PHP - Shell_exec Doesn't Seem To Work On Hosted Server (bluehost)

Code: [Select]
500 Server Error
A misconfiguration on the server caused a hiccup. Check the server logs, fix the problem, then try again.
What does this mean? Does it mean their server is down or what?
It was just working for me this morning.
It's seeming like it's my fault, but I didn't even touch any of the pages since then.

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

I've joined querys because I'm making my own forums. However, when it gets to the echoin out part, it shows the category and only ONE of the sub categorys.

Code: [Select]
<div id="forumContainer">
<?php
$lastboard = '';

$forumQ = mysql_query("SELECT

   f1.cat_name as catName,
   f1.cat_id as catID,
   f2.cat_id as subCatID,
   f2.sub_id as subID,
   f2.sub_name as subName,
   f2.sub_desc as subDesc
   
   FROM `forum_cats` as f1
    LEFT JOIN `forum_sub` as f2
    ON f1.cat_id = f2.cat_id
   GROUP BY f2.cat_id
   ");
  
while($forumF = mysql_fetch_assoc($forumQ))
{
if($forumF['catName'] != $lastboard)
{
echo '<div class="forumCat">'.$forumF['catName'].'</div>';
$lastboard = $forumF['catName'];
}
echo '<div class="forumSub">'.$forumF['subName'].'</div>';
}
?>
</div>

$Row[2] doesn't work but if I use $Row["linkcat"] than it works fine.
Is there somewhere to activate in the php.ini file ?


Code: [Select]
// I got 9 fields to in the table tbl_link !  $Row[2] should give me a number.

$Verbinding = mysql_connect($db_host, $db_user, $db_passw);
mysql_select_db($db_name);
$sql = "Select * from tbl_link where userid=1";
$ResultShow = mysql_query($sql);

while ($Row = mysql_fetch_assoc($ResultShow)){
 
    echo $Row[2];

}

All the tables are correct and it's making the connect to the database fine it's just not working, did I write it wrong?


Code: [Select]
function newPm($to, $from, $title, $text){
$q = $db->query("SELECT * FROM ibf_message_topics ORDER BY mt_id DESC");
$lastMsg = $db->fetch_assoc($q);
$mid = $lastMsg['mt_id'] + 1;
$msgId = $lastMsg['mt_msg_id'] + 1;
$db->query("INSERT INTO ibf_message_topics SET mt_id=$mid, mt_msg_id=$msgId, mt_date=". time(). ", mt_title='$title', mt_from_id=$from, mt_to_id=". $to. ", mt_vid_folder='in', mt_read=0, mt_owner_id=$to, mt_user_read=0") or die(mysql_error());
$db->query("INSERT INTO ibf_message_text SET msg_id=$msgId, msg_date=". time() .", msg_post='$text', msg_sent_to_count=1, msg_author_id=$from") or die(mysql_error());
$userq = $db->query("SELECT new_msg FROM ibf_members WHERE id = $to");
$userData = $db->fetch_assoc($userq);
$msgCount = $userData['new_msg'] + 1;
$db->query("UPDATE ibf_members SET new_msg=$msgCount, show_popup=1 WHERE id = $to") or die(mysql_error());
}

Here's how that function is being called in the beginning of the page:


Code: [Select]
if($action =="banUser"){
$expire = time() + (3600000 * 24 * $_GET['duration']);
$q = $db->query("SELECT * FROM ibf_message_topics ORDER BY mt_id DESC");
$lastMsg = $db->fetch_assoc($q);
$mid = $lastMsg['mt_id'] + 1;
$msgId = $lastMsg['mt_msg_id'] + 1;
$title = "Notification";
$duration = $_GET['duration'] ." days";
if($_GET['duration'] == "1"){
$duration = "1 day";
}
if($_GET['duration'] == "Forever"){
$duration = "forever";
}
$temp = 0;
if($expire > time()){
$temp = 1;
}
$body = "This automated message has been sent to notify you that your account has been banned $duration.  To appeal this ban, click on Irc from the menu on the homepage and ask to speak to a moderator.  If this ban is temporary, your account will be reinstated automatically at the appropriate time";
newPm($id, 3017, $title, $body);
$msgCount = $_GET['msg'] + 1;
$db->query("UPDATE ibf_members SET ban_level = $level, tempbanned = $temp, banned = 1, ban_expire='$expire', ban_reason='". $_GET['reason']."', ban_by='". $name."' WHERE id=$id") or die(mysql_error());
?>
<center><b>User banned!</b> (<a href="index.php?code=plyrmgmt">Back to Player Management</a>)</center>

I've written a script where it counts the page impressions on my website.

