[RESOLVED] PHP script working and not working

Greg_BigPhpAmat

Hi. Please explain me why some simple script (php) works on my computer (when set as server) and not working uploaded to server. The script is included on page home_top which page is included on page home. When I point directly script file works. Paths are OK because working on my computer. I get folowing errors:

Warning: fopen(banner.db): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/content/m/i/a/miasik/html/Vancouver/skrypty/rotator/banner.php on line 13

dagon

seems relatively clear, the file banner.db is not their

Greg_BigPhpAmat

but the file is there: path is

domain/Vancouver/skrypty/rotator/banner.db

and it was working on my computer I just copied to server

dagon

use the full server path, and are you sure you want fopen, not include?

Greg_BigPhpAmat

I included on all pages. fopen is in script to open banner.db file. This line (13) is:

$baza=fopen("banner.db", "r");

Could you give me a sample full server path? Why these paths were working on computer. And why script works when I call it directly.

that would depend on your server set up but you could try

$dir= dirname(FILE) . '/';
fopen ($dir . 'banner.db ');

still seems odd to use fopen for a local file

Greg_BigPhpAmat

could you fit this in the script? ( My server is set on linux. To be honest I included 3 other scripts and those doest work either).

function banner()
{

//laduje baze bannerow 
$lp=1;
$baza=fopen("banner.db", "r");
flock($baza, 1);
while(!feof($baza))	
{
$url[$lp]=chop(fgets($baza, 1000));
$banner[$lp]=chop(fgets($baza, 1000));
if($url[$lp]==''||$url[$lp]=='\n')
    {
    break;
    }
$lp++;
}
flock($baza, 3);
fclose ($baza);
$lp--;
$total=$lp;

//laduje baze wyswietlen
$baza=fopen("banner.dat", "r");
flock($baza, 1);
$data=chop(fgets($baza, 25));
$numer=chop(fgets($baza, 10));
$lp=1;
while(!feof($baza))
{
    $wysw[$lp]=chop(fgets($baza, 1000));
    if($wysw[$lp]==''||$url[$lp]=='\n')
        {
        break;
        }
$lp++;
}
flock($baza, 3);
fclose($baza);
$lp--;

//sprawdza czy kolejka przeszla do konca
if($numer>$lp)
{
$numer=1;
}

//wypisuje kod bannera	
if($url[$numer][0]!=":") 
{
    echo("<a href=\"".$url[$numer]."\" target=\"new\">");
    echo("<img src=\"".$banner[$numer]."\" border=\"0\">");
    echo("</a>");
    }
else
    {
    include ($banner[$numer]);
    }

//ponownie zapisule plik banner.dat
$wysw[$numer]++;
$numer++;
$lp=1;
$baza=fopen("banner.dat", "w");
flock($baza, 2);
fwrite($baza, "$data\n");
fwrite($baza, "$numer\n");
while($lp<=$total)
{
if($wysw[$lp]=='')
    {
    $wysw[$lp]=0;
    }
fwrite($baza, "$wysw[$lp]\n");
$lp++;
}    
flock($baza, 3);
fclose($baza);
}

banner();

why don't you store banner codes in database in separate rows ?
to get these codes from database costs 5-6 lines.
in my opinion this is the cleanest version.

hello, jjozsi.

Greg_BigPhpAmat

but anyone know why this script doesnt work included and works pointed directly?

Also script works in html page as a frame.......and then included.
Looks like file included on page b and then on page a doesnt work. Why? Is there any rule about that?

djjjozsi

script doesnt work included and works pointed directly?

Just imagine that, in a .php file if you use a folder or a related file its location to that file can change if you include it from an upper folder's php page. In your case a .db file is in the same level with the (included) php file,
but if you want to include it from another point that .db file then douesn't exists.

use a full path to that .db file from the WWWroot in the included program
