I am trying to set up a web server behind a Thomson Speedtouch 510 modem, but I can't get the server visible. I think I need to do some NAT/NAPT stuff, but don't know what. I know that the internal IP address of my site is 10.0.0.1. I use ZoneEdit to deal with the dynamic IP problem. Had...

I have just bought a Thomson Speedtouch 510 and am having difficulty configuring it so that my web server is visible to the outside world. Previously I had been running quite happily for a year or so with a Speedtouch USB modem, an ADSL line, dynamic DNS using the DirectUpdate program to update...

I am currently having a problem with all my birthday style appointments (i.e. those 1 day repeating every year appointments) from synchronising. The error messages are as follows. This WAS working until fairly recently, but seems to have stopped for some reason which I don't understand. Any...

Need to use dynamic addresses? No problem!! www.zoneedit.com has the answer. And best of all, it's for free! (Gosh, I sound like a sales rep for ZoneEdit - I'm not, they simply have a wonderful service for free so I don't mind helping their 'business' model!). ZoneEdit is a free service that...

I have a problem where MySQL seems to get stuck in an infinite read. I don't know how, or worse how to find out what is causing it or how to stop it. It grinds the system gradually to a halt. I see the number of I/O reads (from Task Manager) go up and up continually - e.g. I stopped things at...

I'm not too clear why I would want to use ServerName or what it does? What happens if I use 127.0.0.1 as a server name in a production environment? e.g. From httpd.conf # # If you use Apache strictly for # local testing and development, # you may use 127.0.0.1 as # the server name. #...

I am not sure how to structure directories and/or Apache in order to work in the best way possible. I used to work just locally (Windows XP) with localhost and each application had a different sub-directory in the Apache htdocs directory, e.g.: /htdocs/phpMyAdmin /htdocs/hangman /htdocs/phpBB...

Thanks for your quick and accurate help: DirectoryIndex is exactly the command I needed. :) And thanks too to RhythmAce for letting us know that it was Baghdad Bob who wrote the page http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.apache2.php ;)

Firstly, though I've been using Apache locally for over a year now, I'm new to Apache setting up, so easy with me! I am looking to set up my own server, and want it to auto-magically load my first PHP page. I have set up Apache 1.3.27 on my system with PHP (having first installed Apache 2.0...

I am trying to nest quotes as follows, and using the escape character, but I still get a JavaScript error message. http://www.localpin.com/quote_problem.html <input type=button value=OK onClick=&quot;javascript:window.opener.return_category(109359, '\&quot;Warburton...

I have a location table with fields: loc_key country_key unique_loc_name I eventually want to create a unique index on country_key + unique_loc_name, but at the moment the unique_loc_name is not unique for a given country_key! So, I need to dig out all those rows which are not unique. So...

Surf to www.localpin.com and you will see I have a whole heap of the following errors: Warning: open_basedir restriction in effect. File is in wrong directory in /home/.nephele/localpin/localpin.com/class/form/FormFactory.class.php on line 3 What I know (I think!), is that the machine...

Well you could knock me over with a bent piece of wood! Thanks Boomerang!! Stunning. :)

Nice try boomerang! But I'm boomeranging it back, 'cos that doesn't seem to be the problem... ALL the div tags have been removed. In fact all the WEBBOT stuff has been thrown out. Problem still there. Take another look at the even more simplified http://www.localpin.com/tektips.htm...

OK, check out this URL: http://www.localpin.com/tektips.htm Looks pretty unaligned to me. (Note, it's supposed to look REALLY ugly - it is hugely simplified from the normal site pages, in order to show the problem). Thanks, Hugh
