Summary: nextid() uses mysql_query

Initial Comment:
nextid() uses mysql_query() and mysql_fetch_array() 
instead of using DB_Sql's own error-checking functions.

So is this a bug?  It seems like it isn't.

I guess this is in the case of duplicating or moving data 
from one table to another. In that case, I would need to 
have two database objects - one to query the old table and 
the second to insert into the new table (if I tried to use 
only one object I would lose my select results) so I might 
as well nextid() with the second object.

I guess I could save all the data in an array, but then I 
don't see any reason not to get the id later when I'm 
looping through the array.

It does this so as to not trash the $this->Record array. The
script could conceivably be looping through this array and
using next_id() for each element!

Summary: nextid()'s lock() in db_mysql.inc

Initial Comment:
nextid() issues a table lock on the db_sequence table -
 this will release any previous locks. I do not 
believe that nextid() is competent to make that 
decision on its own. In most applications, I lock 
tables before modifying any data, do integrity and 
validity tests on the new data, and finally make the 
changes. Since I don't like throwing away auto-
incrementing ID #s, I don't call nextid() until right 
before the insert statement. Unfortunately, nextid() 
will release my other locks and compromise my efforts 
at data integrity.

If my methodology above is flawed I am willing to 
change it, but until persuaded otherwise I propose the 
following order for nextid(): 

1. check to see if an instance-level lock is in place
  1.1. if not, try to put a lock on the sequence table
      1.1.1. if successful, record that a local lock 
was used
      1.1.2. if unsuccessful, fail with current warning

2. get current id, increment it, write it to table 
(unmodified)

3. check for a local lock
  3.1 if so, release it


(Yes, this will cause problems in existing code where 
nextid() is used within a set of locked tables and the 
sequence table was not locked - the author was sloppy 
and overlooked the sequence table, s/he should fix the 
code.)

I don't know whether it's resolved. There's certainly
insufficient information there to track down the problem.
We'd need to see the template file and a sample directory
listing for starters. And some comments in the code
describing what it's trying to do would be nice. And I'm
afraid I know no French.

I'm unassigning this from myself, as I am unable to resolve
it. Perhaps we should put a time limit on these support
requests... surely the request would be redundant for one
reason or another after a week or two?

Personally I'd like to see the Support tracker on SF shut
down. People should be directed to the mailing list for
support. Lots more helpers willing and able to assist with
problems there. And email is much easier to use.

Richard,

If this is resolved, can you please close it. We can reopen it 
later if not. Sounds like an illegal offset 0 at line 130 error? 
Not sure which script though. More info would be good....

Summary: Incorrect DB select implementation

Initial Comment:
Within the DB_MYSQL file and other variants the 
mysql_select_db is placed inside the if the statement
which checks for an open link/chan, this means that if 
you connect to mysql outside of php using pconnect 
when php_lib tries to write to the session tables it thinks 
it has an open link/chan and assumes that it already 
has selected the correct database.

You will notice below that this implementation always 
executes the mysql_select_db regardless of if a 
connection exists or not. This forces selection of the 
correct phplib database.

To fix I have moded function as follows:

  /* public: connection management */
  function connect($Database = "", $Host = "", $User 
= "", $Password = "") {
    /* Handle defaults */
    if ("" == $Database)
      $Database = $this->Database;
    if ("" == $Host)
      $Host     = $this->Host;
    if ("" == $User)
      $User     = $this->User;
    if ("" == $Password)
      $Password = $this->Password;

    /* establish connection, select database */
    if ( 0 == $this->Link_ID ) {

      $this->Link_ID=mysql_pconnect($Host, $User, 
$Password);
      if (!$this->Link_ID) {
        $this->halt("pconnect($Host, $User, \) 
failed.");
        return 0;
      }

    }

    /* select database */
    if (!@mysql_select_db($Database,$this->Link_ID)) {
        $this->halt("cannot use database ".$this-
>Database);
        return 0;
    }

    return $this->Link_ID;
  }

This is not a bug. The correct implementation is to subclass 
DB_Sql and point it to the appropriate database. That way, 
the object's linkID will always point to the correct open 
link/channel to the correct database.

