Re: PHP socket automatically shuts down after ? hours of idling?

Hi Hannes, It just shuts down the socket server without any error, warning or notice. I'm sorry that I can't provide a case for reproduction, because I don't even know where the problem is, and where I should shorten the script to. However, there is a strange behavior that might help to target the trouble: 1) The socket server runs fine when it starts, as long as there are ppl keeping connected to the server. 2) After about 3 hours of idling (I couldn't count the exact time), when someone connect to the socket, it still works, for the FIRST connection. 3) Then, the server shuts down. I tried to log what happend during the operation, but didn't find anything useful. :( Any hint on this? Thanks! Chris Jiang

Hi all, here is another question that made me confused. I'm not sure if it's a bug or what, but I can't find an answer from the search engines. I've made a chat server using php socket features, and it works pretty well as I've expected. However, there is a weird thing happening: The server shuts down automatically after about 3 hours of idling (no connections).

Without any notices/warnings/errors? Do you have a shortish reproduce case? -Hannes
