That is almost always an error in your code somewhere, a more detailed error should be available in the PHP Error log if you're using an IDE with syntax checking, there's actually probably a red squiggle somewhere in the file you're trying to open too

i got this mssg but idk what mean or where i look

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

i can show u all my codes + idk what IDE mean

Jochem•8mo ago

the log is more useful, can you copy/paste (instead of screenshot) the messages before and after that? IDE is something like VSCode or Jetbrains, a specific editor with bells and whistles to write code more efficiently actually, yeah, your code would be handy. Please share it in a codeblock, you can start one with ```php and end it with ```, each on their own like

this one for connection with db

 php <?php
ini_set('session.use_only_cookies', 1);
ini_set('session.use_strict_mode', 1);

session_set_cookie_params([
    'lifetime' => 1800,
    'domain' => 'localhost',
    'path' => '/',
    'secure' => true,
    'httponly' => true
]);

session_start();

if (!isset($_SESSION["last_regeneration"])) {
    regenerate_session_id();
} else {
    $interval = 60 * 30;
    if (time() - $_SESSION["last_regeneration"] >= $interval) {
        regenerate_session_id();
    }
}
function regenerate_session_id()
{
    session_regenerate_id();
    $_SESSION["last_regeneration"] = time();
}

 php <?php
ini_set('session.use_only_cookies', 1);
ini_set('session.use_strict_mode', 1);

session_set_cookie_params([
    'lifetime' => 1800,
    'domain' => 'localhost',
    'path' => '/',

session_start();

if (!isset($_SESSION["last_regeneration"])) {
    regenerate_session_id();

    $interval = 60 * 30;
    if (time() - $_SESSION["last_regeneration"] >= $interval) {
        regenerate_session_id();
    }
}
function regenerate_session_id()
{
    session_regenerate_id();
    $_SESSION["last_regeneration"] = time();
}

Change that last line to thi:

    header("Location: ./index.php");

    header("Location: ./index.php");

the formatting of that string is very important

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

i put ( ./) cz its is another file wait let me show the rest of codes

php <?php 
$host = 'localhost';
$dbname ='loginsystem';
$dbusername = 'root';
$dbpassword='';

try {
    $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=$host;dbname=$dbname" , $dbusername, $dbpassword);
    $pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
} catch ( PDOException $e) {
    die(" Connection Failde:" .$e->getMessage());   
}

php <?php 
$host = 'localhost';
$dbname ='loginsystem';
$dbusername = 'root';
$dbpassword='';

try {
    $pdo = new PDO("mysql:host=$host;dbname=$dbname" , $dbusername, $dbpassword);
    $pdo->setAttribute(PDO::ATTR_ERRMODE, PDO::ERRMODE_EXCEPTION);
} catch ( PDOException $e) {
    die(" Connection Failde:" .$e->getMessage());   
}

Jochem•8mo ago

did changing that line work?

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

nah

Jochem•8mo ago

and without the .?

    header("Location: /index.php");

    header("Location: /index.php");

or even without the /

    header("Location: index.php");

    header("Location: index.php");

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

it worked '-' without .

Jochem•8mo ago

yeah, I thought . wasn't allowed in Location headers, but second guessed myself

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

that all my files

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

they are sepreted from each other that why i put .

Jochem•8mo ago

that's not quite how the Location header works I assume you're including signup.inc.php from index.php? The browser and even the webserver will only see index.php, and that's who you're talking to with header().

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

oh thnx alot men i rly appreciate ur help am crying cz i spent like 3 days searching XD

Jochem•8mo ago

glad to help! Errors can be annoying and cryptic sometimes, and there's a lot of background knowledge that you build up over time to help figure out what the problem is, it takes time 🙂 Feel free to ask sooner though, the channel's always here and if you solve your issue yourself before anyone answers, you can answer the question yourself and someone else might find the answer to their problem!

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

alright man thnx again @Jochem bro the same sht happen again the error back x( am gonna quite ik

Jochem•8mo ago

what is the error in your log file this time?

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

same one as bfr

Jochem•8mo ago

is there another header call in a different file with the same problem?

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

yeah there is but i write them as u said

Jochem•8mo ago

the error is exactly the same in the log file? you're sure it isn't the error from an earlier request?

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

nah am sure its the same

Jochem•8mo ago

try searching all your code files for 'location ' with the space, you mus've missed one somewhere

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

php  creat_user($pdo, $username, $email, $pwd);
        header("location :/index.php?signup=success");

php  creat_user($pdo, $username, $email, $pwd);
        header("location :/index.php?signup=success");

i only add this

Jochem•8mo ago

That should be fine, as long as you change it to Location: /ind... location isn't the same as Location and the header you want is Location

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

even tho if am gonna try my error system this mssg appear in am face i tried everything XD with L or l i rewrite the code like 5 time am watching tutorial and am doing the same thing but idk why this happened to me only he writed the header location with ../ and worked for him fine

Jochem•8mo ago

You removed the space between location and : and added one after the :?

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

yeah i removed it worked once and i got the log in user info in ma db but it stopped after

Jochem•8mo ago

is it still printing fresh versions of the error to the log? If not, it might be a caching issue

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

i got another one

[Sat Oct 21 14:50:42.138041 2023] [php:error] [pid 13952:tid 1812] [client ::1:55933] script 'D:/xampp/htdocs/index.php' not found or unable to stat, referer: http://localhost/loginsystem/

this one appear just now the requested url is not found in this server

Jochem•8mo ago

try removing the / then, so header('Location: index.php?signup=success');

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

same error 😦 the new one this time

Jochem•8mo ago

how are you refreshing the page?

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

old way am not pressing f5 i save everything in mt VS and refresh the webpage its the 404 error

Jochem•8mo ago

right, so if you change that location, you'll have to resubmit the form instead of just refreshing the 404 page

ItsAmjed•8mo ago

i think i solved now let me double check everything is work well now uuuf i rewrited me location header with ../ and i checked for pervious codes and found that that some codes have < now i only need my css to appear my error in my page

Jochem•8mo ago

cool, nice that it's solved 🙂
