Attention djbob: Last night I found a very large (30.65 MB) core file inside one of my public directories: byrondallas.heliohost.org/php/tools/core.22338 so I thought I would leave it until this morning and see if it removed itself but I found it still there. So thinking it was just some server glitch I just went ahead and removed it. Then later this morning I was talking with a friend and this is what they told me: Don't have any idea if what happened to me has anything to do with what my friend told me but thought it a good idea to let you know. Byron

Does it just HAVE to be written that way? Will this not work for you? <form name="" method="post" action="" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded"> <select name="jump" size="1" onChange="location.href=(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value)"> <option> - Links - </option> <option value="http://">Link</option> <option value="http://">Link</option> <option value="http://">Link</option> <option value="http://">Link</option> <option value="http://">Link</option> </select> </form>

If that is the final word than I guess I*ll have to live with it. I really don*t use ImageMagick that much but it*s nice to have. I*m really not that versed in php scripting and can*t answer you as to why to use "command-line" over GD. A friend of mine wrote the scripts: http://www.lingolinda.com/2008/scripts/IM/ImageMagick.php and is more knowledgable about ImageMagick than I am, but she also uses GD so maybe she can help me figure out how to do it differently? btw, while I*ve got your attention, were you able to do a server build over the weekend and enable Ming? That same person "LingoLinda" is the person who I will be studying Ming with. Thanks djbob, Byron EDIT: I just realized something djbob, the url you posted is Imagick. Can you enable Imagick for me? I would much rather have Imagick than command-line anyway.

I just discovered that all of my ImageMagick scripts that use this command line no longer work anymore? exec ("/usr/bin/convert $IN $GRAVITY $CROP -trim +repage $OUT"); They give me this error here: http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/php/tools/simple-crop.php http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/php/tools/simple-crop.txt Can this be fixed or is it a permanent thing? Thanks, Byron

That'll be great djbob, thanks! Byron

Hey djbob! I read in the Heliohost PHP that I could request Ming if I wanted it. I have a couple of friends that are going to be playing around with Ming in the next week or so and I thought it would be fun to join in for the experience of it, so if it's no problem I would like to request that Ming be enabled. Thanks, Byron byrondallas.heliohost.org

The Earth is flat and I know this cause I drove to the edge and was thinking about flying to the edge of space but I didn't have enough gas.

I was thinking about doing the same thing but wanted to wait for your reply before going ahead with anything. Thanks again djbob, your a good man! btw, the new ImageMagick is even better than before. Loaded with even more features.

1: RESOLVED - thanks! 2: RESOLVED - thanks! 3: RESOLVED - thanks! 4: So if I delete the neomail folder only, will that delete anything I shouldn't be deleting? Byron

Thanks Wizzard! Yes I understand file permissions and how to change them and all my cgi/perl files are set to 755. Nothing was changed on my end after the move. Even my .shtml files inside the cgi-bin aren't showing either. As far as the cron permissions go, I don't have access to: /usr/bin/crontab to change permissions I don't think? But my crons still seem to be woking, just not showing me the settings. I don't think there is anything I can do but wait for djbob to check into it? Thanks, Byron

Hey DJ Bob, first let me say thanks for the great service you provide, HelioHost is the best. I was just moved to the new server (Stevie) yesterday and have a few issues to go over. None of my files inside my cgi-bin seem to be working although they are all there. Says can't be found: http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/time.pl On my cron manager none of my cron settings are showing up, (I have two crons that run once a day), but they seem to still be working. And it is showing this message on the cron manager page: /usr/bin/crontab permissions are wrong. Please set to 4755 Is ImageMagick enabled on the new server? I have several php scripts that use the command line and a perl script that uses ImageMagick. They worked fine on the old sever but aren't working now. Or maybe the path is different? Is Neo Mail no longer available on the new server? If not do I just delete the entire neo folder in my user directory and then choose another web mail? Thanks, Byron

Those .htaccess codes DO NOT have to be used in conjunction with the password script that I posted. I was just giving a couple of examples of what you could do with .htaccess if you were going to use it anyway.

The password protection just gives you another option besides making a directory password protected. But if your going to use .htaccess anyway, here's a neat little trick that will keep you from typing in your password each time. After you've set up password protection on a directory, go back and configure your .htaccess file like this: AuthName "Restricted Access" AuthUserFile "/home/user/.htpasswds/public_html/directory/passwd" AuthType Basic Require valid-user Order allow,deny Allow from 100.200.300.195 Satisfy any Just replace 100.200.300.195 with your ip and your ip doesn't have to enter the password, but all others do. This way if your on another pc, you can still access your files with a password. Or simply not have a password at all and only allow your ip access: order deny,allow deny from all allow from 100.200.300.195

Looks like Calvins side kick Hobbs! That is funny!

I didn't write this script, a friend of mine did (DJ Mike) and it works really well. Just rename it to anything .php and change password to your own password and change $path to directory you want files moved to. Uses the copy function http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/scripts/pswd_file_mover.txt

Anticipation my friend, anticipation! Dialup sux don't it, LOL! I'm on dialup too : (

Anybody into php art? I didn't write this, a friend of mine did. Thought this was pretty cool though. Should refresh with a new image every few seconds http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/test/worm.html Script http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/php/worm.txt Image http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/php/worm.php Byron

Thanks Meriadoc, that worked out great! http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/time.pl I have a couple of cgi files that need to be in the public_html directory and one is already password protected and I can protect the other with htaccess. Now hopefully you can help me out with just one more little problem? Is there anyway to enlarge the small textarea on the edit page? Thanks, Byron

Hello Helio, Can cgi scripts be run in any other directory besides the cgi-bin? And if not, can this be cahnged? Does't work in public_html or any other directory http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/time.pl Works fine in cgi-bin http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/time.pl Thanks, Byron

I'm sorry I guess I should have given more information. Yes I have tried loging in with the correct username and pass, (all in lower case) without success. I didn't realize that after I was sent the cpanel login url that I would have to wait for validaton. So maybe 24 hrs and I should be able to login? Thanks, Byron NOTE: (edit) I just found my answer on my home page:

Hello, I've just created a new account (ads) and am unable to log into cpanel. Please help! http://byrondallas.heliohost.org/cpanel Thanks, Byron
