Hi, what is the status of the -devel tree? Is there still developpement for the bookmarks project? I would like to go back to just one tree. The released package would contain stable code, and the cvs would come with no warranty :) -- Marc Delisle Service de l'informatique Collège de Sherbrooke, Québec

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Great news: we're getting "official"... ! :)
by Olivier M. 05 Jun '01

05 Jun '01

Good'day, Here the short answer I got from Tobias a few days ago: ============================================================= Subject: Re: ping? - (phpmyadmin) (retry...) From: "Tobias Ratschiller" <Tobias.Ratschiller(a)maguma.com> Date: Mon, 28 May 2001 09:53:14 +0200 To: "Olivier Mueller" <omueller(a)8304.ch> Organization: Maguma AG Okay, two issues: - I like your version and would like it to be the official version. - The phpMyAdmin-site is still popular and should be the official presence. We have two choices: I can provide you with FTP/CVS access to phpWizard, or I can link to sourceforge for downloads/CVS. What do you think? -Tobias ============================================================= If I understand correctely, that means we can remove the "un" part from the "unofficial" on the http://phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net/ pages :) Isn't that cool ? Here was my answer to Tobias (sent the 28.05, but still without answer): ============================================================= On Mon, May 28, 2001 at 09:53:14AM +0200, Tobias Ratschiller wrote: > Okay, two issues: > > - I like your version and would like it to be the official version. Sounds nice, thanks. I'll forward your mail to the devel-ML. If you have a sourceforge username, could you please tell it me, and I'll add you also as project admin. > - The phpMyAdmin-site is still popular and should be the official presence. Ok, it's the most well-known place to get phpMyAdmin, so that's perfect. > We have two choices: I can provide you with FTP/CVS access to phpWizard, or > I can link to sourceforge for downloads/CVS. What do you think? - keep the CVS on sourceforge (more practical to open/close developper access, and also nice because of the bug trackers, etc.) - ftp access would be needed, to add direct links to the latest release on the page under http://www.phpwizard.net/projects/phpMyAdmin/ and some news. - and maybe there would be some space for a working demo ? the mysql support of sourceforge is not working yet, and people *loves* demos :) Regards, Olivier ============================================================= Any comment ? Thanks again to you all for your work, and see you later on the devel-list. Kind regards, Olivier CC: sent to Tobias Ratschiller and Geert Lund (forum manager) -- _________________________________________________________________ Olivier Mueller - om(a)8304.ch - PGPkeyID: 0E84D2EA - Switzerland qmail projects: http://omail.omnis.ch - http://webmail.omnis.ch

Hi, of course we are interested in including your work in the main version. Which bugs did you fix? Can you send patches in the patch tracker of http://sourceforge.net/projects/phpmyadmin ? And translations in the translations tracker?

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Fwd: phpMyAdmin 2.2.0 modified in japan.
by loic-div＠ifrance.com 05 Jun '01

05 Jun '01

I don't whether I'm the only one who received this mail or not, so I forward it to the list.... ----- Forwarded message ----- De: "SAKAMOTO" <ringring(a)zb4.so-net.ne.jp> A: "SAKAMOTO" <info(a)boreal-net.com> Date: 03/06/01 Objet: phpMyAdmin 2.2.0 modified in japan. Dear phpMyAdmin Developers and whom it may concern, Hi, I am Sakamoto from Japan. I am a web programer with perl, java, php as a freelancer. Now I am making a auto install program by myself, all for apache, apache-ssl, MySQL, php, perl, tomcat, jdk, and many modules for windows(95,98,200,nt) with a total web site samples. It's name is Risa. Asp, jsp, php, cgi can run on Risa. This work is almost finished and in a few week I'm going to distributed as a free software. I am sorry but at the moment only in Japanese and Korean Language. Making this program I have tested phpMyadmin and fixed some bugs. And I added Japanese and Korean language I translated. On Japanese and Korean Windows OS I could not read the pages in a correct character set. So I added charset.inc.php and a little bit modified it. Now I am distibuting the zip binary file in Japan and Korea. So I just send e-mail to let phpMyAdmin Developers and who it may concern know that this modified file is being distributed now. You can download the file from the below URL. http://risa.okstart.pe.kr/project/phpmyadmin-2.2.0-ri sa.zip Tested with PHP 4.0.5, MySQL 3.23.38, Apache 1.3.19, Apache-SSL 1.3.20 on win98, win98 se, win2000, winnt4.0 in Japanes and Korean. I will be very happy with your short comments about it. Thank you for your early atention. Bye. ______________________________________________________________________________ ifrance.com, l'email gratuit le plus complet de l'Internet ! vos emails depuis un navigateur, en POP3, sur Minitel, sur le WAP... http://www.ifrance.com/_reloc/email.emailif

[Phpmyadmin-devel] CREDITS / pre5
by Olivier M. 05 Jun '01

05 Jun '01

'night, pre5 is out, fixing the little Warnings problems for the moment. Small request to all of you: could you please edit the CREDITS file ( the current one is http://phpmyadmin.sourceforge.net/phpMyAdmin/CREDITS ), and update your entry with some lines listing your main contributions ? (just the main things, not every small bugfix please : this should be in the ChangeLog :) Merci!

