Title: Barebones PHP Installation on Sun One Web Server 6.1 for JDS2 Author: Hijinio Reynoso Jr. Last Updated: August 23, 2004 Summary: If you have installed Sun One Web Server 6.1 on the JDS (aka Java Desktop System from Sun), this will help you get PHP installed on it (without XML and MySQL support.) In any case, this should get you started which is better than not having it installed at all. These directions were based mainly on those available from PHP.net, but updated to meet the needs of this specific configuration. Instructions ---------------------------- 0. Make sure your web server isn't running and ensure that all JDS developer packages are installed; to be safe, I always ensure that all developer packages are available via Applications > System Tools > Administration > Software Installer 1. Download http://us3.php.net/get/php-5.0.1.tar.bz2/from/a/mirror and extract into the directory of your choice. (5.0.1 was the only version I could get to make install correctly) 2. CD into the extracted PHP directory and type: > ./configure --with-nsapi=/opt/SUNWwbsvr --enable-libgcc --disable-libxml (Your web server directory may vary from the above's default.) 3. Once it's done configuring (and it should be successful should you have all the proper packages), type: > make 4. When its done compiling, it's time to install as root: # make install 5. Now, configuration of your web server begins: # cd /opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-[yourWebServer]/config 6. vi mime.types (or other editor) to add this line into it: type=magnus-internal/x-httpd-php exts=php 7. vi magnus.conf to add the following 2 lines to end of it: (NOTE: the 2nd line could be optional) Init fn="load-modules" funcs="php5_init,php5_execute,php5_auth_trans" shlib="/opt/SUNWwbsvr/bin/libphp5.so" Init fn="php5_init" LateInit="yes" errorString="Failed to initialize PHP!" [php_ini="/path/to/php.ini"] 8. vi obj.conf to add the following line to <Object name="default">. Make sure this happens after all "ObjectType" entries and before any "AddLog" entries: (NOTE: for virtual servers, edit vserver.obj.conf) Service fn="php5_execute" type="magnus-internal/x-httpd-php" [inikey=value inikey=value ...] 9. Now, start up your web server. Also, make sure to log into the admin server and click the "Apply" button in there. You will also have set "index.php" as an index filename in your virtual server's Document Preferences. 10. Congrats! Now, you have PHP installed! Of course, there are other features you could enable (MySQL, XML, etc.), but I haven't tested against those.
