Note Submitter: duarte@uma.pt ---- SQLServer 2000 (win2k) and PHP 4.3.3 + FreeTDS 0.61.1 (SuSE 7.3) I coulnd't connect to SQLServer 2000 after compiling PHP 4.3.3 with FreeTDS 0.61. But I had in the same machine PHP 4.2.3 + FreeTDS 0.61 and it was working fine. I found in a freetds mailing list that PHP now set mssql.textsize and mssql.textlimit, so, to get PHP 4.3.3 connecting with MSSQL 2000 with FreeTDS 0.61 we should comment out the following lines in PHP.INI: ;mssql.textlimit= xxxx ;mssql.textsize= xxxx I have compiled FreeTDS --with-tdsver=7.0 --enable-msdblib and PHP --with-mssql=/usr/local/freetds More details in: http://lists.ibiblio.org/pipermail/freetds/2003q3/013323.html I hope this helps somebody because I spent 2 days to solve this "problem"... ;-)
