I am new to all this testing server terminolgy. For the last 6 days I have
read everything I can find on installing php/mysql, IIS as a testing server.
IIS, MySQL, PHP installed and apparently working but since I have never had
any experience with any of them I can't be sure.
WinXP Pro
IIS
PHP 4.3.4.4
I am on chapter 2 of Welling and Thompson PHP and MySQL book which is for an
earlier version of php.
Once I discovered this I was able to change some of the ini settings to get
it working.
There are two pages I am working with entered as called for in the book:
orderform.htm and processorder.ph p
The submit buttom calls the processorder.ph p and executes the php
statements, sets the variables, echo to the screen preforms calucations
etc., until I get to the fopen() function and I get the message below.
Warning: fopen(http://localhost/phptest/orderfile/orders.txt): failed to
open stream: HTTP wrapper does not support writeable connections. in
c:\inetpub\wwwr oot\phptest\pro cessorder.php on line 56
Warning: flock(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in
c:\inetpub\wwwr oot\phptest\pro cessorder.php on line 57
Your order could not be processed at this time. Please try again later.
The relevant code section:
$outputstring = $date."\t".$tyr eqty." tyres \t".$oilqty." oil\t"
.$sparkqty." spark plugs\t\$".$tot al
."\t". $address."\n";
// open file for appending
$fp = fopen("http://localhost/phptest/orderfile/orders.txt", "a+");
flock($fp, 2);
{
echo "<p><strong > Your order could not be processed at this time. "
."Please try again later.</strong></p></body></html>";
exit;
}
fwrite($fp, $outputstring);
flock($fp, 3);
fclose($fp);
echo "<p>Order written.</p>";
?>
In the IIS console I selected the phptest/orderfile folder and checked read
and write.
I have read the help on stream and it makes no sense to me at all.
I am totally frustrated at this point. I have been going around in circles
and am no closer to getting the problem soved than I was 6 days ago.
Any advice, suggestions, links etc will be greatly appreciated.
