PHP isn't threadable... PHP is Thread Safe meaning you can run multiple php scripts on multiple threads for the samp process but you can't create threads inside php code.
What i don't see is why you want to go from cron .. using ither php-cli or cgi.. to using threads. It seems you are just trying to run a script that you have multiple times? You can do system calls inside php shell_exec("php some_script > /dev/null 2>&1"); which will allow you to call a script from a script. or you can get into unix forking.. http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.pcntl.php - Brad --- Andrew Milne <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I have a PHP script that is run hourly by cron; I would like to make this > multithreading rather than configure cron to run the script more than once > per hour.
