Hi All - hope someone has done this before. I need to create a PHP script that detects the presence of a new file appearing into a folder, and process it. This HAS to be supported by Windows IIS (Have looked at FAM for Linux but can't use it). I could do a loop with some sleep that checks the directory every x seconds - but this has been discounted by the client as either a) too resource hungry or b) not quick enough if there is a delay. Add ons, extensions or even external 3rd party tools would all be acceptable. Any ideas? Phil

Hello, I've got a question about ddos attack. As happen before our site has been attack, i think it was a ddos attack which crash our server. Back then our web app and database are on the same server. As now web app and database are separate. site is on windows server and its connected to database from other server also (Linux). If an attack like that happen again, is the database server can be prevent from crashing as it is now separate? Thanks. I have a site running on windows server and its connected to database from other server also (Linux).

Codeigniter POST request empty. I tried to up my website on our production server which is using IIS8, post request is empty, I've tried to break codeigniter and post is working. It is also working on our staging server which is on IIS6. Does anyone has an issue on this on Codeigniter 3.

I have been working on a custom form for our office to use, and I am rounding the final corner (checkboxes!) and am stuck. I have finally gotten the code to actually function the way I want, but am greeted with a 500 error instead of the confirmation page. Maybe I'm just tired and missing something...

Hello, we got a site running in to different servers, the other one is a sub domain that will be use as internal pages and the other one is external. As of that I need to pass session to see if a user details. Is there a another secure way to pass session data to other server without storing on the database?

I am confuse of web server and application server and looking for the solution. It would be great if someone explain me detail about the differences and use of the appserver.

Hi We moved a site that was developed by outsource company from old to new server and seem to be experiencing some issues on the new server. The products don’t show up anymore and no changes have been done on the code. When I turn errors on like http://mlungisi-001-site1.smarterasp.net/products.php there are some notices but surprisingly it worked on the old server. Windows 2008, IIS7 Server Errors turned on Notice: A session had already been started - ignoring session_start() in H:\root\home\mlungisi-001\www\site1\libs\products.php on line 27 session_start(); Notice: Undefined variable: iAUID in H:\root\home\mlungisi-001\www\site1\libs\users.php on line 73 GetAU($iAUID, $AUID, $Email, $Firstname, $Surname, $COID, $CellNo, $PWord, $Active_Tag); Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in H:\root\home\mlungisi-001\www\site1\libs\users.php on line 74 GetAU($iAUID, $AUID, $Email, $Firstname, $Surname, $COID, $CellNo, $PWord, $Active_Tag); Notice: Undefined offset: 0 in H:\root\home\mlungisi-001\www\site1\libs\users.php on line 75 $_SESSION['uSurName'] = $Surname[0]; Notice: Undefined index: uUserTypeID in H:\root\home\mlungisi-001\www\site1\libs\products.php on line 1244 if ($_SESSION['uUserTypeID'] == 2) I have tried to kill sessions before starting a new one but that didn’t help either. I am caught between a latch and a door, don’t know whether its code issue or PHP configurations or MySQOL. Please share ideas Attachments Products.php Users.php users.php products.php

I have question about I.P. configuration. On IIS server we have a default I.P. that we use to access the web pages,e.g. 123.45.6.7 . Can I change I.P. or going to create a virtual I.P. just to view specific page. Current I.P. : 123.45.6.7 Virtual I.P. : 134.25.7.6/page I am using codeigniter as my framework. Or maybe if it can be done on coding?

Hello, I m a noob and I need to know a thing. Which one I should I use for local host? Wamp xampp or IIS? Which one will help me now and in future development? Which one is much more preferable? Thank you.

I am running the MindTouch Core 10.1.3 CMS web application on a 2008 R2 SP1 server and am running into issues. I have posted the issue over on those forums and ServerFault but I think it is more related to PHP itself and the environment. The problem doesn't happen locally with a similar VM on our network, just on the public one hosted online. Basically, every few hours or so, we will receive an HTTP error 500 message either in the browser or in the logs. This happens when browsing pages and is especially reproducible when uploading files (usually between 5-10MB). Simply refreshing the page or trying to upload the file again will allow it to eventually complete. In IIS, I see several entries of the following under FailedReqLogfiles: ModuleName ManagedPipelineHandler Notification 128 HttpStatus 500 HttpReason Internal Server Error HttpSubStatus 0 ErrorCode 0 ConfigExceptionInfo Notification EXECUTE_REQUEST_HANDLER ErrorCode The operation completed successfully. (0x0) The PHP version is 5.2.14 (version that ships with MindTouch). I will also see some entries in the PHP error log that show: [05-Mar-2013 15:03:31] PHP Warning: implode() [<a href='function.implode'>function.implode</a>]: Invalid arguments passed in C:\Program Files (x86)\MindTouch\MindTouch\web\skins\error-settings.php on line 93 The server is a virtual machine with 4GB RAM and 4 vCPUs. It is hosted in the cloud and accessible over the web. What things can I look at to troubleshoot this issue? Are there settings on the properties of the App Pool that I should review? Any help is greatly appreciated.

