Cheers,

I've had a bit of a nightmare....For some reason I cannot use my shell acount at the moment..I've contacted my host (who do provide it!) but I'm still awaiting a response...I have used it extensively before this.Although I know Pear is installed I cannot setup the other modules yet..Because I'm impatient and also exited about this working I tried installing Pear into the root (You can do this with ImageMagick and various other mods sometimes)...I used this installer http://www.phpkitchen.com/article.ph...21201062516970...Just out of interest and as you must know more about this than me. Do you think that this is possible or should I just hold on?? - There is a built in installer for all of the extra mods

I am sorry but i have only root server and due to this i do not have restrictions like that. Otherwise i would have tested it. But if you want to go for it, then try it. Give it a shot. Then we know for other people if it works or not.

I know from other people that they are using PEAR in their root folder and it works for them. So the only question that remains would be: "Will the Geo folder be recognized ?". Let's see what you will tell us. Good luck.

Hi @LL,

i am very sorry but i just discovered a serious bug in the performance enhancements. Under certain circumstances it does not update the new files accordingly. So please add the following changes to your files:

locator.php:

Find:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $fp=fopen("./data/numbers.dat","a");

    fwrite($fp,$result[0]);

    fclose($fp);

Just below add:

PHP Code:


		
			
    $datei = file("$count_data");

Then find:

PHP Code:


		
			
if ( $data_has_changed == "1" )

{

Just below add:

PHP Code:


		
			
   unlink("./data/numbers.dat");

   unlink("./data/users.dat");

Now delete the following files on your server: ./data/users.dat and ./data/numbers.dat. The first view of the page should run all queries but the reload of the page should have just 5 or 6 queries.

Sorry for the inconvenience. Now your locator page should be cached until the number of ZIP codes will change. I will implement this into the next update of the ZIP file.

P.S.: This is also not implemented in the UK version of th?s hack. So please add these changes to the UK version of this hack as well.

Cheers,

I'm still having a nightmare...My host agreed to install the 4 extra mods.The first 2 installed ok but the XML_SVG wouldn't...I have managed to install Pear into my Public_HTML root sucessfully and have installed the 4 mods but as you stated there is still a problem finding GEO...I did some research and evidently if the following is added to the top of every Pear dependant page it should work.

PHP Code:


		
			
<?php

ini_set(

    "include_path", (

        "path/to/your/pear/folder" .

        PATH_SEPERATOR .

        ini_get("include_path")

        )

    )

);

?>

My question is "Is this correct and what files need this adding to?" The site I got this information from is here http://builder.com.com/5100-6371-5163311.html

This is the error I receive after adding the above to locator.php

Warning: main(Geo/Geo.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/clubnu00/public_html/forums/locator.php on line 32

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'Geo/Geo.php' (include_path='home/clubnu00/public_html/pear/PEAR/PATH_SEPERATOR.:/usr/lib/php:/usr/local/lib/php') in /home/clubnu00/public_html/forums/locator.php on line 32

Hello Dave,

there is an easier way to get this running. Let me guess: You can the error message "no stable version/release found" for XML_SVG ? This is correct because they have a problem with the installer. They are working on this issue. As a workaround you have to do the following:

Instead of typing "pear install XML_SVG" you have to download the latest stable version as a tar.gz file from the PEAR website and the install it with "pear install XML_SVG_versionXXXX.tar.gz".

And of course you can not install IMAGE_GIS because this depends on XML_SVG. So if the one of the 3 packages fail you will not be able to install IMAGE_GIS.

Tell this to your provider and he should be able to install all 4 modules and copy the Geo directory into the PEAR directory as well.

Cheers,

Johnny

Pseudomizer - What about this link?: http://forums.devshed.com/showthread.php?t=157248

It's free Zip code database and it's in MySQL. Hope it has the data you need. :D
