Re: php4 / sybase

Further update on the connect problem. I looked at the php.ini file; there were no entries having to do with sybase connection retries/timing. I ran through the Sybase configuration utility; no entries there either. So, I decided to go back and test different sections of the application to see if I could determine any common cause of the failure. Guess what? Now I can't get the !@#$%^&*() thing to fail. Aren't computers wonderful? While frothing at the mouth because of this problem, I came up with some new functions I would like to see in php version 4.1 or whatever: sasd() - seek and scar disk rwtafo() - rewind tape and fall off hacf() - halt and catch fire (my favorite) Arghhhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!! Thanks for allowing me to vent.
