[Phpwiki-talk] Weird Character Garbage Installation Problem

From: Shimmie <sh...@sh...> - 2004-01-08 09:41:23

Hi everyone,

I've installed everything ok... but when I hit the main page, everything =
comes out in garbled characters.

Have a look at: http://www.scrapegoat.com/wiki/index.php
Mozilla shows the characters, but IE 6 won't have a bar of it (throws an =
error message).

Php seems to be installed correctly because I can run other scripts just =
fine (including pMachine).

I've got:

    php4.3.2RC4
    FreeBSD: 5.1 RELEASE
    Apache2.0.46
    phpwiki 1.3.7

If I telnet directly to the port and request the file (GET =
/wiki/index.php http/1.0), it works a dream and I get:

crunch# telnet localhost 80
Trying ::1...
telnet: connect to address ::1: Connection refused
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
get /wiki/index.php http/1.0

This looks like the compression problem.

>From a note I sent to a friend:

        It turns out the issue was not (only at least) gdbm, but
        compression on
        the outgoing side. 
        
        By editing lib/Request.php, by commenting the lines out, I got
        rid of
        that garbage out problem.
        
I sent that n October.  I think if you search the archives back then,
you will see it.

Found it in version (1.3.2-jeffs-hacks):

     114     function compress_output() {
     115         //if (function_exists('ob_gzhandler')) {
     116             //ob_start('ob_gzhandler');
     117             //$this->_is_compressing_output = true;
     118         //}
     119     }

I think this broke when PHP was upgraded.

But I do not use that version any more (at least there).

In a newer version (1.3.5pre) I see the file is greatly changed:
   285     function buffer_output($compress = true) {
     286         if (defined('COMPRESS_OUTPUT')) {
     287             if (!COMPRESS_OUTPUT)
     288                 $compress = false;
     289         }
     290         elseif (!function_exists('version_compare')
     291                 || version_compare(phpversion(), '4.2.3', "<"))
{
     292             $compress = false;
     293         }
     294 
     295         if (!function_exists('ob_gzhandler'))
     296             $compress = false;
     297

Thanks Zot, thats it, problem solved. Should I FAQ this?

I am getting now a boat load of warnings though. Is that because I'm on
php4.3.2 or just because phpwiki 1.3.7 is still beta?

Here are some:

lib/Request.php:220: Warning[2]: Cannot modify header information - headers
already sent by (output started at /usr/local/www/wiki/lib/Template.php(125)
: eval()'d code:6)
PHP Warnings
lib/WikiDB/backend/PearDB.php:682: Notice[8]: unserialize(): Error at offset
21 of 126 bytes

lib/plugin/BackLinks.php (In template 'browse') (In template 'body') (In
template 'html'):112: Notice[1024]: 7

Simon.

[Phpwiki-talk] Template.php(125) error

From: Shimmie <sh...@sh...> - 2004-01-09 03:43:55

I was getting this error 5 times on every page:

> lib/Request.php:220: Warning[2]: Cannot modify header information -
headers
> already sent by (output started at
/usr/local/www/wiki/lib/Template.php(125)
> : eval()'d code:6)

I managed to fix it by changing the order of lines at the end of the
display_page function in display.php to:

    // Moved this line from just before the flush()
    // because checkValidators outputs the evaled code.
    // [shimmie 9/1/04]
    $request->checkValidators();

    $template->printExpansion($toks);
    $page->increaseHitCount();
    flush();
