[PHP-WIN] Re: can't view php
It looks like your web server hasn't been told to handle php files the way the are intended to. which web server are you using? check the php manual for installation advice - and perhaps also the web server's.

Re: [PHP-WIN] Connecting to a remote database
further on you should tell your DBMS that not only local scripts (users), but also external users may access your database. this is done by modifying the table "db" in the database "mysql". with this table you can control which hosts may access your dbs. the simplest but also most risky way is to set host = % and db = %. db = "DB" and host = "your.remote.machine" (or for several domains or IP-ranges) would be safer already (the rest of the fields/permissions to be set per row are mostly self-explaining).

[PHP-WIN] Re: Apache 2.0.35 & php 4.2.0 RC4 includes
Have you set up PHP based on php.ini-recommended? Look out for the include_path directive in your php.ini(-recommended) and remove the semi-colon at the beginning of the line. I assume you're used to provide the full path for every file to be included include("../my_include_files/inc_file.php"); I just set up php 4.1.2 and encountered the same "problem". I guess include_path='.;c:\php4\pear' is the default build-in php include path. So you have to override it using the php.ini directive. (In your case the important part in this directive is probably the period !?)

[PHP-WIN] php 4.1.2 / $_SESSION
hi folks i'm just about to experiment with the new handling of session vars ($_SESSION[...]). now if i start with session_start(); $_SESSION["remember_me"] = "steff"; session_save_close(); // tested with and without this function call , the var value won't be set correctly. on a following page print($_SESSION["remember_me"]); doesn't print anything. even a print_r($_SESSION); only shows Array (). i admit i am fairly confused by information on register_globals (which is set to on in my php.ini) etc. up to now i have worked with session_start(); $remember_me = "steff"; session_register("remember_me"); which still works great. i'm working on w2k/php4.1.2/apache1.3.22. the session.[...] settings in my php.ini correspond those in php.ini-recommended. i read about a bug(?) in connection with php4.1.2. and IIS5 (http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.session.php, posted on 01-Apr-2002). any known problems with apache (or php itself)? updating to 4.2 is no alternative (as posted on 07-Apr-2002 on the same page) since i have to respect some provicer-side dependencies ;-) TIA for your comments steff -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
[PHP-WIN] Surprises with PHP4/IIS?
Hi folks Up to now I always worked with PHP/Apache (Unix, Linux, Win; CGI, Module). Now a customer of mine would like to subscribe for a PHP/IIS hosting offer. What surprises, exceptions, and special cases (compared to Apache solutions) do I have to take into consideration when I agree with the customers proposal?
