-What is PHP4 sapi/servlet?
-
- PHP4 sapi/servlet builds upon the mechanism defined by ext/java to enable
- the entire PHP processor to be run as a servlet. The primary advanatage
- of this from a PHP perspective is that web servers which support servlets
- typically take great care in pooling and reusing JVMs.
-
- Notes:
-
- 1) While this code is intended to be able to run on any servlet engine,
- it has only been tested on Apache's Jakarta/tomcat to date. Bug
- reports, success stories and/or patches required to get this code
- to run on other engines would be appreciated.
-
- 2) PHP has a habit of changing the working directory. Sapi/servlet will
- eventually change it back, but while PHP is running the servlet engine
- may not be able to load any classes from the CLASSPATH which are
- specified using a relative directory syntax, or find the work directory
- used for administration and JSP compilation tasks.
-
-Build and execution instructions:
-
- Most of the configuration hassles associated with ext/java are associated
- with starting the JVM, and as such do not apply to sapi/servlet. In
- particular, no updates to php.ini are required on any operating system.
-
- Unix:
- Build:
- ./configure --with-servlet --with-java
- Execute:
- Put phpsrvlt.jar into your $CATALINA_HOME/lib directory
- add directory containing libphp4.so to LD_LIBRARY_PATH
- merge/overwrite build/tomcat/examples/WEB-INF/web.xml from sapi/servlet
-
- Win32:
- Build:
- add jdsk (or d:\build\tomcat\classes) to CLASSPATH
- build sapi\servlet\servlet.dsp
- Execute:
- Put phpsrvlt.jar into your $CATALINA_HOME/lib directory
- add directory containing php4ts.dll and phpsrvlt.dll to PATH
- merge/overwrite build\tomcat\examples\WEB-INF\web.xml from sapi\servlet
+Java Servlet SAPI Module for PHP 4
+
+
+ Introduction
+
+ The Java Servlet SAPI Module allows for the execution of PHP 4 as
+ a Servlet from within a Java Servlet Engine, such as Apache's
+ Jakarta Tomcat [1]. It builds upon the mechanism defined by PHP's
+ Java Extension, which can be found in /php4/ext/java.
+
+ The primary advanatage of this from a PHP perspective is that web
+ servers which support servlets typically take great care in
+ pooling and reusing Java Virtual Machines (JVMs).
+
+ While this code is intended to be able to run on any servlet
+ engine, it has only been tested on Apache's Jakarta Tomcat to
+ date. Bug reports, success stories and/or patches required to get
+ this code to run on other engines would be appreciated; please
+ send them to the PHP Development Mailinglist.
+
+ Note: PHP has a habit of changing the working directory. The Java
+ Servlet SAPI Module will eventually change it back, but while PHP
+ is running the servlet engine may not be able to load any classes
+ from the CLASSPATH which are specified using a relative directory
+ syntax, or find the work directory used for administration and JSP
+ compilation tasks.
+
+
+ Installing PHP as a Servlet into Apache's Jakarta Tomcat
+
+ 1.) Build the PHP 4 Java Servlet SAPI Module
+
+ UNIX
+
+ o ./configure --with-servlet --with-java
+
+ o Add directory containing libphp4.so to LD_LIBRARY_PATH
+
+ Windows
+
+ o Build ext/java/java.dsp, copy php_java.dll to your
+ extension_dir directory and enable the extension in the
+ php.ini
+
+ o Build sapi/servlet/servlet.dsp
+
+ o Add directory containing php4ts.dll and phpsrvlt.dll to
+ PATH
+
+ 2.) Tomcat 3
+
+ * Add phpsrvlt.jar to CLASSPATH
+
+ Tomcat 4
+
+ * Copy phpsrvlt.jar into your $CATALINA_HOME/lib directory
+
+ 3.) Tomcat 3
+
+ * Merge or overwrite build/tomcat/examples/WEB-INF/web.xml
+ with the configuration directives from the web.xml file
+ that comes with the Java Servlet SAPI Module.
+
+ Tomcat 4
+
+ * Merge the configuration directives from web.xml file that
+ comes with the Java Servlet SAPI Module into your
+ Tomcat/conf/web.xml configuration file.
+
+ Make sure that the element ordering of the web.xml is laegal
+ with Tomcat and put all the <servlet> declarations first,
+ followed by all the <servlet-mapping> declarations.
+
+ * Add
+
+ <welcome-file>index.php</welcome-file>
+
+ to the
+
+ <welcome-file-list>
+ ...
+ </welcome-file-list>
+
+ block of your Tomcat/conf/web.xml configuration file.
+
+ 4.) Test your installation by creating a test.php file in your
+ Tomcat/webapps/ROOT directory with
+
+ <?php phpinfo(); ?>
+
+ in it.
+
+ Access this file in your browser at
+
+ http://localhost:8080/test.php
+
+ and you should see the familiar output of phpinfo().
