#26 Add Event Endless Loop on Windows Server

[Jim A]

Deployed Datenator to host Windows Server 2003 with PHP
4.3.10. Whenever attempt to add event is made, several
hundred records of the same event are made. Observed
activity in MySQL Administrator shows connections being
added in a seemingly endless loop. Either max
connections are reached or I kill them all first. Of
course, the hundreds of event instances show up on the
calendar at the time scheduled.

As I noted in a forum message also, the PHP setting has
'register_globals' set to ON. Web host support tells
me they can't change that because the server is shared
and the OFF setting will break another client's site.
I don't know if this PHP setting has anything to do
with the observed problem, but I thought it good to note.

The identical Datenator installation does not exhibit
the bad behavior on the local development box, which is
Win XP SP2, running PHP5 and Apache 2.

Problem found to be intermittant. The addition of
diagnostic writes in a_event.php seems to remove the
problem. i.e., If echo statement(s) exist, the problem
described above has not yet occurred. Is there possibly
some additional MySql connection closing/clearing that
should be added after the queries in a_event?