Summary: PHPLIB (is page_open() defined): No 

Initial Comment:
Hi

I am tryint to set up imp with my webserver, but I am getting a fatal error wheni am trying to run 
it.

I have set up horde and imp following the instructions precisely. My
test.php3 page in the horde directory lists the follwing configuration. 

Horde Versions

     Horde: 1.2.7 
     IMP: 2.2.7 

PHP Version

     PHP Version: 3.0.18 
     PHP Major Version: 3 
     PHP Minor Version: 18 
     PHP Version Classification: release 
     Your PHP3 version is recent. You should not have any problems with
Horde modules, provided that you have applied the patch(es) described in
     horde/docs/INSTALL. 

PHP Module Capabilities

     IMAP Support: Yes 
     LDAP Support: No 
     MySQL Support: Yes 
     PostgreSQL Support: No 

PHPLIB Configuration

     track_vars: Yes 
     PHPLIB (is page_open() defined): No 

Miscellaneous PHP Settings

     magic_quotes_gpc set to Off: Yes 
     magic_quotes_runtime set to Off: Yes 

I configured defaults.php3 with the setup.php3 script. The only thing I
do not have is ispell (so I left it blank). Perhaps somewhat unusual
also is that sendmail sits in an different location, in /usr/lib/, as I
have everything running on an SGI Irix machine (Irix 6.5.04) - and
that's where it puts sendmail. I also configured mysql with the script
provided - the username exists, and the "horde" database has been
created as per instructions. 

However, when I go to the
http://www.fractalgraphics.com.au/horde/index.php3
page,(www.fractalgraphics.com.au is my webserver) then click on the imp
link, I get the following error: 

Fatal error: Call to unsupported or undefined function page_open() in
mailbox.php3 on line 104

If I have a look at the mailpox.php3 script, the function on p 104 is as
follows: 

page_open(array('sess' => 'HordeSession'));

I get the same error when I try to open newuser.php3, i.e. go to
http://www.fractalgraphics.com.au/horde/newuser.php3 . The error points
toline 19, whhere the same function is accessed: 

page_open(array('sess' => 'HordeSession'));

I think the problem lies in the fact that my test.php3 script lists: 

PHPLIB (is page_open() defined): No 

But I can't seem to change it. 

Can anyone help me with this? 

Your help will be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks

Hugo

Hugo,

Have you included or required the necessary PHPLIB scripts 
somewhere in your scripts?

You will need to call prepend from somewhere....at some 
stage....preferably before you call page_open() ???

Summary: Cannot call mysql_pconnect() function

Initial Comment:
"Call to undefined function: mysql_pconnect()"

I'm running RedHat 7.2, Apache 1.3.22, PHP 4.0.6, 
PHPLib 1.7d, mySQL server 3.23.41  PHPlib seems to 
be working fine up until it tries to hit the db.  I was able 
to call phpinfo() without any trouble.  Most of the help 
I've found online so far points toward mysql support not 
being compiled in with apache, but phpinfo reports "--
with-mysql=shared,/usr" which I take to mean that it 
was compiled with all the right options.  Any help would 
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chip

I don't know what the "shared," in the configure is doing - I've 
always used "--with-mysql=/usr". For the generic MySQL 
support you can also do "--with-mysql". If you upgraded 
MySQL without recompiling PHP (and PHP was compiled 
with the specific MySQL client libraries) you'll need to 
recompile so PHP can get the new client libraries.

Summary: PHPLib: Templates with several pages

Initial Comment:
Hello. 
I`m a newbie in programming php, so please help me 
even my question may be very stupid :) 
I`d like to use the templates from the phplib for my 
webpage. I understood the example in the manual, so my 
test page runs. But my problem is, that I defined the 
title and the content once in an array. But if the 
user will see another content, I have to redefine the 
content and the title (in effect, I have to redefine 
the array 
$t->set_var(array("Title" => "Dies ist der Titel der 
Page", "BodyContend" => "Dies ist der Body 
Inhalt."));). But how can I implement this? 
I`d like a solution with several files wich contens 
the title and the content for each page. 
How can I do that?

