I am trying to install a PHP Java Bridge as per the instructions on http://php-java-bridge.sourceforge.net/pjb/index.php on Windows 7
I have PHP working fine on via IIS installed at c:\php
I copied the JavaBridge.war to c:\php which proved to get a good result from the test (running from c:\php)
java -classpath JavaBridge.war TestInstallation
I installed Tomcat 7 and copied the JavaBridge.war to webapps, which the service extract automatically and I am able to get the expected result from
http://localhost:8080/JavaBridge/
All Ok Great!
However when I do the same with the JavaBrigdeTemplate621.war, the browser
http://localhost:8080/JavaBridgeTemplate621/
returns an error
HTTP Status 500 - php.java.bridge.http.FCGIConnectException: Could not connect to server
I have not included the whole page as its very verbose, but the last root cause entry is
root cause
java.io.IOException: PHP not found. Please install php-cgi. PHP test command was: [php-cgi, -v] php.java.bridge.Util$Process.start(Util.java:1145) php.java.servlet.fastcgi.FCGIProcess.start(FCGIProcess.java:68) php.java.bridge.http.NPChannelFactory.doBind(NPChannelFactory.java:94) php.java.bridge.http.FCGIConnectionFactory.runFcgi(FCGIConnectionFactory.java:88) php.java.bridge.http.FCGIConnectionFactory$1.run(FCGIConnectionFactory.java:109)
I've tried restarting IIS as well as Tomcat several times
What am I missing (It's Hot and it's Friday ....)
I notice that
\webapps\JavaBridgeTemplate621\WEB-INF\cgi\x86-windows
has a text file called php-cgi.exe.MISSING.README.txt
where as
\webapps\JavaBridge\WEB-INF\cgi\x86-windows
has php-cgi.exe, php5ts.dll and php.ini
Is there another manual step required to get those in there not documented in the instructions?
