#10 can't make it work
I've installed itms on my intranet server, changed
config.php accrodingly (I hope) and tried to run it.
apache's error log intially printed the error:
Undefined variable: messages in
/data/www/intranet/itms/error_handler.php on line 60.
adding the line: include("toolbox.php") (I think)
solved the problem. Now there is another error: PHP
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare convert_date()
(previously declared in
/data/www/intranet/itms/toolbox.php:33) in /data/ww
w/intranet/itms/toolbox.php on line 33. Here I get
stopped and I don't know how to solve it.

VRKid (Paolo) -
I believe your second error is due to adding toolbox.php to be
included in error_handler.php.
Please revert your changed versions back to the original
copies and try the following for line 60 in error_handler.php:
FROM->
$messages = make_clean($messages);
TO->
$message = make_clean($message);
Let me know if your first error goes away after this change,
thanks,
-Matt
BTW: What version of PHP are you running?

Hi
thanx. Yes the error did go away. Now there are 2 more:
Undefined variable: user in
/data/www/intranet/itms/login.php on line 317, PHP Notice:
Undefined variable: pass in
/data/www/intranet/itms/login.php on line 317.

Ok, thanks for the update,
Can you let me know some info about the server you are
running ITMS on?
Specifically:
PHP Version, Apache Version, Operating System version, etc...
Also, in php.ini there is a Register Globals Directive, the
default value for newer versions of PHP is 'off', can you
verify that this is the case in your version?
thanks,

Alright, I've got something for you to try:
In login.php, you will see lines 58 and 59 call the extract
function.
below those calls add these two lines:
extract($_COOKIE);
extract($_SESSION);
I think that should do the trick, I'm not sure why it is
giving you errors, I know I tested my registered globals fix
on my linux box.
Anyways, let me know how this goes.
thanks,

Hi Matt
Sorry I thought I had post the versions of the software
<grin>
Here we go:
OS: Linux (Slackware 9)
web server: Apache (1.3.27) compiled with web_dav,
mod_security and php statically (call me a weirdo, but I
like to compile things statically)
PHP: 4.3.2 (latest and greatest stable).
apache+modules+php were compiled by me.
my php.ini indeed has the global register set to off (are
the entries in php.ini case sensitive?).
Did the 2 additions from below and here is what I get in the
error log now:
[Thu Jul 17 12:54:09 2003] [error] PHP Notice: Undefined
variable: _SESSION in /data/www/intranet/itms/login.php on
line 61
[Thu Jul 17 12:54:09 2003] [error] PHP Warning: extract():
First argument should be an array in
/data/www/intranet/itms/login.php on line 61

Paolo,
Thanks for your patience with this, and thank you for your
willingness to help me debug this problem.
What I am going to do is this:
When I get home tonight I will upgrade my PHP verison on my
linux box to 4.3.2 and see what I get as far as errors.
That way we are on the same page and I can attempt to fix
the problem without having to have you try 50 different code
changes before we figure out the best way to fix the problem.
I'll continue to provide you with updates on my progress.
thanks again,
-Matt

Ok, I've upgraded by RH Linux PHP to 4.3.2 and I don't get
any of the errors you've mentioned. When I configure my PHP
I use the following command:
./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=<path to apache>/bin/apxs
I believe this is the DSO (non-static) method of compiling
PHP, but I don't know enough about static vs. dynamic
installs of PHP to know if this is where the problem you are
experiencing lies.
I also verified that my register_globals directive is set to
Off in my php.ini file, so I know that should work. (I don't
think they are case-sensitive, but I never had to modify my
php.ini for my needs so I'm not totally sure)
So right now I'm stumpped, maybe you could send me the
output of your phpinfo() function on your server, create a
file with the php tags surrounded by the phpinfo function
like this:
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
I can compare it against mine and see if I can notice the
problem, otherwise if you have any ideas, I'm all ears.
thanks,

