I'll make a long story short. A PC was given to me a couple days ago and it won't turn on. I know it was operating normally until well....it stopped turning on.

I popped the case and when the PC...

That is exactly what I thought, but the above connection information works on windows. I didn't try changing the parameters around on the linux install since they worked under windows. Your...

Sorry for the late reply; the machine in question is in another lab. Here's the output of ifconfig and /etc/network/infaces


from ifconfig:

I have a static ip set up for a dual-booting pc (windows xp and ubuntu). Windows is able to connect to the internet, however, ubuntu cannot. In fact, under ubuntu, I cannot even ping anything...

OK. Solved. Everyone may now yell at for not applying Occam's Razor to this problem. The user I was testing the webpage under did not have permission to access or update the Flight table. This is...

Yep, I have a query above this one that does execute.

This is what I'm trying to do. The user is reserving so many seats for a given flight. I'm wanting to subtract this number from the number of total seats on the plane. I.E. $total_seats =...

$query = "UPDATE Flight F SET F.seats = F.seats-1 WHERE (F.fid = 3)";
$result = mysql_query($query);

if($result){
echo 'The database has been updated. Preform whatever you choose in this...

I was looking for a change in the database itself.

mysql_error() doesn't give me anything for this query.

Thanks,

from php it looks like this:
$query = "UPDATE Flight F SET F.seats = F.seats-$rseats WHERE (F.fid = $fid)";
$result = mysql_query($query);

I tested it from the mysql command prompt first though...

Quick synopsis. I have a home page that takes user information in an html form and sends it to the user page. The user page attempts to log them in to the mysql database. What I want to be able to...

Hrm. Maybe I read through this too quickly, but a simple conditional may be able to solve your multiple page problem as well. Let's say you have a variable $name you get from a form and would like...

I'll have to second the php/mysql idea. The interface would be handled through a browser (no, it won't require internet) so finding someone with some html skills should be easy. Php is a scripting...

I'm automating the creation of mysql accounts through php. I'd rather not involve the root user when creating these accounts so I created an 'employee' account to do this for me. The main job of...

My school has windows/mac/sun/linux computer labs. In terms of linux we used suse until this summer. Now it's all ubuntu ( :D ). The switch happened when all the linux machines were replaced with...

Ah. Excellent idea. I love using little shell scripts whenever I can. I made a little one to move all my php file changes to /var/www and send backups to another machine. Thanks for the idea.

Subject line says it all. I use gedit to modify about 7 or so files for a mysql/php project. Opening them all individually is annoying. I know editors I've used in the past (like kate) could...

I can honestly say that game has consumed more hours for me than any other game.

I'm going to replace 'best' with 'favorite' in the title. And I think I'll get blasted for this title but...Final...

HAHAHAHA. Nice.
I use if for everything I did on windows and more. World domination is also a hobby.

Just stick it out and let them amuse you. If nothing else this means an easier class setting and work load for you and more time for you to pursue your own interests. I've grown fond of working...

I bet everyone with an iPhone agrees they are better than the freerunner lol.
Very cool that it's foss but the form factor of that thing kills me. Throw some useful buttons in all the empty land or...

In the last year I've used a Blackberry Pearl/Curve and iPhone. It's a toss up for me between the curve and iphone. I dislike the pc software suite for Blackberries almost as much as itunes. The...

I still can't seem to change it. Not sure where to proceed now. :confused:
I wonder if something from compiz is causing this...
