PHP, GD2 and Joomla

Hi Everyone,
I have previously asked this on the OS X 10.3 forum, however was advised to post here instead. Really hoping that someone will be able to help me out, I'm somewhat new to unix.
Currently, I have a Joomla website set up and running on a 10.3.9 server using the built in web service and PHP 4. One of the Joomla components requires GD2 or ImageMagick to work correctly. At the moment I have googled both, but found it difficult to decide A, which is the better to install, and B, how to actually install it!
I am new when it comes to meddling with the system, and I don't want to break the current site that I have at the moment.
Apparently FINK may be able to help me? But i don't even know what that is. What I want to be able to do is allow my current installation of PHP to use GD2 for image manipulation for a Joomla component.
I can run the Joomla and the component that relies on GD2 on MAMP, however not sure if this is appropriate for a production environment.
Any advice anyone can give would be fantastic! It doesn't seem too many people have had this issue.
Thanks,
Andrew.

Not sure about the feature comparison between GD2 and ImageMagick. I'm more familiar with ImageMagick myself.
If you want to be able to install the latest versions and adjust the configuration, then build from source. If you want it easier with less tweak control then use a package manager like fink or mac ports for a quick install. Package managers also make it trivially easy to update or uninstall. Personally, I prefer going from source, only because I'm sometimes forced to update due to an incompatibility with something new, and either I need to configure something in the build, or the available pre-built packages are behind by a few versions...
http://www.macports.org/
http://www.finkproject.org/
Here's a good recipe for building ImageMagick on Mac:
http://hivelogic.com/?s=imagemagick&x=0&y=0
You may want to follow the URLs in the recipe to get the latest version of ImageMagick though. The only step you don't need is the last one "gem install rmagick" which is just for ruby.

Help linking oracle 11g and joomla 1.6

Hello
I am currently working on a project which uses Joomla 1.6 and MySQL 5.15. We now need to migrate the DB from MySQL to Oracle 11g R2 and I would like some help in finding a driver between Oracle 11g and Joomla 1.6. If anybody has worked with and successfully connected these two could you please help me out.
Could really do with the help as I need to complete the project soon.
Thanks

Hey there...
Well.... It sort of all depends on how Joomla is connecting to the database. Are they using a pre-built framework like PDO or Zend ?
If they are it should be a a relatively easy task to move it to Oracle. If not then you will have to alter their DB layer and replace a lot of the mySQL calls with Oracle calls and add a few. For example MySQL does not parse a statement prior to execution but Oracle does eg:
$oraDB = oci_connect([parms]);
$query = oci_parse($OraDB,'select 'a' from dual');
// If you are binding variables it would go between the parse and execute areas and it is mostly the same as doing
// it with MySQL
oci_execute($query);
$data = oci_fetch_assoc($query);The instant client and the full client do things very differently and connections to the DB server are done differently so you will need to understand those differences and code accordingly.
The OCI_8 php libraries are well established and documented. They must be installed on the server on which Joomla is running.
If your machine is setup correctly this is as simple as:
%pecl install oci8
pecl will take care of pretty much everything including dealing with 32 -v- 64 bit and all you need do is make an entry in the php extension section letting it know the OCI libraries are installed. If not it is a bit more complicated.
The software along with the instructions ca be found here: http://pecl.php.net/package/oci8
You must have either the instant client or the regular Oracle client installed on the server on which Joomla is running.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.htmlhttp://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
After you accept the license agreement click on "See All" and you will see both the instant client and the full client for the version you require.
It is extremely un-wise to attempt to run any version of oracle on the machine running joomla / Apache. If you do so, then you stand a better then even chance of failure as Oracle does not like to share resources.
Make sure you read the install instructions for the oracle client and pay very close attention to things like environment settings and permissions issues on the php server as these are some of the most common problems. Once the client is installed and the oci libraries are installed things should run very smoothly. The whole php to Oracle chain is very fast and the fact that the db server is remote from the web server will not be an issue as long as the links are fast.
If you have problems get back to us and we will do the best we can to help you sort things out.

How to get the data from mysql database which is being accessed by a PHP application and process the data locally in adobe air application and finally commit the changes back in to mysql database through the PHP application.

How to get the data from mysql database which is being accessed by a PHP application and process the data locally in adobe air application and finally commit the changes back in to mysql database through the PHP application.

