THank you very much Angsuman for the tutorial. How ever, as many user, I didn't success to make it work. The only thing I didn't do exactly as you described is the unjar the jar. I had to do it with winzip. I just changed the extension .jar to .zip.. I worked on the files as you said, and than I rezipped the file and finally changed the .zip to .jar again. can this cause problems? bellow are the lines of error that I get: -------- The first time that I lunch tomcat, I get all these errors : exception javax.servlet.ServletException: "Servlet.init()" pour la servlet php a généré une exception org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:102) org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:298) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:852) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11Protocol.java:588) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:489) java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) cause mère java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(Unknown Source) java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary0(Unknown Source) java.lang.System.loadLibrary(Unknown Source) net.php.reflect.loadLibrary(reflect.java:34) net.php.reflect.(reflect.java:29) net.php.servlet.init(servlet.java:157) org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:102) org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:298) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:852) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Protocol$Http11ConnectionHandler.process(Http11Protocol.java:588) org.apache.tomcat.util.net.JIoEndpoint$Worker.run(JIoEndpoint.java:489) java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) ------- After that, every time I reload the page, I get the following : java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:190) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:214) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:717)

I can not leave from this site without saying that this is a very useful tutorial. One thing for those who try this tutorial please be careful about the jar and unjar file.Use this link as a pathway https://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/tooldocs/windows/jar.html this took me around a hour to figure out then for me it was working. Best regards

All the tips that is mentioned does work. I am telling this with confidence as i have faced all the problems that each of you had faced. Hmmmmm...Now i will relax :) Thanks again

April 28, 2009: 10:32 am
Thanks for the helpful HOW-TO. I had some hard time finding the files php5servlet.dll and php5srvlt.jar, but thanks to Google, everything was put in place :) However, when I browse to https://localhost:8080/php/index.php (the URL in my case) I get HTTP 404 error saying: message: Servlet php in not available description: The requested resource (Servlet php is not available) in not available. Any help or hint is really appreciated. Thanks

March 16, 2009: 10:28 am
Thanks for sharing.

March 14, 2009: 11:59 pm
I was trying this too. Tried taking all the latest libraries and follow the tutorial. But it did not work. Unsatisfied link error. For some reason pecl-5.2.6 does not have the mentioned files or jar. so reverted back to pecl-5.2.5 and it had the necessary dll and jar. However it did not work until all the dll's were moved to C:\windows\system32. After moving the dlls there everything worked. - shah al

Hi, I downloaded latest versions - pecl-5.2.6-Win32 and php-5.2.6-Win32. But I could not find php5srvlt.jar any where, even in pecl-5.2.6-Win32 as explained. Where do i get this jar file? Thanks in advance. Ashok

August 22, 2008: 7:23 am
hi, how can i cinfigure php 5.2.6 in apache tomcat 5.5 in linux , i need the complete help ,from php installation ashok

I hope you understand it is very hard to keep supporting this post so long down the line. The post was written in 2004. I am closing the post for further comments. Please read the comments above. All types of problems have been addressed and solved at some time or other. If you still need help please contact me directly using the form / email provided in the top-left corner of this page. Best, Angsuman

June 24, 2006: 4:48 pm
Geez, this is killing me! I can't run a PHP application (clicking from screen to screen) for more than maybe 5 minutes! Tomcat keeps crashing! See my previous post (# 192). Any recommendations? -= Dave =-

June 23, 2006: 6:31 am
Ok, i made it like the guide above, read all the hints, but i get only: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php_java in java.library.path" when i call the test.php ;( I use apache-tomcat-5.5.17 pecl-5.1.4-Win32 php-5.1.4-Win32 WinXP SP2

June 21, 2006: 3:06 pm
I installed PHP 4 on Tomcat 5 using java 5 on Linux platform. It compiled correctly but when I run php page, it shows up in catalina.out instead of the browser. Any ideas?

June 20, 2006: 6:39 pm
and java servlets are all working fine… but i need to have php5 => php-java-bridge.sf.net

June 18, 2006: 9:50 am
Hi all, Just a quick post to pose my problem. Firstly, Angsuman thanks for your post and ongoing support far beyond the call. I have followed the instructions and used information from previous posts to solve most of the problems that i have come up against but now i am stumped. when i call my test.php file, it flashes up then my tomcat server dies and i have to restart it. other JSP and beans and java servlets are all working fine... but i need to have php5 and this is my last stumbling block. Once again thanks to you Angsuman as well as all the others who have contributed to this thread.

June 16, 2006: 12:43 pm
I have installed php 5.1.4 along with the pcl version 5.1.4. Tomcat version is 5.5.7. This is on a machine running Windows 2000. I have a php script that basically refreshes itself / executes again every 5 minutes. And while this script worked just fine on its old server (running IIS)... and seems to work fine most of the time now in this new environment, I'm finding that Tomcat will crash / won't stay up for more than an hour. This means I have to manually go back and restart my script. I located the hs_err_pid*.log files that occur with each crash. They commonly start with: # # An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine: # # EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x486b91e4, pid=3268, tid=3692 # # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_01-b08 mixed mode) # Problematic frame: # C [php5ts.dll+0x91e4] # So, I'm guessing this is indicating that php5ts.dll is where we're encountering some sort of problem that causes the crash. ? It seems like several people here have mentioned this problem... but it's unclear as to whether they can run PHP scripts for a while before it happens. Is anybody else having this happen after PHP is running scripts fine for a while? Does anybody know a solution to this? Thank you, Dave

June 14, 2006: 4:30 pm
I know that the line in both reflect.properties and servlet.properties should not have a space in it... but a line break / carriage return is okay, right? Sorry to be such a noob. -= Dave =-

June 14, 2006: 3:44 am
Good idea. Updated.

June 14, 2006: 12:14 am
Finally got it to work =) Got all of the errors noted above, and sure enough, after a reboot, the system works fine. You might want to add a reboot step at the end of your instructions. It would eliminate a lot of the problems with the unsatisfied link errors.

June 12, 2006: 5:16 pm
Thanks! Angsuman, your solution works. I am using php & pecl v5.1.4, still need to modify those two properties file and put the two jars (phpsrvlt.jar & php_java.jar) under common\lib. Someone should report the properties file "bug" if they belong to the php group. :-|

May 31, 2006: 10:06 pm
I am happy to know you got it running.

May 31, 2006: 9:42 pm
least, not list, sorry... ;)

May 31, 2006: 9:41 pm
well, i got it! i copied php.ini to the windir, normaly it wouldn't be needed, or at list with apache isn't, but it works... thanks anyway...

May 31, 2006: 8:43 pm
ok, i got tomcat using php, but i'm trying to postgres to work on the php, even though php.ini is well configurated it doesn't work, i tried to turn on mysql also but it didn't show up on phpinfo() either... Angsuman, did u got any database working with tomcat+php? it's urgent! thx PS: yes, i uncommented the extensions...

