We are aware of PHP's problems with stability under IIS and are working

to rectify the problem. Unfortunatly your bug report does not contain
any
extra useful information and we already have enough bug reports open
about
this issue. If you can provide more detailed information such as a
reproducable crash or a backtrace please do so and reopen this bug.
Otherwise please keep trying new releases as we are working to resolve
the problems on this platform

Thanks for your interest in PHP.

DB-Lib has been deprecated by the vendor, but is still in use in a lot
of production databases. CT-Lib is the currently supported way to
access Sybase databases.

I'm not 100% certain PHP documentation needs to differentiate here,
because the people who need sybase support generally know already which
one they need.

Description:
------------
The Sybase documentation doesn't clearly differentiate between
Sybase-DB and Sybase-CT. Some functions exist while compiling
--with-sybase-ct that don't exist (undefined) when using --with-sybase
and this needs to be recognized in the documentation. Is Sybase-DB
deprecated? Perhaps someone familiar with Sybase/MSSQL can comment on
all of this as I could be way off base here.

AFAICT (as a person who's never used either Sybase) the following
functions only exist in Sybase-CT:

sybase_unbuffered_query()
sybase_fetch_assoc()
sybase_set_message_handler()
sybase_deadlock_retry_count()

Source files:
http://lxr.php.net/source/php-src/e...php_sybase_ct.c
http://lxr.php.net/source/php-src/e...php_sybase_db.c

This should all apply to MS SQL as well.
