hi, thank you for taking time reading this email. i experienced an abnormal happening from my php_MSSQL70.dll. My computer config: AMD 850+SDRAM 256 OS: MS Windows 2000 SERVER + sp1 HTTPD Server : Apache 1.3.19 PHP version : 4.0.4 MSSQL version : 2000 i altered the Extension part of the php.ini file so that it loads php_mssql70.dll (seems there is no php_mssql2000.dll for my MSSQL2000). the problem is whenever i load a local page (by typing add in the add bar or clicking a hyperlink) in IE, it takes around 10 sec. and i observed that when the page is being loaded, the cpu usage reflected from the Task Manager is 100% and stays for about 5 sec. THIS HAPPENS EVEN IF THE SCRIPT DIDN"T CALL MSSQL FUNCITONS. the problem disappears if i comment that line in php.ini which loads that dll. Why is this happening? anyone can help me? aijil _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
