Patch for sapi/servlet/servlet.java

enum is now a reserved word with Java 5, thus causing servlet.java to break the make process.

PHP Installation

• Extract the source code to PHP in a work directory
• Patch if needed (that is, patch if building PHP to run with Tomcat version 5 or later)
• Run configure, then make in the top directory of the PHP sources:

  No Format
  ./configure --with-servlet=$TOMCAT_HOME --with-java=$JAVA_HOME make

• A jar file and dynamic library are produced from the make: sapi/servlet/phpsrvlt.jar and libs/libphp4.so.
  
• Copy the jar file to your web application's class repository, or, alternately, to Tomcat's common class repository (as is shown here):

  No Format
  cp $PHP_HOME/sapi/servlet/phpsrvlt.jar $TOMCAT_HOME/common/lib

  
  
• Declare PHP servlet and servlet-mapping in the web applications web.xml file, or in Tomcat's shared web.xml file:
  • Copy from $PHP_HOME/sapi/servlet/web.xml the servlet and servlet-mapping and paste into the file $TOMCAT_HOME/conf/web.xml.
    
• Modify your LD_LIBRARY_PATH to include the dynamic library produced in the first step above:

  No Format
  LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$PHP_HOME/libs export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

  • As an option, you can put libphp4.so someplace where java is already looking, any place in System.getProperty("java.library.path"), such as any of:

    No Format
    /usr/lib/jdk1.5.0_04/jre/lib/i386/client:/usr/lib/jdk1.5.0_04/jre/lib/i386:/usr/lib/jdk1.5.0_04/jre/../lib/i386

Testing

Verify the following is in your webapp's web.xml (creates the servlet entries and maps .php to that servlet and mentioned in the PHP installation steps above):

    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>php</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>net.php.servlet</servlet-class>
    </servlet>
    <servlet>
        <servlet-name>php-formatter</servlet-name>
        <servlet-class>net.php.formatter</servlet-class>
    </servlet>

    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>php</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>*.php</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-mapping>
        <servlet-name>php-formatter</servlet-name>
        <url-pattern>*.phps</url-pattern>
    </servlet-mapping>

Verify that phpsrvlt.jar is in you WEB-INF/lib directory, or the tomcat common/lib directory (as mentioned above in the PHP installation steps)

Create a file named test.php in the docBase directory of your webapp.
