New Comment:
I am at a loss here - I am a developer for a large company and do not
have a choice as to which web platform I can use - IIS is the tool I
have to work with.
I have been using php on IIS but this growing percentage of CGI errors
on my applications is forcing me to consider using a different
application server, as it does not appear at this time that it will be
resolvable.
Is there ANY hope, or should I just switch to a different application
server, as I do not feel that it is acceptable for my applications to
recieve a significant % of errors.
If anyone has any suggestions please email me - ps - switching to an
open source web server is not an option I can entertain at this time :(

frankielam,
You've hit the nail on the head. It's a problem with IIS. This DOES NOT
HAPPEN *EVER* with Apache. IIS is not able to handle multiple
simultaneous calls to php.exe.
The question is now ... how the hell do we get Micro$haft to fix this?
They are about as responsive to bugs likes this ... as a brick wall! I
wish this was a PHP error because the lads at PHP are usually quite
responsive to bugs.
Anybody have any suggestions on how to get Bill to listen? I've tried
calling support, posting messages, no luck. We have switched all our
servers over to RedHat and the ones that MUST remain Windoze are
running Apache Web server.
It still should be noted that changing the Performance options can
greatly reduce the occurence of the CGI error. Unfortunately, it does
not eliminate it.

I can reproduce the error with the php script below(a simple script
that do nothing but keeps refreshing itself with a different value of
parameter passed into it as GET, REMEMBER to open serveral instances to
run it.). IMHO, this is not a database problem(neither mysql nor
mssql), and this might be a problem that IIS cannot handle sucha high
frequent call to `php.exe', and it does assume that php.exe returns
nothing!! (Am I right? :-D)
doit.php
8<-----------------------------------------------
<?
echo "<html><head><title>testing</title>";
if (isset($_GET["times"]))
$times = ($_GET["times"]) + 1;
else
$times = 0;
//SEE??? even i comment the statement out, infamous cgi error occurs,
STILL!
//$conn = mssql_connect('127.0.0.1', 'sa', '') or die("couldn't
connect");
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"Refresh\" content=\"0; URL=doit.php?times=" .
$times . "\"></head></html>";
echo "Trying CGI";
echo "<BR>$times";
//header("doit.php");
?>

My config.:
Windows 2000 Advanced Server with SP3
PHP 4.3.1 / 4.2.3 (both tested to have CGI problem)
MSSQL Server 2000

Hello bugbrowsers (same comment as 12700, but this thread is better),
I tried too unsuccessfully : -background perf -mdac -admin and various
other commented things above, on IIS w2kSrv & NT4 , php 4.*<=4.3.1 :-(
I had the problem on /phpmyadmin subdir, protected by ACLs.
And only with far-tracerouted client machines.
* I SUCCEEDED with unchecking "directory-security /
allow-anonymous-access" (which is theorically useless because there is
no IUSR_* in the acls of php pages below).
I hope it can help desperate hostmasters, and php-dev-community to
track this @#%! bug.

I solve the error replacing:
$q=odbc_do($conex,"selec....");
for a calling to a function:
function ODBC($conex,$sql){
return odbc_do($conex,$sql);
}
...
$q=ODBC($conex,"select ...");
the use of a function make spend time and solve the problem. It works
for me!
