dru145 has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Monks,

I'm trying to add records to a MySQL database using DBI. The format that I'm using to add it to the db works when I print it to command line. Here is what it looks like:
IP = 192.168.30.136 Cname = WKBX0010B-A Port = 135 Service = DCE endpoint resolution Banner = IP = 192.168.30.136 Cname = WKBX0010B-A Port = 80 Service = World Wide Web HTTP Banner = HTTP/1.1 200 OK..Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0..Date: Thu, 14 Mar + 2002 14:37:54 GMT..Connection: Keep-Alive..Content-Length: 1270.. IP = 192.168.30.136 Cname = WKBX0010B-A Port = 139 Service = NETBIOS Session Service Banner =
I'm trying to do the same thing with DBI, but I'm getting weird results. I would like the db to look like this
+--------------+----------------+----------+---------+--------+ | ip | svr_name | port | service | banner | +--------------+----------------+----------+---------+--------+ | 192.168.30.136 | WKBX0010B-A | 135 | DCE endpoint resolution + | NULL | | 192.168.30.136 | WKBX0010B-A | 80 | World Wide Web HTTP + | HTTP/1.1 200 OK..Server: Microsoft-IIS/5.0..Date: Thu, 14 Mar 20 +02 14:37:54 GMT..Connection: Keep-Alive..Content-Length: 1270.. | | 192.168.30.136 | WKBX001B-A | 139 | NETBIOS Session Service | NUL +L | +--------------+----------------+----------+---------+--------+
Here is my code that I thought would work (note most of the file matching code was written by danger):
#!/usr/bin/perl -w use DBI; use strict; my $infile = './portscan2.txt'; my %data; my ($ip,$port); open INFILE, "$infile" or die "Can't open $infile: $!\n"; while (<INFILE>){ if (/(\d+\.\d+\.\d+\.\d+)\s+(\S+)/) { $ip = $1; $data{$ip}{cname} = $2; next; } if(m/^\s{1}\|___\s+(\d+)\s\s(.*)/){ $port = $1; $data{$ip}{ports}{$port}{service} = $2; $data{$ip}{ports}{$port}{banner} = ''; next; } if(m/^\t\s{1}\|___\s+(.*)/){ $data{$ip}{ports}{$port}{banner} = $1; next; } } my ($sth,$i,$j); ### Enable error checking my %attr = ( PrintError => 0, RaiseError => 1, ); ### Connect to database my $dbh = DBI->connect("DBI:mysql:audit", 'username', 'pass', \%attr); for $i (keys %data) { for $j (keys %{$data{$i}{ports}}) { $i = $dbh->do("insert into Supersearch set ip='$i',svr_name='$data +{$i}{cname}',port='$j',service='$data{$i}{ports}{$j}{service}',banner +='$ data{$i}{ports}{$j}{banner}'"); } } ### Disconnect from db $dbh->disconnect; exit;
I appreciate any help

Thanks,
Dru

    Well, you don't say what the problem is, but your SQL is incorrect, at least. Furthermore, you're setting your outer loop control variable, $i, to the result of your DBI call, which seems very odd. Try something like this (note, untested):

    $dbh->do( "insert into Supersearch (ip, svr_name, port, service, banner) values (?, ?, ?, ?, ?)", undef, $i, $data{$i}{cname}, $j, $data{$i}{ports}{$j}{service}, $data{$i}{ports}{$j}{banner}) or die $dbh->errstr;
    To explain: an insert statement takes a values clause, not a set clause. Also, the do statement in DBI allows you to use placeholders, which are much better for avoiding quotation problems.

    What is the problem you are having? Try adding this after your $dbh->do() ...

    die( $dbh->errstr() ) unless ( $i );

    Let us know what you get. If it does not crash, try adjusting the trace level in DBI to 2.