PS: Please excuse my bad english, I normaly talk 
Swissgerman...

What about using a variable to hold the content?
You can try this:

$t->set_var(array(
   "Title" => $title, // or even this
   "Content" => ($user=='joe' ? $content1 : $content2)
));

Hi David,

The PHPLIB documentation is a useful resource and has 
excellent examples on doing just the sort of thing you require.

If you haven't already downloaded the documentation, you 
can download it from the phplib home page on sourceforge @ 
http://phplib.sourceforge.net/

As you can appreciate, we can also go so far as to point you 
in the right direction to get started, and will stop short at 
building your application for you.

HTH.

Summary: phplib, pear db, adodb benchmarks

Initial Comment:
Comparing ADODB with PhpLib, PEAR DB, Metabase and 
Native MySQL
Benchmark was to select 82 rows from the products 
table 200 times.
The tests were repeated 5 times. Connection times were 
excluded
from the benchmark. Lower values are better. All 
numbers are in 
seconds. 

MySQL	1.12 	1.12	1.17	1.15	1.14
ADODB	1.43	1.47	1.47	1.44	1.45
PhpLib	1.53	1.62	1.64	1.64	1.57   
PEAR	2.91	2.90	2.85	2.83	2.84
	(fetchInto)

(numeric columns)
M'base	4.99	4.72	4.71	4.71	4.72	(named 
columns)

        Average	 Overhead
MySQL	 1.14	  -
ADODB	 1.45	  27%
PhpLib	 1.60	  40%
PEAR	 2.87	 152% (fetchInto)
PEAR	 3.15	 176% (fetchRow)
M'base	 2.52	 296% (numeric cols)
M'base	 4.77	 318% (named cols)

I was still surprised at how slow some of the 
libraries were, even
though a code inspection had already given strong 
hints on the expected
performance of the class libraries. 

Methodology

Results on Pentium 800 Mhz running Win 2000, PHP 4.0.6 
ISAPI on IIS5 
with MySQL 3.23, all on the same machine. PEAR DB from 
PHP 4.0.6,
ADODB 1.40, PhpLib 7.2d and Metabase 1.57 were used. 

Code revised on 22nd October 2001. PhpLib tests added 
24th October 2001.

Source code for these tests is available from 
http://phplens.com/lens/adodb/

Initial Comment:
Hi, I was looking for a correction to the disappearing $, 
then I tried this version of templates.inc

But I found two errors:
- templates.inc->set_var still eats "$xx", where x is a 
literal
- templates.inc->set_var eats the \ in "\"

if you do the following:
$t->set_var(array(	"t1" => " $es ",       "t2" => " 
\23 " ));
the variables inside the template object will became:
t1="" and t2="$123".
t1 is clearly wrong.
t2 seems wrong too (I don't know the inner 
representation). After doing a $t->parse and a $t->p, in 
place of {t2} you will get a "$123" which is wrong.

Please post some code as an attachment which demonstrates
this problem. So SF doesn't escape the sequence which causes
the problem. Also, please include your copy of template.inc
in the attachment.

I still believe you're running a non-current version of
template.inc. The logic in the current version seems to me
to be unflawed.

Also add ${noTDTags} to your testspecialchars.tpl where 
there is no space, no td tags, nothing, between the $ sign

I am confident that the current CVS version of template.inc
behaves correctly in both these situations. Your second test
result containing a "$" suggests to me that you're
running an old version of template.inc. That kludge was
removed from the script in April.

The last change I made to resolve this issue was to run all
variable values through preg_replace prior to substitution.
While this incurs a performance hit over the previous
kludges, it's practically guaranteed to result in the
correct behaviour.

