apache and php and open connections on database
I have a php (4.1.1) website with apache (1.3.22) and use ociplogon to connect to oracle (8.1.7.2).
I noticing two things:
* while I am the only one on the website and there were no prior database connections open,
but after i worked a while on the side, I see that there are multiple connections opened.
should not normally ociplogon prevent this?
* Apache seems to keep a kind of http session pool, because of this there are also oracle sessions
that are kept open and these seem not to time out. Can this be prevented without killing the
session pool? This because we have order details on the site and stuff like that and I am afraid
that someone could accidently come to this part without logging in (using an existing connection).
thanks