When a visitor lands on the page, it counts their impression and then sets a $_SESSION so that if they reload or return to the page it doesn't count it again. But the problem is it sometimes does.

Does this mean that the $_SESSION isn't being set probably? That's what it seems to be. And if so, what would be the reason for that?

Here's my basic code:

Code: [Select]
if(isset($_SESSION['userid'])){
     $userid = $_SESSION['userid'];
}
else{
     $userid = rand(1000, 10000000);
     $_SESSION['userid'] = $userid;
}

$date = date('Y-m-d');

$counters = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM counters
WHERE userid='$userid'
AND impressions='1'
AND date='$date'")
or die(mysql_error());

if(!mysql_num_rows($counters)){
     mysql_query("INSERT INTO counters
     (userid, impressions, date)
     VALUES('$userid', '1', current_date)")
     or die(mysql_error());
}

Im using func_get_args, but it gives an error?:

Too few arguments?, when its correct (as the number of %s = the number of values within $args)

<?php
function sprintify() {
global $urls;
$args = func_get_args();
$input = $args[0];
unset($args[0]);
return sprintf($urls[$input], implode(', ', $args));
}

echo sprintify('default', 46, 464, 46);

/*
For your information:
$urls['default'] = '%s/%s/%s';
*/
?>

Another issue with trying to work on somebody else's script (and on no sleep!) I've got this mess of a page I'm trying to manipulate to add a feature to.

When somebody goes to this page, it pulls all records. At the top, I added a way to refine the results by dates. That query works fine, I tested it in mysql. To avoid fighting with the original code, I created an if statement to create $query_selectAll. But when I put it in the page, it would just refresh with the same data. I echoed the query to make sure it is correct. Then I realized that there was another query, $query_selectAllItems,  further down the page that was generating the results, and none of what I was doing made a difference. But I'm not sure why it's ignoring my query or how to work around this. I tried deleting the query $query_selectAllItems, thinking it would take mine, because it ends with the same: $result_all

$result_all = mysql_query($query_selectall);
or
$result_all = mysql_query($query_selectAllItems);



Code: [Select]
<?php
require_once('calendar/classes/tc_calendar.php');
include("include/auth.php"); 
include("include/conn.php"); 
@$a_row = mysql_fetch_array($result);
// I added this if statement in to get my POST results, without having to make changes to the GET results he made.
if (isset($_POST['view'])){

$view=$_POST['view'];
} else {
$view=$_GET['view'];
}


if ($view=="All") {
$query_selectall = 'select * from tbl_registration';
echo $query_selectall;
}
elseif ($view=="dated") {
$mydate = isset($_REQUEST["date5"]) ? $_REQUEST["date5"] : "";
$end_date = isset($_REQUEST["date6"]) ? $_REQUEST["date6"] : "";
$query_selectall = "SELECT * FROM tbl_registration WHERE reg_timestamped BETWEEN STR_TO_DATE('$mydate', '%Y-%m-%d')  AND STR_TO_DATE('$end_date' , '%Y-%m-%d')";
echo $query_selectall;
}

else {
$query_selectall = "select * from tbl_registration where category='$view'";

echo $query_selectall;
}

$result_all = mysql_query($query_selectall);
@$numRows_all = mysql_num_rows($result_all);

I'm trying to implement an email activation method for my registration script. For that I need the last inserted id straight off the query.