I have attached my test script and template for this
problem. The output consists of all template.inc's debugging
output followed by a table of three columns. The first
column is a description of the test, the second is the
intended result as plain text and the third is the result
after running through template.

t1 depends completely on your setting of the PHP variable 
$es - you should be testing against ' $es ' so that PHP is not 
doing variable substitution within the string.

Summary: Incorrect DB select implementation

Initial Comment:
Within the DB_MYSQL file and other variants the 
mysql_select_db is placed inside the if the statement
which checks for an open link/chan, this means that if 
you connect to mysql outside of php using pconnect 
when php_lib tries to write to the session tables it thinks 
it has an open link/chan and assumes that it already 
has selected the correct database.

You will notice below that this implementation always 
executes the mysql_select_db regardless of if a 
connection exists or not. This forces selection of the 
correct phplib database.

To fix I have moded function as follows:

  /* public: connection management */
  function connect($Database = "", $Host = "", $User 
= "", $Password = "") {
    /* Handle defaults */
    if ("" == $Database)
      $Database = $this->Database;
    if ("" == $Host)
      $Host     = $this->Host;
    if ("" == $User)
      $User     = $this->User;
    if ("" == $Password)
      $Password = $this->Password;

    /* establish connection, select database */
    if ( 0 == $this->Link_ID ) {

      $this->Link_ID=mysql_pconnect($Host, $User, 
$Password);
      if (!$this->Link_ID) {
        $this->halt("pconnect($Host, $User, \) 
failed.");
        return 0;
      }

    }

    /* select database */
    if (!@mysql_select_db($Database,$this->Link_ID)) {
        $this->halt("cannot use database ".$this-
>Database);
        return 0;

Initial Comment:
hey,

i use the same template 
Version : v 1.11 2002/04/25 12:49:17 richardarcher

it's about a function wich is called twice in the script 
cause of the usage of DHTML. This is the function:
If I called one and again, the error appear.
Could you translate it me please

// liste les fichiers d'un repertoire
// @param $direction = chemin d'installation
// @param $pid = utilisateur
function Simplify_function_for_offset($directory,$pid) {
     Global $TEMPLATE;
          $File = array();
          $Dir = opendir("$directory/$pid");
          while($tmp = readdir($Dir)) $File[] = "$tmp";
          closedir($Dir);
          rsort($File); next($File); next($File);  reset($File);

     $TEMPLATE->set_block
("FILE_32", "BOUCLE_OPTION_FILE_FORM", "BLOCK
_32");
     while($tmp = each($File))
          if(eregi(".sql", $tmp[1])) {
          $TEMPLATE->set_var(array
("CHOIX_OPEN_SWITCH" => '<option value="$directory/
$pid/$tmp[1]">$tmp[1]</option>'));
          $TEMPLATE->parse
("BLOCK_32","BOUCLE_OPTION_FILE_FORM",true);
          }
     $TEMPLATE->parse("EXECUTE_32","FILE_32");
echo $TEMPLATE->get("EXECUTE_32");
}

seen you soon

Summary: fallback error

Initial Comment:
I've recognized that the fallback mechanism from 
cookie to get doesn't work correctly. The created 
session always works, but sometimes the mechanism 
fallsback to "get" on session creation on browser with 
cookie support. 

The source of this behaviour may be "release_token()" 
and/or "get_id()" in "session.inc".

The latest session.inc from the php-lib-stable cvs solves 
the id creation: you cannot pass a non-existent id in the 
URL anymore, nor force a cookie enabled browser to accept 
it. It is not part of the tarball yet.

This problem is twofold though. 
A)The arbitrary id creation, B)the fallback mode, entered 
when cookies enabled.
The latest session.inc solves the arbitrary id creation (no 
more a non existent ID in the URL will be created).
This behaviour can be determined by a session flag, 
block_alien_sid (default true).

But the forceable fallback mode (B) can still be imposed, if 
a preexistent ID is passed via URL.

