[Phpmyadmin-devel] a PHP 5.1.2 bug?
by Marc Delisle 15 Jan '06

15 Jan '06

Hi, while trying Stewart Morgan's patch, I found this situation and would like your advice before opening a PHP bug. Look at this sample code: <?php $the_query = "INSERT INTO `aaa` (`f1`, `f2`) VALUES ('1', 'aaa')"; preg_match('@INSERT\sINTO\s\`([^\`]+)\`@iu', $the_query, $error_table = array() ); print_r($error_table); ?> On PHP 5.1.0-RC4 I get Array ( [0] => INSERT INTO `aaa` [1] => aaa ) On PHP 5.1.2 I get Array ( ) If I change to preg_match('@INSERT\sINTO\s\`([^\`]+)\`@iu', $the_query, $error_table); it works. Is it supposed to be wrong now to use the $error_table = array() syntax? Marc

[Phpmyadmin-devel] Permissions check in CVS
by Cyber Dog 13 Jan '06

13 Jan '06

Hi all, and happy holidays! I just updated my several weeks old CVS, and I'm having a permissions problem. When I try to log in, I get the error "Wrong permissions on configuration file, should not be world writable!". I traced this back to an update on 12/8: * libraries/Config.class.php: Refuse to load config file with world writable permissions, refuse to work with existing config dir. No matter what permissions I set on my config.inc.php, I get the error, even after I remove basically all permissions. I'm running on Windows 2003/NTFS/PHP 5.1.1/IIS 6. I'm curious if anybody's tested the CVS on this platform yet, since that update. I'm out of ideas how to fix it short of commenting out the source. - Matt

[Phpmyadmin-devel] MySQL-Error #1062 - Duplicate entry
by Stewart Morgan 12 Jan '06

12 Jan '06

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, I've noticed an "undefined offset" error in common.lib.php:736 v2.7.0pl2 when "manually" inserting a row with a duplicate primary-key value. The attached patch adds to mkkeck's update for feature request #1036254 by extracting the table name from "INSERT INTO" as well as "ALTER TABLE"; there are probably others too.

[Phpmyadmin-devel] problem with PMA_array_merge_recursive()
by Marc Delisle 06 Jan '06

06 Jan '06

Hi, can someone have a look at this, as I'm not familiar with this function. Here is my problem: in config.default.php we have $cfg['ForeignKeyDropdownOrder'] = array( 'content-id', 'id-content'); If in config.inc.php I put $cfg['ForeignKeyDropdownOrder'] = array( 'content-id'); the effective $cfg['ForeignKeyDropdownOrder'] after the merge contains 2 values and not just one are I configured. This problem can potentially happen with any directive containing an array. Marc

[Phpmyadmin-devel] how to set variables from $_REQUEST
by Marc Delisle 06 Jan '06

06 Jan '06

Hi, here is what I did in tbl_change.php: /** * Sets global variables. * Here it's better to use a if, instead of the '?' operator * to avoid setting a variable to '' when it's not present in $_REQUEST */ if (isset($_REQUEST['pos'])) { $pos = $_REQUEST['pos']; } if (isset($_REQUEST['session_max_rows'])) { $session_max_rows = $_REQUEST['session_max_rows']; } if (isset($_REQUEST['disp_direction'])) { $disp_direction = $_REQUEST['disp_direction']; } if (isset($_REQUEST['repeat_cells'])) { $repeat_cells = $_REQUEST['repeat_cells']; } if (isset($_REQUEST['dontlimitchars'])) { $dontlimitchars = $_REQUEST['dontlimitchars']; } if (isset($_REQUEST['primary_key'])) { $primary_key = $_REQUEST['primary_key']; } if (isset($_REQUEST['sql_query'])) { $sql_query = $_REQUEST['sql_query']; } ----------- I had to get variables from $_REQUEST to fix bug #1381856. I think we'll have to do this everywhere, to avoid getting "undefined variable" errors when fetching something that might not be present in $_REQUEST. Comments? Marc
