Where is a download for config.php??

yes, ive searched the site, and found nothing, yet the step by step just says download it off this site..

whats going on?

Me Three.

Right ho found it in another page:

http://martin.f2o.org/download/poll/config.php

Hey bud i like the webpage but i want this page to provide the user with other good download facilities..and programmer can submit their projects here.

does details.php needs to be in the user directory?

Thanks for this great page, but could somebody tell me how to use the PEAR files with Windows ?

There are still a couple of files that need moving around in different directories, but the only file I can not fix is:

html_form.php

I get this:

Welcome to the login page. Warning: main(html_form.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /var/www/html/user/signup.php on line 20

The PEAR HTML Form is found in "HTML/Form.php" but the class is called HTML_Form.

Can someone that got this working zip it all up and submit it?

Ah, here it is:

html_form

My script isn't working. Can some1 make a ready-4-use script that I can put in my web directory?

If i encrypt the password with md5 function, can it be decrypted so I can send the password to the user's email on request?? How is that possible for users want to retrieve their password?? Thanks

I notice that in the script all your links do not include the .php extension. On my server this gives an error saying 'page can not be found'.

How did you manage to make your server not require the .php extension?

Thanks.

Sorry guys, haven't been watching this site as much as I should, anyway, here's my attempt to answer your questions:

eikcam: Don't know whats up with that either. Just put the extension where it's needed and everything is happy.

Vinh Vu: No. MD5 is one-way encryption. There is now way of retrieving the password.

Dr.Acula (and others): You won't find much more ready made than this. Try and learn some background about what you are doing, it'll help you understand how to make things work.

Krock (and others): Look at pear.php.net for all your needs.

Arnaud: Email me and I might be able to assist you there.

Thats all I have time for now, just ask for anything else you need.

Why isn't anyone answering the number one question that everyone has asked... Where do we find the "DB_Common" PEAR package, the site you listed "pear.php.net" does not have this file, nor is it even in their search database. There are a total of 17 packages for Database and none are for DB_Common. There is DB, DBA, DBA_Relational, DB_ado, DB_DataObject, DB_DataObject_FormBuilder, DB_ldap, DB_ldap2, DB_NestedSet, DB_Pager, DB_QueryTool and DB_Table. That's all for the DB named files, so maybe you have another site or place we can obtain it from cause it's not there.

Yeah I also forgot to ask, where do you place the PEAR files at on your server? Is there any type of directory structure needed and do the files all need to be in the same folder, also where to put them for a Windows server?

Thanks.

Hi there...

While I was attempting to browse the sample-code via the index.php page I got this error message: " Notice: Undefined index: REQUEST_URI in C:\Inetpub\wwwtest\lib\user.php on line 234 "

What is the meanning of this error?

And how can I correct it?

Thanks a lot in advantage. :)

Hi

I seem... this is (perhaps) the last problem with this script. Sincerely, is hard to implement!

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: redirect() in /var/www/html/user/login.php on line 36

Can anyone explain to me what the redirect('/user/') function means ?

Thanks

Hi

After a little hard handwork, PHP login script works fine on my linux box.

Thanks Martin.

I suggest you to rewrite this step by step guide to adapt on to reality framework.

I get the following error:

Parse error: parse error in /srv/www/config.php on line 5

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: db_connect() in /srv/www/htdocs/global.php on line 10

The first error refers to the line require_once("DB.php"); in config.php, which I got from this forum - DB.php is in my pear directory, so I can't see what the problem is. Copying DB.php to the same directory as the login script makes no difference. The DB.php file is default (I have never edited it) so surely there cannot be an error in it?

Does anyone have any ideas?

I have a problem with index.php. I already have a file with that name and it runs my site. What do I need to do to change this?

you all suck balls, none of you understand this crap coz you dont know the language. niether do i but i dont bitch about someone whos giving out their code so shove some balls in your mouth and shut your hole faggots.

When opening the index.php by going to http://localhost/index.php I get an error stating that there is not such db. However, I can connect to the db using mysql, and I have already modified the config.php to point to the database, and I have verified that the username,password,and dbname are correct.

However, I can connect to the db using mysql, and I have already modified the config.php to point to the database, and I have verified that the username,password,and dbname are correct.

See my comments above, but I was also able to connect to the database remotely via Access, and was able to add a row to the members table. Also the scripts and the database are running on the same Redhat 8.0 server. I am also able to connect to the database using mysql -u shaggy -p. I have a fealing it has something to do with the pear modules, but I am not 100% sure since I am new at this.

I did update to the latest version of DB pear files, and I have confirmed that mysqld is running and listening on TCP port 3306, and there is an entry in the /etc/services for 3306 pointing to mysql. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Ok where do i get a db.php from???

I've gone up and down gone through many things to try and get this script going. I'm stuck at "DB Error: not found" when i view login.php if anyone can give me a hand i'd appreciate it. Just email me please. I have gone through the 15 step thing and this is where i'm at. page is http://puna.kicks-ass.net/login/login.php if that helps at all.

Hi,

I do think I have got this right.

but where do i find DB_Common, HTML_Common, HTML_Table, HTML_Form ?

