How can execute a shell command through PHP? A small example will be great!
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
exec()
system()
For more detailed info on using these php functions, go to php.net here:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.exec.php
Hope this puts you on the right track.
Good luck,
Nicole

I am doing an exex on Windows to power my mp3 jukebox, something like
this:
exec('winamp.exe M100101.mp3');
You may have to tweak around and check the php.net docs. Pay close
attention to the part about sending the output to null.

Hi NG

Thanks

Mark,
I seem to be jumping in part-way, but...
I seem to have isolated my problem. My code will only work with
non-numerical tables for some reason, which is kind of a pain.
=Why do you say that?
Is there any way to use php to connect to a mysql table that has a
numerical value as its name (1,2,3 etc)?
=Check out http://www.mysql.com/doc/L/e/Legal_names.html

Haha, that's what I'm saying!
Why do people need to be so ambiguous and beat around the bush? Hehe.

Crizz,
You have had two good answers to your original question. One telling you
to turn errmsgs completely off, and another telling you how to turn them
on for debugging. Since then the water has been muddied by all sorts of
'jumping in'.
If you have completed your debugging (my interpretation) and want to run
a 'production' system that won't toss out strange-looking msgs to users,
then stick with the former advice. If you are still in development and
need all the advice you can get, then stick with Alain's advice. You
hadn't stated where you are at, so both extremes of answer were 'valid'
responses! Trouble is talk of "novices" confused the issue...
Given that you now state that errmsgs (to users) should be turned off,
but want to see problems when they do arise, then push error-reporting
to its lowest level and initiate/up-rate the logging facility (one or
two more lines further down the php.ini).
Regards,

Could you post the code you are trying to use to do this? It may just be a
coding issue and not MySQL at all.

Sure. The database is called movies1db, username is movies, password is
database. This definitely could be an issue with how i set up the user or
something. Here's the code for one form I'm trying:
-------
<html>
<body>
<?php
if ($submit) {
// process form
$db = mysql_connect("localhost", "movies","database");
mysql_select_db("movies1db",$db);
$sql = "INSERT INTO tbl1 (name,location,length,size,description) VALUES
('$name','$location','$length','$size','description')";
$result = mysql_query($sql);
echo "Thank you! Information entered.\n";
} else{
// display form
?>
<form method="post" action="<?php echo $PHP_SELF ?>">
Name:<input type="Text" name="name"><br>
Location:<input type="Text" name="location"><br>
Length:<input type="Text" name="length"><br>
Size:<input type="Text" name="size"><br>
Description:<input type="Text" name="description"><br>
<input type="Submit" name="submit" value="Enter information">
</form>
<?php
} // end if
?>
</body>
</html>
------
Here's more info. I checked my apache error log and found that when I open
that page, I get the following errors:
[Mon Mar 04 12:14:27 2002] [error] PHP Warning: Undefined variable: submit
in c:\homepage\phptest\dataform2.php on line 11
[Mon Mar 04 12:14:27 2002] [error] PHP Warning: Undefined variable:
PHP_SELF in c:\homepage\phptest\dataform2.php on line 37
I get the same errors when I hit the submit button. Hope this helps!

OK, go to your php.ini file
and change your error_reporting level to this:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
See if that at least yields different "error" or "warning" messages.
Let me know what happens.

Another thing I suggest is, instead of relying on the value from $submit
(your submit button), create a hidden field and call it "action" or whatever
you want that makes sense to you. This hidden field will store the value of
the action you will take when the form is submitted. For example, you can
call it "action" and give it the value "submit."
Ex:
<input type="hidden" name="action" value="submit">
Then, in your php, you can do this:
If ( $action == "submit" )
## do your insert query here
}
else {
## display the form
}
Good luck,
Nicole

Also, for the sake of testing, replace <?=$PHP_SELF;?> with the actual
script name.

