We're running our website on ZendServer CE 5.0.4 and EllisLab's Expression
Engine 2.1.3 (CMS) . The latter is built on the CodeIgniter framework and
MySQL. It's been working great for us, so I think Jon is right that you
would be well served upgrading to ZendServer. I haven't had much time to
learn and code with CodeIgniter to this point, but it should run fine on
IBM i with MySQL or DB2. I believe functions from the Zend framework (and
possibly the PHP toolkit for IBM i) can be integrated as well. At least,
I've read something about that online, though I haven't gotten around to
testing it yet.

Guidance.
Kevin,
You appear to still be using Zend Core which is way out of date and will
not be helping. Indeed it may be part of the problem. Although I've not
used CodeIgniter, I have seen problems with a number of php packages that
are caused by the "two apaches" used by the old Zend Core. There's no one
place to look, but the problem arises from the fact that the code picks up
a server variable (e.g. the client IP) and tries to use it in subsequent
connections. Because of the two apache servers this information will
sometimes be "incorrect". There is an Apache directive that can be added
(although I'm danged if I can recall it) that corrects some of the
problems - in other cases a tweak of the script is called for.
In your case I'd advise updating to Zend Server because:
a) It is much faster
b) It may well cure the problem and
c) Even if it doesn't fix the problem, the code tracing capabilities will
help you narrow it down - they really are magic.
