I hope I'm not hijacking the thread here. I'm having an issue that I think is related. I'm using Thunderbird with mail.mydomain.com on port 587 as my SMTP server. On sending, I get a warning that the certificate associated with mail.mydomain.com really belongs to m****here.biz. By turning...

I didn't add the code formatting so my text was unclear. Sorry for that. Add: error_reporting (E_ALL); at the top of your code to set error output to all....actually, you'll want that for only debugging. It will output all sorts of warnings, messages, and errors and clutter your page from...

Thanks Stephen. A CF restart is a pretty extreme step! The workaround I came up with will suffice. Thanks for the reminder about CF and its operations. The only CF work I do nowadays involves this customer's site. I've moved entirely to PHP and have forgotten that CF is actually a server not...

With the upgrade in systems, perhaps there's a new php.ini that's hiding the errors? Try adding error_reporting (E_ALL) to see if you get the php errors; I suppose you might need to also disable your custom handler. Your sample script uses a short opening tag. Try using <?php instead. Other...

A client tried to "hide" a page by renaming it via FTP. But, the page still loaded. E.g. page was at www.domain.com/originalpage.cfm Client renamed file to originalpage2007.cfm But, www.domain.com/originalpage.cfm still loaded in the browser (Ctrl+Refresh didn't force new page load...

It's still better to name all the fields you need rather than use *. You'll get a bit better performance, be sure of what you're getting, and you can use field aliases (select reports.column1 as rc1, reports.column2 as rc2, etc.) Tim

Thanks Stephen. This is for a client of mine that has been with me since I started and while not a million dollar/year client, they have been a good consistent source of income. So likewise, I'm going to do what needs to be done to make them happy. I found some system requirements at...

Anyone have experience with Act for the web? I've got a client thinking he wants me to install it on a web server (VPS). From what I can tell from the skimpy info about this product on the Sage web site, it's typically installed on a PC in the office. But that would present various...

Thanks Stephen. I just submitted a ticket. Tim

I'm trying to prevent direct access to PDF files on a client's web site. They have a CMS that blocks a page with links to these files. But, somehow Google found the PDFs and my client is upset that their "private" files are accessible. Given that they're on Windows and I can't use an htaccess...

Did you find anything? I have a client who has asked on and off for years for this sort of feature for his e-advocacy site. There's the Interfax service http://www.interfax.net/en/dev/webservice/index.html (Prices at http://www.interfax.net/scripts/prices.asp?lang=en) I've never used...

Thanks Stephen, what you describe is the likely chain of events. These messages all showed up as being sent at 9:14 this morning. A clog in the queue is basically what I told my client. But, I wanted to make sure I wasn't saying anything worse than my usual level of dumb. Tim

On a client's site, I use phpMailer to send out contractor information request emails. They got a batch of roughly a dozen of these yesterday all supposedly sent within a few seconds of each other. The messages appear to be legitimate and not the result of a spammer trolling for an insecure form...

@tomzzzy -- Thanks! That did it. That was the solution I knew must be hidden in there someplace. Many thanks, Tim

Oh man, why didn't I think of changing the creation date. :O I did try reordering the items on the front page with the Front Page manager as you said. It had no effect either. I'll go with the creation date "fix." Thanks! Tim

Sorry for posting here and not on some Joomla forum. I rarely use this CMS so I'm not really in tune with the "proper channels" for help. Anyway, I'm trying to figure out why articles on a client's web site are being sorted by their entry order rather than by the order I have set within the...

Good thought. But, I'm thinking the best solution is to get telcove to fix their gear. My client's ISP serves a huge swath of Long Island so I'll bet the problem is affecting lots of folks. Thanks, Tim

Thanks for the reply Stephen. I didn't think you could resolve it. But this is beyond my area of expertise. I'm just hoping for some info that I can pass on to them. I'll see if I can find a tech contact at telcove (or level3.com who seems to have bought telcove). Tim

So, my client is able to connect to their site about 40% of the time. I got them to do a trace route. When it works, the trace route looks like this: Tracing route to www.renewableenergylongisland.org [204.14.107.243] over a maximum of 30 hops: 1 6 ms 6 ms 5 ms 10.33.96.1...

Stephen, Isn't that just an in-bound connection limit? Goodness, I have iTunes connected to radioio70s.com, Trillian connected to AIM & Yahoo, an IRC client, plus Firefox and IE with various open tabs all the time. I have a couple of file share connections open all the time. On occasion I...