If the data is on a remote server (for example, PHP running on a web server, talking to a MySQL server) then you do this in an AIR application the same way you would do it with any Flex application (or ajax application, if you're building your AIR app in HTML/JS).
That's a broad answer, but in fact there are lots of ways to communicate between Flex and PHP. The most common and best in most cases is to use AMFPHP (http://amfphp.org/) or the new ZEND AMF support in the Zend Framework.
This page is a good starting point for learning about Flex and PHP communication:
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flex/flex_php.html
Also, in Flash Builder 4 they've added a lot of remote-data-connection functionality, including a lot that's designed for PHP. Take a look at the Flash Builder 4 public beta for more on that: http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/flashbuilder4/

Php form and mail handling

You can see where I am trying to go with this. I want to use the $need variable to determine where the email is going to go (two people in each case). But I am testing this script and cannot get to send me an email without any if statements.
Where have I gone wrong?

Yep, sounds simple enough, but so is turning the ignition key

What you're ignoring is the underlying technology that not

for you
straight out of the box. To build it successfully in
Dreamweaver
requires a knowledge of PHP, MySQL, and SQL.

What you enter in the Action field is the path to the script
that
processes the form input. If you're willing to learn the
basics of PHP,
MySQL, and SQL, you can create a comment form on your site
with
Dreamweaver. However, you need to be aware of security
issues, such as
cross-site scripting and dealing with spam. What looks simple
at first
glance is actually more complex. It's not rocket science, but
it does
involve a learning curve.

How to enable php, mysql, and apache?

Hi guys, I am sorry if I am not in the right forum, but I am really worried about my problem...
According to this article("http://developer.apple.com/mac/articles/internet/phpeasyway.html") I already have php , apache, and SQlite installed on my mac. My problem is when I try to enable the apache, instead of coming a localhost ( like 128.1.2.1) comes my website " your computer's website: http://nunomedi-e14....lan/ ) I donn't know what is this, I replace the index.html with index.php in sites folder.
Can somebody help me please.

Please look at my second post. I corrected what I said:

PHP Update and Modularization

The PHP package was rebuilt in order to provide more functionality while
reducing explicit dependencies and memory usage. This was achieved by
building most PHP modules as shared objects instead of building them
statically in.
In addition to this it is easier to use and package external PHP modules and
its configuration due to the possibility to have a separate config file for
every extension. Those ini files are stored in /etc/php/conf.d/ and will
automatically used by PHP.
If you are using PHP on a webserver connected to the internet you might be
interested in installing the php-suhosin package as well which was moved from
the [community] into the [extra] repository. Along with the suhosin-patch
which ships with the current PHP packge this extension provides some advanced
security features. For some more information on this see
http://www.suhosin.org.
The packages will remain in [testing] for at least a few days. Please test
this package with your favorite scripts and report any error or suggestions:
http://bugs.archlinux.org
If you update from a previous PHP setup, take care of the following changes:
* Due to the modularization you have to enable some modules which were
built-in before. For a quick overview compare the modules section at the
bottom of your php.ini with the new one which will be stored as
php.ini.pacnew
* PHP itself does not have any explicit dependencies, but some extensions will
only work with certain package installed. Those will be displayed during the
installation.
* If you are using any PHP extension from [community] or AUR you will have
to rebuild them against this PHP version. As soon as this package arrives in
[extra], all extensions in [community] will be updated.

Anyway: Did this work with the previous version of php? Does phpinfo show your changes to the socket location?
Everything was fine with the previous version. I upgraded to testing version 5.2.4-4 and mysql connection got broken. There's a silly enterprise application we use and if the mysql.sock file is in /tmp it gives security errors. That's why i need to change default config. Below is a screenshot from phpinfo.