Example (prerequisite is cookie enabled, no previous cookie 
received):

1.User A gets a session via cookie. He appends that 
regularly created session ID to an URL, and passes it to 
User B, who has cookies enabled (and no prevous cookie 
received).

2.User B is forced to enter get mode, and acquires the 
session created by User A, because this already exists, as 
it was regularly vreated by User A

The new session.inc, so, solves only part of the problem, 
but a big part. 
If User A wants to inject a 'known id' to User B, he can 
still do it, but when that session really expires, User A 
has to restart the trick again: create a new session and 
find a way to pass it again it to User B.
With things as they were before, User A could rely on the 
fact that User B would click again and again on the same 
link, and it would be recreated, even if no more existent 
because garbage collected.
Now things are more difficult, the malicious horse has only 
three legs, it still can walk, but not how and where it did 
before.

To complete closing this weakness we could block any 'mode 
shift' witin the same session. I call this 'session 
coherence'.
By making persistent within the session the 'mode', as soon 
as we know it, session.inc could block any mode change 
within the same session. So if User A creates his id in mode 
cookie, this session would be blocked when, passed to User 
B, is found into 'get' mode.
With this missing second part, passing session ID to User B 
would only be possible in the case that both User A and User 
B have cookies disabled. Which, in my opinion, is a better 
interpretation of 'fallback mode'.

I think this could be related to the web-server.
I have the same error using IIS4, but everything is working fine 
with Apache 1.3.24, though I'm using the same PHPLIB 
version (7.2d).
I think they treat HTTP_COOKIE_VARS in different ways.

DOH! I think the final suggestion in my previous post
is BULL$#!^: on the 
second load of the page you will NOT get back a session id from the browser, 
so you can't match it in the database!

Anyway, the brilliant idea to 
solve the problem is here:
1st hit: set cookie, reload adding GET 
params
2nd hit: if no cookie found continue using GETs, else
         reload, 
eliminating GET params
3rd hit: you're OK now, sure to get the 
cookie

the tradeoff is a slightly slower load-time of 1st-page-of-
session, your take...

the patch to session.inc I just posted here 
(see the patches section)

My 2 eurocents of analysis: it depends on session.inc, function 
release_token, line 406 (in release 7.4rc1): mode is set to 
fallback.

This looks unnecessary (and if your'sure all your users 
have cookies enabled just comment the line and all will be smooth), but it 
stems from a logic problem: if a page is hit by the browser and there's no 
cookie found containing the session id, there's no (easy) way that PHPLIB 
can possibly know if it is the first time that the page was hit and the 
session cookie has yet to be set, or if it is the second time that the page is 
hit and the cookie is not working, so session should switch to fallback 
mode. To make sure it gets it right, phplib adds the session id in the URL, 
although it looks a bit nasty to the end user.

An (hard and long ?) way to 
do it could be storing in the db container the session info on the first page 
hit, before redirecting the user. This way the second page hit would find 
the session id already defined in the db and know that if no cookie is there 
it should fall back to get mode and try a second redirect including the 
session id in the url...

Hope this helps a bit (and maybe even gets 
implemented in verion 8 or someting...)

Summary: Cannot call mysql_pconnect() function

Initial Comment:
"Call to undefined function: mysql_pconnect()"

I'm running RedHat 7.2, Apache 1.3.22, PHP 4.0.6, 
PHPLib 1.7d, mySQL server 3.23.41  PHPlib seems to 
be working fine up until it tries to hit the db.  I was able 
to call phpinfo() without any trouble.  Most of the help 
I've found online so far points toward mysql support not 
being compiled in with apache, but phpinfo reports "--
with-mysql=shared,/usr" which I take to mean that it 
was compiled with all the right options.  Any help would 
be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Chip

I don't know what the "shared," in the configure is doing - I've 
always used "--with-mysql=/usr". For the generic MySQL 
support you can also do "--with-mysql". If you upgraded 
MySQL without recompiling PHP (and PHP was compiled 
with the specific MySQL client libraries) you'll need to 
recompile so PHP can get the new client libraries.
