Internet connection broken
Yesterday at 11:15 (or so) the internet connection was down at my ISP – it looked like a broken cable. They rerouted at the end of the afternoon so in the evening I did have connectivity again. This morning however, it was down again for a few hours, due to repair. Why they removed rerouting before the rupture was repaired – I don’t know. But it’s not the right thing to do ….
PHP again
Mark Berryman gave me something to work with: looking whether it is memory that causes problems with PHP7. He explained there are several big differences between versions 5 and 7: 7 id fully 64-bit and checks memory boundaries, something PHP 5 (32 bit) doesn’t. So the idea is to switch memory checks off by defining
$ DEFINE/SUS USE_ZEND_ALLOC 0
and he supplied special builds of the WASD PHP engine – but didn’t tell what the changes imply: Logging?

Tried them this evening – but without result.

I also set the memory boundary in PHP.INI to 512M – four times from the original. But even that didn’t help.

So back to the version that does work…

(There may be an issue with the database: Connection is lost, at times.. Perhaps PHP 5.2-13 does have problems as well??)
