I am using CURL to check pages outside my site on the internet for some text, then I email someone on my database who supposedly looks after the site. The script creates a process that does not terminate. It is running on a scheduled cronjob so eventually my site has over the maximum of 20 processes running and it goes offline. It may be that some of the pages I check are hard to get a response from, as CURL tries to return the target URL. I have removed any emailing that it does and still get the problem. Is there any way to check that a process is not terminating after a reasonable time?
http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.set-time-limit.php Get the php script to terminate after a certain amount of time. You could also use this curl variable: CURLOPT_CONNECTTIMEOUT in case it's a connection issue... see http://www.php.net/curl I'd probably also try setting CURLOPT_VERBOSE to see if that reveals the actual problem rather than guessing. -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/ -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