May 30, 2006: 2:58 am
I followed all the stages. Tomcat posts the php pages but interprete not scripts php. How I must make so that that functions? I use Tomcat 5.5 and php5.0.2 Merci

May 27, 2006: 10:04 am
I am working with: Java SDK version "1.5.0_05" Tomcat5.5.9 Php version 5.1.4 dated May 4 2006 10:30:29 Pecl library version 5.1.4 dated May 4 2006 I encountered several problems but now seem to be running. I unpacked class and property files from phpsrvlt.jar and php_java.jar. Here is my final configuration under Tomcat webapps phptest - contains "test.php" file with WEB-INF classes net\php\formatter.class net\php\reflect.class net\php\reflect.properties contains only library=php_java trailing space removed from original net\php\servlet.class net\php\servlet.properties contains only library=php5servlt ** NOTE spelling change from version in phpsrvlt.jar In the PHP home directory php.ini was modified to include extension=php_java.dll php_java.dll - from the PECL distribution php5servlt.dll - *** NOTE NAME CHANGE, was php5servlet.dll System PATH was modified to include PHP home directory. Next I am going to try getting Moodle running, wish me luck. Bill

March 14, 2006: 10:28 pm
To Mr. Chakraboty and those who have commented, Thank you for a useful tutorial. This is working perfectly for me with Tomcat 5.5.15, PHP 5.0.2, PECL 5.0.2 on Windows XP SP2. Best, Bryan

March 8, 2006: 10:37 am
This goes for Derek: the solution for the problem that you mention above is ver simple:

PHP Startup: java: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API=20040412 PHP compiled with module API=20041030 These options need to match

You are running PHP version 5.0.3, and the link posted in this article for downloading the Collection of PECL modules are for PECL modules version 5.0.2, so the solution is to download PECL modules 5.0.3 (pecl-5.0.3-Win32.zip) and extract the php_java.dll and overwrite the one that you have, thats all.

February 28, 2006: 1:35 pm
HI Angsuman, It worked for PHP5.1.2 and TOMCAT 5.0.28 with out any hicups. Thanks for the Article.

February 23, 2006: 2:44 pm
One other oddity: my download of PHP didn't include an 'ext/php_java.dll' file. I had to copy it across from the PECL download. Anybody else notice this?

February 23, 2006: 2:41 pm
Thanks for the walk through. I initially had a typo in the path to the PHP installation, which led to a "no php5servlet in java.library.path". I then had a rather nasty message along the lines of 'unknown entry point into php5ts.dll', followed by a java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError. As Joel has mentioned above, this is an incompatability issue with different versions of PHP & PECL. I was using the latest version of PHP, 5.1.2, and PECL 5.0.2. I downloaded PHP 5.0.2 (as specified in this tutorial) and all worked fine.

January 31, 2006: 11:14 am
Here is the stack trace for those who will search and find it javax.servlet.ServletException: "Servlet.init()" pour la servlet php a généré une exception org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:105) java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\php\php5servlet.dll: La procédure spécifiée est introuvable I beleive that you only need to change the php5servlet from the pecl5.0.2 to the pecl5.1.2 to make it work.

January 31, 2006: 11:07 am
Well Hi, I finally got the thing working. For does of you who have the _zval_dtor entrie problem. So here is what I did. I Install the 5.0.2 exacty has it is said in this article, then I took the php5servlet.dll and the php5ts.dll from the 5.1.2 version and it finally worked. Maybe I had a corrupted 0.2 version, or maybe my tomcat wasn't acting properly, but now it's working. Hope it will help someone.

January 25, 2006: 1:02 pm
HI, I have problem with the servlet. I'me getting a "La ressource demandée (Servlet php n'est pas disponible.) n'est pas disponible." So I was thinking to myself, maybe I haven't copy de php5servlet.dll onto my c:/php folder, but no... it is there. So I figured that I hadn't change the property files to php5servlet. But then again I've did. Now The only thing that I have that differt from this is that I haven't jar the class. They are under fun\WEB-INF\lib\phpsrvlt\net\php . Do you think that could be it? Fat chance cus I get a no classes found when I remove them.

January 12, 2006: 6:40 am
@Cristi Also you can contact me directly at angsuman[at]taragana[dot]com

January 12, 2006: 6:37 am
@Cristi Can you run any other code? Try this for example: <?php echo 'Hello World'; ?> Let me know.

January 12, 2006: 5:18 am
I restarted tomcat (i use tomcat v5.5). And the computer. Over and over again NOW, the thing is test.php runs. I have a loooot of information (what strikes me here is that it doesn't say anything about java (path, etc, etc), just jvm.dll is there. the rest is blank). But i cannot run anything else. You see I want to install phpbb but it's install.php gives me the error i specified. And i developed a java applet and a php script, that script runs and then it brakes the connection from time to time. I get that error again. WHAT IS GOING ON?! PLEEEEASE HELP ME! PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE!!!

January 12, 2006: 4:49 am
i understand. and i read it all. the problem is the solutions you guys provided don't seem to work for me. do you have time? cause i could enter all the stepts i've made. maybe you could figure something out....

January 11, 2006: 1:02 pm
Please check the comments above. I have provided solutions for this before and others have too. It is kind of hard providing free support after over a year of the original post :) Hope you understand.

I did add the php5srvlt.jar into the webapps\applicationname\WEB-INF\lib directory and restarted tomcat5.5 But Still getting the same error: The requested resource (Servlet php is not available) is not available.

December 13, 2005: 9:14 pm
Jaya, Please refer to the comments above for clarifications. In short your jar file is not where it should be.

December 13, 2005: 4:48 pm
HI, I am trying to install php for tomcat 5.5 as mentioned in thw above steps. This is the error i am getting, not sure how to resolve it. Error: javax.servlet.ServletException: Wrapper cannot find servlet class net.php.servlet or a class it depends on java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.php.servlet Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks Jaya

December 8, 2005: 10:13 am
Where is your php5servlet.dll? Also check your jar file to ensure the location is properly specified.

December 8, 2005: 6:47 am
I am yet another failure with the java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path error. Have read all the posts. Tried & checked the various solutions a number of times & in different combos [no whitespace; dll in right place; add c:\php to path; jar in common/lib; restart Tomcat; restart XP...] I also tried starting php from the command line as per comment #51; and I got the error message: PHP Startup: java: Unable to initialize module Module compiled with module API=20040412 PHP compiled with module API=20041030 These options need to match Could this be the source of the error and, if so, how do I fix it? Thanks!

November 29, 2005: 11:17 am
I'm seeing the 'Module Java already loaded' warning the first time I access a php script after restarting Tomcat. I do not get the warning again until after I restart Tomcat. I have my php.ini file in my php directory and my winnt directory and that doesn't make a difference. Anyone found anything else out on this issue?

November 18, 2005: 1:11 pm
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU Edur...That's the exact problem I had. I recently upgraded from an older version of PHP and the php.ini was in the WINNT directory. I moved as you suggested and it WORKS! Thanks Angsuman for the great instructions as well. Might I add one suggestion? Can you emphasize that the php.ini should be in the directory so other dimwits like myself don't have this problem.

November 18, 2005: 12:43 pm
Thanks Edur.

