Re: Connectors -- PHP and Geronimo?

[tb...@yahoo.com]

Yeah, I see a bunch of articles on IBM, some here and
there, but they seem to avoid any and all declarative
security stuff.

Does anyone know of a way to configure PHP into
Geronimo? I think that would be a cool thing to be
able to do as well. I see JSP is built in, as well as
JavaScript. But at least for the time being, I think
leaving the declarative security stuff alone is my
best bet, time conserving wise.

What are your thoughts?

Re: Connectors -- PHP and Geronimo?

[Miguel A Paraz <mp...@gmail.com>]

Here's what I did with JBoss + Tomcat to get PHP apps running under
the same "host":
http://migs.paraz.com/w/archives/2005/06/20/tomcat-php-on-a-single-host

I'm curious about the configuration to make Geronimo Tomcat or Jetty
do the same... will try it out sometime.

Re: Connectors -- PHP and Geronimo?

[Barry van Someren <go...@gmail.com>]

PHP is really just an interpreter for a language that you can embed
(the whole idea of the php-java bridge)
You will however be running native code in your app server and it has
not been known to be super stable.
It's probably best to run Apache with php seperately.

I found this deeper solution on the code level for PHP developers
http://php-java-bridge.sourceforge.net/

The docs refer to Tomcat standalone - no idea if it will work with
Geronimo's embedded Tomcat.

Not as far as I know and therein lies the real issue. Here is a pretty
comprehensive list of languages built on a JVM:

perl -e 'print unpack("u30","D0G)U8V4\@4VYY9&5R\"F)R=6-E+G-N>61E<D\!G;6%I;\"YC;VT*"

The Castor Project

Apache Geronimo

Yeah, that would be cool. Has anyone done that?

Since there is no JVM runtime for PHP (as far as I know), you'll need
to use the PHP runtime for Apache httpd. Apache httpd will forward
specified URLs to Geronimo's web connector (Jetty or Tomcat) via AJP.

I guess that makes the question more specific: how to configure AJP on Geronimo?
