PHP samples dont work

Project: WSO2 WSF/PHP

Hi,

I have installed the WSF/PHP and seem to have a lot of problems getting it to work.

The latest errors I get is when I run the samples. Each sample program gives me an error, for example the ECHO sample gives me the error:

error creating service in C:\\Program Files\\Apache224\\htdocs\\samples\\echo_service.php

In the apache error log I get:

[error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Fatal error: WSService::__construct() [<a href='function.WSService---construct'>function.WSService---construct</a>]: error creating service in C:\\Program Files\\Apache224\\htdocs\\samples\\echo_service.php on line 39, referer: http://localhost/samples/

I am loosing the will to use the WSF :-(( . Has anybody got this framework working for PHP. BTW, I am currently running it under windows XP env, but plan to port to the Ubuntu 7.0.4.

cheers

Use Apache 2.0

Submitted by Emanuele.Aliberti on April 20, 2008 - 23:41.

Use Apache 2.0. It seems that WSF/PHP 1.2.1 can't run under Apache 2.2 at present. I did the same mistake and discovered it was not compatible after a few hours.

My experience is wsf/php is working with apache 2.2.* version. Right now my apache version is printed as 'Apache/2.3.0-dev', and there it works without problem.

Anyway the problem (service creation failed) can be happen due to configuration problems. Your WSClient is created fine, that mean it is loaded wsf module correctly. But WSService fails because wsf is not loaded by apache. Can you recheck which php.ini file is loaded by apache. And check is that the same one you load the wsf extension. You can use the phpinfo() function to get an idea on this.

Thanks

Dimuthu,

Here are some information from the phpinfo():

When I ran the echo service and client, this is the error I get in the error.log

[Mon Apr 21 23:44:58 2008] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] PHP Fatal error: WSService::__construct() [<a href='function.WSService---construct'>function.WSService---construct</a>]: error creating service in C:\\Program Files\\Apache224\\htdocs\\samples\\echo_service.php on line 39, referer: http://localhost/samples/

And on the client page I get this error:

Message = ws client create failed

Having looked at it, it seems that everything is loading and I dont seem to get an error ( I mean I cant see an error that a module has failed loading). Am I missing something?

cheers

Change wsf.rm_db_dir to valid windows directory

Submitted by dimuthuc on April 21, 2008 - 19:36.

Hi,

Can you retry setting the wsf.rm_db_dir to a valid windows directory. This can lead to failure in creating WSClient and WSService

Thanks

Dimuthu

Dimuthu, WIll do , but

Submitted by tomcat on April 23, 2008 - 02:26.

Dimuthu,

WIll do , but can not find when this needs to be changed. I checked the php.ini file and http.conf and the reference is not in either of them. Do you know where this is?

cheers

Dimuthu OK I added a new

Submitted by tomcat on April 23, 2008 - 02:35.

Dimuthu

OK I added a new line and change the directory to

wsf.rm_db_dir="C:\PhpTools\wso2-wsf-120-win32"

and still got the same error. I even tried this

wsf.rm_db_dir="C:\PhpTools\wso2-wsf-120-win32\"

but no joy. I am getting the same error

Any ideas what is happening?

Re: PHP Samples do not work

Submitted by nandika on April 24, 2008 - 07:20.

Hi,

The error you are getting usually happens when the wsf.home directory setting is incorrect. Please verify that the directory you have specified is correct for wsf.home entry. Also make sure that your setting is refering to the correct version of wsf/php. For example if you have copied 1.2.1 wsf.dll to php extensions directory and your wsf.home setting refers to wso2-wsf-php-1.2.0-bin\wsf_c directory it wont work.

Works with WSDL

Submitted by bitGrok on April 24, 2008 - 07:57.

Hmm...

Nandika, my wsf.home directory settting is correct.

However, just to try something different, I set up the client to use WSDL (I obtained the wsdl file from my .Net client), and it now works.

Thanks for everyone's quick respose.

