I'm working on a php data load project that will require some extended run
times and I wish to monitor progress. I created a table in a mysql database
such that at certain intervals the process will update the table. I've written
a second php script which upon a button click is suppose to read the status row
from the database and simply display the contents. In my testing the monitor
script works fine except when the project script is running. The project script
opens the database and closes the database connection with each update. The
updates are suppose to run every minute. When the project script is running and
I click the button on the monitor script it goes into a wait state that doesn't
"finish" until the project script updates the database with finish and shuts
down.
I can see the data being updated in the database via MySQL Query Browser but
the monitor PHP script waits.
I believe there's some configuration that I don't have set correctly or I need
to connect differently to the database. Any ideas????
Thanks in advance!
