I hosed (destroyed) my webserver last night and now I can't get a single
thing to run right.

My first concern is how to get rid of the X-Powered by PHP (etc.) line off
of my pages.

I have read repeatedly that I need to run in silent mode, but I can't seem
to figure out how to do that.

Anyone, please?!??!  IIS 4      NT 4     PHP 4.0.4 CGI

Hi John,

I got this message the that I installed the release 4 of PHP.

In that case it was caused by an error in php.ini. In that file I configured some dll 
that I hadnt installed, or, as someone wrote, php can't found.

Have a look for "X-Powered" in the past  ( last year..  ) threads of this list, to get 
the old mail about this message.

Regards

Darvin

After hunting on phpbuilder, php.net and phpwizard, I finally found
something on Zend...

It seems that if an extension (in my and someone else's case the oci8.dll)
doesn't load... this is a result...

Now all I have to do is figure out why the dll won't load...

Aaarrrrghhh!

Thank for the help so early (late?) Darvin,

Actually, I saw that post too and thought that that was the ticket, but it
was related to an extension (php_oci8.dll) not loading.

Thanks!

Hi,

Okay I have several questions... I am currently running a NT4 IIS4 box
running three PHP websites with MySql and two ASP websites using DB back
ends as well.

The three PHP websites all use API's toolkits built on top of PHPLib
including templating and automatic forms generation.. The server is
currently processing 40 simultaneous hits and is struggling so I am looking
for a reduction in memory usage and maybe a speed up with PHP processes....

So my questions are:

1. It is worth while upgrading to PHP4 will I get noticeable speed increases
?
2. It is difficult to migrate from PHP3 to PHP4 ? (I have done this on Linux
and had very few problems is Widows the same ?)
3. Is anyone out their running PHP4 ISAPI on a production server and getting
reliability out of it ? (This was my part of my solution until I read the
docs about it not being stable )
4. Does PHP4 still work with PHPLib reliably?

I would appreciate any responses....

I´m new to PHP on the Windows platform.

And here is a simple question; How do I find out how much free diskspace and
memory my server´s got with PHP? Can I use the system() function?

You can manage your php configuration for each sites you have declared in your 
Management Console.

You just have to place a different php.ini in each sites root directory.

Did anyone ever come up with a solution to this issue?

I have a similar problem I've just started researching on this
newsgroup.

My existing ASP scripts work fine and download quickly.

After executing some PHP scripts the download bit transfer rate
drops down to a slow crawl.  It appears to recover and begin to
download quickly again after some timeout period (5 minutes or so?)

The system repeats this scenario periodically.

I have spent numerous hour looking at performance (CPU, MEMORY, etc)
and discovered no contention.

The problem did not really appear in php3.

There appears to be a resource contention problem or sharing issue
somewhere.

I am using Access with IIS & PHP4.04pl1 on an NT IIS SP6a.

This issue has been driving me crazy....

Do you NEED to run IIS? Why don't you try Apache? It's free, and it runs on
WinNT too...

Eric,

thanks for doing those benchmarks. I was also getting the feeling that the
response was really sluggish but had put it down to one of the many factors
involved in my work.

If you had some specimen pages and some sort of script that could automatically
run a profiling analysis I'd be glad if you could send me the whole thing so I
could run those tests on my setup.

Maybe if more people run your benchmark test and collected the results we could
raise the profile of this problem,

waiting to hear from you.

    I'm trying to connect to an Oracle database through ODBC using the
8.1.6 client and php4.04 or php4.05rc2 from www.php4win.de on NT with
servicepack 6 and IIS with php running as a cgi.
    Php crashes at instruction 0x04c2ea86 referenced memory at
"0x000000000". The memory could not be written.  I have disabled LOB in
the ODBC Administrator.  If I don't use a correct username or password
php comes back with a correct user, but it seems that if I connect it
crashes, any suggestions?


Thanks.

I do have an issue with stability on my IIS NT4 SP6a system after installing
PHP4 CGI accessing an Access db.

