PHP/lighttpd Tutorial

« on: May 03, 2006, 13:31:55 PM »

Nico's testing packages seems to be no more, mbm (http://downloads.openwrt.org/people/mbm/mips/packages/) have PHP but for mips, not mipsel. (Being all new to this idea of Embedded Linux I don't know what difference there is).

It's too bad though, Rob's (older) versions are not as comprehensive compared to these. Any idea as to how/where to go to fix this?

[Must also tell you that you do great work!]

New url for this kind of packages is :

http://downloads.openwrt.org/backports/rc5/

I will update the tutorials as soon as possible.

Can't find a PHP-package in backports either, maybe on its merry (but slow) way?

I've resorted to thttpd-php in the meantime. One of these days I guess I'll have to setup my own SDK and stop bother you guys

You are quite right, the php package seem to be removed from Nico's repository.

I tried yesterday to get in contact with Nico with no luck.

I will try to get a hold of him - If I dont succeed, I will put the binaries on my downloads section.

php-packages are now available in the backports repository.

You can add the backports repository to your /etc/ipkg.conf file, so that all you need to do is to use ipkg install <packagename> just like with the base packages.

Your /etc/ipkg.conf file could end up looking something like:

Code:

src whiterussian http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/packages
src non-free http://downloads.openwrt.org/whiterussian/packages/non-free
src backports http://downloads.openwrt.org/backports/rc5
dest root /
dest opt /opt
dest ram /tmp

I tried to follow this tutorial today.. The lighttpd part is running well.
The cgi part doesn't work. I can't open the infophp.php... How come ?! I've installed all packages at the /opt. Maybe a good idea to check the tutorial again ??

To make it work when running from /opt plz try to do this:

Code:

cd /etc
ln -s /opt/etc/php.ini
cd /usr/lib
ln -s /opt/usr/lib/php

Then I hope it will run for you.

I tried to follow the tutorial for installing lighttpd/PHP. When I try to start the lighttpd daemon with ./S80lighttpd I keep getting this error:

1999-12-31 20:24:13: (configfile.c.429) source: /etc/lighttpd.conf line: 31 pos: 18 use => for assignments in arrays
1999-12-31 20:24:13: (configfile.c.802) configfile parser failed: index-file.names

I went over everything again and everything was done according to the tutorial. I'm not sure what is causing the error. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Figured out what was wrong. I had not erased the # from in front of the final ")" in the lighthttp.conf file where the server modules are defined. That might be a good thing to add to the tutorial. It states to remove the # in front of each of the modules that you are enabling but doesn't mention to remove the # in front of the last parentheses as well.
