I am using nusoap library to connect to Kintera API.  It worked fine on my other sites, but this one was giving me the following error message:

Fatal error: Uncaught SoapFault exception: [Client] SoapClient::SoapClient() [<a href=’soapclient.soapclient’>soapclient.soapclient</a>]: Invalid parameters in /test.php:147 Stack trace: #0 /test.php(147): SoapClient->SoapClient(‘KinteraConnect….’, true) #1 {main} thrown in /test.php on line 147

Line 147 has the following code:

$client = new soapclient($wsdl,true);

After reading up online a bit, it seems this error appears on PHP 5 servers because of class name conflicts. So I opened up nusoap.php file and figured that you could just use nusoap_client as a class name. Code piece from nusoap.php

if (!extension_loaded('soap')) {

/***    For backwards compatiblity, define soapclient unless the PHP SOAP extension is loaded.*/

class soapclient extends nusoap_client {

}

}

So I just went ahead and changed

$client = new soapclient($wsdl,true);

to

$client = new nusoap_client($wsdl,true);

and it fixed it.

Task:

1. allow file downloads for only registered users in Drupal
2. for admins, show download count for each file
3. show which user downloaded which files

The download_count module is great for #1 and #2. However, it doesn’t save any information about users.

Here’s some modifications I’ve added to it to accomplish #3.

In the download_count.module file, find download_count_file_download() function. It saves the information about downloaded files into “file_downloads” table.

• I created another similar table, called it “file_download_users” (columns: filename, user_id, timestamp) where I am going to save information about each download and keep user IDs.
• Made sure I use global $user in this function
• Insert the information about users into my new table:

db_query(“INSERT INTO {file_downloads_users} (filename, user_id, timestamp) VALUES (‘%s’, %d,%d)”, $filename, $user->uid, time());

Now I write my own hook_user function:

<?php/**

 * Implementation of hook_user()

 */



function download_count_user($op, &$edit, &$account, $caterory = NULL) {

  if ($op == 'view') 

  {

   

   $result = db_query("SELECT filename FROM file_downloads_users WHERE user_id = %d", $account->uid);



   while ($file_array = db_fetch_object($result)) {

      $file_str .= $file_array->filename . '<br/>';

   }

     $account->content['summary']['file_downloads'] =  array(

      '#type' => 'user_profile_item',

      '#title' => t('File Downloads'),

      '#value' => $file_str,

      '#weight' => 1

    );

        

  }

  

}

?>

The above is Drupal 6 version. First I wrote one for Drupal 5 and it just didn’t work for me, until some nice fellow from StackOverflow pointed out the difference between 5 and 6 when it comes to handling user hooks.

Here’s the Drupal 5 version:

<?php

function download_count_user($op, &$edit, &$account, $caterory = NULL) {



  if ($op == 'view')

  {

    $result = db_query("SELECT filename FROM file_downloads_users WHERE user_id = %d", $account->uid);



    while ($file = db_fetch_object($result)) {

      $file_str .= $file->filename . '<br/>';

    }

   $items['downloads'] = array(

    'title' => t('Files'),

    'value' => $file_str,

    'class' => 'member'

    );

    return array(t('Downloads')=>$items);

 }

}

?>

Now when you login into your user account after downloading some files, you’ll see that info displayed as a part of your user profile:
