Status: Closed
Bug Type: IIS related
Operating System: Windows 2000
PHP Version: 4.2.1
New Comment:
I'm happy to hear that most people are able to solve their CGI errors
by changing the Windows Performance Options. We have Scott to thank for
this little trick!
Rasmus, I think what people are upset about is that this bug was
closed. It's obviously a Micro$haft problem (big surprise) but even so,
it's quite frustrating to feel like y'all don't give a dern :-( This
is obviously not the case but closing the bug makes people think that
you're not interested in finding a solution. Even if the problem is not
the fault of PHP.
On an unrelated note I'm *extremely happy* to see that you've included
the php_zip.dll extension in php-4.3.0pre2-Win32.zip. SWEEEEEEEEEEEET!
Now all we need is a solid php4isapi.dll ;-)

We fix what we can fix given our resources and the environment we are
working in. In many ways M$ does not provide us with a level
playing-field and as such you will find that PHP is much much stronger
on non-M$ platforms where we are not hampered by closed-source, vague
and often quite buggy apis. But thank you for your amazingly
constructive comments.

I was having major problems with this just as everyone else was so I
changed my setting from being optimized for background processes to
applications and everything seems to be working smoothly.
That said, I am very disappointed with PHP, and I really hope that the
developers learn from their mistakes... especially this one. This type
of error cannot be tolerated, especially when it's been present for
this long. Version after version... nobody seems to be paying
attention to it. I'm sorry, but I think I will be moving to asp.net if
php cannot handle the speed of our servers. I understand that bringing
up asp.net in a PHP forum is not a good idea, however I'm just stating
the facts.
Farewell PHP, I might be back, but in the mean time I choose not to put
my reputation into the hands of ignorant programmers.

On our servers, we were recieving this cgi error a lot. I haven't
installed the specific patch or updated MDAC. (web server - w2k sp3 iis
5, fast; mssql server - w2k sp3 mssql 2000, fast; all on a 1gb private
net). My web server was set to background by default. I changed to
APPLICATION and things have been working well. It seems that folks are
using the background setting after the updates and patches. Don't know
if this is of any use, but I thought I'd let people know. Also, I only
recieve the CGI error on the IE browser. I have yet to recieve it on
Mozilla.
Thanks
Seth

Thanx for the quick answer dmendez,
I now switched to Background Application,
there are no CGI Errors, but i just could not stress test the server.
But it seems as if that solved the problem.

Ewald, this setting is applicable to windows not to IIS.
Go to start button, control panel, system, advanced tab then
performance option.
good luck.
