January 2, 200818 yr I'm using pfp FX class with a filemaker database. my question is how many people can simultaneously access the database via php and what happens once the maximum number of connections is reached? What happens when the maximum of 250 user connections is reached via the client? What are the workarounds, if any, to accomodate more users per application?
January 2, 200818 yr PHP works through the Web Publishing Engine using Custom Web Publishing, so the maximum number of connections from the WPE to the database server is 100. If 250 FMP clients (or a number of FMP clients and up to 50 ODBC/JDBC clients totaling 250) are connected, no more can connect. Steven
January 3, 200818 yr Regarding what happens when you hit the limit with PHP - the FX class will probably throw an error. Additionally the connection only lasts in most cases for less than a second - or however long the data request takes.
