Hi all,
The new WAMP5 0.5 autoinstall is out since a few days. It now includes PHP5
RC2. A few changes have been made, you can now choose where you want to
install, all the conf files automatically adapt.
You can find
WAMP5 0.5 Light (Apache + PHP5 RC2 + SQLitemanager)
or
WAMP5 0.5 Full (same plus MySQL and PHPMYADMIN)
at
http://www.wampserver.com
Enjoy ;-)

This sounds weired but try to have a look at your IE settings. If cookies
don't work on your IE (on the client machine, not the server of course),
your sessions won't either (unless you use session.use_trans_sid) :
sessions use cookies to keep their Id, if PHP doesn't find an ID (a cookie),
he will create a new session. That's why each time you load your page a new
session file is created.
Try to use session.use_trans_sid and i'm sure it will work (!!! : using
trans_sid lowers your security level, if someone does a ctrlC ctrlV on the
url and sends it to a friend, the friend will receive the URL with the
session ID in it. This means that those two persons will share the same
session).
Hope this will help ;-)

Has anybody else received strange e-mails after posting to the php
mailing lists? After every post I have made so far I have received an
e-mail within ten minutes of posting from amazon or a swiss bank
claiming I have contacted them. I have never done this and I do not
normally receive any spam or unsolicited e-mail.
Regards,
Jonathan Pilborough

I contacted Amazon about this and twice received form letters back
claiming it was a virus spoofing their address. After assuring them
that it wasn't a virus and pressing the issue, they finally seem to have
gotten it to the right people to look at it.
I received this email the other day:
| Hello,
|
| Just a quick note to let you know I received a "trouble ticket"
| from one of our people in HR letting me know of a problem with
| the [EMAIL PROTECTED] autoresponder.
|
| I'm going to look into this matter and escalate to our system
| administrators as needed to see what we can do to prevent this
| from happening any more.
|
| We'll do what we can to resolve this as soon as possible. Sorry
| for any inconvenience this is causing you.
|
| -Dave
|
| ========================
| Dave Viebrock, Helpdesk
| [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I forwarded him a copy of the email I had received and the headers
showing it coming from Amazon's mail servers.
I believe it's from the PHP-Win mailing list specifically that we've
been getting the emails, but maybe I just havn't posted on some of the
others as much.
At any rate, I think it's just someone who works in HR at Amazon or some
other kind of auto-responder set up in their system that sends out a
courtesy email saying "Thanks, we received your email and will get back
to you shortly".
If people keep getting messages from Amazon, you might want to contact
the guy above and forward him your email headers. Be courteous though,
this is likely a simple mistake and I'm guessing it's not "Dave's"
fault. Try to work with him to solve the problem, don't just flame the
poor guy.
I havn't received anything from a Swiss bank, but any time you get
something like this, try sending a message to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or
"[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or something along those lines. Sysadmins
don't want their users spamming the world and giving them a bad name, so
go right to the top with your inquiry. :)

Did you tried fastcgi : http://php.weblogs.com/fastcgi_with_php_and_iis
I run php +fastcgi+IIS5+NT2000 server since one year without any problem
(but this is an intranet, small traffic). The only drawback is that it works
only for PHP4.
