@calguy, I sent you the files for adding this to the Admin Panel.

@everyone - you can see it in action at:

Great - like it, want it .

777 needed? i don't think so..

Directory Permissions:

    * tmp/cache - 0700
    * tmp/templates_c - 0700
    * uploads - 0705
    * modules - 0705


results from the umask test might be helpful, but using the actual username might pose a privacy risk (if report is posted to the forums).. perhaps a check against common known "server" usernames and then just use 'user' if its not one of those? for instance, on this particular site, it reports:

Umask: 072
Owner: (user)
Permissions:
  Owner: Read,Write
  Group:
  Other: Read


could also pull in other 'non-sensitive' config options like default_upload_permission (604 above, btw), auto_alias_content, the various URL settings, and perhaps the default cmsms language...

FYI - There's been a "System Info" module for quite a while.

Okay, I took NullG's files and severely hacked the heck out of em

Primarily I moved everything into smarty.

This is all committed to svn now, so anybody running 1.4 svn can see the code and the checks.
I'd like somebody to take this now that I have a good example running and add

a) config information
b) range checking for php version, memory limit  (and display in red, or yellow or something).
c) gd checks (check if gd is found)
d) session save path writable (and display in red if not)
e) better database information
    (so if we are using postgres, etc ,etc, or leave this out, it's rarely a problem).

and anything more we can think of.

I'm happy to answer any technical questions.

Are there any Postgre users out there who can help me in trying to find the Postgre equivalent of mysql_get_server_info().

I tried:
but it makes the script abort at that point.

I've never used Postgre, so I'm stuck here.

Hello,

@Nullig : according to http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-version.php pg_version() doesn't deliver a boolean value as http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.pg-ping.php pg_ping(). But I'm not a PHP coder. And http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.p ... status.php could give more parameters/infos. €0.02.

Yes, as PierreM say that value is a array

I use this:

switch($config['dbms']) //workaroud: ServerInfo() is unsupported in adodblite
{
    case 'postgres7': $v = pg_version();
                        $_server_db = $v['server_version'];
                        break;
    case 'mysql':
    case 'mysqli':      $v = mysql_get_server_info();
                        $_server_db = substr($v, 0, strpos($v, "-"));
                        break;
}

Code: Select all

case 'mysql':
case 'mysqli':       $v = mysql_get_server_info();

mysql_get_server_info() is a function from the 'mysql' extension.

For 'mysqli' it is mysqli_get_server_info() (or use mysqli_get_server_version()).

Thanks, alby and Wiedmann. I've incorporated your suggestions. If anyone uses PostgreSQL or MySQLi, can you check to see if it works?

Thanks,

ok test and work:

switch($config['dbms']) //workaroud: ServerInfo() is unsupported in adodblite
{
        case 'postgres7': $v = pg_version();
                                $_server_db = (isset($v['server_version'])) ? $v['server_version'] : $v['client'];
                                break;
        case 'mysqli':  $v = $db->connectionId->server_info;
        case 'mysql':  if(!isset($v)) $v = mysql_get_server_info();
                                $_server_db = (false === strpos($v, "-")) ? $v : substr($v, 0, strpos($v, "-"));
                                break;
}

Nullig test in SVN too