Still doesnt work

Submitted by tomcat on April 25, 2008 - 07:45.

I am using version 1.2.0 and the home path is the one recommended in the installation:

[wsf]

wsf.home="C:\PhpTools\wso2-wsf-120-win32\wsf_c"

wsf.log_path="C:\PhpTools\wso2-wsf-120-win32\wsf_c\logs"

wsf.rm_db_dir="C:\PhpTools\wso2-wsf-120-win32"

wsf.log_level=4

extension=wsf.dll

extension_dir = "D:\php525\ext"

But it still doesnt work. I wonder if I should move to version 1.2.1?

Cheers

Apache error log

Submitted by dimuthuc on April 25, 2008 - 09:11.

Hi,

Can you check the apache error_log. That may tell some information about the issue. And if possible please try with the 1.2.1 release, since it has fixed some problems related to installation.

Thanks

Dimuthu

Re: PHP Samples does not work

Submitted by nandika on April 26, 2008 - 06:43.

Hi,

I guess you have added both wso2-wsf-php1.2.1\wsf_c\lib and wso2-wsf-php-1.2.0\wsf_c\lib to your Path environment variable and this should be the reason why the samples are not working. You may only have one of the above in your path and I recommend 1.2.1 release since it has improvement over the 1.2.0 release.

Problems are still there in version 1.2.1

Submitted by tomcat on April 27, 2008 - 07:23.

OK, I installed version 1.2.1, followed the installation instructions and I am still getting problems.

I ran both Echo and Math samples and I get the following errors:

For Echo sample:

WSService::reply(wsf.php) [<a href='function.WSService-reply'>function.WSService-reply</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\\Program Files\\Apache224\\htdocs\\samples\\echo_service.php on line 41, referer: http://localhost/samples/

And for the Math sample:

WSService::reply(wsf.php) [<a href='function.WSService-reply'>function.WSService-reply</a>]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\\Program Files\\Apache224\\htdocs\\samples\\math_service.php on line 105, referer: http://localhost/samples/

They booth seem to point ot the similar functions:

$service->reply($requestPayloadString);

$svr->reply($reqPayloadString);

which are called after the service is created.

BTW, I first start the service and then run the client.

Any ideas what is happening???

cheers

Hi,

Submitted by dushshantha on April 28, 2008 - 01:54.

Hi,

Its really strange that your error message mensions about wsf.php when you try to run echo client. To call $service->reply() engine doesn't need wsf.php file.

BTW, can you check whether you have correctly set the include_path in php.ini file to <WSF/PHP install path>\scripts folder?? If you are getting a problem complaining wsf.php missing, wrong include path might be the problem.

I got something working !!!

Dushshantha

I think you were right. I fixed the "include_path" and things started moving. I ran the Math sample and it worked, however I am not sure what is going on because when I run the first sample i.e.the echo client and server, on the clinet page I get:

Response = <ns1:echoString xmlns:ns1="http://php.axis2.org/samples"><text>Hello World!</text></ns1:echoString>

and on the server pgae, i get

This XML file does not appear to have any style information associated with it. The document tree is shown below.

<definitions targetNamespace="http://www.wso2.org/php">

<types> .....

.......

does this mean that the echo client is working?

BTW, I still get a lot of "Undefined variable: PHP_SELF" and "Undefined index" as I run these examples.

I am not really sure when the samples have worked as I dont know what the output is supposed to be!!

cheers

Hi, If you got Response =

Submitted by dimuthuc on April 28, 2008 - 09:54.

Hi,

If you got

Response = <ns1:echoString xmlns:ns1="http://php.axis2.org/samples"><text>Hello World!</text></ns1:echoString>

That mean you have recieved the response message correctly. So i think you got it working.

The server page, were you trying to acess wsdl by using the postfix "?wsdl". that mean something like "http://localhost/samples/echo_service.php?wsdl". If that so you will have the XML you mention.

And all the warning are also should be to the accessing WSDL.

Thanks
