Haven't seen that one... I have seen similar access violations in the
same environment, however:
php4ts!zend_strndup + 0x2B + 0xA05CB1AD
Which is really really odd, since the C code for that function is pretty
dang innocent looking... Ive been trying to get a stack trace on this
one for a few weeks now, but once I installed a debugger on that system,
the problem went away. grrrr!
Running PHP as a CGI module seems to fix all the problems, as far as I
can tell.

If your program is called "myprogram.exe", and it has a command-line
interface that you've tested and works, then you could do this:
1) put "myprogram.exe" in your system path (typically c:\winnt\system32
or something similar)
2) call it from your php code with either exec(), system(), or passthru()

There is another option... set 'output_buffering' to some number of
bytes (around 4000 is probably ok) in your php.ini file.
This will buffer the page in PHP before being sent to the client, so
things like cookies and headers can be set early-ish in the page, and
dont absolutely have to go on the first line of PHP code.
The docs state that this will slow down PHP slightly, but Im not quite
convinced. A small amount of buffering is a good thing, especially when
dealing with resources that have a bit of overhead, like TCP sockets or
filesystems. That way, if you have a 10000 line HTML page, instead of
possibly doing 10000 socket write calls, you only do a handful. And RAM
is way cheap these days ;)

What if I made a network share and all the sessions were stored in a

Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] SESSIONS- clustered environment
You have two solutions (IMHO):
a) Database storage
Replacement of the session_init and session_save/register functions
with others that will save/load the sessions from a database storage.
Pros: easy to implement
Cons: dependency of the database storage reliability, scalability
problems
b) Distributed sessions
Replace the same functions with some that will propagate the session
values to all the servers in the cluster, so that the next request can
be served by any and the session won't be corrupted. [this would mandate
the existence of a "cluster" layer in the servers configuration]
Pros: high availability, redundancy and scalability
Cons: very dificult to implement
The first method can perform better in low trafic environments... but
will scale worst as the trafic will rise... the second method is much
more granular, with the performance cost more stable in all trafic
conditions,
The first method will have is performance dependent on the performance
of the database storage... the second method will have performance
dependent on how many servers exist to syncronize the sessions...
The non-cluster solution would be to have all the sessions register in
only one server, and get all the content in a second line of web
servers... that way, the main server would only handle connections and
sessions, with all the content and data communications bellonging to the
second line servers...

In that case you are making the whole cluster in the health of the
network file system (ie... the file system + the network sharing
system)... but that wouldn't work, because if the user changes from the
server a to the server b, it gets a new session initiated, because in
that server, he hasn't a session... [or he has... depends on how php
handles the session cookie and the session temp files]...
For instance... if PHP registers in the session temp file the name of
the server and the ip, then the user, has it is accessing from a
diferent server (with diferent ip and name), then even if the cookie is
ok (ie is created using the root domain, and all the servers in the
cluster are in the rule of *.domain.tld), it will not match with the
file, with the consequence of generating a new session and the override
of the session cookie. If the session temp file only registers the same
root as the cookie, then, if all the servers follow the name rule of
*.domain.tld, the session is persistent thru all the servers that use
that share and comply with the naming rule... i've no idea of which is
the case... testing will reveal...
I would only deploy to production environment a session solution (either
the share or any other) that supports clusters of servers after
intensive testing...

That's what I was thinking. Do you have a few machines you could try it
with? You could also try something like that using a bunch of VMWare (or
similar virtual machine) systems...

I tried upgrading to 4.2.3 using the PHP 4.2.3 Installer. I got numerous
errors when booting windows about not being able to find this or that. I
replaced php4ts.dll with original and I do not get the errors but my PHP
pages no longer work. I get the error
CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of
HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:
I looked at the App Mapping and see .php, .php3 and .html mapped to
c:\php\php.exe Verbs = "all".
Should I be using the ISAPI? If so how do I fix my problem.
Thanks,
Lanham.

Hi
Is it possible to have different php.ini on IIS ?
Let's say that I have 10 differebt sites running on IIS, can i then specify
a php.ini for each site, anf if yes, how ?
Thanks in advance
Steen
--- End Message ---
--- Begin Message ---
Assuming the CGI version loads php.ini on each request
(http://www.php.net/manual/en/configuration.php), it would be possible to
locate varied php.ini files in the folder with each mapped application
(php.exe). But I have no idea how simultaneous requests are handled.
Give it a shot. Just try removing the php.ini from a common system path
like c:\winnt and putting a copy into each php folder you need along with a
copy of php.exe. Then map the PHP app per site in IIS to different folders.

I use addslashes() frequently, although urlencode works too. I find
addslashes to be cleaner.

Use addslashes() if gpc magic quotes is off.

Hello everyone,
I am using PHP with Windows XP. I am trying to have a ".exe" program (written and
compiled in C) launched by my PHP script, using either system(), passthru()... That
works great ... as long as I only have one request at a time. When I have two (or more
request) at the same time (coming from different browser sessions), the execution of
the .exe program seems to be aborted for all sessions as soon as it is finished for
one of the sessions. Therefore only the first finishing session gets the good result,
the other sessions keeping waiting for an output that will never come.
The same problem arises if those are different .exe programs that are launched at the
same time, for example program1.exe, program2.exe and program3.exe ; if program1.exe
ends first, program2.exe and program3.exe get aborted ... How come ? How can I avoid
that ?
By advance, thank you for your help and comments ...
Best regards from Belgium,
Jean-Marc