I've been stumped on this for a couple days now. I've tried various solutions to no avail. Please help... Problem: We have two domain controller, which are not under our management. We are able to connect via LDAP on port 389, but are not able to connect securely over port 636. We are developing a system to allow a number of self-service facilities, one of which is a password recovery tool. This works up to the point of resetting the users password. I have found some code via the PHP manual which appears to do what we need, but cant seem to get it to work. This is the code I have thus far if ($caller==="change"){ if (($newPword1 === NULL)||($newPword1 === "" )){ return false;} if (($newPword2 === NULL)||($newPword2 === "" )){ return false;} if ($newPword1 != $newPword2) {$result["ERROR"]="1";$result["DETAILS"]="Your new password and the confirmation must match!";exit(); } try { $adldap = new adLDAP(); } catch (adLDAPException $e) {$result["ERROR"]="1";$result["DETAILS"]="An error occurred in adLDAP";echo json_encode($result);exit(); } $userinfo = $adldap->user()->info($username, array("givenname","dn","lockouttime")); $res = $userinfo[0]["lockouttime"]; $userDN = $userinfo[0]["dn"]; $firstName = $userinfo[0]["givenname"]; $authUser = $adldap->authenticate($username,$currentPword); if ($authUser){ try { $adminUsername = $domain."\\".$adminUsername; $srvDN = "LDAP://".$serverFQDN."/"; try {$ADSI = new COM("LDAP:");} catch (exception $e){$result["ERROR"]="1";$result["ERRORmsg"]=$e->getMessage();echo json_encode($result);exit();} try {$user = $ADSI->OpenDSObject($srvDN.$userDN, $adminUsername, $adminPassword, 1);} catch (exception $e){$result["ERROR"]="2";$result["ERRORmsg"]= $e->getMessage();echo json_encode($result);exit();} try { //set password if ($user){ $result["object"]="Success"; } else { $result["object"]="Failed"; } $user->SetPassword($newPword1); //line:114 -> error occurring on this line $user->SetInfo(); $result["ERROR"]="0"; $result["DETAILS"]="Thank you $firstName[0]<br><strong>Your password has been changed</strong><br><br>This may take up to 30 minutes to take effect depending on your location";} catch (exception $e){$result["ERROR"]="3";$result["ERRORmsg"]=$e." - ".$e->getMessage();$result["DETAILS"]="An Error Occurred.";} unset($user); unset($ADSI); } catch (exception $e){$result["ERROR"]="1";$result["DETAILS"]="An Error Occurred in the ADSI COM";echo json_encode($result);exit();} } else { if ($res[0] != "0"){ $result["ERROR"]="1"; $result["DETAILS"]="Im sorry $firstName[0].<br>Your account is now locked. Please contact the IT Service Desk for advice"; } else { $result["ERROR"]="1"; $result["DETAILS"]="Im sorry $firstName[0].<br>Your current password is incorrect"; } } In testing $result["object"] returns "Success". But the code seems to fail on the $user->SetPassword($newPword1); line. The error that is being returned is: ERROR -> "3" object -> "Success" ERRORmsg -> "exception 'com_exception' with message '<b>Source:</b> Unknown<br/><b>Description:</b> Unknown' in C:\inetpub\wwwroot\<path>\<filename>.php:114 Stack trace: #0 C:\inetpub\wwwroot\<path>\<filename>.php(114): variant->SetPassword('P@ssw0rd') #1 {main} - <b>Source:</b> Unknown<br/><b>Description:</b> Unknown" DETAILS -> "An Error Occurred." The above code is in a php doc on an IIS Web Server which is called by a user viewable page over https Are you able to offer any advice or guidance? Many thanks...
