Gmail Contacts Importer

aussie123 · 01-26-2007, 08:19 PM

I was hoping someone here experienced with PHP and Gmail can help me find this error in my Gmail Contacts Importer script.
It was working just fine a while ago but now I get the following error after i enter the username and password of my Gmail user account and press the submit button.

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/mysite/public_html/louis/gmail.php on line 117

The Following is the code on line 117

foreach ($snapshot2->contacts as $item2) {

The following is the full code in the PHP file that contains this error.

Code:

<?php
require("libgmailer.php");
if($_POST['login'])
{
$php_userid = $_POST['login'];
$php_password = $_POST['passwd'];
$sender = $_POST['login'];
 
$gmail_acc = $php_userid;
$gmail_pwd = $php_password;
$gmail_tmz = "+2";
$gm = new GMailer();
$gm->setLoginInfo($gmail_acc,$gmail_pwd,$gmail_tmz);
if ($gm->connect()) {
showList($php_userid,$php_password,$sender);
}
else{
login_form("ERROR: Invalid User Name or password");
}
 
}
else
{
login_form("");
}

Can anyone help me out here PLEASEEEEE

Ok. I'll bite. My first guess is that "$snapshot2->contacts" is not populating. Try adding an echo there to write out the value before attempting to read it. or add some error trapping to fail if it's null.

Hey thanks for the advice here but unfortunately i do not know any php or programming.
Any chance you can show me what i need to add to the script to try and fix it.
Thanks for your help here.
Regards
Lance

Fraid not. The problems you're having are almost certainly environmental. I can't duplicate your issues without your environment. But you don't really need a lot of PHP skills to trouble shoot this. Try this. Find the line:

PHP Code:


			
foreach ($snapshot2->contacts as $item2) {

Then put this over it:

PHP Code:


			
print_r($snapshot2->contacts);

And try this under it:

PHP Code:


			
echo $item2;

So it looks like this:

PHP Code:


			
print_r($snapshot2->contacts);
foreach ($snapshot2->contacts as $item2) {
echo $item2;

The print should display the entire source object. The echo should display the individual item being looped through. Hopefully, that will give you a little hint. If not, you may need to try a different importer.
