MySQL extensions with DW CS4

I am setting up DW to work with PHP, MySQL and Apache. All seems to be fine except that when I try to connect to the database with CS4, I get the message "Your PHP server doesn't have the MySQL module loaded or you can't use the mysql_(p)connect functions. Kevin Yank states in his book that you can't use the mysql and the mysqli extensions together and David Powers on page 590 of his book says to enable both extensions. Problem is when I enable both of them, Apache crashes. Since I can't enable the mysql extension in the php.ini file, I inherently can't use the mysql_pconnect function which is what is used in DW4. PHP/Apache and MySQL work fine if I enable the mysqli extension in php.ini. Can someone please tell me what I am doing wrong?
I am using Apache/2.2.14 (Win32) and PHP/5.2.11

Without the benefit of seeing what Kevin says in his book, it's difficult to know exactly what he means. However, I suspect that what he's saying is that you can't mix mysql and mysqli code, which is perfectly correct. The extensions use completely different - and therefore incompatible - functions.
That doesn't mean you can't have both extensions installed on the same server. I have mysql, mysqli, and PDO-mysql all enabled on both my testing server and my dedicated remote server. As long as you don't mix them in the same script, they all live together in perfect harmony.
Since I can't enable the mysql extension in the php.ini file, I inherently can't use the mysql_pconnect function which is what is used in DW4.
Why can't you enable the mysql extension in php.ini?
Did you use the PHP Windows installer? One of its drawbacks is that it installs dynamic link libraries only for those extensions that you select during the installation process. As a result, you won't have php_mysql.dll in the PHP ext folder. Either reinstall or get hold of the zip version of PHP from the PHP downloads page. Copy php_mysql.dll into the ext folder, and you should be able to use the mysql extension.

Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4

Frustrating problem: Help with add file name problem with Photoshop CS4. What happens is this. When I am in PS CS4 or CS3 and run the following script it runs fine. When I am in Bridge and go to tools/photoshop/batch and run the same script it runs until it wants interaction with preference.rulerunits. How do I get it to quit doing this so I can run in batch mode? Any help is appreciated. HLower
Script follows:
// this script is another variation of the script addTimeStamp.js that is installed with PS7
//Check if a document is open
if ( documents.length > 0 )
var originalRulerUnits = preferences.rulerUnits;
preferences.rulerUnits = Units.INCHES;

Dreamweaver & MySQL Extension for PHP

Hey guys,
As everybody knows, the mysql extension in PHP has been deprecated and it will soon be replaced by mysqli, so does anybody know where I can find an Adobe Extension I can use so I can start using mysqli with Dreamweaver instead of mysql?
By the way, I'm using CS5, CS5.5, so I don't have access to exchange since Adobe put it to work only with CS6.
Thanks

Unfortunately there is no extention available at the moment which replaces the old/current msql server behaviours in DW for msqli. Whilst they are/were useful they are/were also were quite limiting.
After Adobe announced that they would be removing the server behaviors in the current version of DW CC and that php announced that it would no longer support the sql extention in it's next release personally I decided it was time to move on. The good news is using sqli to connect/query a database is really quite a simple proceedure. Just Google a few tutorials.
I understand the reasoning for wanting sqli automation BUT its not available at the moment so you have two choices, 1) continue to use the old mysql server behaviours or 2) learn the new sqli way. It wont take you long to get to grips with it. The server behaviours in DW only offered the basics so learning those basics using sqli isn't going to be too time consuming, plus you actually get more familar with the coding.