This is how the part of my script looks like:


// write into database
$query = sprintf("INSERT INTO user (user_id, firstname, lastname, nickname, password, email, dob, doj, random, activated) VALUES (' ', '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s', '%s', now(), '$random', '0')",
mysqli_real_escape_string($dbc, $firstname),
mysqli_real_escape_string($dbc, $lastname),
mysqli_real_escape_string($dbc, $nickname),
mysqli_real_escape_string($dbc, $password),
mysqli_real_escape_string($dbc, $user_email),
$dob);

echo $lastid = mysqli_insert_id($dbc) or die (mysqli_error($dbc));


The query itself WORKS, the data gets inserted correctly, the scripts dies right at the die of mysqli_insert_id.

When I take away the "or die", then I always get printed out a 0 when trying to register, THOUGH the data entered into the registration page gets inserted correctly into the database as said.

I've read on w3schools.com, that the connection ($dbc) is OPTIONAL in mysqli_insert_id($dbc), because it automatically takes the last active connection, but when I leave it empty I get an error saying that it needs at least one parameter.

I must be doing something wrong, if you need more of the script let me know.

Since the scripts dies at the die, I didn't post anything below, and everything above is just if statements to check the entered data.

Hello all, I'm trying to clean up some user input for my database but the mysql_real_escape_string function doesn't seem to work, and neither does addslashes(). I've browsed the net and made sure I'm connected to the database before the function is called. I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Here's the relevant part of the code:

Code: [Select]
<?php

mysql_connect("localhost","adminname","adminpassword") or die (mysql_error());
mysql_select_db("databasename") or die (mysql_error());

$comment=mysql_real_escape_string($_POST['commentbox']);

?>
...and then the result is put into the database along with some other data.

The database entry is correct, except, when I check the database or echo the result I get the same thing that was entered into 'commentbox'. For instance, if I enter "I am very 'confused' by this" into the box, the same string will be found in the database table. No slashes, just quotes. Anyone have an idea what's wrong with this? Because it all seems simple and correct but doesn't work.

I just started with php and made an image. But when I try to open it in my browser, it shows a broken image icon. I have put the font in the same folder as the .php file, but it doesn't work. Can somebody help me solve this problem?

Here is the code:
Code: [Select]
<?php
$font_path = "nakedchick.TTF";
$font_size = 30;

$img_number = imagecreate(300,50);
$backcolor = imagecolorallocate($img_number,0,162,255);
$textcolor = imagecolorallocate($img_number,255,255,255);

imagefill($img_number,0,0,$backcolor);
$number = " So your ip is $_SERVER[REMOTE_ADDR]? ";

ImageTTFText($img_number, $font_size,10,5,5,$number,$font_path,$textcolor);

header("Content-type: image/png");
imagepng($img_number);
?>

And also the files: (.php in attachment)

Here's my code: 

<?php
echo phpinfo();
$pass=password_hash ("password", PASSWORD_BCRYPT);
?>

I checked and I'm using php 7, so why do I keep getting this error?

I had it print out my php info so I could check..

https://pyro-creations.com/tester.php

I even read the manual and tried the examples and I still get those errors. How can I fix this?

[please use code tags.]

Hi everybody!

I'm creating a site and none of my php-code works.

I tried to do a simple php-code to test it but it doesn't work either.

The simple php-code:
<?php

echo "hello";

?>

Hey, I have made a audio button in dreamweaver and copied the code into my php panel:

<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/myname/audio/audio-player.js"></script>
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/media_folder/audio/player.swf" id="audioplayer1" height="24" width="290">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/media_folder/audio/player.swf">
<param name="FlashVars" value="playerID=audioplayer1&soundFile=http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/media_folder/audio/Reconstructed Ancient Egyptian Melody.mp3">
<param name="quality" value="high">
<param name="menu" value="false">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
</object>

However once I press save, all that is saved is:
<script language="JavaScript" src="http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/myname/audio/audio-player.js"></script>
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/media_folder/audio/player.swf" id="audioplayer1" height="24" width="290">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.MYWEBSITE.com/media_folder/audio/player.swf">

The audio button works however because the code which includes the mp3 file never saves, it can never find the audio file. Can anyone tell me why the audio file part of the code doesn't save?

Thanks.
