Sebastian, is the accesslog_id field of the pot_accesslog table a primary key? i.e. is it unique? From what I can tell in the source code it should be unique since you use the process id in calculating it. I don't know about MySQL but postgres has a special data type for generating unique keys called a serial. If MySQL has something similar why not use that? It would lessen the load on the web server (don't have check if posix_getpid functionality exists and no need to calculate a CRC) and also insures data integrity b/c the database generate a unique key for you (in postgres it's simply an integer. The DB adds 1 to it every time make an insert). Just a suggestion :) Jc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email sponsored by: Free pre-built ASP.NET sites including Data Reports, E-commerce, Portals, and Forums are available now.