[Phpmyadmin-devel] stable-branch todo
by Olivier M. 04 Jun '01

04 Jun '01

'morning As some of you told me, it would be soon the time to release a stable version of the current tree. What in your opinon must be done before ? Here a few personal ideas: please comment or add your ideas: [ ] fix the mysql_select_db($db) problem (cf. my other post an hour ago) [ ] fix (or if it's too much work: move to the -devel tree) the user administration routines (cf. other post) [ ] create a FAQ file or page (look at the questions asked on http://www.phpwizard.net/phorum/list.php?f=1 : they are almost always the same...) [ ] table view (tbl_properties) : move the "Table type:" at the end of the page, as well as the "Table comments:" input field. But display the comment (if any) under the title (Database ___ - table \n $comment) [ ] table view (tbl_properties): move the "Select" and "Insert" links higher (before "Check table") : important functions should be higher on the page than functions used less often. [ ] what about using bigger input fields and textareas while editing records ? Dynamicaly (if length of field < 40, show a field of the right size, otherwise show a field of size 40), or by adding 3 variables to the config file (text_field_length, textarea_rows_nb, textarea_cols_nb...) [ ] update CREDITS, DEVELOPERS, README files [ ] record editing: remove "insert new row" if we are not editing an entry (inserting a new one), and rename the button as "Insert as a new row" (will need a new text label I guess). [ ] when creating a new table (table view -> create table): what about ignoring fields when the field name is empty ? When creating a table, I (and probalby others :) not always know exactley how many fields I need. What do you think? Would be more user-friendly. [ ] (low priority) add an "about phpmyadmin" page to the code, like for example http://admin.omnis.ch/admin2/?A=about (containg the most important links, feedback form, etc.) [ ] try to contact all the translators to let them update their files... (they should all be on the translators mailing list : would be the easiest I guess). [x] have a nice week-end :) Cheers, Olivier -- _________________________________________________________________ Olivier Mueller - om(a)8304.ch - PGPkeyID: 0E84D2EA - Switzerland qmail projects: http://omail.omnis.ch - http://webmail.omnis.ch

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Access denied for user: 'wwwrun@localhost' in /home/admin/www/mysql/lib.inc.php3 on line 6
by Olivier M. 04 Jun '01

04 Jun '01

Hello, Currently trying the latest "stable" tree, and since the "mysql_db_query deprecate" (lem9, http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/phpmyadmin/phpMyAdmin/lib.in… ), I get this error... (php4.0.5, using adv_auth and std_auth). Warning: MySQL Connection Failed: Access denied for user: 'wwwrun@localhost' (Using password: NO) in /home/admin/www/mysql/lib.inc.php3 on line 6 Warning: MySQL: A link to the server could not be established in /home/admin/www/mysql/lib.inc.php3 on line 6 In the setup, the user is "mysql", not "wwwrun" (that is the webserver id). Isn't this a bug ? :) Also tried the new "user admin feature": just look great, but also also maybe not ready: GRANT Select, Insert, Update, Delete, Create, Drop, Reload, Shutdown, Process, File, References, Index, Alter ON cyphor.* TO 'olivier'@'%' with grant option MySQL a répondu: Can't find any matching row in the user table --> on my mysql server, ther user-table looks like that: CREATE TABLE user ( Host char(60) NOT NULL, User char(16) NOT NULL, Password char(16) NOT NULL, Select_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Insert_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Update_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Delete_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Create_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Drop_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Reload_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Shutdown_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Process_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, File_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Grant_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, References_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Index_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, Alter_priv enum('N','Y') DEFAULT 'N' NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (Host, User) ); so the fields name are not corresponding... Maybe a mysql-version compatiiblity problem ? (MySQL 3.23.30-gamma) Loic: thanks for your NS4-display fixes: now looks and works perfect, merci :) Regards & thanks for your work! It these bugs can be fixed this week-end, what about a new pre-release next week, and then a _real_ release ?

[Phpmyadmin-devel] releases: pre4 and alpha-20010604 snapshot
by Olivier M. 04 Jun '01

04 Jun '01

Bonsoir, good evening, Just released on the project download page: *** "stable": 2.2.0pre4 *** http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin-2.2.0pre4.tar.gz *** "unstable/devel": 2.3.0alpha-20010604 *** http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/phpmyadmin/phpmyadmin-2.3.0alpha-2001060… I still get the warnings in lib.inc.php3 on line 6 (with pre4), but it seems I'm the only one, so nothing against a release. And this way we'll surely get some more feedback. Now that we got the Ok from Tobias, what about a 2.2.0-final before the start of the summer ? (2-3 weeks). The "Feature Request" page is now uptodate ( http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=377411&group_id=23067&func=browse ), please simply pick (and assign yourself) what you want :) Regards, Olivier -- _________________________________________________________________ Olivier Mueller - om(a)8304.ch - PGPkeyID: 0E84D2EA - Switzerland qmail projects: http://omail.omnis.ch - http://webmail.omnis.ch
