I may be in a minority here .. very sparse information found so far on this ..
I would like to configure Tomcat 5.0.27 to run PHP 5.0.1 scripts on Tomcat server (in addition to PHP running on Apache server). I do understand that PHP usually runs on Apache server (I have that combination working already). I need a "hybrid" configuration. ______________________________________________ My configuration:- Two servers running on same Windows XP Pro platform (localhost testing mode) .. * Apache 2 running PHP 5.0.1 (port 88) * Tomcat 5.0.27 running some webapps (port 8080) Also, Apache server is connected to Tomcat server via mod_jk2 connector but I also require PHP 5.0.1 scripts to run on Tomcat 5.0.27.. .. for PHP (Apache) <-------> PHP (Tomcat) inter-server communications. ______________________________________________ Searching around I found this single reference:- http://wiki.apache.org/jakarta-tomcat/Tomcat/UsingPhp note: on that site I read this .. ________________________ 3. Patch for PHP configure Script This is a patch for PHP's configure script to account for the servlet jar name change (from servlet.jar in Servlet Spec 2.3 and previous [tomcat 4 and previous] to servlet-api.jar in Servlet Spec 2.4 and above [tomcat 5 and later]): ________________________ I do have servlet-api.jar in my Tomcat 5.0.27 configuration .. \common\lib\ Does this mean I need to compile PHP 5.0.1 from source (I have used the PHP binary installer, not a build)? I have in c:\Tomcat5\common\lib\ phpsrvlt.jar (copied from PHP) servlet-api.jar ______________________________________________ Here is what I have setup so far in Tomcat 5.0.27 .. (1) copied phpsrvlt.jar from c:\php\ext\ into c:\Tomcat5\common\lib\ (2) enabled php_java.dll extension (from this link .. http://uk2.php.net/java/ ) not sure if I really need this .. but enabled it anyway extension=php_java.dll (3) in C:\Tomcat5\conf\web.xml .. <mime-mapping> <extension>php</extension> <mime-type>application/x-httpd-php</mime-type> </mime-mapping> <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>index.php</welcome-file> <welcome-file-list> But note ... no PHP 5.0.1 servlet mapping has yet been created in Tomcat web.xml. Is there a PHP 5.0.1 servlet mapping definition somewhere? ______________________________________________ Summary:- Is there a configuration guide anywhere for configuring PHP 5.0.1 to run on Tomcat 5.0.27 ... showing php.ini settings, and other settings in Tomcat? ______________________________________________ Thanks d~l
