We all do our misstakes! :) In any case, this is NOT php related. It has to do with IIS. IIS has about 5 watchdogs one need to take care about. Thanks to a tip from Frank Kromman I were able to nail this one down: The manual on CGI configuration does not say anything about timeouts but there is a tab with two timout values for the configuration in IIS manager(session, and execution) but these only affect ASP session. One has to do a change in the metabase.xml to set this. There are example script on how to do this, but these are for Java, perl and VBScript, hence useless for me. I changed the defualt value of 300 for CGItimeout directly in the file: %WINROOT%/system32/inetsrv/metabase.xml, something. and then it worked just fine. -----Original Message----- From: Manuel Vazquez Acosta To: php-windows@lists.php.net Sent: 2004-01-07 18:41 Subject: Re: Re: Why does php exit after 6 minutes?
