Hi - I've installed refdb-0.9.7 from source and started to play with the PHP interface, and it gladly accepts any bogus logins and nonexistent databases without complaining. Before digging into the code, I noticed that the PHP code has evolved quite a bit since the latest release, so I decided to try refdb-svn. However, various combinations of different versions of the autotools failed for different reasons. - Which versions of the autotools should I use? - I suggest you hard-code the proper versions inside the refdb-svn script. - Can I simply move the phpweb tree from subversion into the 0.9.7 release tree, and configure, make, install? - It would also be useful to provide snapshot-tarballs to give easy access to the latest code without having to run the autotools. About phpweb: It requires a rather specific php.ini setup for session handling. For example, it requires register_globals to be On, which is against the recommendations. Other settings may clash with requirements by other sites on the same server. What would it take to remove these restrictive session-handling requirements (register_globals, cookies, auto_start)?
