Setting up PHP in Cherokee 0.9.1

Hi,

I've just installed Cherokee and I'm now trying to setup PHP on it. I've found
the documentation part of the cookbook that explains how to set PHP, and it
seems that it should be configured by default. I think it is, because I see the
'php' information source there.

I have installed the php5-cgi package (running Debian stable), but no
/tmp/cherokee-php.sock file is created after restarting the server.

If anyone can guide me through the process I'll really appreciate it :)

Thanks in advance,

Hi Marcos.
It should work out of the box. I'm not sure why it isn't.
First check that your installed php-cgi supports fastcgi. The *fcgi* part must appear.

taher[at]borg:~/src/cherokee/trunk/doc$ php-cgi -v
PHP 5.2.4-2ubuntu5.3 with Suhosin-Patch 0.9.6.2 (cgi-fcgi) (built: Jul 23 2008 06:38:29)

If the problem is unix-socket related, żcould you try setting it up so that it uses a host:port?
Simply change your 'php' information source, where it says
Connection:
/tmp/cherokee-php.sock --> localhost:1234

Interpreter:
/usr/bin/php-cgi -b /tmp/cherokee-php.sock ---> /usr/bin/php-cgi -b 1234

Let's see if we can crack this one ;)

Regards

I've already checked it and I installed php5-cgi btw, but here it goes:

marcos[at]kwak:~$ php-cgi -v
PHP 5.2.0-8+etch11 (cgi-fcgi) (built: May 10 2008 10:41:01)
Copyright (c) 1997-2006 The PHP Group

I also changed it to what you suggest, but still no luck :(

I think it can be something related to my cherokee build not supporting the
fcgi module (or at least, it's not loaded...). So maybe I can change my
question to: how do I check for the modules that are loaded by cherokee? :)

Thanks,

You can check the built-in modules by executing "cherokee -i".

Additionally, you can see whether the 'fcgi' modules has been compiled
by checking the plug-ins directory (it's usually either /usr/lib/
cherokee or /usr/local/lib/cherokee); there ought to be a file named
libplugin_fcgi.so.

Ok, no built-in modules, ... let's check the others ..

kwak:/usr/local/lib/cherokee# ls *fcgi*
libplugin_fcgi.a libplugin_fcgi.la libplugin_fcgi.so

It seems that the module is there ...

Any other thing I should check? I assume the modules are auto-loaded when
needed or at server startup...

Thanks,
