We have an intranet web server for empolyees only,about 200 users.

The web server has the following circumstums:

CPU😛 III *2
Memory:256 M

Win2000+php4.0.2+apache1.3.12

using remote oracle database server.

While the web service is still fine,I am astonished to find there is 4 php.exe processes displayed in Task Manager,which cost most CPU,and it shows CPU is 100%,why?

After restarted apache service,the status remains with no change.

How to solve this problem?Is it possible to use PHP on win platform for long term use?

Any response is greatly appreciate!

    Hi ,

    If your server is a dedicated Webserver you should consider using Linux/Apache/PHP<->oracle. Your server should run smooth and worry free with this combination. I use a Compaq Proliant 2500, RAID 5, PPro 200 with 128MB supporting 400 users running Linux, Apache, PHP and MySQL, uptime was 10 months and then... it was time to extend disk capacity.

    Hope this will help.

      How your configed your linux,apache and mysql to handle 400 concurrent users?
