What's new in IQWF Server 11.0.7R?

  • FTP server now multi-threaded--one thread per configurable number of clients. IQ FTP Server can now take advantage of multiple CPUs/CPU-cores by load-balancing among them.
  • The engine service application now depends on Tcpip to prevent ill-opening when no Windows user is logged in
  • ISAPI fixed for php5isapi.dll and others with DLLs pooled in memory so that you can serve scripts ultra fast!
    (Note: There is a downfall of PHP under IQWF--scripts cannot be run from virtual folders outside the home folder. For example:
    Home Folder: C:\NFRoot. Do not run scripts from C:\InetPub\wwwroot, D:\, E:\, etc...
    Also, for ISAPI PHP to run well, please set the Doc_root = <home folder (by default, "C:\NFRoot")> in PHP.ini. Since ISAPI DLLs are pooled in memory while the server is running, make sure you restart the server to have changes in php.ini take place.
