Get PHP, MySQL and misc. info

[DeathStar]

Hi

i'm making a scritp that will get the php version the mysql version the path the file is from.  but i need the text info not an if statement.

i also need a mysql install script(that writes something from the script into another php file.

 

here is my current script but i dont want it as an if statement.

 

if (version_compare(phpversion(), '4.2.0') < 0)
{
$phpver="<font color='red'>Not the Correct Version</font>";
$pvf=0;
}
else
{
$phpver="<font color='green'>4.2.0</font>";
$pvf=1;
}
if(is_writable('./'))
{
$write="<font color='green'>OK</font>";
$wvf=1;
}
else
{
$write="<font color='red'>Failed</font>";
$wvf=0;
}
if(function_exists('mysql_connect') || function_exists('mysqli_connect'))
{
$mysql"<font color='green'>Connected</font>";
$dvf=1;
}
else
{
$mysql="<font color='red'>Not Connected</font>";
$dvf=0;
}
if(str_replace('game_install.php','',$_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']) == "/")
{
$path="<font color='green'>Correct</font>";
$avf=1;
}
else
{
$path="<font color='red'>Not In root path</font>";
$avf=0;
}

so...just assign it to a variable.

Any help in doing that?

 

but i need other parts to.

like what's the server ip.

like you normally have on the bottom left of a cpanel.

umm...are you saying that you don't know how to assign a value to a variable? No offense, but maybe you should go start on a hello world tutorial.  Ever heard of the expression "don't put the cart before the horse?"

[DeathStar]

I know how but i dont need just the php,mysql ver , path

but also need an script that will write info to a php file.(for mysql)

 

some other ifo to.

for and install file im making!!

I've never heard of making an install file from another file... It's just impractical.  Also, no one has any idea what exactly you're trying to do...  Like make an example file by hand, and maybe someone can help you dynamically recreate it.

but also need an script that will write info to a php file.

 

$phpFile = "yourfile.php";
$run = fopen($phpFile, 'w') or die("Can't open the file");
$Data = "YOUR TEXT\n";
fwrite($run, $Data);
fclose($run);

 

This is only if I understood what you were trying to do correctly, I may have misinterpretted you.

 

[DeathStar]

Yes thats one part thanks  elis!

 

what i want to make exactly is:

 

an install file.

Displays the php,mysql and apache version.

next i want it to goto a page that will ask for the mysqlhost, username, password and the database.

the. install the data if everything is right (php,mysql).

 

then write that info to an file. ex. config.php

 

now understand?

At the moment, it seems like your best bet is to use a prewritten install code, and piggyback off that. Try downloading any sample file from hotscripts and editing their installation file to suit your needs.

[DeathStar]

yes that prob woukld be the best.

thanks anyways!
