Can someone provide a good starting point and possible on-line tutorials for
using PHP, MySQL and CGI on a Win32 platform (Win32).  I already have some
degree of experience using Perl, MySQL and CGI and am evaluating the
benefits of PHP in this area.

Thanks
Frank






Hey Schmuck,

Just kidding. Bet you haven't heard that one before. LOL. :p

Try http://www.php.net/links.php there's a whole list of resources for
tutorials and code examples there. The PHP FAQ also has some comparison
between perl and asp, etc. That's at http://www.php.net/FAQ.php

Any advice on this would be much appreciated:

I am trying to send a simple email.  in the php file, i have entered:

<?php
mail ("[EMAIL PROTECTED]", "This is the Subject", "This is the message
body");
?>

when i load the page, i get the following:

Warning: Server Error in C:\inetpub\wwwroot/php/tests/test.php on line 2
test.php being the file containing the PHP mail code

this is the sendmail info in my php.ini file:

[mail function]
; For Win32 only.
SMTP = localhost ; for Win32 only

; For Win32 only.
sendmail_from = [EMAIL PROTECTED] ; for Win32 only


thanks,

pete






You need to change
SMTP = localhost ; for Win32 only
to
SMTP = MyMailhost.domain.edu ; for Win32 only

(MyMailHost being your mail service's server -> pop3.hotmail.com)
If you don't have that then you may need to install a mail service of 
your own ...
If you need to do that research the archieves I know I've seen a load of 
different free mail services and how to install (I didn't have to do 
that so I'm not going to try to tell you how to do it ...)

You need to have the GDlib installed. Here is a link that will set up
Apache, Mysql, php, and the GDlib on your win200 system. This is not ment
for actally hosting a commercial site yet. I wouldn't use it for that
wihtout some tweaking.

Hey Guys,
        I'm running Apache/PHP/Mysql on Win2k Pro. This is an error that
has happened first time with me..and it's so scary I just had to mail. I
access all my mysql from Php and often refer to the tables from the
command prompt. All of a sudden I am unable to read from some Mysql tables
and when I query "SELECT * FROM <tablename>" from the command prompt I get
an error (no. 127) saying "Unable to read table identifier". So has all my
table data gone??? Or can I retrieve it?? Why o why does this happen??
        Pleeeeeeeeeease HELP!

TIA,
Arjun.





Anybody know if there is a fix in the works for this or are they just
blaming IIS/MS and recommending a move to Apache?

Thanx Brian but I allready resolved the problem by switching the web server
from IIS 5 to Apache aparentrly IIS has problems setting cookies from PHP
scripts.

I'll still try your files and tell you what happened ok.

Later.

Can't say I know what the problem is, but here are two test files, that work
on my Windows 2000, IIS 5, SQL 7 machine. Let me know if you have a problem
with them and maybe we can find the problem.

Hi.

I am using my win98 machine as a dev box for a web/php application. I am
doing fairly frequent queries to the mysql instance, and every now and again
the connection between php and mysql drops and I can't reinstate it without
bouncing apache. Almost seems like there's a leak somewhere and all the
resources are getting used up. I have checked code for mysql_result_free()
and mysql_close() usage, and its all pretty clean.

Symptoms of the error are that php returns mysql_ errors consistently for
each call after failure.

Has anyone experienced this before? If so, I'd be grateful for any
workarounds.

Thanks in advance...

Mark Edwards.