Creating standards-compliant web designs with Fireworks CS4 Problems

Hello,
i have some problems with using background image slices.
here is it(from the DevNet arcticle creating standards
compliant web designs with fireworks cs4):
With this feature, seeing really is believing, so let's get
straight to it:
1. Create a new 500 × 500 document.
2. Draw a 200 × 40 rectangle.
3. Set the background color as #000099.
4. Set its fill to be a Linear gradient.
5. Change the first Gradient node's color to #9999FF.
6. Select Edit > Insert > Rectangular Slice.
7.
Change the following properties In the Property Inspector:
* Name: bg_rect
* Width: 1px
* Type: Background Image
* Repeat: repeat-x
* Horizontal position: left
* Vertical position: top
8. Using the Optimize panel, set the slice's export format
to GIF - Exact.
9. Export as bg_slice.htm using CSS and Images.
10. Locate the file and preview it in your primary browser.
i followed these steps exactly but i get no tiled background
only the 200 x 40 rectangle.can anyone tell me what's wrong ?
Kind Regards,

I followed these steps exactly and also viewed the HTML/CSS
exported in Firefox 3.0.5, and the rectangle appeared with the
correctly tiled gradient background. (I'm on a Win XP SP3 machine.)
I tried changing the canvas color to transparent, moving the
rectangle and slice around, changing the width of the slice, and
even changing the horizontal and vertical positioning of the
background image, and the export was still correct. Is it possible
your background image slice is not placed over the gradient? Have
you looked at the CSS exported to confirm that "bg_rect.gif" is
listed as the background image for the DIV and that the .GIF file
is being exported and is a narrow gradient image? Are all of the
export options correct? (There's only a few export options for CSS
and images (.htm), so I doubt this is your problem...)
At risk of asking the obvious, are you using Fireworks CS4
with the updated CSS/HTML extension from the article installed?
HTML/CSS export works differently between CS3 and CS4 - John
Wylie's extension was created for CS3, and Matt Stow updated it for
CS4.

Is the FrontPage Site Wizard for DW MX2004 compatible with DW CS4?

Hi,
Can anyone please confirm whether the 'FrontPage Site Wizard for Dreamweaver MX2004' and 'Publish Web Command for Dreamweaver MX2004' extensions are compatible with Dreamweaver CS4?
I have downloaded and installed both of these extensions successfully, however, when using the extensions within Dreamweaver CS4, I am unable to see 'FrontPage Server' as an option to select.
I'd be grateful if someone can clarify whether there may be a problem with the version of the extensios used (v2.1.0 and v1.1.0), or whether it is simply a permissions issue that prevents me from being able to select FrontPage Server as an option to import from or publish to?
The Technote 15685 (Publish Web command: transferring with FrontPage Server extensions) describes the following:-
Once the extrension is installed, Dreamweaver lists an additional option in the Access menu of the Remote Info category when editing a site.
Within either the Document or Site window, choose Site>Define Sites.
From the list of available sites, choose the site with which you wish to connect to the FrontPage server and choose Edit.
Within the Site Definition dialog box, choose the Remote Info category.
From the Access drop down menu, you will now see FrontPage Server. Choose this option and enter the connection information for your site.
From the above instructions, I cannot see the FrontPage Server option.
Any help or advice but be very much appreciated.
Thank you,
Gary

Hi
Sorry the extension is not compatible with CS4 (was not even compatible with DW8, as far as I am aware). For connecting to the server ask your server administrator to activate WebDAV, and use that option if possible.

PDO Extension for DW CS4/5

I have upload a basic PHP:PDO connection and Recordset Query creation extension for Dreamweaver to my web site - http://www.pziecina.com/design/dreamweaver/pdo_extension.php
This is only a trial version for testing purposes, please read the documentation completely before using the extension, (this extension is free, and will remain so).
Any problems/bugs that you find can be posted on this thread, but please do not post 'how do I' questions in this thread but create your own in the 'application development' section of the forum.
IMPORTANT: You CANNOT use pdo on any page containing the standard Dreamweaver server behaviours; in fact you cannot use ANY of the server behaviour functions currently provided for Dreamweaver on the same page, (this includes ALL 3rd party PHP MySQL extensions that I currently know about).
You CAN use them on the same site though, and both types of behaviours will continue to work.
Paula Z
www.pziecina.com

The extension has now been updated to include the log-in/out, restrict access to page items.
Although I have not completed testing the extension should work in DW8 and above. If you are interested in testing this extension in DW8/CS3 then please let me know and I will provide a link to the slightly modified version for these versions.
The problem with the update / insert behaviours not appearing in the panel has been fixed, (with a limitation) please read the notes at the bottom of the 'PDO extension' page at - http://www.pziecina.com/design/dreamweaver/pdo_extension.php.
The extension can also be downloaded at the same address.

