I haven't used the PHP program call stuff yet, but in general if you're
doing program calls from a web application you want to make sure your
program call handles errors without a hard halt resulting in a QSYSOPR
message.
This appears to the end user as if the web application locked up when in
fact it's waiting for a CPF response in QSYSOPR.
If you're getting odd decimal data problems you may want to pass values
to your programs as strings and convert the data in the RPG program.
Food for thought.

Alfred said:
Have you looked in the Apache error logs
in /usr/local/Zend/apache2/logs/?
You can also inspect i5_error( ), i5_errno( ), or i5_errormsg( ) after
your call.
Problem is not with finding my PHP errors. These are printed out on our
development server. The problem is the message sometimes doesn't give
any
useful information.

Do you have an example of one of these errors?
Sometimes the PHPJOB will hang on a message. Other times I will just
get
something like this on the screen:
Could not call program: QWX2221
...or something like that. I had a similar message yesterday when a
decimal data error occurred. I had to dig around in my PHPJOB jobs
until I
found a message that clarified what happened. Perhaps something in my
configuration is causing this?