Ok, making progress. My updated code is below. with full error checking, i
get no errors on loading the page. I do get an error when i attempt to
submit. It does not recognize $action as being a variable:
[Mon Mar 04 13:46:33 2002] [error] PHP Warning: Undefined variable: action
in c:\homepage\phptest\dataform2.php on line 10
This seems to be the root of the problem. If I enter a URL as
http:/..../whatever.php?me=hello, shouldnt $me be a variable equal to the
string "hello" in whatever.php? I cant get this to work. There seems to be
some problem with my settings such that it doesnt recognize variables that
arent defined explicitely (like $me="hello" in the code). Could there be
some setting in an ini file or config file for apache that needs to be
changed? ALMOST THERE (i think!).

if you are using a high version of php (say 4.1.1) you will need to
reference variables in the url by $_GET['me'] and post variables by
$_POST['action']

Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] cannot write to mySQL database
Ok, making progress. My updated code is below. with full error checking, i
get no errors on loading the page. I do get an error when i attempt to
submit. It does not recognize $action as being a variable:
[Mon Mar 04 13:46:33 2002] [error] PHP Warning: Undefined variable: action
in c:\homepage\phptest\dataform2.php on line 10
This seems to be the root of the problem. If I enter a URL as
http:/..../whatever.php?me=hello, shouldnt $me be a variable equal to the
string "hello" in whatever.php? I cant get this to work. There seems to be
some problem with my settings such that it doesnt recognize variables that
arent defined explicitely (like $me="hello" in the code). Could there be
some setting in an ini file or config file for apache that needs to be
changed? ALMOST THERE (i think!).

Woohoo, the problem seems to have been register_globals being off. In
reading the php.ini info about it, it sounds like having it on can be
dangerous. I tried following the instructions in the manual about using
variables with register_globals off but couldnt get it to work so i just
turned it on.

In that case, you probably could have accessed your variables like so:
$HTTP_POST_VARS["action"]
or $HTTP_GET_VARS["me"]
Depending on how the variables were submitted (POST or GET).

Where can I find a documentation about the PHP exploit regarding file
uploads that excludes the WIN32 version from this problem?
On e-matters security advisory
(http://security.e-matters.de/advisories/012002.html), this information is
not clear and what I can understand is that all servers running PHP are
vulnerable without the patch.
But on PHP.NET website we can only find the patch for Linux!!!
Please, I need an official report from PHP.net about this issue because my
ASP just disabled the file_uploads INI set while the patch for Win32 is
released.
Regards,

There are no known win32 exploits for this particular bug. At some point
we will have a Windows version of 4.1.2, but the Windows version always
lags behind by a bit. You will just have to wait.
As far as I am concerned, an ISP running a Windows web server has much
bigger problems than this particular tiny buffer overflow.

hi,
i am having a problem with mail() function being very slow but only on some
days. the network traffic on these days doesn't seem to be higher than
normal and the mail server (exchange server 5.5, SP4, located on another
machine) is working fine through outlook. i tried connecting to another mail
server and it was also very slow. i also tried using a non existent smtp ip
and it was very quick to realise it didn't exist. i am using php 4.1.1 with
apache 1.3.20 (win32). any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
athene

After finally having succeeded compiling php4.1.2 on my win2k-system
with vc++6.0 and even getting it (i.e. php.exe, php4ts.dll and
php4ts.lib) to work with apache1.3.23 i don’t know how to get on getting
t1lib in there.
Please help!
Do i have to start ./configure –with-t1lib=... in cygwin? Or can that
–with- stuff be done somewhere else as well?
I get the error:
$ ./configure

what’s wrong? And what then?
Thanx in advance,
Oliver!

Well here's the big problem:
configure: error: no acceptable cc found in $PATH
cc is the compiler so you need to make sure that the c++ compiler: is
believe it's cl.exe is in the enviroment variable PATH.

I'm having trouble reading cookies with ASP that are set with PHP's
setcookie() on a win2k (PHP 4.1.1) platform.
When setting a cookie on win2k using PHP, that cookie CANNOT be read by
either PHP or ASP running on that same win2k machine. If I set the cookie
using PHP (PHP 4.0.5) on a unix box, that cookie can be read by BOTH PHP and
ASP running on the win2k machine. It just seems like PHP can't write
cookies while running on windows.
Is there some special way to use PHP to write cookies on windows that I
don't know about?
