on a blog program with a tag system. When I add tags and ask to display them to a certain webpage they all appear on my WAMP environment but not my live server. Any thoughts as to why this might be? Here is the code needed to display the tags. I am not sure if maybe live servers have restrictions that might be stopping it from displaying.    This is on the main page to display the tags.

				<div class="widget">
		<?php
				
				echo '<h2>Tags</h2>';
				echo '<ul>';
				getTagCount($DBH);
				echo '</ul>';
		?>
			</div>

Next here is the function from the includes file.

function getTagCount($DBH) {
    
    //Make the connection and grab all the tag's TAG TABLE HAS TWO FIELDS id and name
            $stmt = $DBH->query("SELECT * FROM tags");
            $stmt->execute();
            $result = array();
            $result = $stmt->fetchAll();
            //For each row pulled do the following
            foreach ($result as $row){
                //set the tagId and tagName to the id and name fields from the tags table
                $tagId = $row['id'];
                $tagName = ucfirst($row['name']);
                
                //Next grab the list of used tags BLOG_POST_TAGS TABLE HAS TWO FILEDS blog_post_id and tag_id
                $stmt2 = $DBH->query("SELECT count(*) FROM blog_post_tags WHERE tag_id = " . $tagId);
                $stmt2->execute();
                $tagCount = $stmt2->fetchColumn();
                
                //Print the following list 
                echo '<li><a href="blog_tags.php?tagId=' . $tagId . '"title="' . $tagName . '">' . $tagName . '(' . $tagCount . ')</a></li></form>';
                
            //End of loop - start again
            }
            
}

The "tags" database is structured like so  id, name   The "blog_post_tags" is structured like so,   blog_post_id, tag_id       On the WAMP server it returns all of tags while the live server only returns the first one. Any suggestions on what is going on? If you need any other info please let me know.     

Hi,

I have a mail script to that will take a long time to process, let me call it form2.php

Now I post from form1.php to form2.php.

I like to run/execute the form2.php in the background so that the user will not wait for the time executing the form2.php.

I have used exec and shell_exec but not success.

I am using latest WAMP server in my local mechine.

Thanks

Hi All

I have been working on a project in PHP for about three months. I have been happily working away with a WAMP server locally all that time. The problem arose today when I uploaded the project to a web server. I uploaded all the files by FTP and imported a mysql database on the new web server. When I went to view my home page I got the following error:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/priestbr/public_html/output_fns.php on line 1

My index page references an include to a page which stores my functions:

<?php
 error_reporting(E_ALL ^ E_NOTICE);
 session_start();
include('priest_br_fns.php');

The priest_br_fns.php then includes a further 3 includes as below:

<?php
  include_once('db_fns.php');
  include_once('output_fns.php');
  include_once('general_fns.php');
 ?>


PHP seems to parse the db_fns.php page OK and fails at output_fns.php (as per the parse error msg). But here's the thing....during some investigation I deleted the contents of db_fns.php and pasted in the contents of output_fns.php and then the page got parsed OK!

Anyone have any idea why it's failing? Is it something to do with how I have the includes set up? I really need all the includes working obviously for the site to run.

For info my local server where the site works perfectly is set up as below:

PHP 5.2.6, MySQL 5.0.51a, Apache 2.2.8

The web server is set up like this:

PHP 5.2.1.14, MySQL 5.0.91, Apache 2.2.16.

Thanks in advance,

Craig