I use Fedora core 2 and have used yum to install most of php-pear. But when i do a locate DB_Common, HTML_Common, HTML_Table, HTML_Form i dont find any of them. Just DB.

what do i do to get this? and what is the right place to place dem?

regards

martin

this is how it looks so far:

http://lunde.homelinux.com

So, there are alot of things you're not told here.

I went throught he entire process of installing PEAR on my home computer; I've got PHP, MySQL and Apache installed already.

There are several things you are not told.

Here are some more specific instructions for installing this little piece of software.

Your directory structure MUST look like this (I named my main folder 'loginscript' because I have another index file in my main public_html directory):

www/config.php

www/loginscript/common.js

www/loginscript/filter.php

www/loginscript/html_form.php

www/loginscript/functions.php

www/loginscript/global.php

www/loginscript/index.php

www/loginscript/list.php

www/loginscript/multipage.php

www/loginscript/session_defaults.php

www/loginscript/details.php

www/loginscript/lib/user.php

www/loginscript/user/edit.php

www/loginscript/user/login.php

www/loginscript/user/logout.php

www/loginscript/user/password.php

www/loginscript/user/signup.php

In each of the www/loginscript/user/ files, you MUST add the line

require_once '../global.php';

At the VERY TOP of the file just inside the PHP tags (after the comment though).

Additionally, in each of the files in

www/loginscript/user/

CHANGE THE FOLLOWING!

require_once 'html_table.php';

TO

require_once '../html_table.php';

That should do it. Works perfectly on my home server now.

Funny part is, all this was just an exercise, I already have a very nice login script I wrote myself, just thought I'd play around with one that is OOP..

On the upside I did learn to use PEAR and install it myself, and I got some exposure to the HTML tables classes.

i cant find config.php ne were

this is rly bugin me sum 1 plz help :(

Well, I'm stumped. I've installed all of the files, as described, configured everything per instructions, I've got a bit of experience with PHP/MySQL/PEAR, but when I attempt to login... nothing. Nothing happens at all. Clicking on the submit button gets NO action whatsoever. Any suggestions?

I download the script. I got most errors many of you have. To resolve most issues you must download few PEAR PHP packages and decompress them in the directory where PHP could find them.

If you have IS_A not found error, you must include two lines in DB.php at the beggining: require_once 'compat.php'; PHP_Compat::LoadFunction('is_a');

this is cause your version of php does not have that function. PHP_Compat is a PEAR PHP package. also is DB.

Other errors like SetFetch... not found, are cause some PEAR packages call php files in subdirectories that does not exist. For example: you must open mysql.php in DB directory where you decompress the PEAR package and change a call to '/DB/common.php' and changing to 'common.php' cause that file is in the same directory of mysql.php.

So what I recommend you, is to download all necessary PEAR packages, install them in the right directory and check for bad file references in php files. That should solve most problems.

What I could not resolve, is to assign privileges to shaggy in .

I am running mysql in cygwin in a win XP computer. I dont have admin privileges, but up to know I was able to run every service.

I tried with differents user and passwords but I get the same error "ERROR 1045: Access denied for user: '@localhost' (Using password: NO)"

I load http://localhost/~myuser

and I just get a blank page.

with no error. I check source code of the generated page, and is blank.

Any help?

I don't know if I'm beig silly but is_a();

isn't just a mistake for is_array();

Hey guys, you just have to look hard!

http://martin.f2o.org/download/poll/config.php

Any clues? Help! I'm determined now i've started :)

where is that multipage.php i can't find it at all! :( pls help

Hi,

I feel the way you created your script and described it seems to be a bit complicated.

I create the tables, but after that is a mess. I am a beginner and would like to understand it more. Please email me if you would like to put the article in more of a beginner style piece.

This tutorial is not for beginners, it is an advanced script for advanced users who don't know how to or don't have time to write their own secure script.

I may write a beginners script though, if I get enough requests for it,

DB Error: connect failed that is the error, where can i edit the DB shit??

i am close to finishing up a "working" version of this script. will message on here with a link. this script is rather old and needs some updating.

well i know i installed everything right..

pretty sure, i get a blank white page when i go to index.php. any ideas ?

Warning: main(../config.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/daiada1/public_html/global.php on line 6

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required '../config.php' (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/daiada1/public_html/global.php on line 6

Greetings,

Since you have chosen [b]NOT[/b] to read the entire thread. I will give you the location of CONFIG.PHP. It is here:

http://martin.f2o.org/download/poll/config.php

Can you find it now?

Ok. Can't find DB_Common.

Can't someone just zip up the whole working package? It's not that hard.

I seriously takes ages to set it up and find all the files. :/

Ciao amici miei! sono http://www.blog-buster.net

Hi there,

Just wondering if anyone has a link to pear db_common, i have got the rest.

Also if you have any documentation on the pear install for windows of what to do that would be great.

Cheers, Phil

i keep getting DB error: connection failed

So, instead of zipping up the working install, we are sent from pillar to post looking for include files that don't exist, links to packages that don't exist (eg DB_Common in PEAR), the zip file has an incorrect directory structure, and generally this is the most stupid waste of time site.

On the off-chance that this code actually works after it has been reassembled, and put together like a jigsaw, would someone be so good as to post a link to the zipped install (with correct directory structure) somewhere here?

It works. I followed the instructions and it worked without fault. If you don't like it, leave. Either way, don't post anonymously if you want to bitch, you coward.
