Обсуждение: UPDATE - Changing Password
Hi.
Does anyone know how to use UPDATE with PHP for changing a password? I've
tried the following code:
$query = "UPDATE patperinfo SET trim(password)='$newpw' WHERE
trim(gpid)='$gpidno'";
$result = pg_exec($database, $query);
where new $newpw & $gpidno are the values entered into a form then passed to
the script.
I get the following error:
Warning: PostgreSQL query failed: ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "("
at character 27 in /home/webpages/yamkedoo/Tests/chpw1.php on line 48
where the error is on the line: $result = pg_exec($database, $query);
Thanx :-)

I don't know why you'd trim a fieldname while setting it.

Hi.
I think i've sorted the previous problem now, it was a stupid error on my
part. But the update is still not working.
I'm using the following script:
else
{
$gdidno = addslashes(trim($formgpid));
$newpw = addslashes(trim($formnewpw));
/*$newpw1 = addslashes(trim($formnewpw1));*/
$query = "UPDATE gpinfo SET password='$newpw' WHERE gpid='$gpidno'";
$result = pg_exec($database, $query);
if(!$result)
{
print "There was a problem accessing the database";
exit;
}
else if(pg_numrows($result)!=1)
{
print "Update Failed\n";
exit;
}
else
{
print "Update Successful\n<BR>";
}
}
It is just printing Update Failed now. Can u see where i'm going wrong?
Visit the following link: www.cyber.brad.ac.uk/~yamkedoo/Tests/chpw.html
Username: jjsanderson
Password: sanderso
Then on the next page, GP ID: GP000001
New Password: hello
and ignore retype password for now. As u can see, it is printing update
failed. Can u see the prob?
Cheers

Hi.
I have changed the code as suggested, but still no luck, and a new error.
The error is:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pg_affected_rows() in
/home/webpages/yamkedoo/Tests/chpw1.php on line 55
I used the following code:
if(!$database)
{
echo "Connection Failed<BR>";
exit;
}
else
{
$gdidno = addslashes(trim($formgpid));
$newpw = addslashes(trim($formnewpw));
$newpw1 = addslashes(trim($formnewpw1));
$query = "UPDATE gpinfo SET password='$newpw' WHERE gpid='$gpidno'";
$result = pg_exec($database, $query);
if(!$result)
{
print "There was a problem accessing the database";
exit;
}
else if(pg_affected_rows($result)!=1)
{
print "Update Failed\n";
exit;
}
else if($result)
{
print "Update Successful\n<BR>";
}
}
I tried removing this section of the code: else
if(pg_affected_rows($result)!=1)
{
print "Update Failed\n";
exit;
}
as this is where the error is, then got "Update Successful", but the
password had not been updated.
Any ideas?

This means that you are using a PHP version < 4.2.0 . Use pg_cmdtuples()
instead.

In this case, this just means that the query is either failing or not being
committed. 1) verify that the query should execute successfully--i.e. have
your script output the $query value and then use that in the command line
interface; 2) is the query executing in a transaction? There may be server
configurations forcing the issue. To make sure, send "COMMIT" before closing
the Db connection or ending the script. If you get a "no transaction" error,
then this isn't the problem.

After you set the variable $query, print it out.
>
> $query = "UPDATE gpinfo SET password='$newpw' WHERE gpid='$gpidno'";
print "My Query: " . $query;
> $result = pg_exec($database, $query);
What does it print out? Then try copying that and running it directly in
postgresql. If your query is failing, you can debug it that way.

Hey.
I'd like to thank everyone who helped me. I was able to fix the code by
printing the query to c wat was wrong, and also, pg_cmdtuples( ) was very
useful :-).
Does anybody know how to find out what version of PHP i may be running?
Thanx Again

Hi Yasmine,
One way to find out all about your PHP installation is to save this as a
script (php_info.php):
<html>
<head>
<title>PHP server info</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php phpinfo(); ?>
</body>
</html>
Then put it somewhere accessible from your web server and load it up in your
browser
Cheers
