Sun, iPlanet and Netscape servers on Sun Solaris

This section contains notes and hints specific to Sun Java System Web Server, Sun ONE Web Server, iPlanet and Netscape server installs of PHP on Sun Solaris.

From PHP 4.3.3 on you can use PHP scripts with the NSAPI module to generate custom directory listings and error pages. Additional functions for Apache compatibility are also available. For support in current web servers read the note about subrequests.

You can find more information about setting up PHP for the Netscape Enterprise Server (NES) here: » http://benoit.noss.free.fr/php/install-php4.html

To build PHP with Sun JSWS/Sun ONE WS/iPlanet/Netscape web servers, enter the proper install directory for the --with-nsapi=[DIR] option. The default directory is usually /opt/netscape/suitespot/. Please also read /php-xxx-version/sapi/nsapi/nsapi-readme.txt.

1. Install the following packages from » http://www.sunfreeware.com/ or another download site:

   • autoconf-2.13
   • automake-1.4
   • bison-1_25-sol26-sparc-local
   • flex-2_5_4a-sol26-sparc-local
   • gcc-2_95_2-sol26-sparc-local
   • gzip-1.2.4-sol26-sparc-local
   • m4-1_4-sol26-sparc-local
   • make-3_76_1-sol26-sparc-local
   • mysql-3.23.24-beta (if you want mysql support)
   • perl-5_005_03-sol26-sparc-local
   • tar-1.13 (GNU tar)

2. Make sure your path includes the proper directories PATH=.:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin and make it available to your system export PATH.
3. gunzip php-x.x.x.tar.gz (if you have a .gz dist, otherwise go to 4).
4. tar xvf php-x.x.x.tar
5. Change to your extracted PHP directory: cd ../php-x.x.x

6. For the following step, make sure /opt/netscape/suitespot/ is where your netscape server is installed. Otherwise, change to the correct path and run:

   ./configure --with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql \
   --with-nsapi=/opt/netscape/suitespot/ \
   --enable-libgcc

7. Run make followed by make install.

After performing the base install and reading the appropriate readme file, you may need to perform some additional configuration steps.

Configuration Instructions for Sun/iPlanet/Netscape

Firstly you may need to add some paths to the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment for the server to find all the shared libs. This can best done in the start script for your web server. The start script is often located in: /path/to/server/https-servername/start. You may also need to edit the configuration files that are located in: /path/to/server/https-servername/config/.

1. Add the following line to mime.types (you can do that by the administration server):

   type=magnus-internal/x-httpd-php exts=php
   

2. Edit magnus.conf (for servers >= 6) or obj.conf (for servers < 6) and add the following, shlib will vary depending on your system, it will be something like /opt/netscape/suitespot/bin/libphp4.so. You should place the following lines after mime types init.

   Init fn="load-modules" funcs="php4_init,php4_execute,php4_auth_trans" shlib="/opt/netscape/suitespot/bin/libphp4.so"
   Init fn="php4_init" LateInit="yes" errorString="Failed to initialize PHP!" [php_ini="/path/to/php.ini"]
   

   (PHP >= 4.3.3) The php_ini parameter is optional but with it you can place your php.ini in your web server config directory.

3. Configure the default object in obj.conf (for virtual server classes [version 6.0+] in their vserver.obj.conf):

   <Object name="default">
   .
   .
   .
   .#NOTE this next line should happen after all 'ObjectType' and before all 'AddLog' lines
   Service fn="php4_execute" type="magnus-internal/x-httpd-php" [inikey=value inikey=value ...]
   .
   .
   </Object>
   

   (PHP >= 4.3.3) As additional parameters you can add some special php.ini-values, for example you can set a docroot="/path/to/docroot" specific to the context php4_execute is called. For boolean ini-keys please use 0/1 as value, not "On","Off",... (this will not work correctly), e.g. zlib.output_compression=1 instead of zlib.output_compression="On"

4. This is only needed if you want to configure a directory that only consists of PHP scripts (same like a cgi-bin directory):

   <Object name="x-httpd-php">
   ObjectType fn="force-type" type="magnus-internal/x-httpd-php"
   Service fn=php4_execute [inikey=value inikey=value ...]
   </Object>
   

   After that you can configure a directory in the Administration server and assign it the style x-httpd-php. All files in it will get executed as PHP. This is nice to hide PHP usage by renaming files to .html.

5. Setup of authentication: PHP authentication cannot be used with any other authentication. ALL AUTHENTICATION IS PASSED TO YOUR PHP SCRIPT. To configure PHP Authentication for the entire server, add the following line to your default object:

   <Object name="default">
   AuthTrans fn=php4_auth_trans
   .
   .
   .
   </Object>
   

6. To use PHP Authentication on a single directory, add the following:

   <Object ppath="d:\path\to\authenticated\dir\*">
   AuthTrans fn=php4_auth_trans
   </Object>
   

Hinweis: The stacksize that PHP uses depends on the configuration of the web server. If you get crashes with very large PHP scripts, it is recommended to raise it with the Admin Server (in the section "MAGNUS EDITOR").

variables_order = "GPCS"
register_globals = On

Error fn="php4_execute" code=XXX script="/path/to/script.php" [inikey=value inikey=value...]

Service fn="php4_execute" type="magnus-internal/directory" script="/path/to/script.php" [inikey=value inikey=value...]
