Re: Tomcat and openEJB - how to do this simple config?
Can anyone help, I'm still struggling with this??
EDIT: I think I managed to call the Calculator web service through PHP. I
used the script soap.php:
<?php
$client = new SoapClient("http://ww3.mysite.com/Calculator?wsdl");
var_dump($client->__getTypes());
?>
When I access soap.php in the browser I get:
array(4) { [0]=> string(41) "struct multiply { int arg0; int arg1; }" [1]=>
string(40) "struct multiplyResponse { int return; }" [2]=> string(36)
"struct sum { int arg0; int arg1; }" [3]=> string(35) "struct sumResponse {
int return; }" }
So I think that it has successfully called the service and grabbed the types
from it? I don't know how to code the PHP to actually do a simple addition
though.
Maybe I should start to think about getting a service setup for the MySQL
database?
EDIT2: I am now trying to setup the injection-of-datasource example, I've
changed the test java file so that its correct for my mysql database, but
during "mvn clean install" the process fails, saying it cannot find the jdbc
driver com.mysql.jdbc.Driver. The mysql-connector/J.jar is in my tomcat/lib
folder:

I do have another concern......from studying the injection example, all the
SQL is wrote in Java. This is something that we don't really want to do. We
want to call the connection written in Java from PHP, and then use that
connection to carry out mysql queries within PHP - is this going to be
possible? Or does all the SQL have to be writtin in the Java?

Re: Tomcat and openEJB - how to do this simple config?
Posted by jpmad4it <jp...@fortvale.com>.
Hi David,
Yeah I got it working :-)
I can run TYPO3 in Apache and send any JDBC calls to the PHP-Java bridge
running in Tomcat. So this allows us to use TYPO3 as normal with MySQL, and
any JDBC requests for IDMS can be sent to Tomcat. This is good because my
first thought was that I would have to run TYPO3 fully in Tomcat, and the
PHP-Java Bridge would have to be used to implement all of the PHP.......this
worried me because I didn't want ALL of the PHP to implemented using the
bridge. I like using PHP in the way it is designed to run, and the few IDMS
requests that we need are handled using the bridge.
Sweet!

Have you tried using the JDBC Driver directly from the PHP/Java
Bridge. Seems if you could get that to work that'd be the most direct
approach.

Re: Tomcat and openEJB - how to do this simple config?
Posted by jpmad4it <jp...@fortvale.com>.
Hi David,
Thanks for the reply once again.
I have had a chance to look into the EJB issue a lot more, and I think
you're right in saying that maybe its not the best solution.
Basically, at a high level view here is what we want to achieve:
IDMS --------JDBC-------Tomcat------ PHP/Java Bridge-----PHP-------TYPO3 CMS
|
|
MySQL
The non-IDMS technologies are running on Linux.
The issue causing all the problems is getting PHP to connect to IDMS. We
have to use JDBC because there is no IDMS ODBC driver available on Linux. So
this is where JDBC and Tomcat come into it. I have been experimenting with
the PHP/Java Bridge, and Quercus on Resin. I have found out that I can
actually run the TYPO3 CMS (all written in PHP) in Tomcat using the PHP/Java
Bridge. It allows me to connect to (via JDBC) and query both MySQL and IDMS
using SQL which is pretty cool.....but I'm worried that somewhere down the
line problems will crop up due to TYPO3 running in Tomcat (which its not
made to do). I tried Resin but that wouldn't install, so I tried quercus
standalone in Tomcat but it didnt give the same results as the PHP/Java
bridge.
I'd rather run TYPO3 in Apache and somehow send the JDBC requests to IDMS
via Tomcat.....but I dont know if that is possible? I do have Apache and
Tomcat mod_proxy(ed) together if that helps? Maybe someone knows of a better
setup?
In my posts I was only using EJB-----MySQL as an example, as the IDMS has
its own JDBC driver so the setup would have been pretty much the same.
So I was trying to get EJB to handle the JDBC connection to IDMS......but
I've learnt that I was going down the wrong route now.
Kind regards
Jonathan

I think this is the right dep:
<dependency>
<groupId>mysql</groupId>
<artifactId>mysql-connector-java</artifactId>
<version>5.1.6</version>
</dependency>
You can add that next to the openejb dep in the examples pom.xml file.

From this feedback it seems like the webservice approach may not
quite be the right direction for you.
Maybe we should zoom out a bit and get the bigger picture view of what
you want to do at a very high level and the motivation behind it. The
biggest question in my mind is what are you looking to get from the
java side of things and what limitations are you dealing with that
motivates it.
