For stability reasons I am running PHP as a CGI on my production server
win2k/IIS5. v4.2 of PHP. How bad is the performance hit running PHP as a
CGI and not ISAPI? Will it bog down my server with a light traffic load?
How much worse can running php with the .exe be?

We're running a quite big website with intensive use of php as cgi on
iis5/w2k. We've never had notable performance problems.
If you want to know exactly - install both and run some load tests...

*Significant* difference between CGI and ISAPI. But you can get a
4x-10x performance increase over CGI by using fastcgi, while maintaining
stability and gaining persistent resources (db connections). I have to
make a 4.2 fastcgi binary available, but info is at www.caraveo.com/fastcgi/

Am I correct in assuming that there is no PHP fastcgi implementation for
Apache?

No, there is. You get mod_fastcgi from fastcgi.com, get phpfcgi.exe
from my site, and they should work together fine.

Try jEdit (v4.0) http://www.jedit.com/, it's the best
free editor i've ever found for any platform.
Since it's java, you might think that it is resource
hungry... but on my 600Mhz linux machine it runs
perfectly smooth. (On my 800Mhz windows, it drags,
go figure)
And i would also suggest Emacs, but if you're averse
to twisted keyboard shortcuts, stay far away ;-)

httpd.conf does not have to be in the system dir,
and neither does php.ini.
my config has httpd.conf in C:\apache\conf\
and php.ini in C:\php-4.1.2\
works like a charm.

hi,
i run on my website a toplist build with php ther is an admin section but it
is not password protected so i wrote a user authentication script like this
<?php
$user = 'username';
$pass = 'pass';
$ip = getenv("REMOTE_ADDR");
if(!isset($PHP_AUTH_USER)){
Header("WWW-Authenticate:Basic realm=\"DelphiVillage\"");
Header("HTTP/1.0 401 Unauthorized");
echo "hi $ip do not hit the cancel button please.";
exit;
}else{
if(($PHP_AUTH_USER == 'username')&&
($PHP_AUTH_PW == 'pass'))
Header("Location:index.php");
else
print "he $ip what are you trying to do ?.";
}
?>
the scritpt works fine the password box pops up i fill in the correct values
click ok and then internet explorer 6 keeps on saying "website found waiting
for reply" it should redirect to "index.php" in the index.php files is
<?php
require("login.php");
?>
the rest is html coding
i think this is a bug in internet explorer i'll try netscape to see what
happens ..........
it keeps on saying website found waiting for reply ?
regards
Erik

Are you, by any chance, using Internet Explorer 6?
Because I had a similar problem. I spent a whole day trying to figure
why some people was telling me that my forms wouldn't work with IE when
the site worked perfectly for me in Opera 6 and IE 5.0 (the one that
comes with Win2k). Then, I realized they all were using Windows XP,
which comes with IE 6. So I tried my site with IE 6 and the problem was
there... it seems that IE 6 caches pages a little too much (to make you
believe it is faster maybe?). I tried adding some headers to make sure
the browser didn't store the page in the cache, but it didn't work as
expected.
Then I tried something else:
Since the script with the form was the same script that processed the
form, it was calling itself with the ACTION parameter of the FORM tag,
so, I randomly added a number at the end of the script name in the FORM
tag, preceded by a question mark "?". So it would look like this:
<FORM action="myscript.php?498676" method="POST">
That way, you can fool IE into thinking it is a different page so it
actually sends the request to the server.
I know it's not the best solution, but it works.
Just a little note: this "problem" doesn't seem to exist in IE6 when you
use ASP pages.... was it a simple error/mistake? I think not....

Hi,
I've been working with the printer extension lately... for work, not for fun! I'm
running PHP
4.2.0, and Apache 1.3.24 on Windows 98.
I've been having problems exclusively with the printer_set_option function. It
doesn't seem to
have any effect on the printers settings.
$handle = printer_open();
printer_start_doc($handle, "My Document");
printer_start_page($handle);
if ($labelSize == "mail") {
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_PAPER_FORMAT, PRINTER_FORMAT_CUSTOM);
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_PAPER_LENGTH, ????);
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_PAPER_LENGTH, ???);
} elseif ($labelSize == "ship") {
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_PAPER_FORMAT, PRINTER_FORMAT_CUSTOM);
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_PAPER_LENGTH, ????);
printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_PAPER_LENGTH, ???);
}
// Print stuff here...
printer_end_page($handle);
printer_end_doc($handle);
printer_close($handle);
This is basically what I'm trying to do. I know it get's into the if and elseif, then
it prints
using the settings that are set in the windows printer settings.
Any suggestions?

Thanks Alan. That worked a treat for me...!
The line I added was...
LoadModule php4_module C:/php/experimental/apache2filter.dll
Already included were...
AddType application/x-httpd-php .php
AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
and I also added index.php to the list of Directory indexes...
DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php

Great! I'm always gratified (and a little surprised) when it turns out I
actually got something right. ;)

I tried setting execute permissions on the system32 folder and also have
execute permissions on the command.exe file. I am running PHP v2.1.0,
recently upgrading coz i heard there were unable to fork problems with

many thanks in advance
