Hi Shane,

I have a CGIDEV2 application that authenticates using %%CLIENT%%. On V5R4, it puts the client's user ID as the Current User under WRKACTJOB. I have one user in the same application that has 5 separate jobs open. Is there a way I can suppress this into one single job?

The issue is that the browser is making several simultaneous connections to your System i.

Apache will certainly re-use the existing job with the same userid if it can -- but if the existing job is busy, then it will start up a new job to let two concurrent requests to be made from the browser. It's common for a browser to make many simultaneous requests -- for example, if it's showing a page with 10 images, the browser would typically attempt to download all 10 images at once so that it can display them all at about the same time.

So if that happens, you'd end up with 10 jobs for the userid, since it needs separate jobs to handle each request.

I don't know of any way to "solve" this problem. Why would you want to? Is it causing a problem?
