Issue with Informix (ifx_connect) - centos

Hi I have a problem after installed informix client sdk (Ref : http://www.debian-administration.org/article/651/Connect_to_Informix_using_PHP5_on_Lenny_x86_64)
OS : CentOS
Here is the .php file that i use to connect
$db_conn = ifx_connect("dbname#IPHost","user","pass");
There is some error here,
Warning: ifx_connect() [function.ifx-connect]: E [SQLSTATE=IX 001 SQLCODE=-1829] in /var/www/html/index.php on line 5
is anyone know the solution ?
Thanks

The way you find more about errors from Informix is often:
$ finderr -1829
-1829 Cannot open file citoxmsg.pam.
The file citoxmsg.pam is missing from the directory $INFORMIXDIR/msg.
If this error occurs, note all circumstances and contact IBM Technical Support.
$
(Give or take some blank lines.) The finderr command is found in $INFORMIXDIR/bin. You need $INFORMIXDIR set in the environment unless /usr/informix is correct - it could be a symlink to the actual software directory.
There are two possibilities:
You have not got INFORMIXDIR set in the environment when PHP is run, and/or the php.ini file does not define a value for $INFORMIXDIR, or the value is set incorrectly, or a default (quite possibly /usr/informix) is being used but the software is not installed there.
The installation is not complete - the relevant message file is missing as noted.
Of the two, I think reason 1 is much the more likely.
The IX001 value for SQLSTATE is of minimal use - it is the generic 'something went wrong with Informix' message. The SQLCODE is much more significant and helpful.

Why does BitBake error if it can't find www.example.com?

BitBake fails for me because it can't find https://www.example.com.
My computer is an x86-64 running native Xubuntu 18.04. Network connection is via DSL. I'm using the latest versions of the OpenEmbedded/Yocto toolchain.
This is the response I get when I run BitBake:
$ bitbake -k core-image-sato
WARNING: Host distribution "ubuntu-18.04" has not been validated with this version of the build system; you may possibly experience unexpected failures. It is recommended that you use a tested distribution.
ERROR: OE-core's config sanity checker detected a potential misconfiguration.
Either fix the cause of this error or at your own risk disable the checker (see sanity.conf).
Following is the list of potential problems / advisories:
Fetcher failure for URL: 'https://www.example.com/'. URL https://www.example.com/ doesn't work.
Please ensure your host's network is configured correctly,
or set BB_NO_NETWORK = "1" to disable network access if
all required sources are on local disk.
Summary: There was 1 WARNING message shown.
Summary: There was 1 ERROR message shown, returning a non-zero exit code.
The networking issue, the reason why I can't access www.example.com, is a question for the SuperUser forum. My question here is, why does BitBake rely on the existence of www.example.com? What is it about that website that is so vital to BitBake's operation? Why does BitBake post an Error if it cannot find https://www.example.com?
At this time, I don't wish to set BB_NO_NETWORK = "1". I would rather understand and resolve the root cause of the problem first.
Modifying poky.conf didn't work for me (and from what I read, modifying anything under Poky is a no-no for a long term solution).
Modifying /conf/local.conf was the only solution that worked for me. Simply add one of the two options:
#check connectivity using google
CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS = "https://www.google.com/"
#skip connectivity checks
CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS = ""
This solution was originally found here.
For me, this appears to be a problem with my ISP (CenturyLink) not correctly resolving www.example.com. If I try to navigate to https://www.example.com in the browser address bar I just get taken to the ISP's "this is not a valid address" page.
Technically speaking, this isn't supposed to happen, but for whatever reason it does. I was able to work around this temporarily by modifying the CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS in poky/meta-poky/conf/distro/poky.conf to something that actually resolves:
# The CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URI's are used to test whether we can succesfully
# fetch from the network (and warn you if not). To disable the test set
# the variable to be empty.
# Git example url: git://git.yoctoproject.org/yocto-firewall-test;protocol=git;rev=master
CONNECTIVITY_CHECK_URIS ?= "https://www.google.com/"
See this commit for more insight and discussion on the addition of the www.example.com check. Not sure what the best long-term fix is, but the change above allowed me to build successfully.
If you want to resolve this issue without modifying poky.conf or local.conf or any of the files for that matter, just do:
$touch conf/sanity.conf
It is clearly written in meta/conf/sanity.conf that:
Expert users can confirm their sanity with "touch conf/sanity.conf"
If you don't want to execute this command on every session or build, you can comment out the line INHERIT += "sanity" from meta/conf/sanity.conf, so the file looks something like this:
Had same issue with Bell ISP when accessing example.com gave DNS error.
Solved by switching ISP's DNS IP to Google's DNS (to avoid making changes to configs):