My ASP stuff is normally ok.  After executing PHP4 scripts my bitrate transfer
slows to a crawl for 5 minutes or so.  this happens randomly but only near the
time a PHP script excutes.  It slows to 1k/b/s some times; normal rates are
50+ kb/s

After about 5 minutes everything is back to normal, until the next time.

It appeard after upgrading to php4.

It most likely is an interaction between IIS, ODBC, Access and the
two ASP/PHP systems.

Wish I could identify the problem though...

5 minutes equals 300 seconds (5*60)
Apache does have a 300 seconds timeout; does IIS have that one too?

from apache's httpd.conf:
#
# Timeout: The number of seconds before receives and sends time out.
#
Timeout 300

Maybe IIS does not realize that the script is already completed or the
script has some error that is not displayed and prevents it from being
completed?...

time a PHP script excutes.  It slows to 1k/b/s some times; normal rates are
50+ kb/s

After about 5 minutes everything is back to normal, until the next time.

It appeard after upgrading to php4.

It most likely is an interaction between IIS, ODBC, Access and the
two ASP/PHP systems.

Wish I could identify the problem though...

I am writing a query to a paradox table, using ODBC.
I have a field of  MEMO kind, and I don't get all of his content.
Someone have some tip?

How to handle NULL value from Value property of Field object (ADO, DAO)?
I get Warning: Unsupported variant type: 1 (0x1) 






Hello all,

I use NT IIS with SP6a to access an MS Access db using ODBC with
ASP based scripts primarily, and have been writing new PHP4 where appropriate
for the past year.

I am using  PHP404pl1 CGI installer and have experienced a troublesome
performance issues after executing PHP scripts (randomly it seems)

The problem goes like this:

*  ASP scripts execute ok for long periods of time

*  A PHP script (which are seldom executed) appears to execute ok

*  ASP scripts are then executed, but the download bitrate slows to a crawl,
    sometime down to the 500b/s rate.  The scripts sometimes don't complete due
    to timeout issues.

* After approximately 5 minutes, all ASP scripts start working within expected and 
normal
   rates (50kb/s)

There appears to be a contention or resource issue between ASP and PHP4.  The problem
was not noticed when I was using PHP3.

Our developers have monitored NT's memory, CPU, Pagefile utilization which are all 
clean.
We have looked at MS' IIS site for tuning hints and updated some parameters.

Has anyone else experienced performance issues with IIS that affects the download 
performance
of html back to the desktop?

Any IIS/Access experts willing to comment?

Any know PHP4 bugs?

Alex,

.gif images just support 8-bits (256 colors). Am I wrong? I've never seem a
32-bit .gif image. Only jpg's, png's, etc..

But I scanned three pages from a magazine using the same scanner I used to
scanner the bill I've tryed to put on-line, and the letters are blurry too.
I don't know, but I suspect I have to use a not scanned image , but one made
from a drawing software like Corel Draw.

By the way, excuse me my poor English. It's not my first Language

Why don't you send me a sample image? I'll print it and see what I get.
Perhaps you're not using a recent driver for your printer: try checking the
manufacturer's web page for a more recent one...

I need to convert this ASP file into PHP file.
Could you help me ?
Thanks a lot

I don't know any ASP, but you could try http://www.naken.cc/ for an
automated ASP2PHP program.

>From what your code looks like it's doing, I would say it is fairly easy to
do in PHP... :)

This is the output from asp2php 0.75.10:
<? 
//Response.write(Request.Form("Navigazione"))
$CreateObject["CDONTS.Newmail"]
$objMail.$MailFormat=$cdoMailFormatMIME;
$objMail.$From=$HTTP_POST_VARS["tuamail"];
$objMail.echo $HTTP_POST_VARS["suamail"];
$objMail.$Bcc="[EMAIL PROTECTED]";
$objMail.$Subject="##  example  ##";
//Composizione body
$Body=$Body."Buongiorno,".chr(13).chr(10);
$objMail.$Body=$Body;
$objMail.$Send;
$objMail=null;
header("Location: "."conferma.php");
exit;
//Response.write(body)
?>

It commented out two lines... I don't know if they are important...