November 18, 2005: 11:20 am
Angsuman, thanks for your wonderful guide. It's been very useful to me. It works right, no problems at all. To Kevin II: I've got the "Module java already loaded' error too. As I had an old PHP version, I had my php.ini in c:\windows, so when I changed to php5 I put the new php.ini in the same place. But, as you can see in point numbre 4 "Copy php.ini-dist, in c:\php, as php.ini" it must be at c:\php. I hope this will help you

November 17, 2005: 1:57 pm
Can anyone who solved the "Module java already loaded" issue please post their solution. I am abont to pull my hair out with this problem. I have gone through the steps at least a dozen time. I have removed and reinstalled java, tomcat, php, restarted the server, restarted tomcat, same problem. I am running Tomcat 5.0.28, php 5.0.5 and jre-1_5_0_04 on win2k. I really need help with this. java.io.IOException: net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:190) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:214) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) Thanks Kev

hi, I have managed to install php on tomcat.But it doesn't work properly. works.But other content of a page will not be dispalyed on the browser, it is displayed on the console of tomcat:( That is, I have a file named test.php: hello if I try to access it, phpinfo prints php infomation in detail, but "hello" is not showed! Instead the tomcat console prints "hello". I have tried phps from opensource php project( to make sure the problem is not my php file), they fail too php version is 5.05 tomcat is t.0.28 And idea what is the problem?

October 26, 2005: 9:03 am
Might be outside the scope of this thread, but I was hoping someone might be able to point me in the right direction. I am able to get PHP (using 5.0.5) to work with my tomcat install (5.0.28). However, for some reason I can't get the php pages to connect to MySQL. I've followed directions in other posts about uncommenting the extension and where to place the php_mysql* and libmysql files, but I still get an error message about mysql_connect not being valid. Anyone have any suggestions or know of any problems with this kind of setup?

October 22, 2005: 1:33 pm
Just thought Id publish this tip since I got these instructions pretty much working out of the chute, but ran into an issue posted above. The test.jsp page worked fine for me as phpinfo() would display correctly on my tomcat server. However, all other php pages were being output to the tomcat console window. I realized that I used the php.ini-recommended file as my php.ini, since I started to read the php installation instructions before this page. After diff'ing the two files, I found the culprit variable. Turn the setting: output_buffering = Off in your php.ini and all should work fine. output_buffering should be set to off.

Yes, Sorry to be this late with my answer, but here it comes anyways :) I have JDK 1.5.0_05 installed. In addition have the enterprise edition on my machine for development purposes.

October 13, 2005: 12:13 pm
@Surtr Did you have JDK installed in your machine? It appears that was not the case. Otherwise with JDK (and JRE) installed you shouldn't need that dll.

October 13, 2005: 9:19 am
Hi all, I wrestled with the following issue for two days and then finally found a solution to it. I kept getting this error over and over again and tried everything that people had suggested on this site, but no use. "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\PHP\php5servlet.dll: Can’t find dependent libraries" Finally I got pissed with everything and started doing thigns the difficult way. It turned out that the solution would eventually have saved me many hours of useless configuring. I found an application called "Dependency Walker" (go google it) and did a dependency search on the php5servlet.dll. It turned out that I was really missing one dll in my system: msjava.dll, This file I then downloaded from the www.dll-files.com. Now EVERYTHING is running smoothly. I hope that this post helps you guys all! Enjoy :)

October 12, 2005: 6:06 am
Please double-check the instructions to ensure you have done everything as detailed. Then check the comments above for sugestions. However first try to reboot your machine and see if it solves the problem.

October 12, 2005: 12:20 am
nah it was like that but it wouldnt let me post with the tags. But i got past that error, now im stuck at the description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request. exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet.init() for servlet php threw exception org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:105) org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteAdapter.service(CoyoteAdapter.java:148) org.apache.coyote.http11.Http11Processor.process(Http11Processor.java:868) root cause java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\PHP\php5servlet.dll: Can't find dependent libraries java.lang.ClassLoader$NativeLibrary.load(Native Method) [snipped] I have made sure there aren't any spaces in the properties files, i recreated the jar file, ive tried restarting, tried moving the jar file to the common lib. Still got nothing :( Thanks in advance

October 11, 2005: 10:25 pm
Thanks Rich.

October 11, 2005: 10:22 pm
@Kevin That is not proper php. Try this: <?php phpinfo(); ?>

October 11, 2005: 9:04 pm
php phpinfo();

October 11, 2005: 9:03 pm
for above

October 11, 2005: 9:03 pm
Some1 please help I've tried to install this multiple times to no avail. When i run that test page i get displayed and thats it. Anyone know the solution for this?

October 7, 2005: 10:38 pm
This How-To is awesome. It helped me get jump started quickly with what I needed to do. I will add this though. For anyone who is having quirky problems and you know that you have everything right try rebooting your machine. As simple as that sounds it solved the problem I have been wrestling with for the last 2 hours.

October 2, 2005: 4:18 pm
... actually I was wrong and I guess lucky or something as it now still crashes when reloading pages (but with JDK 6.0 most of my php pages didnt actually work at all). I scrolled up and read the comments and tried to copy the php5srvlet.jar to tomcat/common/lib but it didnt help :( - still getting java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Native Library C:\PHP\php5servlet.dll already loaded in another classloader. So it shouldn't copy the jar to web-inf/lib this way? Because it still does. Maybe it's got something to do with the fact that i'm using Intellij IDEA's Tomcat integration. I'm so new to all this. Sorry if this has been mentioned in some comments above but i tried to glance through them and didnt find solution.

October 2, 2005: 2:25 pm
OK, it worked after rebooting computer. After that I was getting lots of weird errors like ClassLoader already in use etc. and they all vanished after switching from Mustang to Tiger. Thanks for a nice article

October 2, 2005: 12:54 pm
After long frustration I've almost gotten it to work. But I'm still getting: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path I already removed the blank spaces so it's not that. I also have C:\PHP\ in windows's environment variables. I also tried to add the native libraries with VM flag -Djava.library.path=C:\PHP\ But this results into: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: C:\PHP\php5servlet.dll: Can't find dependent libraries Anyone?

October 1, 2005: 8:55 pm
@Elmer Good to know it worked for you. I did mention that in comment 91 above.

After verification of the above, just add c:\php to your system path (just to be safe). Restart Tomcat and try again.

@Prasad Please re-check the steps carefully. Also take some time to read the comments as there are valuable hints there. Let me know if the problem still persists.

October 1, 2005: 11:33 am
Hi everyone, i had this problem for the longest time: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path I set the %PATH% to c:\php but it still would not find it. If any of you are using Tomcat monitor, try adding c:\php to the working path in configurations. This solved the problem for me. Restart and try it. Hope this helps. Thanks for the tutorial

September 17, 2005: 8:26 am
Loaded PHP and tomcat and followed all the steps. But Blank sceen is being displayed when I am running the test.php page.

September 3, 2005: 7:56 pm
Just solved the link error problem, like Sam above, by rebooting (also XP Pro SP2). Might the problem be in running Tomcat as a service? Starting and stopping is not enough. Thanks for really good page and your patience with all of us :-)

September 1, 2005: 3:15 pm
Thanks very much for this information. I now have a Lotus Domino server serving the public with tomcat\php running behind the scenes locally to generate jsp and php pages. Absolutely awesome!!!

July 13, 2005: 11:01 am
Wonderful. So you are done.

