Site works fine on Apache but gives errors in IIS

[SLMHC]

Ive been developing a site on my local Apache box for a friend . His host uses IIS. When i uploaded the site i now get errors and my forms no longer work.

I thought php was cross platform. Is there anything i should automatically change for a move to IIS?

how about starting with telling us the errors you're getting...

try { succeed(); } catch(E) { tryAgain(); } finally { rtfm(); }
i like your sleeves...they're real big

Compare the PHP setup on both machines.
Print out the phpinfo() and compare the settings, it will give clues as to what is different.
This has probably nothing to do with the web server.

Undefined Index's and Constant's.

It's probably a register_globals issue.

How are you referencing the variables that are returned from the form. If you're not using $_POST['name'] or $_GET['name'], that's the problem.

See

http://www.php.net/register_globals

Your errors in php.ini are set to "notice", try changing that to "warning" or higher to match your Apache setup.

Also correct line 5 of div_ale.php. This is the only one that I looked at; anywhere else you entered "localhost" without the quotes needs to be changed.

 

[SLMHC]

The "quotes" on "localhost" seemed to have cleared up one issue.

Not sure what is happening on this page though. Ive added the quotes and am getting another error.

You spelled

localhost

as

locahost

Fix the spelling.

I caught that just after i posted. i should have done this sooner but im now in the process of moving my db connection info to an include file.

the localhost issues are taken care of but my admin entry forms are not working.

http://www.indleagues.com/il30/admin/add_contact_al.php

Error codes are listed and when you add a contact i get a 404.
Both worked on my apache box also running on win2k.

You're getting the 404 error because you're referencing PHP_SELF but should instead be referencing $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] in line 28 of add_contact_al.php

How did I know? I actually looked at the HTML source of the page that script produced.


As far as those "undefined index" errors go:

Insufficient data for a meaningful answer. No one on this site has any idea what lines 5, 6 and 7 of that script looks like.

here it is:

$Team=$_POST['Team'];
$GM=$_POST['GM'];
$Email=$_POST['Email'];

-Dave

 

[sleipnir214]

Then those errors makes perfect sense. If I go directly to that page, I have submitted no form to the script, so $_POST will be empty. So those indeces do not exist.

You're getting those errors because your script assumes the variables will exist. It should check for the existence of the variables in $_POST before trying to use them. isset() and array_key_exists() are two candidates for testing functions.
