I am trying to move a file from one place to another with PHP. All of my attempts have failed. I have tried:
rename("C:\Users\Eli\Desktop\NEWWAMP\wamp\www\Tyler\whaley.html", "C:\Users\Eli\Desktop\NEWWAMP\wamp\www\Tyler\Games\whaley.html");
and:
rename("whaley.html", "Games/whaley.html");
and I get errors for both of those.
See the link for a visual of my problem.

I run this code:
var_dump(stripos($virtualhost[1], "cold="));
echo '----------------------<br>';
var_dump($virtualhost[1]);
And I get the following result:
bool(false)
----------------------<br>
string(206) "<virtual-mta vmta1-cold=\"\">
bla-bla-bla\"
As you can see, the first var_dump directly contradicts the second. What can this be connected with, and how to avoid or circumvent this?
UPD (closer to reality):
<virtual-mta vmta1-cold="">
<domain *="">
dkim-sign yes
dkim-algorithm rsa-sha256
max-msg-rate 1000000/d
max-cold-virtual-mta-msg 1000000/d
</domain>
smtp-source-host there is a certain IP there is a certain domain
</virtual-mta>
For those who are experiencing a similar problem.
In my case, perhaps the point was that I got my array from the contents of the file, which, in turn, was received from the ssh-stream. Here's what I did: I saved this file to local hosting and opened it in notepad. And I saw that the contents of the file are different from my output!
Where I have
<virtual-mta vmta1-cold="">
There was a local file
<virtual-mta vmta1-cold>
... and a few more differences.
My goal was to identify the paragraphs, where after vmta comes this 'cold'. Then I decided to start from the contents of the local file and instead of looking for the cold= fragment I started looking for the -cold> fragment. And it worked.
I'm working on a Laravel application and after some updates I keep getting a comma "," in every http response or console output so I'm crazy trying to find which script file is printing that character.
Is it possible to know which file is writing to the output http response or console?
UPDATE
I've put an echo call in Composer's ClassLoader vendor\composer\ClassLoader.php after an include function for the loaded classes is called, as follows:
/**
* Scope isolated include.
*
* Prevents access to $this/self from included files.
*/
function includeFile($file)
{
include $file; echo $file . "\n";
}
And now the comma appears between the following classes are loaded, is this helpful?
C:\Users\Bla\Bla\trunk\vendor/filp/whoops/src/Whoops/Handler/PrettyPageHandler.php
,C:\Users\Bla\Bla\trunk\vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/AliasLoader.php
C:\Users\Bla\Bla\trunk\vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/ProviderRepository.php
UPDATE 2
Found it! As #vladsch said, it was before an opening tag ,<?php in one of my config files, thanks
Since you have it in HTTP and console then this rules out the views.
The culprit is probably a comma inadvertently inserted before the opening <?php tag. Most likely one of the first ones that is at the top of every PHP file.
Do a search for ,<?php or for regex pattern /\s*,\s*<\?php/
Yes, you can, debugging with xdebug or other debbuger tool, step by step (step into) until you find the script.
See this stackover entry for guiadance.
I strongly recommend use a real debug tool as a good pro practice. But maybe for this particular purpouse its a little overwelming.
You can probably narrow it down with some basic debugging. Add a dd('hello') throughout your application.
I would start in the routes.php file. See if the comma appears before or after the hello. If it is before the hello, then the comma is in one of the bootstrapping files.
If the comma is after the hello, then it is most likely in one of your views etc. Keep moving the dd('hello') deeper into your application until it appears.
No you cannot, that's why you should use a version control system (i.e.: git), so you can easily rollback whenever the system breaks.
In your case you could try to search for comma inside every single files of your working directory (escluding vendor and other unimportant folders such as storage)
If you have a debugger you could try to step into to check every single call from the beggining
I'm designing a web application that can be customized based on which retail location the end user is coming from. For example, if a user is coming from a store called Farmer's Market, there may be customized content or extra links available to that user, specific to that particular store. file_exists() is used to determine if there are any customized portions of the page that need to be imported.
Up until now, we've been using a relatively insecure method, in which the item ID# and the store are simply passed in as GET parameters, and the system knows to apply them to each of the links within the page. However, we're switching to a reversible hash method, in which the store and item number are encrypted (to look something like "gd651hd8h41dg0h81"), and the pages simply decode them and assign the store and ID variables.