July 13, 2005: 2:55 am
Sorry before when I said I invoked it ommitted the actual command which was phpinfo(); Thanks Sam

July 13, 2005: 2:53 am
Hi, I thought I had successfully configured php for tomcat in windows as when I invoked: It seemed to work fine.. HOWEVER.. when I tried to issue a echo "BLAH"; nothing happends.. I have tried this on my work and home computer and the same results.. I have a requirement to build a php application to talk to our LDAP server.. Soo in short php is not working as I thought it would work.. Even when I put some html code outside the php tags nothing is rendered, nothing in view-source.. Any ideas?? Thanks Sam

July 10, 2005: 12:02 am
nice tutorial. Thanks, It seems to be working mostly correct. the phpinfo() outputs almost everything to the webpage, but my last few _ENV variables show up in the command window where the tomcat server startup info is displayed. Trying to output anything else sends it directly to the command window and the webpage comes up blank. Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

July 6, 2005: 6:26 am
Sorry.. just a quick one.. is it possible to use openLDAP with PHP and tomcat in windows ?? Thanks Sam

July 6, 2005: 4:46 am
Great tute, thanks Angusman!! OK..Well so that I wouldnt be *bitten* I read the tute maticulously..and even went through a hefty amount of questions.. though when I tried it all out.. I received the error "UnsatisfiedLinkError..." The problem is that for some F&*&*& reason, the User Path or System Path is not correctly refreshed in my environment.. SOO when I rebooted the machine (win xp pro sp 2) it worked fine! I JUST REALISED.. the shell (dos window) that I was running stop and start for the Tomcat Apache Service would have probably *NOT* been updated with the new Environment variables hence why I kept getting this error.. maybe if I had opened another dos window and re-issued the net stop/start tomcat5 command it would of worked.. anyways by rebooting it all worked fine which leads me to believe its just a PATH issue.. Thanks again Sam

June 28, 2005: 8:19 pm
@Felix That is a good idea. Having it in path is actually useful for other scenarios also like when you want to test your php scripts on command line. The reason I included it in path is bacause it makes installation simpler.

June 28, 2005: 6:39 pm
Awesome tutorial! Thank you very much. I would suggest that instead of adding C:\php to the path (as suggested in step 15) you may want to modify your Tomcat Properties (Start-Programs-Tomcat-Configure Tomcat), in Java tab add a line to Java Options: -Djava.library.path=C:\php or similar. Also, I have the same problem as in posts 79-80: the pictures in phpinfo() are not coming through. I don't know if anybody figured out what can be causing it.

June 27, 2005: 6:55 pm
@lfr It doesn't look like an installation problem. try upgrading to Tomcat 5.5 and see if that helps. That 22K is it for some php file or just to an ordinary servlet? BTW: If you have any suggestions on improving the instructions let me know.

June 27, 2005: 2:35 pm
Thanks for the instructions. I followed them and aftyer a few tries it works. Well, most of the time. I have a problem that when I send a POST messages with somehow large pieces of text (22K of XML code to be precise) it crashes Tomcat (5.0.18). Basically it hangs and after a while it dies. I tested the same files in a Linux installation and it ran fine. Has anybody found a similar problem? Is it a bug with php's servlet implementation? Or do you think I have a problem with my installation? I appreciate any help Thank!

June 17, 2005: 9:22 am
The post has been updated with Arundhati's comment. Thanks Arundhati.

June 17, 2005: 8:28 am
ARUNDHATI, thank you very much!! The issue are the blank spaces!!! I suggest Angsuman to update the instructions... And, of course, thank you a lot too, Angsuman

June 16, 2005: 12:12 am
Hello All, Whoever is getting this error "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path". Please check the two properties file, whether there are any blank spaces. I was stuck in this problem for 2 days. There should be only one line, and no blank spaces. Check it now!!!. This is where the problem is lying.

June 13, 2005: 5:39 am
exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet execution threw an exception at org.apache.catalina.core.ApplicationFilterChain.internalDoFilter(ApplicationFilterChain.java:269) … root cause java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path at java.lang.ClassLoader.loadLibrary(ClassLoader.java:1410) [snipped] i've tried all the given solutions but none worked except this suggested by Mr. Bahrat Soni "only system variable will work for php path setting , if u have created a user variable then it won't work and will give such exception so add the path c:\php in ur system variables......"

June 9, 2005: 12:03 am
@haudv Please double-check the instructions. Please refer to the comments above for additional information and clarifications. Try restarting the machine.

June 6, 2005: 7:25 pm
I have been keeping getting the "UnsatisfiedLinkError problem".I almost gave up. But, after reboot PC(Win2Kserver) , it works fine. Maybe rebooting tomcat is not enough to reset the PATH environment variables. Angusman,Thank you for very usefull article!

May 30, 2005: 8:57 pm
Please see all the comments and discussion above. You missed step 15. You just need to add c:\php to existing PATH variable. 2. Yes 4. Open it and make sure the path of the config files are same as before.

May 30, 2005: 2:04 pm
hey Angsuman, thanks for of this and to me this would be great if i could finally get it to work... unfortunatly I can only get : java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path to me i did all your step but there are just a few things i want to make sure : 1 - in step 15 you say : Add c:\php to your System or User Path in Windows enironment (Hint: Right-click and select Properties from My Computer) but what name should I give it? php? 2 - library=php5servlet... no lines or spaces after right? 3 - i moved the php5srvlt.jar from fun/WEB-INF/lib to commun/lib and then back again... no changes there 4 - phpsrvlt.jar is 16kb, but when I rejar it to php5srvlt.jar it goes down to 9kb.... i did what anuj says but it didnt change anything... my php5srvlt.jar is now 16kb thou... hope there is something I missed here and can be fixed... thanks for all your great work and the inout from everybody else... seems that i just cant see the light...

May 27, 2005: 5:28 am
Angsuman, I just got it working all toghether. The reason of the failure was that I had forgotten to place the php5servlet.dll in the windows/system folder. Thank you for your help and for using your time in helping other people ;)

May 26, 2005: 11:42 pm
Thanks Anuj.

May 26, 2005: 10:36 pm
Hello Guys, I was trying to install my php 5 under tomcat 5. I read the complete converstation as I was also facing the same problem of servlet like.. root cause java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.php.servlet [snipped] ------------------ Finally i got the solution.. It was suggested in the first message by Angsuman that after making the changes in the properties file, recreate the jar file using jar... I did the same way but when i saw the size of the new jar file and compared with the size of old jar file, it was varying a lot. So i opened my old-jar file in the winzip and opened the properties files and made the changes and then saved them on the hard-disk in c:\net\php\ Then in my winzip window i added those files by clicking the add button. Dont forget to check the check box which says "save full path info". Doing this replaced my properties files in the jar files with the new files i saved on the hard disk. I did the same way with both the files and got my same jar file modified with the required changes. This time my jar file was approx of the same size. Rest all i did same as suggested by Angsuman and it worked properly.. Thanks Anuj

May 26, 2005: 6:56 pm
Please check my comments 91 & 93. orbknives was recently having the same problem and it was solved. Maybe orbknives can also provide you some pointers...

May 26, 2005: 1:07 pm
Hi, i'm getting the following famous error when running Tomcat 5.5.4 and PHP 5.0.4: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) ... I swear I have followed all the steps: I changed the properties in phpsrvlt.jar to "php5servlet", and placed that jar in common/lib. I also put php5servlet.dll in the php folder. Do you think the problem may have to do with some CLASSPATH stuff? Thanks in advance.

