Hi, Taylor

I sent you an email, if interested I can help you set it up. Or you can go with John.

(I sent the email before I saw the reply)

However, I am posting as I would like to make a notice of something about installing Php Nuke and sometimes other php/mysql scripts.

I once installed phpnuke on my pc (I run php on the pc) and on a Linux Box. On the Pc all was fine, but the Linux Box spit out a bunch of errors after installation. Nothing to prevent it from working, it was just that the server's default php settings had a different level of error reporting than it should have had, and it panicked and spit out a ton of errors. If you notice this, tell us. I doubt you will, though...

This goes for anybody, not just Taylor. This is just fyi for those reading so if they install it, and wonder "Why am I getting these errors". They can come here and I should have a fix for it. It's free, it's just advice for the code. Sometimes a variable needs a @ placed before it lol. It's comical, sometimes.

Also, for those that are curious, Php Nuke is a terrific content management system that you can get for free:

Php Nuke is at:
http://www.phpnuke.org

Also,if interested, another great tool the PHP community loves is PhpMyAdmin. This is for those of you who have php/mysql support and would love a free script that can help you back up your data, modify tables, add tables, and so on. Amazing Tool.

PhpMyAdmin:

Give them a shot you might like them.

If we define a variable that is a connection to the database:



$db_something = @mysql_connect("yourhost", "database",
"password");
if (!$db_something) {
echo( "(p)Unable to connect to the database.(/p)" );
exit();
}



(brackets used in place of html angle brackets in code above)


... the "@" tells the function to fail silently and displays your
custom error message rather then the MySQL default error message.

There is a complete package you can download from sourceforge.net
that you can double-click on and it will automatically install the Apache
Server Software, PHP, MySQL, and PHPAdmin to test scripting on your local
machine.

Hi, Steve. I am a php programmer I was just being sarcastic as to not have to get technical. I felt like I was taking too much time on that topic lol

BUt what you posted is extremely helpful for any new programmer I wanted to laugh when I realized that was preventing some scripts to work. But since then, I make sure the php.ini error reporting has a standard setting so I never have to worry about that again, so long as I can control it. Sadly, some web hosts seem to be a bit picky about changing the php.ini ;)

Thanks
