I'm running cygwin on W2K3 with php built into windows via the binary from php.net.

I run php scripts, via cron, at freqent intervals, one is a simple database script that copies data from a back-end database to a front-end database, which has been running fine within cron for many many months. - runs every two minutes

The second script, also every two minutes, that reads xml files, from 50Kb to 400Kb, and inserts this data into a sybase (back-end) database. At any given time there is anywhere from 5-20+ files that it will need to process.

The problem is, the second script dies at various parts of the script, with no consistency. When this was first seen, php was throwing errors
on the console that it had ran out of memory, at that time i had cron
running as part of the Administrators Group, but not as Administrator -
username was cron_server.  When this was seen, i reinstalled cron (and
cygwin to the lastest versions of everything) and ran the serivce as
Administrator, which stopped php from throwing errors, but did not stop
the script from dying mid-stream.

With cygwin version - Cygwin DLL version info: DLL version: 1.5.18


Does it work any better or worse with a recent snapshot? <cygwin.com/snapshots>


Hi list/Larry.

upgrading the cygwin-1.dll to the lastest snap shot, three days ago now,
seemed to work, was there a known issue?  Wanted a let it run for a few
days before posting back.


I wouldn't say it was a known issue specifically.  At least it's not in
my recollection.  But allot has changed between 1.5.18 and now so it's
usually good practice to try a recent snapshot when a problem occurs to see
if the issue has been resolved by some intervening change.

Glad to hear it worked.