Since then, however, we've been running into an error that Googling extensively hasn't found me an answer for. There are several similar blocks of code, but they all look something like this:
$buttons_first = "../stores/" . $store . "/buttons_first.php";
if(file_exists($buttons_first))
{
include($buttons_first);
}
(The /stores/ directory is actually in the directory above the working one, hence the ../)
Fairly straightforward. But despite working fine when a regular ID and store is passed in, using the encrypted ID throws this error for each one of those similar statements:
Warning: file_exists() expects parameter 1 to be a valid path, string given in [url removed] on line 11
I've had the script spit back the full URL, and it appears to be assigning $store correctly. I'm running PHP 5.4.11 on 1&1 hosting (because I know they have some abnormalities in the way their servers work), if that helps any.
I got the same error before but I don't know if this solution of mine works on your problem you need to remove the "\0" try replace it:
$cleaned = strval(str_replace("\0", "", $buttons_first));
it worked on my case.
Run a var_dump(strpos($buttons_first,"\0")), this warning could come up when a path has a null byte, for security reasons. If that doesn't work, check the length of the string and make sure it is what you'd expect, just in case there are other invisible bytes.
It may be a problem with the path as it depends where you are running the script from. It's safer to use absolute paths. To get the path to the directory in which the current script is executing, you can use dirname(__FILE__).
Add / before stores/, you are better off using absolute paths.
I know this post was created on 2013 but didn't saw the common solution.
This error occurs after adding multiple to the file submit form
for example you are using files like this on php: $_FILES['file']['tmp_name']
But after the adding multiple option to the form. Your input name became file => file[]
so even if you post just one file, $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'] should be change to $_FILES['file']['tmp_name'][0]
I wish to write the response of hitting a given url into the href attribute of an anchor tag using PHP. How can I do this?
Here's an example of what I excpect to happen
mylink.com/getdoc?name=documentA
returns a string as a response:
mylink.com/document2012-03-15.pdf
I need to write this response (using PHP into the href attribute as shown below:
Open Document A
(so the above will be the final source of my page.
I think there are a few ways to do what you want. Not all of them will work exactly as you ask for, but the end result should be the same.
Solution one
My first possible solution was already posted by #shanethehat. You could use file_get_contents to call your PHP script via HTTP and get the response.
Solution two
Another possible solution was suggested in the comments of the post by #YourCommonSense. You could simply include the getdoc script in the PHP script that is generating your HTML file, like this:
$_GET["name"] = "documentA";
echo " Open Document A ";
Solution three
Or you could change the way the getdoc script works. You could use a script more like this:
header("Content-type:application/pdf");
header("Content-Disposition:attachment; filename=\"{$_GET["name"]}\"");
readfile($_GET["name"]);
And you keep your link like this: Open Document A . When getdoc.php is called, it will get the specified file and start a file download.
NOTE: you should probably do some input sanitization with this method (removing slashes, making sure the file ends in .pdf, etc) to make sure someone doesn't try to get a file they're not allowed to get.
That's all I'm coming up with at the moment. There might be a more clever way to do it, but hopefully one of these solutions will do it for you. I would try solution 2 or 3 first, and if they don't work out for you, then go with solution 1.
<?php
//get output from URL
$myfile = file_get_contents('http://mylink.com/getdoc?name=documentA');
?>
Open Document A
How to write response to file using php
Noway.
PHP do not process HTTP requests.
You have to set up your web server to do the rewrite.
There are 100500 questions under mod_rewrite tag, you will find the solution easily.
Note that you may wish to rewrite your url to /getdoc.php?name=document2012-03-15.pdf, not one you mentioned in your question
So I've got all of this really neato PHP code and I've started doing some reuse with functions out of necessity. I'm debugging, trying to figure out why I can't delete comments on my website while I'm deleting folder (because who wants orphaned comments?)
So I have a call to deletefolder( $parent) inside a file called deletefolder.php. This a function that will recursively traverse my tree structure.
I've include another file inside deletefolder.php. The file is call helpers.php, and it contains the deletefolder function.
The deletefolder function calls deletecomments (kills all the comments per file) and delete file (which kills the file itself).
Now, all of it is just slathered with echo statements to help me figure out what's going on. When I call this combination of functions from other locations I don't seem to have a problem getting messages. But when I call them from the deletefolder.php page I don't get any. Does anybody know why this would be the case?
A few things you might want to verify.
Check the source of the output. You might be echoing straight in a middle of a HTML comment or a tag which is hiding the output.
Are you using output buffering (ob_start()) ? You might be clearing the buffer at some point in your code and forgot all about it.
Different files with the same name but not in the same directory. Do a die() in your function to make sure it actually reaches your code. You might be editing/including a copy of your file (happened to me quite a few times).
Well, I seriously doubt you've found a bug in the echo command, so the problem is with your program logic somewhere. Without seeing your code, it's impossible to say really. Perhaps there's some variable being set or unset unexpectedly, or you're not actually include()ing the files properly.
