I am trying to add a Captcha as part of a big application form.
Getting the following error:
session has already been started by session.auto-start or session_start()
How can I get around this as behind the scenes it uses:
// Process metadata specific only to this namespace.
Zend_Session::start(true); // attempt auto-start (throws exception if strict option set)
I instantiate it in the Controller:
$this->view->captcha = new Zend_Form_Element_Captcha('captcha', array(
'captcha' => array(
'captcha' => 'Figlet',
'wordLen' => 6,
'width' => 300,
'height' => 100,
)
)
);
In the View:
<?php echo $this->captcha; ?>
I can't tamper with current session as it holds a lot of information. Is there a workaround?
Help would be appreciated.
You can do one thing in this case, try starting your Zend session in bootstrap file in below way and set that session object in registry:
protected function _initSession() {
$userSession = new Zend_Session_Namespace('user_session');
Zend_Registry::set('userSession', $userSession);
}
After this you will be able to get session object anywhere from registry.
$userSession = Zend_Registry::get('userSession');
Since you will start your Zend Session before session_start() so it might not produce any error.

I'm using hostfact https://www.hostfact.nl for our billing. Now I want to extend the code and get a loop on executing the internalAPI in hooks.php. I tried to find an answer in the documentation https://www.hostfact.nl/developer/api/ but without success.
// When a client is edited, the bankParameters are checked and validated.
// That is only an example
function action_debtor_is_edited($parameters){
$params = array(
'DebtorCode' => $parameters['DebtorCode']
);
$hostfactResult = internalAPI('debtor', 'show', $params);
$bankParams = array(
'Identifier' => '2',
'AccountNumber' => 'AT6734080000000000',
'AccountBank' => 'test bank',
'AccountCity' => 'city',
'AccountBIC' => 'RLNODASD'
);
$bankResult = internalAPI('debtor', 'edit', $bankParams);
}
I've already asked the support and got follwoing answer:
One of the option is keeping track of the situation. For example, use
a static or global variable. When you call an (internal)API call from
a webhook, first flag that variable, so in the newly called webhook
you know that is not needed to execute the webhook again (at least not
the part which causes the loop). In the original call, after receiving
the result, the flag can be unset again.
My Problem is, I'm new to PHP and don't understand what I should do to avoid the loop. The $bankParams variable is intentionally hardcoded.
Can you help?
Given that I have a WHMCS addon that I call 'my_addon'. I created the main addon file 'my_addon.php' which does contain nothing than:
<?php
function my_addon_clientarea($vars) {
$client = null;
return array(
'pagetitle' => 'My Addon',
'breadcrumb' => array('index.php?m=my_addon'=>'My Addon'),
'templatefile' => 'views/myaddon_view',
'vars' => array(
'client' => $client
)
);
}
This does basically work. It does give me my template file, everything is passed through. My question is: How do I get the currently logged in client from within that function?
I didn't find any API method and I can't see any constant which does hold this information.
There must be a way to get the current client within the clientarea? Thanks for your help!
For those who do come after me and have the same problem: it's easy to solve. Turned out, that I just had to think it through... I found the client id to be available in the $_SESSION-variable.
So, if you are looking for the client's id:
<?php
function my_addon_clientarea($vars) {
$clientid = $_SESSION['uid'];
// And so on...
}
The official way to get current user information is:
$currentUser = new \WHMCS\Authentication\CurrentUser;
$user = $currentUser->user();

I don't know if this is possible or if it's a complete madness but I'm trying to execute a PHP method from AJAX call using OctoberCMS Ajax Framework(I assume that this uses jQuery behind it) and is not working because I never get redirect to PayPal site. The PHP code I'm trying to get working is this one:
protected function onExecutePurchaseMethod()
{
Omnipay::gateway('PayPal_Express');
$params = [
'username' => $this->username,
'password' => $this->password,
'signature' => $this->signature,
'testMode' => $this->sandboxMode,
'amount' => Session::get('amountToReload'),
'cancelUrl' => url( 'payment/step4', "", $secure = null ),
'returnUrl' => url( 'payment/step2', "", $secure = null ),
'currency' => 'USD'
];
$response = Omnipay::purchase($params)->send();
if ($response->isSuccessful()) {
var_dump($response);
} else {
var_dump($response->getMessage());
}
}
What is happening since none redirect to PayPal is executed and page is getting stuck many times forcing me to close the browser and reopen again, no method is executed and no visible errors. It's possible to do what I'm trying to do? Is not a madness? If it's possible where is my error?
