PHP and Lighttpd for Android

By the way I did NOT change any config files and used 5.3.8 + lighty 1.4.19.

Kernel is 3.0.15-i9100-XWLP7-CL340913

It is pure in the php kernel, it is probably not a lighttpd issue.
I reproduce it also without lighttpd being loaded.
when I run :
[code]
cat var/www/phpinfo.php | php
[/code]
it worrks fine (at least in a terminal.

But

[code]
php var/www/phpinfo.php
[/code]

issues the ‘No input file specified’ error.
Strange. the 5.4.2 has the same issue. Seems that piping / redirecting is different in the 3.0 / ICS 4 kernel.

Hi,

Maybe it’s easier to communicate via email you should have my email address.
I tried it:

[code]
strace -f php var/www/phpinfo.php > log.txt 2>&1
[/code]
did issue an error message that php does not exist.
So I tried:
[code]
localhost:systemfolder # strace -f xbin/php-cgi var/www/phpinfo.php
strace: xbin/php-cgi: command not found
localhost:systemfolder # ls -al xbin/php-cgi
-rwxr–r– 1 root root 10806533 Sep 22 2011 xbin/php-cgi
localhost:systemfolder #
[/code]
Strange that it issues ‘command not found’.
I have an official Samsung ROM (XWLP7) so no custom ROMs..

BTW if you have an S2 (or another Android phone for which ICS is officially released) you can just install ‘Mobile Odin Pro’ ($2), download an official ICS 4.0 kernel from http://www.sammobile.com. Mobile Odin Pro flashes any kernel (also an official) on the device itself and roots it on the fly. I did this and after 4.0.3 was flashed, the root was retained.

test on SAMSUNG Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0.4 stock ROM

when I run :

cat var/www/phpinfo.php | php

it worrks fine (at least in a terminal.

But

php var/www/phpinfo.php

issues the ‘No input file specified’ error.

plz fix it

Btw viulian, couldn’t you use emulator rather than buy ICS phone? *just saying

Same thing with:

Linux localhost 2.6.35.7-G70XXKPF-CL562492 #r14 PREEMPT Sun Mar 11 16:16:26 CLST 2012 armv7l GNU/Linux

Android 2.3.6

Hi,could you compile it with gnu readline module,or the cli mode?I use it for script in terminal ,It ‘s very useful.thank you
I come from China,My English is not very.

Hi, I found some bug in “php-5.4.2_lighttpd_1.4.29_armv5.tar.gz”
It’s problem with ICONV
First example from php documentation ( http://php.net/manual/en/function.iconv.php )
works correcty on my localhost PHP 5.4.4, but on Android it failed with //TRANSLIT and //IGNORE flags. It write nothing.
It can be PHP bug: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=61484 but I’m not sure.

Is there some chance to fix it? Please, ICONV is important for non-english countries.

It seems like sqlite is not working with PHP 5.4.2. I tried with PHP sqlite manager as well.
It gives Fatal error: Call to undefined function sqlite_open()

Here is the code for sqlite:-

////////////////////////////
$dbhandle = sqlite_open(‘test.db’, 0666, $error);
if (!$dbhandle) die ($error);
$stm = “CREATE TABLE Friends(Id integer PRIMARY KEY,” . “Name text UNIQUE NOT NULL, Sex text CHECK(Sex IN (‘M’, ‘F’)))”;
$ok = sqlite_exec($dbhandle, $stm, $error);
/////////////////////////////

example code:

#!/system/bin/php

I cross-compile php for android can not open the Internet domain name can help it?
error info:
Warning: file_get_contents(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /mnt/sdcard/ROOT/var/www/special.php on line 2

Warning: file_get_contents(http://php.net): failed to open stream: php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: Name or service not known in /mnt/sdcard/ROOT/var/www/special.php on line 2

@viulian
I arm debian linux gcc compiler in qumu virtual machine used.

@phpdeveloper
I compiled php can open ip, but can not open the domain name.

@aite.me:
> I compiled php can open ip, but can not open the domain name.
When file_get_contents() does open an IP address but not a domain name then there is a problem in resolving domains.
Did you try it from the prompt ? If yes, try e.g. ping google.com .
And did you try a website
[code]
<?php
$content = file_get_contents("http://www.google.com&quot;);
echo "<pre>".htmlentities($content); "</pre>";
?>
[/code]
And run the website from the browser localhost/path/yourfile.php .

@aite.me , @viulian:

Having a look at this function might help ? Gethostbyname() is IMHO the workhorse behind domain based hostnames in file_get_contents() with a URL.

http://nl.php.net/%20gethostbyname

@aite.me: So you got it working ?

@phpdeveloper
No, just do dns problem.

Some (strange) good news: Using the Viulian version of PHP 5.4.2 and setting the document root of lighttpd in the /sdcard tree results in that the dir() function *does* work.
[code]
server.document-root = "/data/systemfolder/var/www"
# dir() not working

server.document-root = "/sdcard/www"
# dir working

[/code]

I always use the first version. So it seems that the dir() function cannot handle ext4 file systems (native to Android 4.x) and no FAT systems when the document root is symlinked as it was in my case.
Now I changed my document root and the dir() is working ! But still an issue on ext4.

I replied you via pm on xda.
