RE: [PHP-WIN] Running dual Apache and IIS

Because there is no persistant logon to Oracle when you are in cgi mode. You can call the function, and it logs on, but as soon as the php.exe instance is dropped, so is the connection. And since the logon takes 10-19 seconds of the total execution time of 12-20 seconds, I'm fairly certain of where the bottleneck is. I guess you only have to logon to Oracle with SQL+ to notice the amount of time spent logging on... People will be doing data entry with this application (I take that back, we ARE doing data entry with this application) and I NEED/MUST HAVE a true persistant connection. I was running the isapi module with 4.0.6 on ocassion only to have it break every 3 or 4 hours... I put 4.0.7 on and can't even get the isapi module to 'kind of' run. I guess I could give 4.0.8-dev on from php4win but I don't really have high hopes. I'm not giving up on PHP... it was a rash and idiotic response to the problem I'm having... BUT I've got to get something to work! --------------------- John Asendorf - jasendorf@lcounty.com Web Applications Developer http://www.lcounty.com - NEW FEATURES ADDED DAILY!
