[phpesp-general] Segmentation fault

[David L. <lio...@co...>]

Greetings --

I'm having a peculiar problem logging in to the admin panel. I can take 
surveys without problems. When I attempt to access the admin panel, by 
going to http://myserver/phpESP, the browser doesn't find a page to 
display and /var/log/apache/error.log shows

[Mon May  3 19:00:03 2004] [notice] child pid 3276 exit signal 
Segmentation fault (11)
[Mon May  3 19:00:03 2004] [notice] child pid 3273 exit signal 
Segmentation fault (11)

The processes killed are apache processes that were running at the time 
-- they segfault, and a couple of new apache processes take their place.

At the same time, /var/log/mysql.log shows that the database opens as it 
should:

040503 19:00:02      29 Connect     phpesp@localhost on
                                 29 Init DB       phpesp
                                 30 Connect     phpesp@localhost on
                                 30 Init DB       phpesp

Browsing to http://myserver/phpESP/admin/test.php also works fine -- 
details below. I also append some error messages I get when starting mysql.

I had this working in February and March. What could be the problem?

Cheers,
David

Re: [phpesp-general] phpESP -- TOC ???

[Matthew G. <gr...@mu...>]

You want a page that would list all the auto-publish links,
http://yoursite/phpESP/public/survey.php?name=surveyname
for:
1. All active surveys? 
2. All active surveys for the logged in designer? 

Both are doable with a little work, but 1. would expose surveys that
some designers don't want public and 2. would require a designer account
to be used.  I've considered, on the "status" management page, changing
the name column fields to a URL that points to its auto-publish'ed
location when the status of the survey is active.  Would that help you
at all?

[phpesp-general] phpESP -- TOC ???

[<JRh...@ao...>]

Here's my question -- there is going to be one person creating surveys for 
high school kids to enter results for, or to encourage others to fill out... but 
the thing is...no one is very computer literate and would know what to do 
with the links after clicking FINISH.

Is there a way after "ACTIVATING" the survey, to have a .php page which 
displays "ACTIVE" surveys that people can 'PICK" which ones to take?

For example, I have a desinger account, they can make surveys...whenever they 
are made and it is activated...it automatically is listed on this .php page..


this way, I won't have to keep changing the link for "Enter Survey Results" 
instead it just goes to a page showing most recent or all active surveys, and 
they pick the appropraite one.


Is this possible????

RE: [phpesp-general] Retrieving list of surveys dynamically

[Bill F. <bil...@cr...>]

I did that initially and found that a status of 1 corresponded to an
active survey, but when someone else created a survey and activated it,
it had a status of  9.  I'm wondering if the type of designer
(superuser, etc.) has something to do with it.

Off the top of my head, I don't know how the status states relate.  All
you should have to do is create a survey, then query it's state as you
change it from, editing->testing->active->archive.

RE: [phpesp-general] Retrieving list of surveys dynamically

Brian, thanks for your input, but that add-on is a little overkill for
what I need. I have already written a short script to pull the surveys
based on the value of the status column in the survey table.  I just
need to know what the possible status values are and what they mean. 

Thanks,

Bill

Every shared hosting environment is going to be at least a little
different, so some configuration tweaking will be likely no matter what
client you choose.

[phpesp-general] shared hosting config

[Thomas H. <th...@co...>]

Hi,

A year or so ago I installed phpESP on a client's website (a standard 
shared PHP/Mysql hoster, NOT a standalone in-house server ). As I recall 
I had to change a ton of paths, etc, to get it working - is it (the 
latest phpESP code) still this way? If it is, is there an FAQ out there 
somewhere that details the latest procedure?

Barring that, does anyone know if there's another PHP web survey tool 
out there that supports shared hosting arrangements by default?

Thanks much,

T Hebert

Is there a way for a respondent to view the results of the survey?  In

results after he/she completes a survey?
 
