Description: ------------ I'm Bakr Alsharif from Egypt, I had to post this bug to you, Because it's in a function called "i2c_go" which is being used in all php.net mirrors The file is : (./includes/ip-to-country.inc) required files : (./backend/ip-to-country.idx) , (backend/ip-to-country.db) Details :- I was using the same function with the same files as descriped above, and when i tried some ips to get their countries' codes the country was "NA" while the ip is already recorded in the "db" file. For example try the following ip : {217.144.8.107} and you sould have the following results so the country code should be JOR, But the function will return "NA" Real IP = 217.144.8.107 Long IP = 3650095211 Record Number = 50661 Record Value = 36500930563650097151JOR When I debuged the function i got the problem. First, the function "i2c_go" uses the "idx" file to speed the search , so it gets the start and the end of the possible records in the "db" file by calling the "i2c_search_in_index" function. When using the ip in the example the start and end will be 50616 : 51254 After getting those values the "i2c_go" function calls the "i2c_search_in_db" to start the real search in the "db" file. that function "i2c_search_in_db" opens the "backend/ip-to-country.idx" file and sets the file position indicator to the starting record returned by the "i2c_search_in_index" function, like this fseek($ipdb, $idx[0]*24); the "$ipdb" is the db file handler and "$idx[0]" is the index start and "24" is number of bytes in each line. In our case with the ip in the example it will set the file pointer to the END OF LINE "50661" So when we use "fread" we will read from line "50662" NOT line "50661" and that will make us never find the right record because we has just skipped it. So we land on "NA" instead of "JOR". To Solve this problem , we should set the file pointer to the END of line "50660" so we can search from line "50661" which returned from the i2c_search_in_index function. The "fseek" code line should be fseek($ipdb, ($idx[0]-1)*24); I hope everything was clear. Thanks for your time, Bakr Alsharif http://systurn.com bakr_fathy@yahoo.com ++20127809973