[SOLVED] Php not loading mysql extensions [Merge php.ini.pacnew file].

Hi guys.
I have bitten the bullet and upgraded to the Apache 2.4 and PHP from testing and solved a 10 tons of post-upgrade config nightmares just to figure out that MariaDB will not work with those versions until recompiled against them. Can we please have MariaDB added to testing repo after it was compiled against the Apache and PHP from testing?
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards.

I am not an idiot guys (well maybe I am but...), I would not come here and complain about missing extensions for mysql if I didnt tripple checked they were enabled in php.ini.

PHP is working fine from what I can see.
And Wordpress spits out:
"Your PHP installation appears to be missing the MySQL extension which is required by WordPress."
Which I assumed meant that the mysqld (in this case MariaDB) should be recompiled against php to provide those extensions. Could be wrong. Wouldn't be the first time.

Problem with Photoshop CS4 after migration to new Mac

I just migrated from an old Mac to a new Macbook Pro running Mavericks. I'm having a problem with Photoshop CS4. Specifically, two things:
1) When I open an image in Camera Raw, I get this error:
Fatal error - missing component
/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Version Cue CS4/Client/4.0.0/VersionCue.framework
2) When I try to save anything, it tells me it can't because of a program error.
I've looked around for a solution. Apparently I had to install Java, but that hasn't solved the issue. A couple of people mentioned that reinstalling would work for a similar problem. My problem with that is that my disk is on the other side of the world and my new macbook doesn't have a disk drive anyway. So I logged into my Adobe account hoping to see a download link for software I have licences for, but there isn't one.
So my question is firstly, whether there is a simpler solution to the errors I am getting and, if not, if there's a solution to reinstalling Photoshop CS4 without the disk.
Thanks!

Did you use Apple's migration tool? It misses a lot of support files, especially in the Application Support directories.
You'll have to copy those files manually, or reinstall the app.

Using Lightroom 5 with Photoshop CS4

Hi folks. New Here. I am a novice convert to digital photography and I have browsed the discussions concerning Lightroom and Elements in the main.
Is there any need to buy Lightroom 5 to deal with cataloguing and searching imported RAW images with Photoshop CS4, as Photoshop Bridge 4 comes with Photoshop CS4? What is a good strategy for dealing with libraries of images? I have the chance to aquire inexpensive versions of LR 5 and P CS4.
For your information - I am using a MacBook Pro with a quad core i7 processor, 16 GB RAM, 1 TB Flash drive and my camera is a Canon PowerShot SX50 HS.
Many thanks.

Thanks 99jon,
I appreciate the careful and easy to understand reply, Jon99. Versions of P higher than CS4 are prohibitively expensive for me at this stage. If I get on with digital photography then I might look at the PCS and L CC subscription option in the future.
I went ahead I aquired my bargain basement version of P CS4 and like it so far, but I held back on LR5 until I had a clearer view of what it enables me to do and thanks for the information.
Do you or anyone know if I can sell my version of P CS4 when if I decide to move up to the Cloud solution? Flicking through another Pogue-style book seems to suggest that the latest versions of P CS and L are the current state-of-the-art. Is there a simple list of what users of this option consider to be the main, *essential* improvements of the latest versions of these two pieces of software that possibly make it a must-purchase. I am not after an exhaustive list, but just the main improvements that may make this an essential purchase after I cut my teeth with P CS4.
I am a real novice and have included the specs of my camera and MacBook Pro in my previous post for anybodies info in order to help me.
Many thanks,
David

Getting an strange error in "PluginPrefix.pch" while compiling a plugin code with InDesign CS4 SDK.