Hi Matt
going through phpinfo output I noticed that it claims that
the mysql api was 3.23.49 and the version of mysql running
right now is 4.0.13. might it be that this difference is the
one causing the problem?
Paolo
PS - I also sent you a private email concerning this issue
Logged In: YES
user_id=16945
Hi Matt
just recompiled php (4.3.2) and apache (1.3.28) the same way
but this time letting him find mysql 4.0.13 (at least that's
what phpinfo claims now) but the same problem persists. Any
ideas (maybe downgrading would solve this?

hi Matt
I found the following 2 URLs that might explain (for me
they were a mix of English and klingon):

Hi Paolo,
I use MySQL version 3.23, but I don't see why the MySQL
version would cause the errors you are getting.
What options to you supply on the command line when
configuring PHP to compile?
i.e. when I compile PHP I use the following:
./configure --with-mysql --with-apxs=<path_to_apache>/bin/apxs
thanks,
-Matt

Hi Matt
you compile it as a DSO, I prefer to compile it statically
into apache. My configure looks like this:
./configure --sysconfdir=/etc
--sharedstatedir=/usr/local/share --localstatedir=/var
--with-apache=../apache_1.3.28 --with-config-file-path=/etc
--with-openssl --with-mysql=/usr/local --with-pgsql=/usr/local
I also have the output of phpinfo(), but I don't want to
post it here. How can I send it to you?
Logged In: YES
user_id=222242
Send me an email at: mpalmerlee@users.sourceforge.net
with the phpinfo attachment, if you have problems sending to
that address let me know.
When I look at some of the manuals online it shows one
argument for configure being:
--activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
Do you need to have an activate-module line? I'm not by any
means a PHP configuration guru, but if other php stuff works
on your system then obviously PHP is working correctly.

Hi Matt
Yes. I do have the activate parameter in apache's
configuration. php wouldn't be compiled in if it's mentioned
as a parameter in apache's configure's command line. I also
sent you the phpinfo() output.

Ok, Paolo, thanks for the email, I have to wait until I get
home to compare your phpinfo to mine, meanwhile....
I had you try adding extract($_COOKIE); &
extract($_SESSION); in login.php before, can you remove the
call to extract($_SESSION); and leave in the
extract($_COOKIE); and see if your errors go away?
thanks for your patience on this,
-Matt

Hi Matt
Didn't help :( I still get:
[Wed Jul 23 04:15:47 2003] [error] PHP Notice: Undefined
variable: user in /data/www/intranet/itms/login.php on line 318

One thing I notice different between your phpinfo and mine
is the variables_order directive, my value is "EGPCS" and
yours is "GPCS", which from what I've read shouldn't cause
this undefined variables error, but I guess it's worth a
try, check out this page:
http://us2.php.net/manual/en/configuration.directives.php
If that doesn't change anything, I'll have to re-compile
apache/php as static like your env. and try to reproduce the
problem.
thanks,

Hi Matt
I did a little mistake. I copied the recommended and not
the dist one from php's source directory. I now copied the
dist one and things look better. I don't get the user and
pass not defined anymore, but I do get a segmentation fault
on child process.

Great to hear that those other errors go away, did you
revert back to the original login.php? (i.e. take out the
extract($_COOKIE); line I had you put in) If not I think
that must be the problem.
I wonder what was different in the recommended php.ini vs.
the dist php.ini that caused so much trouble?
Let me know if you still have problems after reverting back
to the original code,
thanks,
-Matt

Hi Matt
I still get segmentation fault after removing the extract
line that was added.
Logged In: YES
user_id=222242
Were you always getting the segmentation fault, or was it
after I was having you change stuff? I'm thinking there must
be something different either in PHP or ITMS that is causing
that seg. fault.
Let me know if there is anything else you can think of that
might be helpful,

Hi Matt
always. Every problem and doesn't matter which, it printed
the errors and than seg faulted. I thought that it simply
was php's way to close things when it gets an error.
