using mySQL to communicate between PHP and Rev CGI Deamon

Has anybody tried to use a database backend such as mySQL as an intermediary between a frontend like php and a Rev application running as a backend deamon? The idea would be to have a php script insert requests into a mySQL database, and then have the Rev deamon constantly querying that

Hi David I would recommend checking out: http://www2.sahores-conseil.com/insead/index_en.html And of course: http://www.andregarzia.com/RevOnRockets/index.html I've had great success running rev daemons on in-house and on public webhosts from using a combination of the above methods.

More on php and Rev cgi

I'm still trying to interface with someone's php code using a Rev CGI. The php code is calling the CGI and passing some parameters. My CGI can read those parameters by accessing the globals $0,$1,etc. Then it does some stuff and writes a string to stdout. The problem we are having

Re: More on php and Rev cgi

Actually I think at minimum a php page needs that. The only difference between that CGI's return values and mine is that mine does not include a content-type header. We aren't writing to a web server so I didn't think that would be important. Is it? -- Jacqueline Landman Gay |

Re: PHP and Rev CGI

Jacque, A couple of quick thoughts: 1) PHP has a few commands - exec(), system() and passthru() which do similar things in terms of calling an external program. Documentation on php.net is quite good - just browse there and type in the command name in the search box. 2) If the Rev
