6. Troubleshooting Common Issues

Issue 1: Database Connection Error

// Check in config.php error_reporting(E_ALL); ini_set('display_errors', 1); // Test database connection $conn = new mysqli('localhost', 'root', '', 'product_review'); if ($conn->connect_error) { die("Connection failed: " . $conn->connect_error); } echo "Connected successfully";

Issue 2: Image Upload Fails

// Check upload directory permissions $upload_dir = __DIR__ . '/assets/uploads/'; if (!is_writable($upload_dir)) { echo "Upload directory is not writable"; // Fix permissions: chmod -R 777 assets/uploads/ } // Check PHP configuration ini_get('upload_max_filesize'); // Should be at least 5M ini_get('post_max_size'); // Should be larger than upload_max_filesize

Issue 3: Email Not Working

// Test basic mail function $to = "[email protected]"; $subject = "Test Email"; $message = "This is a test email from Product Review System"; $headers = "From: [email protected]"; if (mail($to, $subject, $message, $headers)) { echo "Email sent successfully"; } else { echo "Email sending failed"; } // For Gmail SMTP, enable "Less secure app access" or use App Password

7. Security Best Practices

// 1. Password Hashing (already implemented) $hashed_password = password_hash($password, PASSWORD_DEFAULT); // 2. SQL Injection Prevention (using prepared statements) $stmt = $conn->prepare("SELECT * FROM users WHERE email = ?"); $stmt->bind_param("s", $email); // 3. XSS Prevention echo htmlspecialchars($user_input, ENT_QUOTES, 'UTF-8'); // 4. CSRF Protection session_start(); if (!isset($_SESSION['csrf_token'])) { $_SESSION['csrf_token'] = bin2hex(random_bytes(32)); } // In forms <input type="hidden" name="csrf_token" value="<?php echo $_SESSION['csrf_token']; ?>"> // Validation if (!hash_equals($_SESSION['csrf_token'], $_POST['csrf_token'])) { die('Invalid CSRF token'); } // 5. Rate Limiting $ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']; $key = 'rate_limit_' . $ip; $limit = 10; // requests per minute if (apcu_exists($key)) { $count = apcu_fetch($key); if ($count > $limit) { die('Too many requests'); } apcu_inc($key); } else { apcu_store($key, 1, 60); } // 6. File Upload Security $allowed_types = ['image/jpeg', 'image/png', 'image/gif']; if (!in_array($_FILES['image']['type'], $allowed_types)) { die('Invalid file type'); } // 7. Session Security ini_set('session.cookie_httponly', 1); ini_set('session.use_only_cookies', 1); ini_set('session.cookie_secure', 1); // For HTTPS only

8. Deployment to Production

# 1. Update configuration for production # Edit includes/config.php define('DB_HOST', 'production_db_host'); define('DB_USER', 'production_user'); define('DB_PASS', 'strong_password'); define('APP_URL', 'https://yourdomain.com'); # 2. Disable error reporting error_reporting(0); ini_set('display_errors', 0); # 3. Set up SSL certificate # Use Let's Encrypt for free SSL sudo apt install certbot python3-certbot-apache sudo certbot --apache -d yourdomain.com # 4. Configure .htaccess for security

# .htaccess file RewriteEngine On # Force HTTPS RewriteCond %{HTTPS} off RewriteRule ^(.*)$ https://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1 [R=301,L] # Prevent directory listing Options -Indexes # Protect sensitive files <FilesMatch "^\."> Order allow,deny Deny from all </FilesMatch> # Security headers Header set X-Frame-Options "SAMEORIGIN" Header set X-XSS-Protection "1; mode=block" Header set X-Content-Type-Options "nosniff"

# 5. Set proper file permissions find /var/www/html/product-review -type d -exec chmod 755 {} \; find /var/www/html/product-review -type f -exec chmod 644 {} \; chmod 600 /var/www/html/product-review/includes/config.php chmod 755 /var/www/html/product-review/assets/uploads/

9. Backup and Maintenance

# Database backup script (backup.sh) #!/bin/bash BACKUP_DIR="/var/backups/product-review" DATE=$(date +%Y%m%d_%H%M%S) DB_NAME="product_review" DB_USER="root" DB_PASS="your_password" # Create backup directory if not exists mkdir -p $BACKUP_DIR # Backup database mysqldump -u $DB_USER -p$DB_PASS $DB_NAME > $BACKUP_DIR/db_$DATE.sql # Backup files tar -czf $BACKUP_DIR/files_$DATE.tar.gz /var/www/html/product-review/ # Delete backups older than 30 days find $BACKUP_DIR -type f -mtime +30 -delete # Log backup echo "Backup completed at $DATE" >> $BACKUP_DIR/backup.log

# Schedule automatic backups (crontab) # Run daily at 2 AM 0 2 * * * /bin/bash /var/scripts/backup.sh # Monitor system resources # Create monitoring script #!/bin/bash CPU=$(top -bn1 | grep "Cpu(s)" | awk '{print $2}' | cut -d'%' -f1) MEM=$(free -m | awk 'NR==2{printf "%.2f", $3*100/$2}') DISK=$(df -h | awk '$NF=="/"{printf "%s", $5}' | cut -d'%' -f1) if (( $(echo "$CPU > 80" | bc -l) )); then echo "High CPU usage: $CPU%" | mail -s "Alert: High CPU Usage" [email protected] fi

10. Performance Optimization

// 1. Enable caching // In includes/functions.php function getCachedProduct($product_id) { $cache_key = "product_$product_id"; $cached = apcu_fetch($cache_key); if ($cached !== false) { return $cached; } $product = getProductFromDatabase($product_id); apcu_store($cache_key, $product, 3600); // Cache for 1 hour return $product; } // 2. Optimize database queries // Add indexes for frequently queried columns ALTER TABLE products ADD INDEX idx_category (category_id); ALTER TABLE products ADD INDEX idx_status (status); ALTER TABLE reviews ADD INDEX idx_product_status (product_id, status); // 3. Use pagination for large datasets $limit = 20; $offset = ($page - 1) * $limit; $query = "SELECT * FROM products LIMIT ? OFFSET ?"; // 4. Lazy load images <img src="placeholder.jpg" data-src="actual-image.jpg" class="lazy-load"> // 5. Minify CSS and JavaScript // Use tools like UglifyJS and CSSNano
