Wojtku,
check if you've changed correct php.ini (look for all
php.ini in your machine). Sometimes by mistake you've
got more than one php.ini in different dirs and edit
not the appropriate one.

with php's mail() funciton you can send to multiple recipents via the
headers. just build the headers so it will BCC to everybody at once.
one word of caution, you can only have a header that is 5kb or
smaller.
otherwise php will start truncating the header. Found that out the
hard
way.
so, just build a big header and send out 300 at a time.

It's not like the messages will not still be placed in the job queue, or that the
server will not have to parse each address one by one, if they're in the Cc or
BCc header: you may as well place the addresses in the To: field, separated by
commas for all the difference it will make.
Sending them out in lumps of 100s is likely to be more server-friendly, though.
Can you schedule the equivalent of a Cron job on IIS?
Have you experimented with the PHP 'sleep' and 'usleep' functions? Maybe you
can give the server time to catch its breath this way...

I strongly disagree with putting all recipients in the To: field,
you just dont want to give out all other peoples mail-addresses
when they recieve the mail. That's why a Bcc: field exists (blind carbon
copy) :)

Part of my site is PHP based the other part is HTML. I want to certain parts
of the site to only be available to users with valid passwords.
The current solution uses a .htaccess file, where the user has to enter
valid username and password to gain access. This is fine but pretty basic,
the user must know the url in the first place.
I would like one entry point redirecting specific users to the particular
part of the site they have access to. I thought about session management and
again this would work fine if all sub sites were PHP based, but this not the
case as some site will be HTML.
Is there another solution or an easy workaround?

I think so.
I work with php 4.1.0 on IIS 5 (Windows 2000) with php_mssql.dll and
php_oracle.dll and all it's ok. We have done some tests with Mercury
LodeRunner with many SQL requests at the same time and we noticed some
memory leak but it was IIS fault ! PHP is, in my opinion, stable with
these dll.

Hello all,
I am running Xitami together with PHP 4.1 and mySQL on a Win2k
computer for locally testing websites ... everything seems to work
fine, except for a bit of a strange thing I encountered now .
When running the phpinfo() to get all the values for the system
variables etc ... the PHP_SELF variable is blank/empty .... it should
normally return the URL of the webpage from where you call the
phpinfo () function or the variable itself.
Anyone have an idea where the mistake might be? some Xitami server
setting somewhere? perhaps a setting in the php.ini configuration?
Any help is much appreciated. Thanks!
God bless you with His grace and peace
Wolfgang

Does _SERVER["PHP_SELF"] under "PHP Variables" have a value?
/Martin

Hello Martin,
>Does _SERVER["PHP_SELF"] under "PHP Variables" have a value?
just as empty as the PHP_SELF ... :-(
Also empty is _SERVER["PATH_INFO"],
_SERVER["PATH_TRANSLATED"]
_SERVER["DOCUMENT_ROOT"]
are both returning the proper directories.
God bless you with His grace and peace

Hi everyone,
I've got the problem with the PHP_SELF question solved ... someone
did supply me with some code that "did the trick". If anyone is
interested, here it is:
___________________________________
// Under Apache $PHP_SELF is needed, under Xitami it is $SCRIPT_NAME
// Find out based on which one has ".php" in it.
if (ereg ("\.php", $SCRIPT_NAME)) $CONSTANT_SELF = $SCRIPT_NAME;
else $CONSTANT_SELF = $PHP_SELF;
$CONSTANT_SELF = str_replace ("\\\\", "/", $CONSTANT_SELF);
Then just use $CONSTANT_SELF
____________________________________
A different error message keeps coming up though which concerns
"sessions" and which I have no clue why this is happening ... it is
this:
Warning: open(/tmp\sess_9f1832e85d3853950d3467fac55b1d75, O_RDWR)
failed: No such file or directory (2) in Unknown on line 0
Warning: Failed to write session data (files). Please verify that the
current setting of session.save_path is correct (/tmp) in Unknown on
line 0
I've not had experience with php 4.1 and sessions ... is there a
folder and file I need to "manually" create so that the php script
then can write session data to it?
Again, I appreciate your help ... either on the list or off list (is
that would be more appropriate, seeing that my questions perhaps are
too much of the "beginner / newbie" type.
God bless you with His grace and peace

What should I do to have support of XML-RPC on the PHP compile for Windows ?
Is it included in the compile ?
Is an extension ? Which one ?
It seems to be a compilation options in linux.

I am trying to bring PHP 4.1.1 up on a Dell Poweredge 1500, running
Windows 2K, SP2 and IIS 5. I have it running on an almost identical test
machine right beside it. However, when I try to restart the server, the
ISAPI filter fails to load, and I get a message in the Event Viewer
saying -
Source: W3SVC
Category: None
Type: Error
Event ID: 14
User: N/A
Description:
The HTTP Filter DLL C:\WINNT\system\php4isapi.dll failed to load. The
data is the error.
For additional information specific to this message please visit the
Microsoft Online Support site located at:
http://www.microsoft.com/contentredirect.asp.
I have the php4isapi.dll file located in the winnt/system directory
(Although I also have a coopy in the system32 directory and I get the
same error) I have copied all of my .dll's from the php/dll and
php/extension folder over to both the system and system32 directory and
have the php.ini file in the winnt directory. For now I have installed
it as a cgi, but I've been told there are a lot of speed benefits gained
from running as an ISAPI filter. Can anyone help me out, or set me
straight if I don't need ISAPI?
Thanks!

I am porting a website from a Unix server to IIS 5.0 on W2K Advanced
Server. The PHP code currently is using Shared Memory calls. My
developer tells me the information is shmop-based.
Here's a sample of the code. The site is not functioning as it's
supposed to and I believe this may be the reason. Does anyone have
suggestions? I'm a newbie to PHP.
<?
$sharedmemory_pclass = true;
define(SHMEM_INDEX_ID, 0x77770);
define(SHMEM_SESSION_ID, 0x77771);
define(SHMEM_LOCKSEM, 0x77772);

define(SHMEM_SHARED_SIZE, 1048576);
define(SHMEM_SEQUENCE_KEY, 1);
define(SHMEM_INDEX_KEY, 2);
define(SHMEM_COLLECT_KEY, 3);
class SharedMemory {
var $_IndexSem;
var $_IndexShr;
var $sessionShr;
var $next_collect; /* Timestamp of next expected garbage collect */
function SharedMemory()
{
//try to create the memory shares
// 2001-03-05 JvO: this does not seem to work; let's just hope the
segments are detached at process exit
// register_shutdown_function("_onExit");
$this->_IndexShr = @shm_attach(SHMEM_INDEX_ID, SHMEM_INDEX_SIZE);
$this->sessionShr = @shm_attach(SHMEM_SESSION_ID,
SHMEM_SHARED_SIZE);
$this->next_collect = @shm_get_var($this->_IndexShr,
SHMEM_COLLECT_KEY);
if ($this->next_collect <= 0)
$this->next_collect = 0x7fffffff; /* way into the future :) */
}
function destroy() {
@shm_detach($this->_IndexShr);
@shm_detach($this->sessionShr);
}
