Is this the stone age old postgres DBMS or are
we talking about the more recent postgresSQL?

Hello,
I need a source function example for extracting a blob field from a

Meanwhile I got the hint, that the IIS does not accept mounted drive
letters. The path to the other machine (\\server\path1..) must be used
instead. I didn't test it so far.

I don't want the user to enter a login&pw when accessing the files.
Wouldn't it be possible to grant the IUSR_<localhost> access to the
directory on the other machine?

I have gotten this to work by supplying a full server path, ie

//server-name/path/

Mapped drives do not translate well.

You also have to give the account the server is running under access to the
server.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] accessing files from mapped drive from another server


Hello NG,

I need to access files via PHP from another local server. For
security-reasons I need to access them throught their physical path (e.g.
C:\path\file.txt) and not through a virtual path (e.g.
http://domain/path/file.txt). Therefore I mounted a drive ("F:") to access
those files (e.g. F:\path\file.txt) however this won't work. For php this
mounted path simply seems not to exist.

both servers : win 2k
IIS5, PHP 4.3

Anyone any hints?

Thanks,
Marc

Of course IIS does accept mapped drive letters. When you map your drives you
have to check the option "Verbindung bei Anmeldung wiederherstellen"
(Something like "restore the mapping on session start").

Below is a php script which have been tested on a mapped drive (x:):

<?php

// get the size of a file

$filename = "x:\\12.php";

echo readfile($filename);

?>

Hi all,


When you parse a file using the command "php.exe -f c:\myfile.php > c:\myfile.htm" , what command is required to set a variable. Example: In IE addressbar, when i type(doesn't matter what server i use) : http://localhost/myfile.php?thevariable=anyvariable, the "myfile.php" file is now parsed with indicated variable. But if i launch "php.exe -f c:\myfile.php?thevariable=anyvariable > c:\myfile.htm" , the output file (c:\myfile.htm) contains one line: No input file specified.

How can i make it work, without using a webserver ?

Read up on PHP's commandline features in the manual and the user contributed notes for some valuable time-saving insights:

Just installed PHP on a brand new W2k3 Server, and it works flawlessly, but
all the scripts are EXTREMELY slow.

Migrating the site from a Win2000 box, and everything was perfect, so I
don't believe it's the code.

Anyone else run into this?

I have set up a site using PHP that works fine when using apache.  Under
IIS, I get to the initial logon page, but after clicking anything I get the
HTTP 405 - Resource not allowed error.  If I go to the site by typing the
URL with the default file name (index.php) attached to the end, then
everything works fine.  Is there some sort of redirect problem.  I've
followed all the installation instructions and I have other PHP sites on the
same server that are configured the same way but run fine.  I'm at a loss???
Thanks for any help you can give!

I am currently working on an application that needs to break out invoice
totals by age.  This is a sample line item:

2/7/2004    ...   $456.89

Current Total :  Over 30 Days : Over 60 Days : Over 90 days

How can I determine the number of days from the current date?  I should be
able to handle the rest.

Thanks in advance!
Ron
