Ha ha....well....that's slightly embarrassing! But turns out it's not the issue after all. It must be the permissions issue, but unfortunately I haven't had a chance to get back and test it. Thanks for that. Regards, Bruce >>> Gustav Wiberg <gustav@xxxxxx> 30/07/2007 6:14:00 p.m. >>> Hi! I don't know if that if this would have any effect, but it might.

I load the page by going to the URL, not by doing a file/open. I checked the phpinfo page and there is only one php.ini mentioned there. I think your 3rd scenario is the most likely so I'll look into that. Thanks again.

Three possible reasons I can think of... 1) How are you "load[ing] the page into [your] browser"? If you are using File->Open to open the PHP script that's never going to work because Firefox doesn't know how to execute PHP 2) CLI is using a different php.ini than the web server - check this with a phpinfo page (http://php.net/phpinfo 3) Permissions are preventing the web server process from writing to the event log -Stut -- http://stut.net/ -- PHP Windows Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php No virus found in this outgoing message.
