    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. ] 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.

    Brian,
    I think you missed step 10. That creates the mapping between .php file and the servlet.

    Please check and let me know.

    Angsuman> I am not sure I understand. You need to unjar the files, modify them and then rebuild the jar and deploy the new jar file. Verify it by checking that the files have actually been changed and that the path information of the files is identical to the original. The steps given, if followed to the dot should ensure that.

    Specifically web.xml should be under WEB-INF directory and not under lib.

    Hope that clarifies…

    Is php5srvlt.jar file under WEB-INF\lib directory?

    Please restart tomcat and let me know if the problem persists.

22. Angsuman Chakraborty Says:
    January 25th, 2005 at 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.

24. Nikhil Says:
    January 25th, 2005 at 7:53 pm

    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

25. Nikhil Says:
    January 25th, 2005 at 7:58 pm

    oh.. and one more thing… my root already seems to have a WEB-INF with a lib n web.xml within it…

    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.

30. Jason Says:
    January 26th, 2005 at 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

31. Angsuman Chakraborty Says:
    January 27th, 2005 at 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.

    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,

    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…

    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!

37. Angsuman Chakraborty Says:
    February 5th, 2005 at 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?

38. Brian Says:
    February 6th, 2005 at 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???

39. Brian Says:
    February 6th, 2005 at 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!

40. Brian Says:
    February 6th, 2005 at 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

41. Angsuman Chakraborty Says:
    February 6th, 2005 at 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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

46. ez Says:
    February 9th, 2005 at 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!

47. Kai Says:
    February 9th, 2005 at 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.

    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?

    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?

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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)

63. Angsuman Chakraborty Says:

    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.

    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!

    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.

    Starting service Tomcat-Standalone
    Apache Tomcat/4.0.6

    Move the php5srvlt.jar file out of the tomcat directory and put it in the Java jre/lib/ext directory

    @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.

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?

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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…

91. Angsuman Says:
    May 23rd, 2005 at 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.

92. orbknives Says:
    May 23rd, 2005 at 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…

93. Angsuman Says:
    May 23rd, 2005 at 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.

    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??????

96. Angsuman Says:
    May 24th, 2005 at 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?

97. orbknives Says:
    May 24th, 2005 at 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!!!!!

    @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.

100. Rick Says:

     Have restarted Tomcat (actually using JBoss with embedded Tomcat) several times to no avail.

101. Angsuman Says:
     May 25th, 2005 at 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?

     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.

103. Angsuman Says:
     May 26th, 2005 at 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…

104. Anuj Says:
     May 26th, 2005 at 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

     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

107. xcell Says:
     May 30th, 2005 at 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…

108. Angsuman Says:
     May 30th, 2005 at 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.

     But, after reboot PC(Win2Kserver) , it works fine.
     Maybe rebooting tomcat is not enough to

     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!

118. Angsuman Says:
     June 27th, 2005 at 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.

119. Felix Says:
     June 28th, 2005 at 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.

120. Angsuman Says:
     June 28th, 2005 at 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.

     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

     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..

     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.

     … 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.

     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 http:/www.dll-files.com-. Now EVERYTHING is running smoothly.

     I hope that this post helps you guys all!

     Enjoy

     @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.

     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.

     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.

     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?

     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?

     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.

     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

     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.

     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?

     I am yet another failure with the
     java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no php5servlet in java.library.path

     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:

     Module compiled with module API=20040412
     PHP compiled with module API=20041030

     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!!!

     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.

173. Joel Says:

     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.

174. Joel Says:
     January 31st, 2006 at 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.

175. Steve-e-b Says:
     February 23rd, 2006 at 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.

176. Steve-e-b Says:
     February 23rd, 2006 at 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?

177. Dinesh Says:
     February 28th, 2006 at 1:35 pm

     HI Angsuman, It worked for PHP5.1.2 and TOMCAT 5.0.28 with out any hicups. Thanks for the Article.

178. Chepech Says:
     March 8th, 2006 at 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.

     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

     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=0×486b91e4, 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

     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.
