Connection problems and other notises and SSI

Owdy · May 16, 2005, 10:32:20 AM

When forum (mysql) goes down, i get white page with warning text. But in main site where i use SSI, that just brokes that page with random php warnings. Quoestion, how can i make my main site use that same error page as forum does? Can i make custom one?

PHP Error Handling

You can look at adding some error handling functions to your SSI.php or on the page in question. There's tonnes of things you can do with errors. Or you can just turn them off.

Code Select

error_reporting(0);

I am not my own host. I cant edit php.ini.

rakuli · May 16, 2005, 11:27:58 AM

You can add it to the script. You don't need to touch the php.ini.

For example you could just go

Code Select

<?php require('ssi.php'); error_reporting(0); ?>
<html>
.....your page
</html>

Hmm,okay. How do i ad it in my main site? Do i make some error.php page or ad that code in my current page? I want it to show only that when fatal error appears.

I use this:

Code Select

<?php
;
$ssi_ban = true;
ob_start();
require("/www/asiakkaat/hoitajat/public_html/foorumi/SSI.php"); if (!$db_connection || !@mysql_select_db($db_name, $db_connection))
db_fatal_error();
if ($maintenance == 2)
	db_fatal_error();
 ?>

It gives correct error notice but with error:

QuoteWarning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /www/asiakkaat/hoitajat/public_html/foorumi/Sources/Subs-Auth.php on line 311

How do i adjust it?

Or better, how can i make my own message?

In your SSI.php you could do something like this for a failed connection to the database.

FInd

// Connect to the MySQL database.
if (empty($db_persist))

$db_connection = @mysql_connect($db_server, $db_user, $db_passwd);
else

$db_connection = @mysql_pconnect($db_server, $db_user, $db_passwd);
if ($db_connection === false)

return false;

Change to

// Connect to the MySQL database.
if (empty($db_persist)){

$db_connection = @mysql_connect($db_server, $db_user, $db_passwd);
                if (!$db_connection){
                echo     "Unfortunately we are unable to connect to the database at this time. Please try again later";
                     exit();

                }
    }
else{

$db_connection = @mysql_pconnect($db_server, $db_user, $db_passwd);
              if (!$db_connection){
                echo     "Unfortunately we are unable to connect to the database at this time. Please try again later";
                     exit();
           }
}
if ($db_connection === false)

return false;

No, i dont want hack SSI.php

Doesn't it already return false when you have problems?

You could do:

$ssi = include('SSI.php');

if (!$ssi)
die;

With basic SSI i get fatal erros, see attacment.

If i use this in top of my page

Code Select

<?php
$ssi_gzip = true;
$ssi_ban = true;
ob_start();
require("/www/asiakkaat/public_html/foorumi/SSI.php"); 

if (!$db_connection || !@mysql_select_db($db_name, $db_connection))
db_fatal_error();

if ($maintenance == 2)
	db_fatal_error();
?>

, i get this:

QuoteWarning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /www/asiakkaat/public_html/foorumi/Sources/Subs-Auth.php on line 311
Connection Problems
Sorry, SMF was unable to connect to the database. This may be caused by the server being busy. Please try again later.

You could do:

$ssi = include('SSI.php');

if (!$ssi)
die;

Thanks, i try that.

You're not going to have template_menu if SMF died.

Tryed this, got blank page

Quote<?php
$ssi_gzip = true;
$ssi_ban = true;

$ssi = include('/www/asiakkaat/hoitajat/public_html/foorumi/SSI.php');

if (!$ssi)
die;
ob_start();
?>

I dont want blank page, i want to show message

[Unknown] · May 16, 2005, 01:33:04 PM

So, instead of die;, use:

{
echo 'Ding, dong, the server\'s dead... the server\'s dead.... please come back later.';
die;
}

LOL, okay

edit: this is perfect solution. Thanks !!

Code Select


<?php
$ssi_gzip = true;
$ssi_ban = true;
ob_start();
$ssi = include('/www/asiakkaat//public_html/foorumi/SSI.php');

if (!$ssi)
   {
   echo 'Serverillä näyttää olevan ongelmia. Ole hyvä ja yritä myöhemmin uudelleen.';
   die;
}
?>

Does that code look okay to you? Im not eaven sure what that ob_start(); is.
