ID: 32854 Comment by: contact at isi-developpement dot com Reported By: gerritgiliomee at hotmail dot com Status: No Feedback Bug Type: MSSQL related Operating System: Windows 2000 sp4 PHP Version: 5.0.4 Assigned To: fmk New Comment:
Dear all, We use Apache 2, PHP 5.1.0, MS SQL2000 up-to-date, Windows XP SP2 French up-to-date. The mssql_pconnect() function seem to not use the same connection each time it is used. If we open a web page with 3 iframes contening each one a connection to the database, there are 3 connections openned on the web server. In fact, after using the web server, we obtain the classic error message "Warning: mssql_pconnect() [function.mssql-pconnect]: Unable to connect to server: servername" The only way is to restart Apache. Have a good day to all. Laurent.

We've had this problem (with mssql_connect) since PHP 4.3.10, so please don't tell us to use the latest snapshot unless you know for a fact that this problem has been addressed. We have three IIS machines and one database machine in a lab. After putting pressure on one of the IIS machines, we got it in a state that it won't make any new database connections whereas the others IIS machines communicate fine. This problem is very difficult to reproduce in the lab. We also switched the code (while not restarting IIS) to use PDO_ODBC to connect to the same database server. Here we received the same result. The one machine was still "hung" and not making database connections. We tried getting more information with mssql_get_last_message() but got an empty string, and from the exception that PDO throws just this: "SQLSTATE[] SQLConnect: 0" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2005-11-14 01:00:02] php-bugs at lists dot php dot net No feedback was provided for this bug for over a week, so it is being suspended automatically.

Everything works a treat until I put some load on. When I go above a certain threshhold, e.g. using Apache Benchmark, 20 concurrent users, 500 requests, mssql_pconnect fails with this error: "Warning: mssql_pconnect() [function.mssql-pconnect]: Unable to connect to server: servername" This is understandable as things will break above a certain point, however, after this happens, mssql_pconnect seems to have hung, even if I change the connection details, or try using mssql_connect, I still get the same error. The only thing that resolves it is restarting IIS. Using Win2K (sp4), IIS5, MS SQL 200 (sp2). PS: I have made sure I'm using the right version of ntwdblib.dll. It's also worth noting that my phpinfo() reports "Library Version: 7.0" instead of the presumed 8.0. Not sure if this is connected to the SQL version though. I've toggled around and have these mssql settings in my php.ini [MSSQL] ; Allow or prevent persistent links. mssql.allow_persistent = On ; Maximum number of persistent links. -1 means no limit. mssql.max_persistent = 100 ; Maximum number of links (persistent+non persistent). -1 means no limit. mssql.max_links = 100 ; Minimum error severity to display. mssql.min_error_severity = 10 ; Minimum message severity to display. mssql.min_message_severity = 10 ; Compatability mode with old versions of PHP 3.0. mssql.compatability_mode = Off ; Connect timeout mssql.connect_timeout = 5 ; Query timeout mssql.timeout = 60 ; Valid range 0 - 2147483647. Default = 4096. mssql.textlimit = 4096 ; Valid range 0 - 2147483647. Default = 4096. mssql.textsize = 4096 ; Limits the number of records in each batch. 0 = all records in one batch. mssql.batchsize = 0 ; Specify how datetime and datetim4 columns are returned ; On => Returns data converted to SQL server settings ; Off => Returns values as YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss ;DEV - used to be completely commented out mssql.datetimeconvert = Off ; Use NT authentication when connecting to the server mssql.secure_connection = Off ; Specify max number of processes. Default = 25 mssql.max_procs = 25 Any help will be much appreciated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=32854&edit=1