Using the Auth pear package with php 4 and oracle

Hi all.
I was wondering if anybody out there has had any success (or else) using the Auth Pear package with php 4 and Oracle.
I'm trying to do just that but can't get it to work.
I've found lots of examples on the web for mysql but none for oracle...
Feedback on your experiences with this would be most appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Rob

Hi cj.
Thanks for your advice. I came across those documents but discarded them as they didn't deal with the Auth pear package I was intending on using. I didn't want to look at other alternatives as the focus of my project was primarily on migrating existing data from a mysql setup to an oracle setup. And quickly.
I hadn't found any documentation out there on using Auth with Oracle. All examples available on the web were mysql specific.
I eventually got round to gutting the code from the package and finding the fix to my problem.
Just for info, Auth expects by default an auth table containing two fields username and password. That's lowercase table and field names.
If the table name or field names to be used differ from these then they must be explicitly defined when calling Auth. Doing so resolved my problem.
My mysql db had all lowercase naming, while my oracle db has all uppercase naming throughout.
It is important to note that the Auth package uses the table and field names quoted, thus referring to the table and fields in a case sensitive way.
So for an uppercase table and fields setup the call has to be :
$options = array(
    'dsn' => "$dsn_for_my_oracledb",
    'table' => 'AUTH',
    'usernamecol' => 'USERNAME',
    'passwordcol' => 'PASSWORD',
    'db_fields' => '*',
$a = new Auth("DB", $options , "loginFunction");I hope this helps anybody trying to use this package with oracle. It worked great for me.

Running simultaneously PHP 4 and PHP 5

Hi there,
I have a couple of older apps running PHP 4, which I won't upgrade (at least not in the coming months). But at the same time, it would be cool to keep PHP 5, for the new developments.
Is there any way to add the PHP 4 "package", and run both PHPs, say by adding a specific port to the URL or so?! Any ideas? Any suggestions?
Thanks for any help!
http://photoblog.la-famille-schwarzer.de

I would look at MAMP... (google it).. I'm using it and it allows for running PHP 4 and PHP 5. It basically installs a 2nd web server, with PHP 4 and 5, MySQL, gd support, etc.
The free version will do whatyou need it to do.
Works great.

Installed PHP & MySQL, and now I have file permission errors.

Hi Everyone
I recently made a switch from using MAMP to making a separate installation of PHP, MySQL and Rails. I used the first tutorial for Rails + MySQL, and the second one for PHP;
http://hivelogic.com/narrative/articles/ruby-rails-mongrel-mysql-osx
http://www.entropy.ch/software/MacOSx/mysql/
Unfortunately, I now receive errors when trying to install activeCollab through it's own PHP install script, and WordPress won't let me import xml backups into a locally installed WordPress. This must mean that I don't have full Read/Write access to my 'Sites' directory (this is set as my default htdocs in the Apache httpd.conf). I haven't noticed any problems with Rails - so far it's only been PHP based CMS's which have thrown up the permission errors.
I've checked the file permissions on my 'Sites' folder - I'm the only user on the machine, and my account has full Read/Write access to the folder. However, I've noticed that there is also the option to choose 'Group' access, for which my account is again selected and given Read/Write access.
Then there is 'Others' category, and this has 'Read only' access. Is there an option in there which I need to select and give Read/Write permissions to? mysql, php ?
Or, is there a MySQL/PHP/Apache config file somewhere, within which I need to give global read/write permissions?
I didn't have this problem when I was served up local sites from MAMP - and I also configured MAMP to use the 'Sites' folder as it's default htdocs folder. I get the impression that because MAMP was installed as an 'Application', that it automatically inherited my user permissions - maybe PHP and MySQL don't inherit my user account permissions because they are services?...
I've come very far with getting everything installed to work with the OS X bundled Apache server (which I believe is 1.3 - I certainly haven't updated it) so I'd love to get everything finally configured - therefore, any help with this is very, very much appreciated!

PHP, PhpMyAdmin and Mysql for a beginner

Hi,
I am a web designer that has a sound knowledge of xhtml and
css, but I am now finding that knowing about dynamic designing is
becoming more and more important to what I want to do.
So with that in mind I have started to learn php
implementation and how to call information from a database. After
doing some research on the topic, it looks like MySQL and
PhpMyAdmin are the way forward as I come from a web design role and
not a web developer one..
So I need some help where to start with these. I feel that I
can teach myself how to do it, if only I knew how to start., I.e.
Really good tutorials that are made for complete beginners like
myself.
I have never set up a Mysql server or installed PhpMyAdmin
before either; this seems like a complicated thing to do. Do I need
to install anything on my local machine? Or is it all uploaded to
my hosting account??
Please I need some direction on this; every where says
different things about it.
Thanks
Ash