difference on production system

I have a ZF3 project with a controller which opens excel-files and compares them with an template which will be openened, too.
On my development notebook (xampp) everything works fine, at my production system (ubuntu) the phpspreadsheet causes errors (I think it is the one).
here a snippet from my code:
$fileName="./public/files/" . $fileName; //.\ neu
echo $fileName;
$template= new Spreadsheet();
$importdcl= new Spreadsheet();
$template= \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory::load('./public/files/Template_DCL_final.xlsx');
$importdcl= \PhpOffice\PhpSpreadsheet\IOFactory::load( $fileName);
echo "filename geladen";
I already have the folders in non relative paths because basePath() doesn't work, it won't give any result.
The echo statement is just because the server log won't give any errors. On my development system I get the echo text on my production system the error seems to be at the load statements.
First question: How could I use relative paths in here?
Second question: How can I get an idea wether is something wrong with the spreadsheet class?
This is what composer loaded:
"phpoffice/phpspreadsheet" : "dev-develop",
Is it a problem, because it has this dev version? At this point I'm quite confused because I played with the pathes of the files, I changed the rights manually in the folder, I checked server logs and now I don't have any idea left.
Here the rights in the folder:
Any helpful suggestions appreciated.
Answer (hopefully) to the first question: if your application is based on ZendSkeletonApplication, then you can use paths relative to your application root (from index.php):
/**
* This makes our life easier when dealing with paths. Everything is relative
* to the application root now.
*/
chdir(dirname(__DIR__));
So if your data files are located in <application root>/public/files, then you should be able to read them from controller/service/etc. using public/files/<file name> path. You can test it with eg. the file_exists function.
I’m unable to answer your second question, but here are some suggestions (OK, questions…):
what is the status code of your (production) server’s response?
Do you have read/write permissions to the data files from the server’s account (www-data?)?
Does phpspreadsheet depend on any PHP extensions? Do you have them installed on both your development machine and the server?
What PHP version is installed on the server? Do you or phpspreadsheet use any features that may be unavailable on that version?
Try running your project not through Apache, but with PHP’s builtin server (but don’t do it long-term) and try to reproduce the issue.

Coldfusion FarCry CMS error on start up after server reboot

We're using Farcry CMS which runs on top of ColdFusion. Site was running fine but we are getting this error message after a web server reboot.
"Failed to initialise core type: dmHTML.cfc"
"Parameter 1 of function IsDefined, which is now application.stcoapi.dmHTML.stWebskins.Copy of displayPageCalculatorSelector.displayname, must be a syntactically valid variable name."
Really not sure where to start, could anyone suggest a strategy for troubleshooting this type of error.
Looks like you have a file called "Copy of displayPageCalculatorSelector.cfm" in your dmHTML webskin folder.
Remove this file is the best option.
Or rename it and remove the spaces, e.g. "Copy_of_displayPageCalculatorSelector.cfm"

Shared hosting error on my Zend based Application

I have just sucessfully tested my Zend based application on the localhost.When I deployed it on a shared hosting site I got the error below.It happens whenever I try navigate to protected pages of my application.
Warning: include(/home/davidkag/public_html/prototype/application/models/DbTable//Users.php) [function.include]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/davidkag/public_html/prototype/library/Zend/Loader/Autoloader/Resource.php on line 176
I have a feeling that the double slashes
models/DbTable//Users.php)
are causing this problem.
The error is caused at this particular line in my code:
Fatal error: Class 'Model_DbTable_Users' not found in /home/davidkag/public_html/prototype/application/controllers/AuthController.php on line 24
How do I trouble shoot this problem.Keep in mind that on my localhost machine its working fine.
I would start by creating a new test script, with one line, and see what you get:
include '/home/davidkag/public_html/prototype/application/models/DbTable//Users.php';
Then, remove the double slashes:
include '/home/davidkag/public_html/prototype/application/models/DbTable/Users.php';
If it's still giving you that warning, then either your path is wrong or your file permissions need to be eased.
P.S. You said 'protected pages' -- are those perhaps not in public_html?
I finally found my problem.It was a case issue.Talk of developing on windows and deploying on linux

Why does my Apache2::Log output replace newlines with \n?

I've set up multiple vhosts under apache2 / mod_perl. I used the ErrorLog directive to get a separate error log for each vhost. This only worked as expected when I used Apache2::Log. 'warn' would only log to the regular error log.
So that's all working. Finally. But there's one issue remaining: When I log via $r->log_error, I find that newlines are replaced with \n
Any idea why this happens, and how it can be fixed?
Thanks.
This is not a mod_perl problem, but an Apache one. Apparently there are some security concerns with printing unescaped output to the error logs (I'm not entirely sure why) so you have to explicitly enable this in Apache when building/configuring it using this:
CFLAGS=-DAP_UNSAFE_ERROR_LOG_UNESCAPED ./configure
If you're using an already installed apache, there's not much you can do to change this.
If you have a pre-built install, you can use this line of code to fix the issue but it must be included in every page execution within your vhost, say in a header.php or config.php file.
ini_set('error_log','/var/log/apache2/error.log');
i know this is very old thread, but still coming on top on google results, so just to help all, the following changes in mod_perl.pl did helped me:
comment out below:
BEGIN { *CORE::GLOBAL::warn = \&Apache2::ServerRec::warn; }
the above is for:
Make warnings go to the virtual host's log and not the main server log.
i hope this helps anyone out there like me :)
