Issues with phpform v3.0 BETA

[Abbas Qaizar]

Dear List Members,
Is anyone used phpformgenerator v3.0 BETA ? I have tried several times but it displays the following messages …..it seems that while compiling zip file (config.inc.php) is missing somewhere …can anyone advise or help me on this ??
------------------------Errors Displayed after filling the form-----------------

Warning: main(config.inc.php) : failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mustafac/public_html/form/tmp/persistent/form174724/processor.php on line 5

Warning: main(config.inc.php) : failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/mustafac/public_html/form/tmp/persistent/form174724/processor.php on line 5

I would greatly appreciate some swift and positive reply in this regard.

The config file is typically meant to contain more sensitive db, username, and password information.  If you have this line in your processor.php file yet it was not included in the zip package you received just delete this line from the processor.php file. 
If the config file was included then you just need to make sure it is in the right place and that the include statement in the processor.php file has the right path information to find the file.

Hi tnteveret1
First of all I would like to thank you for posting a reply on my problem.
As per your email, I checked and found that the processor.php had that line

---

include("config.inc.php");

which I removed, saved the new file with same name and extension and uploaded to the server.
After punching the dummy data in 2 columns when I clicked the SUBMIT button, my browser displayed the following error.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/godhrawa/public_html/tmp/persistent/form175188/processor.php on line 1
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

I have checked several times but couldn't diagnose the problem.

Can you please help me to rectify this problem as I need to upload the form asap.

Thanks.

This means you either have a syntax error or you have a variable name that starts with a number.
${some number character}{anything else}
when all variables should be
${some alpha character}{anything else}

Dear tnteveret1,
Thanks for your swift reply once again. I couldn't find the error so I am forwarding the processor.php file here for your kind review.
Please let me know what could be the problem or should I create the new form. Also advise, if I create this form using UBUNTU (Linux) do you think it would give all these errors which I am experiencing ???

---------processor.php-----------------------(after removing include (config.inc.php)-------------------

<?php

$where_form_is="http://".$_SERVER.strrev(strstr(strrev($_SERVER),"/"));

$link = mysql_connect($db_host,$db_user,$db_pass);
if(!$link) die ('Could not connect to database: '.mysql_error());
mysql_select_db($db_name,$link);
$query = "INSERT into `".$db_table."` (field_1,field_2) VALUES ('" . $_POST . "','" . $_POST . "')";
mysql_query($query);
mysql_close($link);

mail("abbas@mustafacomputers.com","phpFormGenerator - Form submission","Form data:

");

include("confirm.html");

?>

Awaiting your reply.

There is nothing wrong with this file so maybe what you posted to your site has some extra characters in line 1.
The other thing you can do is take out the "$where_form_is" line since it is not used.

[Abbas Qaizar]

Dear tnteveret1
Thanks once again for your kind reply.

Still no luck with that removal of "$where_form_is" line ………..

Have you used this v3.0 BETA ? Did you encounter such problems while Zipping the final layout of the form ??? I am using Windows XP at home ……can this be the problem ??? Should I try Ubuntu (Linux) ????

Please advise soon as time is running out for me.

Thanks & Regards

I have used 3.0 many times without any issues.  If you want to zip up your entire form and send it to me in an email I will evaluate what you have.  I'm not sure what else you can do.

[Abbas Qaizar]

Dear tnteveret1,
Thanks for your reply.
What should I send ? That ZIP file ? Or should I create a new form and then zip it and send it to you ?

Awaiting your reply.

I'm offering to help you fix a form you intend to use.  If you want this help, zip up the one you intend to use.  I would need the form.html and processor.php file.  I can copy all the rest from an existing form. 

[Abbas Qaizar]

Dear tnteveret1,
Thanks for your kind and swift replies.
Here you go ……I am using forum for the 1st time so no idea how to send the attachment here …..sending you files seperately.