As extra info I'm using Barryvdh Laravel-omnipay package for handle Omnipay from within Laravel.
After looking briefly through the documentation, my best guess is that you're missing a required field for the purchase() method. I believe you need a card parameter (even if it's an invalid one) to get it to process.
I'm trying to add a User Note while programmatically adding a user. I've been working quite successfully from Joomla 3.0 Register user with php script, but am unable to figure out how J32 adds a note - in model notes.php, the save function is commented out, so it's a deadend for me while I figure out all this marvelous new version of the best CMS out there.
Is there some method to do this - an equivalent to registering like $model->addnote,
i couldn't find a method but here is the script i have used within my own plugin. All seems to work correctly
protected function _addNote($vars) {
$now = new JDate();
$now = $now->toSql();
// Create and save the user note
$userNote = (object) array(
'user_id' => $vars['id'],
'catid' => 0,
'subject' => "User Information Update By Proworx",
'body' => "<p>User ".$vars['name']." has been updated to:</p><p>Name: ".$vars['name']."</p><p>Email: ".$vars['email']."</p><p>Password: Not Telling... check proworx</p>",
'state' => 1,
'created_user_id' => 332, //DONT FORGET TO CHANGE THIS VALUE TO YOUR SITES ADMIN
'created_time' => $now
);
$db = JFactory::getDbo();
$db->insertObject('#__user_notes', $userNote, 'id');
}
I would like to connect to a second database with Yii at runtime. The database name would come from a database table after the user to login.
I saw in a tutorial I should do this:
$db2 = Yii::createComponent(array(
'class' => 'EMongoClient',
'server' => 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017',
'db' => $emp['database']
));
Yii::app()->setComponent('db2',$db2);
But in my controler when I access Yii::app()->db2 get the error:
Property "CWebApplication.db2" is not defined
What am I doing wrong?
The following works for me:
Yii::app()->mongodb->setActive(false);
Yii::app()->mongodb->setServer('mongodb://localhost:27017');
Yii::app()->mongodb->setDb('db1');
Yii::app()->mongodb->setActive(true);
UPDATED: Try, instead instance, pass configurations:
Yii::app()->setComponent( 'db2', array(
'class' => 'EMongoClient',
'server' => 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017',
'db' => $emp['database']
)
);
Or, you may create special index on params in configurations, such as:
...
'params' => array(
'db2' => null,
),
And the use Yii::app()->params['db2'] = $db2
From this comment:
My problem is not with the creation of the component. Soon after
creating if I access Yii::app()->db2 its works, but when I try to
access via another model or controller I get the error
I think you are setting this component only once somewhere, and then making subsequent requests to different controllers.
You need to put the code, somewhere it is being called EVERYTIME, on every Request. thats how PHP works, there is no "global application state"
by default Yii comes with protected/components/controller.php has base controller for the rest of the app.
my suggestion would be to put your code on the init() method of that controller, so that it always gets called.
You mentioned the database name comes from a table once the user logs in, so you need to save that value in the session, in other to be able to access it in the other requests:
<?php
// After login in
Yii::app()->user->setState('db_name', $db_name);
// in protected/components/controller.php
public function init()
{
if (!Yii::app()->user->isGuest) {
$db2 = Yii::createComponent(array(
'class' => 'EMongoClient',
'server' => 'mongodb://127.0.0.1:27017',
'db' => Yii::app()->user->getState('db_name')
));
Yii::app()->setComponent('db2',$db2);
}
}
Hope it helps, I am assuming many things here :)