It's not at all difficult. My favorite method:
- Adopt an old box; nearly anything will do. I'm running a
server on a
PII/400 with 320M of memory.
- Download a Linux distro. I'm using Fedora Core - both FC4
and FC5 on
different boxes.
http://fedora.redhat.com/ But
most distros will do.
You can get information on many of them at
http://distrowatch.com/
- Install Linux. For most distros, it's a graphical install
and goes
smoothly. Do the server install unless you want to use the
box as a
workstation. Once you've done the install, you won't even
need an
attached monitor, keyboard or mouse.
- Do a little tweaking to make sure that Apache and the MySQL
daemon
are running.
That's it for that method.
The other way is to download and install a WAMP (Windows
Apache MySQL
PHP) package. I'm not all that familiar with it, but David
Powers
posts frequently on the topic. You can look for his posts.
One
package I've seen mentioned frequently for ease of install is
XAMPP
from Apache Friends:
http://www.apachefriends.org/en/index.html
Going the Linux route means that you'll have a test box which
matches
what's available with many hosting packages (Apache/PHP on
*nix with
MySQL); you will have to do a bit of learning to administer
it,
however.
Going with Windows means that you can run the server right on
your
development machine; however, Windows Apache (and PHP and
MySQL) tend
to have a couple of gotchas which you won't run into on a
*nix box.

Php page and oracle forms link

Dear All,
I am using Application server 10g to deploy my forms and reports. I have another web server on which I am giving users to login to access different applications. I have a php page and users are able to login there properly. But after login when they try to open the applications hosted on the Oracle Application Server 10g, they need to give user id and password again. Is it possible that we can link my web server and my application server so that users need not to login twice.
Regards
Trusha

This is possible only if the other server uses SSO.
Alternatively solution I am thinking ( Not tested )
1 Pass the username from the Server as a parameter to the welcome screen or
the first form.
2 Login using a guest account to the database in the intial screen.
3 Store the username and password in a table. Only guest got the acces to this table and only from forms.
4. When the userid is passed from the server, using guest account check if its a valid user name, if yes get the password from the table and login using that.
Note there is a risk of storing username /password in the database. So while storing the username/ password you can use some encryption and from the forms
decrypt it.

BT email address and Joomla! settings

Hi all,
please help as nothing I've tried seems to work. I've built a site in Joomla! and have now created a form. I should be receiving emails from anyone filling out the form but am not and despite filling in all permutations I can think of I can't seem to get this to work. The form itself is completing as I can go to the admin end of the site and manually check, but it really should be sending the emails too!
Has anyone used Joomla with Bt's settings and if so what have you put in the following fields: (PS this is in the global config section - server - Mail Settings...
Mail Tab:
Mailer: Select the method that is to be used to send e-mails from the web site. Select from the choices in the drop down list:
PHP mail function
Sendmail
SMTP Server
Mail From: Enter the e-mail address that will appear on all e-mails sent out by the web site. For example [email protected]
From Name: Enter the name that will appear in the From field on all e-mails sent out by the web site. For example: The Admin Team; The Web Master;
Sendmail Path: This field displays the path to the Sendmail program on the host. This field is only used if the Mailer field is set to Sendmail and the mail server is running the Sendmail program.
SMTP Auth: Select Yes if SMTP Authentication is required by the host mail server. This field is only used if the Mailer field is set to SMTP Server.
SMTP User: If SMTP Authentication is required by the host mail server, enter the Username for the account. This field is only used if the Mailer field is set to SMTP Server and the SMTP Auth field is set to Yes.
SMTP Pass: If SMTP Authentication is required by the host mail server, enter the Password for the account. This field is only used if the Mailer field is set to SMTP Server and the SMTP Auth field is set to Yes.
any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is it possible to do this with the new BT email service?
Someone on the BT Residential Customer Support Community Forum managed to subscribe to a premium BT email service, keep their existing btinternet.com address for a small fee, and then migrate to a different ISP.
Clearly, ISPs will discourage a lot their customers from migrating if they cannot keep their existing email addresses.
Might that also be seen as some form of unfair practice, in terms of restricting competition?
Hi.
The Premium email service is not ceasing, otherwise "they" wouldn't be informing those on old legacy payg or basic email to either move the address to their BT broadband account (if relevant) or pay 1.60 to keep the address.
This service has been around for years.
Not sure your last comments are relevant - since it's up to the user to move as they wish. Obviously an ISP email tie-in is, however, relevant - but this doesn't stop BTinternet users from keeping their address if they move elsewhere (for that fee). I don't know if other ISPs have this sort of facility.
If people chop & change frequently, then it would make sense to only use a non ISP email address, e.g. their own domain, gmail, hotmail, (even Yahoo) if they so wish.