Thanks,

Re: [phpesp-general] Survey: Domain Recording, Required Fields

[James E. F. <jf...@uv...>]

Hmm, I thought the message was in red, I guess it depends on the CSS 
file (style) you're using.  You can change the content (add numbers) of 
the error message in the response_check_required() method in the 
espresponse.inc library file.  You can change the presentation 
(red/bold) of the message in the CSS file you are using via the 
'message' class (or just switch stylesheets).

Perhaps you should enter a "feature request" on the sourceforge tracker 
for phpESP, suggesting that the 'message' class in the default 
stylesheet use a more prominent style. (M. Gregg, want to tweak 
default.css?)

Already on by default, though the information is not reported on any of 
the existing report/results pages.  For non-authenticated surveys, the 
IP address is recorded in the 'username' field of the 'response' table.

This is the normal behavior, you should see a message in red at the top 
of the survey.  You are seeing something different?

[phpesp-general] Survey: Domain Recording, Required Fields

[John G. <joh...@sb...>]

Greetings:

I have two questions, I appreciate your answers to one or both:

- Domain Recording.  Is there a way to record IP addresses/domains as a
field on each survey response?  I am not having survey users login at
this time, but want the ability to record the locations from which
survey responses are coming in.  

- Required Fields.  I have made a user's response required on a specific
questions on my recent survey. If the user does not enter that
information, the form is reposted.  I would like a message to appear, in
red, that states to fill in all required fields, perhaps even large red
marks next to the overlooked questions.  

Please send instructions; I searched through the archives, but could not
locate information about the above issues.

Thanks, John

Ron,

This is a common problem and a question frequently asked on this list.  For 
clues go here: http://phpesp.sourceforge.net/ and search the archives of 
both mailing lists for key words.

It's something in your setup.

You're host probably is running php in CGI mode.  Check the mailing list
archives for this, if Sourceforge happens to have the archives up. It
has been answered before.

[phpesp-general] Retrieving list of surveys dynamically

[Bill F. <bil...@cr...>]

I would like to retrieve a list of active surveys from the database to
displayed on my web site, so when a new survey is activated it is
automatically added to my site.  I'm assuming I would need to perform a
query on the survey table to find all the surveys with a specific value
in the status column, but I don't know what the status values correspond
to.  Can anyone help me out?  

Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi phpesp-general,

Set up phpesp (1.6.1) on my server. When I try to log in I get a box
that asks for a username and password. I type in the default
(root/esp) and it won't let me in. If I click cancel, I get a 401
Unauthorized - [ Incorrect User ID or Password, or your account has
been disabled/expired. ] Any suggestions? TIA

Re: [phpesp-general] back button and users/groups?

[Christopher K. <ck...@im...>]

Thanks James.  My way around this was to modify the access info for the 
survey and allow the respondent group that I created a max responses of 800 
-- which I figured would give me some slack for the 600 people who would be 
responding.  It is working pretty well.  Our problem was that the target 
group for this survey has a not insignificant amount of churn, and we do 
not have a support staff for technical issues, so we figured that it would 
be better to deal with a single login for everyone.  Any identifying 
information that we would need could then be solicited in the survey itself.

It is good to know about the forward/backward behavior though.  The main 
problem reported has been that they hit their browser back button to review 
answers and everything disappears.  I will just have to remember to tell 
them not to hit back in the instructions next time.

Cheers,

--chris

Re: [phpesp-general] back button and users/groups?

[James E. F. <jf...@uv...>]

Chris,

I'm not exactly sure if I follow, but if you intend for all 600 people 
to login as "person", I don't think phpESP will do what you expect.  You 
will end up with 1 result (the last one entered).  What are you trying 
to achieve?  I think the best solution (guessing your needs) would be to 
make a public survey, but restrict access via Apache (htaccess).

As far as back/forward, each user has one response in an authenticated 
survey, and back/forward will load results from that one response.  So 
yes, using back/forward with the scenario you describe will allow one 
person to see another's responses (and overwrite them).

In short, do not give multiple people the same username/password!