May 25, 2005: 10:55 am
Is your exception identical to Meera's IOException above? Are you able to run normal JSP files from this web directory? It is trying to load some filter which is not correct. It shouldn't be loading any filter. Looks like a setup issue with Tomcat. Can you find out the version of Tomcat you are running?

May 25, 2005: 7:37 am
Have restarted Tomcat (actually using JBoss with embedded Tomcat) several times to no avail.

May 24, 2005: 11:49 pm
@orbknives On Linux: Tomcat is very stable and production grade. Tomcat-Apache combination is very stable and production grade. You will have to make some common sense changes, but overall the same idea is applicable on Linux too. I am assuming you will be serving JNLP file over a Tomcat server. Then you need to setup a Filter for .jnlp extension. In the filter code (java) you do whatever check is necessary. If the check succeeds then the user is able to download the jnlp file. @Rick First though. Restart Tomcat and check again. If that doesn't fix it, let me know.

May 24, 2005: 1:36 pm
I'm having trouble getting this to work. I've been at it for a couple of days, reading and re-reading all the posts. I've made it past the UnsatisfiedLinkError problem and am stuck on an java.io.IOException: ¸2Bm at net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) at net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:190) at net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:214) at javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:853) ...

May 24, 2005: 7:51 am
So in linux, shared objects are the key, but will your guide be applicable if il try it on linux??Bout the tomcat-apache, is it stable and reliable??Also i dont want to hi-jack this thread but im hardly in need of help now. So use a Filter to check the sql query before serving any jnlp file, actually im a newbie in php, so any idea how can i block or prevent to execute jnlp files where in my main.php file has some hyperlinks directly to the jnlp (file.jnlp)..The only solution i see is include a php script in the jnlp, but i don't know how to block the execution of that jnlp when it was click, something like this, (consider this as a jnlp).. if (!$authentication) exit(1); some scipt here So any idea?Or anything you think that can secure a jnlp file from executing if the condition was not met, ofcourse using php?? Again, Thanks!!!!!

May 24, 2005: 5:21 am
> By the way is it possible to do this in linux? Sure. Why not? You just have to use shared objects (.so files) instead of dll's. Normally though people, including myself, prefer running Apache server and configuring Tomcat to run with it and also php to run with it. It is much simpler that way. You can refer to 5 Simple Steps to Integrate Tomcat 5.5 with Apache 2.0 > can i include a php script inside a jnlp file?Where my script is a sql query, when the condition is not met, the php script will block the execution of the jnlp..Any idea?Is this possible?????? Why not use a Filter to check the sql query before serving any jnlp file?

May 24, 2005: 3:01 am
Angsuman thanks a lot!!Its working now!!!i owe you one!!!By the way is it possible to do this in linux??Ever planned to create a guide for linux too?? Also, can i ask something bout php?and jnlp files, can i include a php script inside a jnlp file?Where my script is a sql query, when the condition is not met, the php script will block the execution of the jnlp..Any idea?Is this possible??????

May 23, 2005: 10:10 am
Are there anyone else who still have problems setting this up?

May 23, 2005: 10:03 am
Verify that the configuration files are being jar'ed to the same directory structure. How? Rename the original jar file as .zip and open it in Winzip etc. Note the directory structure aka path of the configuration files. Ensure that it is the same after you have re-jar'ed the file Versions of Tomcat and JDK are fine. Try adding c:\php to the beginning of the PATH variable in System Properties.

May 23, 2005: 3:35 am
Ok thank you for the quick reply!!Actually i already read the whole thread, i seen same problem and i also followed those instructions but how come it didn't work for me.. Do i need to used a specific version of JAVA of Tomcat?? Im using j2sdk1.4.2_07 and tomcat 5.0.28..In the no. 5 & 6, yes i created a copy of php.ini-dist and renamed it as php.ini (Uncomment the line ;extension=php_java.dll ) and paste back it at c:\php. I also check that the php5servlet.dll (from pecl.zip) is in th c:\php.. On the 11 - 14, yes i extracted and created again the php5srvlt.jar using to unjar -> “jar xfv phpsrvlt.jar” to Recreate -> “jar cvf php5srvlt.jar net/php/*.* (are these are correct??) Ofcourse before i recreated the jar i edited the reflect.properties and servlet.properties to change the line library=phpsrvlt to library=php5servlet (question: do i need to include the '.dll' or just the php5servlet?) and i also checked that theres no left white spaces/lines. After the jar was created i paste it in WEB-INF\lib.. i even tried pasting it at tomcat\common\lib but same result...Bout the System variable, the NAME i inputed is PHP (uppercase) and C:\php for the value, is this correct??Thats all i did.. What could be the problem??What should i do next?i hope you will still help me till we fix this... Thanks...

May 23, 2005: 2:41 am
@orbknives Please check mine (comment No 87 and before) and others comments above which explains the solution clearly. AFAIK it solved it for all. In short check item no 5, 6 & 11-14. The php jar file is trying to load the dll (whose name you specified in 11-14) and failing. After verification of the above, just add c:\php to your system path (just to be safe). Restart Tomcat and try again. Let me know how it goes.

May 23, 2005: 1:18 am
heloo there Angsuman Chakraborty!!! Nice guide!But a litle prob here, as the same with others, the error: javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet.init() for servlet php threw exception org.apache.catalina.valves.ErrorReportValve.invoke(ErrorReportValve.java:105) [snipped] root cause java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5srvlt in java.library.path [snipped] always appearing, i dont know now what to do, im stuck, i did followed your guide neatly but dont have any clue!!!Please help, i actually need to run some php in jakarta!!!Thanks... P.S what j2sdk version, and tomcat version will work the best in this guide??Because someone here in our work required me to use j2sdk-1.4 and not the latest one (1.5).. And we are using tomcat 4.1.31 / 5.0.28.. Please help me... :(

May 6, 2005: 1:22 am
BTW: I am Bengali :) I think your Tomcat hasn't been installed properly in the first place. Can you run the example servlets & jsp? > java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/servlet/http/HttpServlet This is actually a core jar file which is part of the installation.

May 5, 2005: 9:15 pm
first of all, sorry about my poor english, i'm spanish :), and thx for the article ;) angsuman, copy the file php_java.dll in "extensions" and problem is solved (hope it helps. I think this is the problem i have a problem with the process, when i try to load the index.php (the page with php_info()) i have and exception. The exception is: 06-may-2005 11:37:14 org.apache.catalina.core.StandardWrapperValve invoke GRAVE: Excepción de reserva de espacio para servlet php java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javax/servlet/http/HttpServlet help please... thx in advance

May 4, 2005: 12:58 am
@Orcun Re-check steps 6 & 11-14. > Extract php5servlet.dll from pecl zip file to c:\php (Uncheck "Use Folder Names" in WinZip). Ensure that the file is actually present in c:\php Also ensure php_java.dll is under c:\php The problem is happening because it cannot find the dll file under php directory.

May 3, 2005: 10:01 pm
I've moved the jar file into the common/lib directory but the same error appeared again.

