PHP Error - Corrupt

"C:\php\php.exe is not valid Win32 application", that's the error message when i tried run pear.bat. first, i thought it's because there's something error with configuration. So strange, because i didn't change any PHP or IIS configuration recently, and PHP-IIS is still run well, i could still run any php script on IIS. And i tried to find the answer on Google, there's no alot solution there, but i found someone's comment in forum, he said the "php.exe" is corrupt.

well that's enough, at least i knew that the error is not on the configuration. so i have to change it with a new one, re-instal it? oh no, re-install is my last solution hehehehe. So tried to find the source file (php-5.0.2-Win32.zip), extracted the file, found "php.exe", then copied it to the place where PHP is installed (ex: C:/php/). Alhamdulillah, it's work :)

So if you got the same error error message ("C:\php\php.exe is not valid Win32 application") like i got, try to find "php.exe", look at the icon, if the icon is just like other DOS files, it mean your php.exe is corrupt (i didn't notice it at the first .. amateur .. hehehe). The good one will have the same icon like "php-cgi.exe" and "php-win.exe". Then you could do the samething like i did. Good Luck

Btw, i you know what could cause the php.exe corrupt, tell me please!

How to Avoid Macro Viruses

Windows user, especially Ms-Word, must be already familiar with “Macro Virus”. Yes it’s suck when your *.doc document get infected with this virus. This virus could change your original text with something else, change the extension into *.exe, or even you could lost your document. This virus is often spread in public computer service, yeah you could find any other viruses at this place, I say it’s the “kingdom” of viruses :p.

But why, MS-Word document can infected by macro virus? It’s happen because the “macro” feature in MS-Word. Actually this feature is usefull for them who often do repetitve task on MS-Word, because macro can do it automatically for you. But, because this feature is using VB Script, this feature can be used to run malicious scripts (the virus).

So how could we avoid this virus? Change your word processor application? No ..no, we could still this our favorite word processor. Remember, Ms-Word still support other document format, it’s *.RTF (Rich Text Format). This kind format does not support macro, so it’s impossible to the viruses to infect and broke our document. But how abot the layout? Don’t worry the RTF layout will be the same as DOC. As long as you never use the macro feature for your document, your document will be safe until printing process. So from now, get use to save your document into RTF, at least make one backup for your document in RTF, just for in case!.

Shortcut Icon / Favicon

Shortcut Icon or favicon is the icon that show at the address bar or tab bar in your browser. The example? Just like this blog, I used a shortcut icon. So how we add a shortcut to our website? It’s easy, just follow this instruction :

1. Make or edit a picture with size 16x16 pixel.
   
2. Save the file into JPG/GIF/PNG format.
   
3. Upload the file to the server.
   
4. Edit your HTML file, add this tag between “head” tag
   

   <link rel="Shortcut Icon" type="image/[format_gambar]" href="[url_gambar]" />

   Contoh :

   <link rel="Shortcut Icon" type="image/png" href="http://geocities.com/ivanoctav/img/icon.png" />

   
   
   at this example I use a “icon.png” file. Your could use any other name of file, but remember to change the type (type="image/..) as the same as your file type.
   
   
5. Test your website with Opera/Netscape/Mozila
   
6. Done!
   

How about IE? We could do the same thing for IE, but IE only support *.ico format, so find image editor that support ICO to make your shortcut icon. If you named this icon as “favicon.ico” and than you upload the file to root server, you don’t have to add any tag between your head tag. Check this out for examples:

http://www.mozilla.org/favicon.ico
http://www.google.com.hk/favicon.ico

and It’s also work for Netscape/Opera/Mozilla.
But if you named the icon with something else (not favicon), you could use the same way just like instruction no.4.

And try to bookmark or save your website as “favorite” .. the shortcut icon will show also there. It’s cool huh?

1. At the desktop, right click "My Computer" icon >> "Manage", until it show windows "Computer Management"