10.5 server and Joomla URL issue

Sorry not sure if this is the correct location however I hope someone can help.
I'm running a newer Xserve with 10.5 and have Joomla installed. I'm trying all seems to be working but can only access my site via IP with the port number Example: 172.0.0.2:8888
I'd like it to be: internal.domainname.com
It does appears that I need to to make this change in joomla php config file. However I'd would like to be able to do it in server admin> Web > Sites.
I should be able to create a virtual server there including port number as well as any alis's. But every way I've tryed it it doesn't seem to want to pick it up. Almost like Joomla is a stand alone and not effected my server admin?
I also have had this issue with other applications I'm running on the server. FileMaker Pro Advanced server, and WebHelpDesk. I'd like to be able to do same thing but having same issue.
So in all the cases I am able to access the various business applications with and IP and a port number but want to setup virtual servers to be able to access with an alis such as (internal.mydomain.com) I understand about DNS and all the network requirements but when setting up a DNS entry you can't include a port number, so I need to be able to create a virutal server on my xserve.
Thanks for read any advice would be helpful, thanks

DNS can be used to alias your server to a virtual host using a cname. The virtual host domain can be used to setup a web site for apache service. Then route to another service from apache using reverse proxy to get from incoming port 80 or 443 to the other service on the working url or IP address with port number.
There are many forum entries on setting this up. As well as using the reference guide for web technologies at http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/resources/
Redirecting for achieving the same ends is also discussed.

Boilerplate and joomla 3.0 problem won't work

I'm working for a while in joomla 3.0 and now I want to add a dreamweaver responsive layout to one joomla responsive web.
I use a blank template, in which I have made, not much changes, some small changes this. With this template i made my website. Works greats
Once I get the boilerplate way, I have a frame around the website and once I managed to put the boilerplate, the content, text away. For the rest, everything is 100% responsive.
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0, maximum-scale=1.0, user-scalable=0 "/>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo $this->baseurl ?>/templates/<?php echo $this->template; ?>/boilerplate.css" type="text/css" />
<style>
{behavior:url(<?php echo $tpath; ?>/respond.min.js);}
</style>
<div class="gridContainer clearfix">
<div id="header"><img src="images/headers/hoofd.jpg" /><jdoc:include type="modules" name="header" /></div>
<div id="content">
<jdoc:include type="component" />
<jdoc:include type="message" />
</div>
<div id="footer"><jdoc:include type="modules" name="footer" /><div>
</div>
I don't write english often, so i hope it clear what i mean.
What should I change in the boilerplate, so my text is visible again. Because I do not want a white frame around the site. There's still more, but the most important I viewed in this topic . Everything is in my opinion just closed, because he does work without the boilerplate, but with the then with the white frame, what i don't want. I want the boilerplate to work.
Usually I find a similar answer on web, but now it does not work as quickly. Does anyone have tips. Something in the boilerplate does not work correct with joomla, because there is know content on the page. Without boilerplate link, the content is there, but not the 100% responsive layout. I got a iframe without boilerplate around te website made in joomla and dreamweaver. I always use fluid grid layout for websites that are build only in dreamweaver. But i like cms also. Or is it something else.

Hi
A) you copy paste and i see $tpath not $path !!!
B) have a look to the bible spec before use it http://www.w3.org/TR/1999/WD-becss-19990804
if it work on 1 browser test it on many browser ( if the spec is recent you ll not be able to use it on many browser . )
When it is ok test it on joomla template ( many joomla extension parse code ( "html" ) for remove some tag so take care to configure well option in backend ) .
Hope this ll help .
regard's
All suport for CMS need
0- name/version : joomla / template / extension ( if problem come from extension Plug-in Module Component )
1- acces to backend
2- access to web site
3-capture screen configuration of backEnd configuration panel
i never see a so unsupported forum refer to my last post only
i was not so much impress by DW CS6 for responsive since i start learning from the low level
GUI is for speed and money .......sublime text/pre processor ?
