    Prob in phpMyAdmin on IIS installation on Windows XP

    I have PHP installed on a Windows XP platform using IIS as
    server. When updating a MySQL database field set to MEDIUMTEXT
    in phpMyAdmin, the transaction seems to fail if the text contains
    more than a few hundred characters.

    The update is actually made successfully, but afterwards, the server
    cannot locate the phpMyAdmin page as requested by the client
    browser. I get a "Page cannot be found" error. Clicking
    on Update from the browser clears the problem.

    Anyone know what's causing the problem? Potential sources
    of the problem could be with the driver for MySQL, with the IIS
    settings, or with the phpMyAdmin settings. I suspect IIS.

    Still having problems with this. As I update my local MySQL database,
    it brings the system practically to a halt. It is probably not PHP-
    related, but does anyone recognize the problem?

      What happens if you run the same SQL directly? I bet it freezes then as
      well, and if it does this suggests there is a problem in MySQL not
      anywhere else.

        Let me clarify. I can read and write from a MySQL database in normal
        time using PHP calls in my own program , and a benchmark test I run now
        and then performs as expected. I could beat it down further by using
        C language calls. I've played this game before.

        But updating through phpMyAdmin to a page served by IIS is what runs
        slowly. It almost hangs on a single transaction, which is bizarre since
        it's going through the same driver that my PHP applcation script uses.
        Of course it's not exactly the same, i.e., the phpMyAdmin doesn't operate in
        exactly the same environment as my PHP application. But I sort of
        suspect that's where the problem lies.

        Anyway, if anyone has nothing else to do, take the California quiz, another
        PHP app, at http://cross-comp.com/pages/webdesig.../califquiz.php

          I had something similar to this using PHPMyAdmin with Netscape. With IE
          there was no problem.

          However I doubt this is the cause of your problem!
