[snip]I'm having intermittent problems with odbc_connect(). Here's the situation....
I'm trying to connect to a Sybase Adaptive Server Anywhere database running on Win2K from my web server using Solaris, Apache, PHP, iODBC, and OpenLink's ODBC universal data access driver for MSSQL/Sybase. About 75% of the time, my php scripts talk to the Sybase system fine. However, the other 25% of the time nothing really happens. IE reports a "Page cannot be displayed" error, while Firefox acts like it may do something for a fraction of a second, but then just stays on the currently loaded page.
I have tracing turned on in iODBC. When things work fine, a lengthy trace file is generated and everything seems to be in order. When things don't work, all I get is the following:
No connect errors are generated either in the trace file or in the browser's display. It's almost as if the process just dies without saying anything about why it happened.

What do your servers error logs say? This sounds suspiciously like the behavior one gets when php runs out of memory. If so, it should have an "Unable to allocate # bytes " type message in the error log. Check that, and increase memory_limit in your php.ini if this is the case.
