Made worse when you find your problem is because you tested it on windows Nt/Xp/2000 work station.. and the 'server' version suddenly decides to be slightly different (eg stupid stupid stupid index server grrrrrrr.. as I found also with PHP that somehow its different, I worked round it, but annoyed the hell out of me, as originally the workstation one would GPF then it would just return nothing.. now I found a way to make it work but it means I need to comment in / out some code when making it live.. grr) Yup, windows is the least predictable and also doesn't handle connections as well, nor many other things as well, I share the opinion its not the best for a web production server, but for some reason, apparently according to the nice people who pay me money, nothing other than VB/ASP is marketable these days..... as I tried to point out.. and at what point does someone with a pension even have a CLUE what the system was which was used? > -----Original Message----- > From: Melvyn Sopacua [mailto:msopacua@idg.nl] > Sent: Tuesday, June 04, 2002 11:11 PM > To: Peter Neuman > Cc: PHP QA List > Subject: Re: [PHP-QA] Win32/mail stuff > > > Peter Neuman said at 23:32 4-6-2002: > > >Windows is IMHO not Good for Production Server... > > and in other's opinion, it is - but it's completely beside the point. > > I have a laptop running windows, and a 2 workstations running > windows, on > which I do a lot of local development (then use cvs to manage > sources and > export to website). > > It is always frustrating to debug a problem, for 2 hours and > then find out > your code was good, just not on whatever platform - > webdevelopers already > have to deal with standards ignoring browsers, they don't need > server-incompatibilities as well. > > > Met vriendelijke groeten / With kind regards, > > IDG.nl > Melvyn Sopacua > Webmaster > > > -- > PHP Quality Assurance Mailing List <http://www.php.net/> > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php >