May 2, 2005: 10:27 pm
Please see the comments and responses above. To quote from my comment:

As the jar file is placed under web-inf/lib directory realoding the web container causes the dll to be reloaded again which fails. The simplest solution is to restart the server whenever there is a need to restart the web container. However to eliminate the problem totally you can place the jar under common/lib directory. That way it is loaded the tomcat classloader and is not restarted when the web container is restarted. Let me know if that helps.

Hi, all I've tried everything which is possible but still couldn't get the php configured for the tomcat. I've tried all the options, changing the servlet,reflect.properties but getting the specific error as: "Exception is -- > javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet.init() for servlet php threw exception" Infact I've restarted the tomcat server,but still not getting. Plz help. Regards Vijay

April 11, 2005: 11:27 pm
@Vincenzo It shouldn't affect your applications in any way which is good. However if you still want to fix it read on. I did several installations, never faced it. So I was wondering if you could please re-check the steps to see if you are missing any small details. Looks like the problem may be with your PHP configuration.

April 7, 2005: 8:07 pm
Tanks for your step by step tutorial. I had it working, with Tomcat 5.0.19 and php 5.0.4. I spend a lot of time due to an error defining the PATH environment variable to add the php path, and even after the correction it was using the old setting. A boot fixed it. The only problem left is that running the test.php with the phpinfo() it does not disply the tho icons PHP Logo and Zend logo. Any idea?

March 21, 2005: 4:31 am
@Manisha Please repeat step 6 & 11-15. I short you probably do not have the dll file extracted in proper place. But first restart the server and test again. Restart by itself may solve the problem as has happened for many.

Are there anyone who commented on this post who couldn't get it to running yet?

March 18, 2005: 8:56 am
Ah, "already loaded in another classloader" problem solved. Move the php5srvlt.jar file out of the tomcat directory and put it in the Java jre/lib/ext directory (C:\Java\j2sdk1.4.2_07\jre\lib\ext on my PC)

March 18, 2005: 8:25 am
Your tutorial was of great help in getting php connected, but only seems to work for the first php applicaiton that I hit on my web server. For instance if I copy webapps\fun to webapps\fun2 and restart Tomcat (4.0.6) and then access either of them, it works. But when I access the other one I get an error message: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Native Library C:\php\php5servlet.dll already loaded in another classloader I tried moving the jar file into the common\lib and modifying the web.xml in the conf directory to include the servlet ans servlet-mapping directives, but can't seem to find the right twist for it.

@Brian Why is php5ts.dll in your path? I don't remember seeing that.

March 17, 2005: 8:53 pm
Brian> I think you may have something wrong with your slashes possibly. However, the doctype isn’t required. You are correct. WordPress 1.5 messed up the double-quotes. I have removed them now. Thanks for the information.

March 17, 2005: 8:44 pm
Brian, Sorry for the delay in responding. The comments were getting gobbled up by a defective filter in WordPress 1.5 ( more on it soon ). I am looking at your problem now.

March 6, 2005: 2:45 am
im having trouble posting to your site maybe my post is too long... im trying to include an error log message

March 6, 2005: 2:44 am
So I've reinstalled everything and I'm still getting the same problems where after clicking a bunch of links on my page, my Tomcat server crashes. there is an error log in my system32 folder that is printing out the following. it looks like there is an error in php5ts.dll... and ideas??? # # An unexpected error has been detected by HotSpot Virtual Machine: # # EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x0583eced, pid=832, tid=3472 # # Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (1.5.0_01-b08 mixed mode, sharing) # Problematic frame: # C [php5ts.dll+0x3eced] # --------------- T H R E A D --------------- Current thread (0x032b1438): JavaThread "http-8080-Processor25" daemon [_thread_in_native, id=3472] siginfo: ExceptionCode=0xc0000005, reading address 0x00000016 Registers: EAX=0x035c5668, EBX=0x00000002, ECX=0x00000002, EDX=0x00000007 ESP=0x051fef64, EBP=0x77c2c21b, ESI=0x05c1c6c8, EDI=0x035c5668 EIP=0x0583eced, EFLAGS=0x00010297 [snipped]

FYI, I just tried using the web.xml you have listed above and the servlet did load. I removed the DOCTYPE line and it worked. I think you may have something wrong with your slashes possibly. However, the doctype isn't required. P.S. thanks for all the help, your tutorial is excellent!

February 18, 2005: 10:32 am
Angsuman, Everything is working fine now! thanks again!

February 18, 2005: 5:13 am
Dlfiles, Add the following at the end of the web.xml of your web application, before the </web-app> tag. <welcome-file-list> <welcome-file>index.php</welcome-file> </welcome-file-list> You can similarly use other extensions too. The default extensions are jsp, htm and html, defined in conf/web.xml.

February 18, 2005: 4:49 am
Meera, As DlFiles mentioned before you:

I had that “java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send” error for a while and the solution was simply to completely restart the tomcat server.

February 17, 2005: 8:42 pm
hi, Thanks for tip. I no longer have the UnsatisfiedLinkError. But this is the error i get when i try to run any php program inside the fun directory. If i place a php file in the root directory, it is not getting parsed. ( the dialog box offering to save or open the file appears) java.io.IOException: ¸2Bm at net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) [snipped] thanks, Meera.

February 17, 2005: 4:50 pm
First of all, thanks Angsuman for the tutorial and also the people that have replied with tips. ^_^ I had that "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send" error for a while and the solution was simply to completely restart the tomcat server. Now it works fine but every time I go to localhost:8080/fun I can see the index.php as if it didn't auto-recognize the file! Anyone has any idea how to fix this? Note: I know to fix this on an Apache server you would do something like "DirectoryIndex index.html index.html.var index.php " but for Tomcat I have no clue. thanks. Dlfiles

February 17, 2005: 3:50 am
Guto, Check to see the jar file is under the WEB-INF\lib directory as required. Meera, Looks like you are not creating the jar file properly with changes. Please follow the steps exactly. Also please check my comment on 1/2/2005 on the same topic.

February 17, 2005: 2:11 am
Hi, i want to use the SAPI module in php to make a servlet running in tomcat handle a php request. any pointers about how to go about this would be really helpful. thanks a lot. Meera.

February 17, 2005: 2:06 am
Hi Angsuman, Your tutorial has been a great help. but i still have the java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path error. i have read all the comments above and done the necessary changes. when i recreate the jar (jar cvf php5srvlt.jar net/php/*.* ) the class files are not getting created (servlet.class, reflect.class) which were there before. what should i do? any help would be really appreciated. thanks a lot Meera.

February 17, 2005: 1:16 am
I followed the steps but... javax.servlet.ServletException: Wrapper cannot find servlet class net.php.servlet or a class it depends on [snipped] root cause java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: net.php.servlet [snipped] what should i do????

February 16, 2005: 10:15 pm
One simple thought. Please restart the server and see if the error persists.

February 16, 2005: 7:05 pm
To start off, i have read through each and every post on this thread... Still getting the following error when attempting to load my test.php page.

Any help would be most appreciated.

