mssql_close() doesnt do anything when you use mssql_pconnect as this is a persistant connection. If you want to close the connection after you've finnished with it you should use mssql_connect() instead. Hope this helps -----Original Message----- From: Tim Evans [mailto:time@finley-cook.com] Sent: 05 December 2002 13:33 To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: MSSQL Problems I've written a script that works perfectly for almost ten times, and then stops being able to connect to the MSSQL server. I imagine this has something to do with me not properly closing my connection, and the server having a maximum # of connections. I'm calling both mssql_free_result() and mssql_close() after every query. I'm using mssql_pconnect. I would include sample code, but it does this whether I use code ripped right from examples and docs or I write it myself. It doesn't seem to matter what database, or the type or amount of information I'm requesting. Thanks for any help I get on this problem, it's driving me nuts. -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
