Unable to connect to FMS7A via FX.php

Dear Folks,

I'd like to publish an FM7 file to the web using FMS7A and FX.php v3.0. I'm serving from Windows 2003 running IIS 6.0 and PHP 5.0.2.

Following the FX.php in 8 Hours tutorial from FMWebSchool.com, I've set up FMS7A and the web publishing console. I can see the database is available and awaiting publication via IWP and XML. I've confirmed connectivity via IWP.

I'm running into several problems with FX.php. Here is the code:


<html>

<head>



<?php // Initialize Vars

include_once("FX/FX.php");

include_once("FX/server_data.php");

include_once("FX/FMErrors.php");



// create instance per tutorial

$instanceName = new FX($serverIP,$webCompanionPort);

$instanceName -> setDBData('BugTracker.fp7','BugTracker');

$instanceResult = $instanceName->FMFindall();



?>



<title>The Developer Connection</title>



<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<link href="web_style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">



</head>



<body>



<?php

include_once("includes/header.php");



foreach ($instanceResult['data'] as $key => $instanceData)



?>



Found Count: <?php echo $instanceResult['foundCount']; ?> <br />

Error Code: <?php echo $instanceResult['errorCode']; ?> <br />



</body>

</html>

Problem 1)

I get this error:

Fatal error: Cannot use object of type FX_Error as array in d:Inetpubwwwrootphp8show_all.php on line 27

(line 27 is the foreach statement)

Problem 2)

If I change FX.php line 50 to read anything but 'FMPro5/6' or 'FMPro7', the same page will load and return the following values below the header image:

Found Count: -1

Error Code: No Action Taken

It seems like the request is not reaching the database.

What am I missing? What is preventing me from accessing the database via FX.php?

Thanks in advance,

Shannon

I fixed these issues. They appear to be caused by my version of PHP. I abandoned PHP 5.0.x due to access violation and other strange errors. I'm now running 4.3.9 and all is well. Hope this helps.