February 14, 2005: 4:52 pm
Works beautifully :) Thank you again! felix

February 14, 2005: 4:33 pm
Felix, Check the PECL modules (instruction 2) you have downloaded. Thanks for the compliment. Angsuman

February 14, 2005: 4:11 pm
I'm also still getting the UnsatisfiedError after checking the *.properties files several times in notepad. also $PATH includes as I can run the command "php" from anywhere. But when trying that I encountered the following error: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library './php_java.dll' - The specified module could not be found. which is true as far as i know as there is no such file in c:\php, but when browsing through the files a found a php_java.jar in c:\php\ext. does anyone know what is wrong in my configuration? Thank you for this tutorial, i appreciate it :) felix

February 10, 2005: 7:32 pm
Thanks Angsuman, it's works. Don't know why :( Yesterday i've restarted Tomc@ and Windows several times but without an effect. (got an unexpected error caused by php5servlet.dll) But today... hmmmm it's works! : \ Are you running your Tomc@ as a service? What about JavaVM 1.5 or 1.4?

February 10, 2005: 2:45 am
Kai, Check the jar file again to see if the changes are properly saved. Check the pointer by ez. EZ, Thanks for the pointer. Dennis, One simple thought. Please restart the server and see if the error persists. Have you checked the suggestions and hints in the comments section by numerous readers?

February 9, 2005: 9:22 pm
Hi, I read the comments. Also the one of Jason. But still the same error message. Maybe I do something wrong when extracting the phpsrvlt.jar. I've opened the file with winrar, made the changes and saved the file without extracting it.

February 9, 2005: 7:15 pm
IMPORTANT: Everybody with an unsatisfied link error double check that you do not have an extra whitespace in the properties files that you change. Servlet.properties and Reflect.properties both have extraneous whitespaces after the names of the dlls. Thanks for the great HOW-TO!

February 9, 2005: 2:07 am
Kai, Read the comment by Jason above. This problem happens due to improper specification of the location of php5servlet.dll in the properties file. Please check the comments above as others have also faced and solved the same issue.

February 8, 2005: 10:48 pm
So, if this is not the error, I don't know what's wrong. I copied php5servlet.dll into c:/php. Than I created the directories and modified the two files. My directory Structure is: webapps/fun --> test.php, WEB-INF WEB-INF --> lib, web.xml lib --> php5srvlt.jar But after restarting Tomcat I get the the following error message. And when I reload the website I get the same message with a different root cause. I read the posts about this problem, but none of the solutions woked for me. 1. Exception description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented it from fulfilling this request. exception javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet execution threw an exception ... [snipped] 2. Exception ... root cause java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send at net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) at net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:190) [snipped]

February 8, 2005: 10:09 pm
Kai, Thanks for pointing out the error of missing backward-slash, It happened when I recently edited the post to add some clarifications. In the process I forgot that the post contains some backword-slashes. Now my blog software unfortunately eats away one backward-slash everytime I edit a post. So I have to manually replace each single backward-slash with double. Unfortunately I forgot to do that in this instance. Thanks again for pointing it out. Let us know how it goes.

February 8, 2005: 10:00 pm
Hallo, what is meant with Point 15 (add c:php ...). I opend SystemEnvironment and added a new systemVariable: name=php and value= c:\php. Is this correct? I ask because I get an error message wehn trying to load the test.php and maybe this is the reason. Greets Error Message: ... root cause java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send at net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) at net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:190 ... kai

February 6, 2005: 3:22 pm
Brian, I haven't faced any server crashing issue. The php5srvlt.jar can be in common.lib. It can also be in www/WEb-INF/lib directory where www is your webapps directory. The second way (as mentioned in the post above) is useful for people who use a shared tomcat instance as provided by their hosting provider. Also it allows you to limit the capability to one web application only.

February 6, 2005: 6:20 am
Also, I've noticed that php only works when i put the php5srvlt.jar in the common/lib directory and it will not work in the webapps/www/lib directory. webapps/www is where my website is located

February 6, 2005: 6:13 am
So I've investigated more and discovered that the proxy error is from my parent server but only because my server is being crashed. I've run the same test on my local machine and recieved the following error: The connection was refused when attempting to contact localhost:8080 This appears to be only because the server is down, and doesn't seem to help much with troubleshooting. But for some reason, on random requests, like i stated in my previous post, the server is being crashed. Any ideas? Thanks again!

February 6, 2005: 3:49 am
There is no proxy proxy running, and the webserver is running on 8080. the weird thing is that i can view my webpage going back and forth from different pages, and it works fine. Then for some reason, i click on a link which i already verified, and it gives me the error message i previously posted. I've done this over and over again, and it seems random where the errors are occuring. Sometimes it on one link, other times it's on others. I tried this using the jsp pages included in the installation and was unable to reproduce the error, thus why i'm concluding that it must be a problem with the PHP installation. Has anyone else tried doing this installation on Tomcat 5.5.4 using JDK 5.0???

February 5, 2005: 10:30 pm
This error happens when a proxy server is accessed like a normal web server. This has nothing to do with php installation AFAIK. Are you accessing the actual tomcat page os are you accessing a proxy server URL instead? Check your port. Tomcat by default runs on 8080. Do you have a proxy server running on your machine?

February 5, 2005: 9:36 am
So I managed to get PHP running on Tomcat 5.5, but im not getting a querky error. After banging on my webserver for only a minute or two, tomcat seems to be crashing and the webpage will display the following error: Proxy Error The proxy server received an invalid response from an upstream server. The proxy server could not handle the request GET /index.php. Reason: Error reading from remote server Has anyone else encountered this error and does anyone have any ideas on how to troubleshoot it? I've checked the Tomcat 5.5 logs and they appear to be ok. After getting this error I have to restart Tomcat to bring it back up again. Any help would me most appreciated. Thanks!

February 1, 2005: 2:59 am
I got it, finally. I was doing mistake in recreating jar file after the changes were made to the .properties files. Thanks anyways, Angsuman. Your article is indeed very helpful. - Mallika

January 28, 2005: 2:33 pm
Meiki, I received email from a number of people who were successful in running it. See the comments above also. Mallika, > java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path Ensure that the name of the dll file is the same name that you specified in both the properties file in the jar which you have modified. Please check the instructions again which I have updated to clarify the above issue. Also see the comments by Jason above. Hope that helps...

January 28, 2005: 9:40 am
Hi, getting PHP to work in Tomcat is exactly what I need. So the above instructions are awsome. But has anybody actually got it to run yet? And do you know if the same instructions should work on other platforms such as Unix or Mac OS X. Or if not do you know how to get it to work on other platforms? Thanks, Meike

January 28, 2005: 6:24 am

Thanks, Mallika

January 27, 2005: 7:04 pm
Thanks Jason for the tip. I didn't realize that people were making the incorrect assumption between the dll file name and the jar file name. I have updated the document to clarify this. > Through some magic that I don’t understand, the library=php5servlet line tells the classes in the Jar file to call out to the native environment and load the native DLL of the same name (which is why it must be on the PATH) No magic here. Just a simple loadLibrary call to load the native dll. JNI is used here for communicating with the php processor.

