Thanks for the reply. I can't seem to find ignore_user_abort in my
php.ini. I would like to do it at server level, rather than
individual scripts. Do you know roughly where is it? I think there
were some versions with this missing in the ini, which was later fixed.
I'm guessing that if ignore_user_abort is set to on, this could be the
culprit?
Would simply adding the following to the ini work?
Ignore user abort defaults to off, and doesn't necessarily help you if
the clients don't terminate their connections properly, or they're
actually trying to DoS you. I think your best bet is to either use some
lightweight detection in PHP (and maybe send an HTTP error header if
you're getting hit), or better yet, use a firewall if one is available
to prevent the connections from even getting to your webserver and
wasting its resources. (If your server is running on Linux, iptables
should be able to do what you need, and there are more complicated
solutions too.)
