Hi Pete!

I’ve just tried to restore the data from the dump file you
send us. I’ve done this test with ‘magic_quotes_runtimes’
sets to ‘on’ and to ‘off’, with the last versions from both
our CVS tree and… it works without any problem.

I’ll have a look at the second problem you wrote some words
about tomorrow.

Regards,
Loc

Hi Loc

WOW your right LOL, that’s presuming for you, I should have
known better, normally I do not presume anything.

When I tested to see if the upload worked I tried it on a
larger file, when that failed I presumed it was the old
error with the symbols, but it wasn’t! The error that
caused the larger file to fail was a different unrelated
problem.

Presuming that it was the symbol error a made up some small
test data and tested that by copying and pasting it in to
the run query text box. Using the upload feature the test
data does indeed work, but pasting it into the query box
still fails, so it seems half of the problem has already
been sorted.

Hi Pete!

I hope half the work is done in the phpMyAdmin-devel tree:
I’ve used your test db and:
- import it as a file or paste it in to the run query text
box;
- with both the magic_quotes directives turned on and off
(the 4 cases)

… and it seems to work :) Could you confirm?

Now I’m working on the "upload file with php setup in safe
mode" problem. Much more difficult.

Regards,

Hi loic

I have revised the data and can get it to fail in all 4
instances. In the attached file I have included the new
revised data, a backup made through the command line and a
backup made through phpmyadmin.

Re:- Upload in Safe Mode

You have to setup a directory in the phpmyadmin directory
and have the correct permissions set for it, then do
something like this

$tmp_dir = "/www/phpmyadmin/tmp";

if(move_uploaded_file($userfile,"$tmp_dir/$userfile_name"))
{
chmod("$tmp_dir/$userfile_name", 0444);

// read file here

@unlink("$tmp_dir/$userfile_name");
}

I have used this method on my site for some time now and it
works ok.

For your information, the bug is ralated to this line:
INSERT INTO symbolic (id, name) VALUES ( ‘29’, ‘\\\
Back Slash \\\’);
as soon as another insert is request after (lonely, this
line works).

Now the problem is to understand why and it’s a bit
difficult…

Hi loic

>>Now the problem is to understand why and it’s a bit

The problem seems to stem from having an odd number of
slashes in the query.

eg..
value entered
(‘\\ Back Slash \\’)

submitted value, this query will now fail, I think is due
to the 7 slashes on the right.
(\‘\\\ Back Slash \\\\’)

If you now call stripslashes and double the amount of
slashes by using addCslashes, you can get the query to work.

I have done a partial rewrite of db_readdump and attached
the new file. Note this new version no longer needs the
split_string function (lib.inc.php) used in previous
versions, this function is now obsolete.

PS. If you want me to sort out the safe mode file uploads
problem I will, I have done quite a lot of work in this
area.

The special characters bug has been fixed but not yet the
upload in safe mode one.

Is Peter Kelly still working on the "upload in safe mode"
part?

I sent this question in the devel mailing list:

"Someone can tell me where in phpMyAdmin we need to upload and it fails because of safe mode?
I am able here to insert an uploaded text file, and I run in safe mode."

I received no answer, so let’s close this bug.
