Topic: PHP as MySQL socket error with FastCGI

[markymark]

I have Apache 2.2.3 and PHP 5.1.6 both downloaded from here, installed on a Windows 2k3 server.
I've been running PHP as a module for a few weeks and all is fine, except Apache crashes 2-3 times a day.
Needing better stability, I reconfigured PHP as a CGI using mod_fcgid, also downloaded here.

I'm now having a problem with mySQL - I can no longer make TCPIP connections, and get the following message:

Can't create TCP/IP socket (10106) in xxxxxx

Local connections (.) still work fine. If I switch back to running as a module, everything works ok again.
I've searched Google, and can see other people have had similar problems, but I've not found any solution.

Is anyone able to suggest something, or even if it's possible to use mySQL under fastcgi?

Thanks, Mark.

Hi Mark,

I am using here at the ApacheLounge site also mod_cgi and using Mysql TCPIP connections, works great not a single issue and not anymore that php is "bloating" apache.

Great, as soon as you can pass me that info I'll test it out.
Oh, and I'm running W2k3 Server 64-bit if that makes any difference, although I'm still using 32bit Apache and PHP.

Thanks

Mark
