Hi All i have a windows 2003 sErver running IIS 6, I had the same problem with the cgi timeout, resolved by Downloading the IIS 6 resource kit. http://download.microsoft.com/download/7/8/2/782c25d3-0f90- 4619-ba36-f0d8f351d398/iis60rkt.exe With the IIS Metabase Explorer, go to the Server name, Expand LM, Go to W3SVC. Find event CGI Timeout and change the default from 300 secs to whatever you need and it works Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-30 22:52:02] mlisondra at lisondra dot biz This has occured in my applications that use PHP 4.3.6 with a MS SQL server backend. Using Windows 2000 Server. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-27 18:49:19] jvanhoy at archermalmo dot com Another clue about this weird bug is.... If you make undefined or bad system calls on a Windows box the app will throw this error. For example, in moving a PHP app from a *nix environment to a Windows2003 Server env. the following line of code WILL cause the "CGI Heart attack" to occur: system("rm /usr/local/apache/sessions/$THIS_SESSID"); That dog won't hunt on an NT machine and causes this error to occur. Remove the line (or rewrite it to use the proper NT syntax) and the error goes away. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-11 16:53:47] moricio at hotmail dot com Hi! I have come to this error all the time and finally decided to do something and **SURPRISE** it worked!! And I say it worked because I tried it before and didn't work at all. The solution is to install PHP under IIS as an ISAPI module and not as a CGI processor. I have Windows XP, IIS, MySQL, PHP 4.3.4 and is working great without this problem. Also, follow the exact instructions as they appear in the install.txt file in the php directory. bye. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-08 20:37:21] salmanarshad2000 at yahoo dot com The same problem was also noticed on Windows Server 2003 machine with IIS 6.0, php version 4.3.6, and mysql 3.2x.xx, faulting php application is moodle (www.sourceforge.net). The "CGI application misbehaved" error appears randomly on pages that contain lots of mysql_query() and header( "location: " ). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2004-09-08 16:41:34] [EMAIL PROTECTED] People, please do not add comments to this bug report.
