I find the CGI error occurs intermittently with the php script below(a simple script that
do nothing but keeps refreshing itself with a different value of parameter passed into it as GET, REMEMBER to open serveral instances to
run it.)

Teh message it returns is:
"CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:"

doit.php
8<-----------------------------------------------
<?
echo "<html><head><title>testing</title>";
if (isset($_GET["times"]))
	$times = ($_GET["times"]) + 1;
else
	$times = 0;

//SEE??? even i comment the statement out, infamous cgi error occurs,
STILL!
//$conn = mssql_connect('127.0.0.1', 'sa', '') or die("couldn't
connect");
echo "<meta http-equiv=\"Refresh\" content=\"0; URL=doit.php?times=" .
$times . "\"></head></html>";
echo "Trying CGI";
echo "<BR>$times";
//header("doit.php");
?>
8<-----------------------------------------------

My config.:
Windows 2000 Advanced Server with SP3
PHP 4.3.1 / 4.2.3 (both tested to have CGI problem)
P3-1G with 128MB RAM

I get
"CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers."

I run PHP as CGI on Windows 2003 Server Web Edition. Same error occurs on W2K, but not as often. I have a frameset consisting of about 10 different frames, of which about 6-7 loads PHP-pages. When refreshing the page I get the above mentioned error in one (any) of the PHP-containing frames at least 1 time out of 50, sometimes more. MS says this error occurs when the PHP-process ends prematurely, so the question is - why?

This is not a bug, what happens is that if you include a file into itself php starts a never ending loop that crashes CGI.
