Hi all,

i've recently configured my PHP with FastCGI, because in ISAPI mode it
crashes everyday from 2 to 5 times, and now, all seems to work fine, but the
queries to the MSSQL server 7 return some invalid chars, it seems that
extended latin chars are changed, but in the database these chars are
correct, and previously in ISAP mode all works fine and all the texts from
de MSSQL return in correct charset.
Please, some one knows anything about that problem? I don't know where to
search to find how to correct this....

Many thanks in advance, and sorry for my english, i'm spanish :)

Thanks,
Xavier Serna.

Finally I've discovered what's happening... it's the ANSI to OEM automatic
conversion in SQL DB Library... I've deactivated it and now everything works
fine... but, why in ISAPI mode, with ANSI to OEM automatic conversion all
works fine... and in FastCGI mode not??
Perhaps someone can explain something about this issue....

Many thanks,
Xavier Serna.

Are you sure that your character set is correct in both PHP and the MSSQL? There was a 
big discussion about correctly setting the right code-type on another PHP list that 
I'm on, and the ultimate outcome was that some characters refuse to communicate 
between programs simply because their encodings are different. Just a thought,

Technicaly, it's not an official release, and therefore, not entirely
debugged.... I use Apache 2.0.45 and PHP 4.3.1 with PHP loaded as a  module.
No issues at all.  I've got it on a production server and so do many other
people.  Works pretty good if you ask me.

I have ran php on IIS for some time now and have only had one successful
install. The DLL creates an access violation to a memory sector and the cgi
has random misbehaved headers. I seen these problems on the net and other
people are complaining about the same issues. But I see no answers. Any
help?

I know this is not the question you asked, but in my experience, PHP runs
much much better under Apache than IIS. Perhaps you should consider using
Apache. (I used to run both IIS 5 and IIS 6 with PHP and it was terribly
slow. I installed Apache for Windows and it is 1000% better.)

Anyway, there is some good stuff here, especially if you scroll down and
read some of the user feedback.

Is there a danger if you install php as an Apache module and a CGI? Or will you get 
the same functionality either way?

Hi all
    Has anyone been able to call php from a servlet (JAVA) using CGI
interface? I am trying to do that here, and everything seems to work without
problems, except that no data returns from the execution of my scripts. Any
idea what could be happening? Is there information on how to configure the
CGI variables in order to be able to call PHP? Thanx in advance...

Rodrigo
PS. BTW, I am on using PHP on windows...