January 26, 2005: 2:30 pm
hi Nikhil, all -- I have the answer to your problem, which I was encountering also. Just got this working after about an hour of banging on it. The problem is that the reflect.properties and servlet.properties files that we are modifying inside the jar actually point to the DLL file....so the line MUST read library=php5servlet Because the instructions above are unclear, we were all confused about the difference between the names php5srvlt and php5servlet. In reality, the name of the jar file (phpsrvlt.jar) is irrelevant, since Tomcat will automatically load ANY jar file in the apps WEB-INF/lib directory. Through some magic that I don't understand, the library=php5servlet line tells the classes in the Jar file to call out to the native environment and load the native DLL of the same name (which is why it must be on the PATH) Hope this helps - post your response. tx Jason

January 26, 2005: 4:57 am
Hi angsuman, yup, did that, but still the error :(

January 26, 2005: 12:49 am
Nikhli, Please read the tomcat documentation. To create a web app you can either use ROOT (not advisable) or create a directory with any name and create certain directories like WEB-INF under it. Also create a web.xml under WEB-INF.

January 25, 2005: 11:31 pm
hmmm "webapps" seems to be the root now... haha and the 'php5srvlt.jar' is inside the tomcat - 'C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 5.5\webapps\run\WEB-INF\lib' folder.. but still gettin the same error as Brain.... as stated in the above previous post..

ok to unjar -> "jar xfv phpsrvlt.jar" to Recreate the jar file -> "jar cvf php5srvlt.jar net/php/*.* done this and pasted the newly created jar file into c:\php and fun\WEB-INF but apparently my Tomcat root seems to be the webapps\ROOT folder, n not just Webapps.. so I pasted my 'fun' inside this ROOT folder... k but still gettin a blank page :(

January 25, 2005: 7:14 pm
sorry.... nooobie here, How to Rebuild jar file ?

January 25, 2005: 2:30 pm
BTW: Made a small update to the post to clarify that web.xml should be placed under WEB-INF directory. I previously assumed everyone knows that due to previous experience with servlets.

January 25, 2005: 2:20 pm
Brian, Is php5srvlt.jar file under WEB-INF\lib directory? Please restart tomcat and let me know if the problem persists. Angsuman

January 24, 2005: 11:57 pm
I am receiving a similar error to what Sachin was getting and was wondering what the solution to that was?

January 24, 2005: 4:20 pm
No problem! Let me know how it gies Sachin. Do share if you have found something new.

January 24, 2005: 4:15 pm
Sorry for a hasty post previously, that problem is solved. I do have another problem, but I haven't started working on solving it yet. Its about a fairly complex php page not displaying properly. Will post more on that in case I can't solve it. Once again, sorry for the big (and useless) post above. Thanks, Sachin

January 24, 2005: 3:47 pm

Is the php5srvlt.jar supposed to be in the C:/php directory as well, or just the WEB-INF/lib? When I recreate the jar, does it suffice to edit the reflect.properties and servlet.properties files and overwrite the files in the jar or do I need to use the java command to rebuild the jar??? This is what my directory structure looks like: webapps/fun/ test.php WEB-INF/ /lib web.xml php5srvlt.jar Thanks again!

Brian> Hi. I’m using Tomcat 5.5.4 with PHP 5.03. I’ve followed all the instuctions above and got to step 19. When I go to https://localhost:8080/fun/test.php I get a blank screen. When I look at the source, it contains It appears that Tomcat is loading the test.php file but the php script is not running. I’ve tried this with and without the extra spaces in reflect.properties and servlet.properties and get the same behavior. Thanks for your help! Brian, I think you missed step 10. That creates the mapping between .php file and the servlet. Please check and let me know.

Lukas> Now I’m wondering if there’s a way to call Java code within the servlet’s JVM from the actual PHP code. To be more specific: I need to create Java singleton in PHP code and share this singleton within all server PHP-requests (I tried PHP - Java integration using PHP object Java [ie. ] but PHP interpretter was starting extra JVM for each single page it interpretted). Any ideas? Thanks… There is a simple way and there is a complicated way :) The simple way would be to write a jsp page which contains the desired code and load the page from php code.

Finally got it working! The problem was in my classpath setup. I got two different php_java.jar files accessible through classpath and Java was all confused with it (that's why I was still getting this java.lang.IllegalAccessError)... Now I'm wondering if there's a way to call Java code within the servlet's JVM from the actual PHP code. To be more specific: I need to create Java singleton in PHP code and share this singleton within all server PHP-requests (I tried PHP - Java integration using PHP object Java [ie. < ?php $i = new Java('java.lang.Integer'); ?>] but PHP interpretter was starting extra JVM for each single page it interpretted). Any ideas? Thanks...

Hi. That last message was supposed to say "it contains phpinfo();" but the website didn't like the LT/GT ?

Lukas> The only difference was at step 11 ("Extract php5srvlt.jar and extract/unjar (jar xvf …) it under c:"). Extract from where? I suppose it’s located in PECL zip file. There was only “phpsrvlt.jar” so I used that instead. Everything else was fine. Angsuman> I meant extract the contents of phpsrvlt.jar. The idea is to change the content of the two properties file within the jar file. And yes you will get the jar file in pecl.zip. Lukas>Now step 19: on the first page request from the browser I get following error Angsuman> Please make the changes and let me know if you still face the problem.

Hi. I followed all the steps with no problem. The only difference was at step 11 ("Extract php5srvlt.jar and extract/unjar (jar xvf …) it under c:"). Extract from where? I suppose it's located in PECL zip file. There was only "phpsrvlt.jar" so I used that instead. Everything else was fine. Now step 19: on the first page request from the browser I get following error: java.lang.IllegalAccessError: tried to access method net.php.reflect.loadLibrary(Ljava/lang/String;)V from class net.php.servlet net.php.servlet.init(servlet.java:157) [snipped] ...every other page request results in this error: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:190) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:214) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802) I'm pretty sure I did all your steps, so where could be the problem?! I'm using Tomcat 5.5.4 and PHP 5.0.3... Thanks in advance for your help.

Bill> the php5 version of phpsrvlt.jar is not working correctly because of a mistake in net\php\reflect.properties and net\php\servlet.properties. There’s one space after the library name that should be stripped. After doing this i’ve no problem using php5 out of an java appserver. The problem has been addressed in steps 11-13 above (quoted below for convenience): 11. Extract php5srvlt.jar and extract/unjar (jar xvf …) it under c:\ 12. Modify both the files reflect.properties and servlet.properties to change the line library=phpsrvlt to library=php5servlet and save them 13. Re-create the jar file

I don't understand Spanish. However I believe the content of the two comments above are the same - UnsatisfiedLinkError. As the jar file is placed under web-inf/lib directory realoding the web container causes the dll to be reloaded again which fails. The simplest solution is to restart the server whenever there is a need to restart the web conatiner. However to eliminate the problem totally you can place the jar under common/lib directory. That way it is loaded the tomcat classloader and is not restarted when the web container is restarted. Let me know if that helps.

i m getting this error javax.servlet.ServletException: Servlet execution threw an exception root cause java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: send net.php.servlet.send(Native Method) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:190) net.php.servlet.service(servlet.java:214) javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet.service(HttpServlet.java:802)

The system was stable so long you didn't have to reload the web application. In the given installation scenario the jar which loaded the native dll is loaded from the web application context. So re-loading web application causes problem. It is better to restart Tomcat. However I presume that will be gone if the jar is moved to common/lib.

I tried this b4 (https://analogueboy.blogspot.com/#106959689637832829) but it wasn't very reliable. I tried to run phpbb under tomcat and it repeated failed. Have you found the process to be more reliable under php5?
