hmm, I've been successfully using IIS 5/PHP 4.2.1 (also making use of mysql 3.23.49) and MSSQL Server, combination on win2k server for a few months now, recently using php 4.2.1 and still no 'nasties' have happened...
It is worring tho that there seems to be such a leap from systems running fine to it going ape s*it on another identical(ish) install. I'm using at the moment a dual p4 2ghz 2gb ram compac proliant ML370 for our web applications. Ne1 using similar and had problems? I'd rather know sooner than wait till our service is launched and it going down. No server, no cash flow ;) I have done some benchmarking on it running the application with IIS 5 and also with Apache2, and there is virtually no speed gain/loss worth mentioning. But the question then is, what's more stable in the long run? We were/are trying to keep is MS-centric - I personally am Anti-MS - but for the sake of ease of maintenance we we're trying to keep it MS. Also, while we're on about win2k, ne1 got any security tips for it in general for a webserver? I.e. typical precautuions to take wither it's IIS or Apache or other? > -----Original Message----- > From: Kevin Lilly [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: 22 May 2002 4:59 AM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] Re: windows 2000 server --- crashing > > > Thanks Clay...I'll try that when I get to work tommorrow > > Kevin > "Clay Culver" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message > 000601c20141$a5f2a5c0$1602a8c0@dark">news:000601c20141$a5f2a5c0$1602a8c0@dark... > > I have gotten PHP 4.2 to work well under Win2k Server, but > I do not use > > the dll file I use it as a CGI.