Hi everybody,
Currently trying to compile/build the existing Plugin code (C++) with InDesign CS4 SDK on my Mac OS X 10.5 machine but getting following strange errors.
/Volumes/MAC Extended/Inbetween Extended/Visual Studio/Adobe InDesign CS4 SDK/source/precomp/gcc/PluginPrefix.pch:26:27: error: MemoryStatics.h: No such file or directory
/Volumes/MAC Extended/Inbetween Extended/Visual Studio/Adobe InDesign CS4 SDK/source/precomp/gcc/PluginPrefix.pch:39:30: error: PluginBuildFlags.h: No such file or directory
/Volumes/MAC Extended/Inbetween Extended/Visual Studio/Adobe InDesign CS4 SDK/source/precomp/gcc/PluginPrefix.pch:40:28: error: AnsiBasedTypes.h: No such file or directory
/Volumes/MAC Extended/Inbetween Extended/Visual Studio/Adobe InDesign CS4 SDK/source/precomp/gcc/PluginPrefix.pch:41:26: error: ShukHeaders.cp: No such file or directory
Though above mentioned files are present at the following directory
/Volumes/../../../Adobe InDesign CS4 SDK/source/precomp/common/
Note : However initially I did not find “MemoryStatics.h” and “AnsiBasedTypes.h” files in the installed SDK directory. I have downloaded them from the net and copied those into the above mentioned directory.
I am not much familiar with Mac OS environment and compiling/building C++ code with Xcode. Can anyone help me to resolve this issue (might be very trivial and related to Xcode project configuration) ?

Thanks for the quick response,
Yes, current build settings include path shortcuts as mentioned below and it also contains “$(CS_SDK_PATH)/source/public/includes” path in HEADER_SEARCH_PATHS settings. But still I am getting the same error: MemoryStatics.h: No such file or directory
CS_SDK_PATH= /Volumes/MAC Extended/Inbetween Extended/Visual Studio/Adobe InDesign CS4 SDK
CS_SDK_PRJ_PATH=/Volumes/MAC Extended/Inbetween Extended/Visual Studio/InBetweenDev/Projects/InBetweenCS/IBClientPluginCS3/prjCS4/mac
Just for clarification : my Plugin code /project files are not inside the InDesign SDK (build/mac/prj). All the plugin project is outside of the InDesign SDK directory. Thus above mentioned CS_SDK_PATH and CS_SDK_PRJ_PATH are completely different.
Is it expected that the plugin code/project files should be inside the InDesign SDK/build/mac/prj directory only ? or is it okay if we put it in the completely another directory structure and modify the SDK_PRJ_PATH accordingly (as in my case) ?
Please let me know if you want me to elaborate the situation further.

HELP- Printing Problem with Photoshop CS4

Hello Everyone,
I just bought the PHOTOSHOP CS4, and I am having problem when it prints. The image is not clear, it has dots (pixels). This computer where I installed this program is brand new. I have previously worked with Photoshop CS2 and never had an issue but was force to buy this new one because the computer that I bought has Windows Vista and CS2 is not compatible. I thought maybe the problem was my printer but is not I have a Brother HL-5140 (black and white). I have connected my old computer with the printer and the images print perfectly fine. I have printed photos and it prints clear. But this only happens with Photoshop CS4. It prints dots, can someone please help me. Is driving me crazy.

Really I'd be willing to bet it's your driver under Vista.
I have the same problem using Vista and a older HP LaserJet, under XP and CS2 it prints well. Under Vista it's a bunch of dithered pixelated dots.
They want you to buy a newer printer.

I haven't heard of anyone else with those specific symptoms.
But another poster has had problems with his Canon 9900 not printing (but no blank page).
The first thing to do is make sure you are using the Canon drivers and not the GutenPrint/GimpPrint drivers.
After that, you probably need to check with Canon.
