where is php_java.jar ?

Anon

I seem to have hit a snag of totally stupid proportions.

I can not find php_java.jar when trying to install php with java support.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I'll never get it!!!!!

If you are running linux, php_java.jar should be located in php_source_dir/ext/java/ if you compiled it with java support ( something like /usr/src/php-4.0.4pl1/ext/java ). If you are running winblows. I couldn't tell ya as I refuse to pay for software that should be free. I generally make a dir under /usr/local/lib called php_(compileDate), and move all of my modules there, but that is just a personnal preference. In your php.ini file you want something like

[Java]
java.home=/usr/local/jdk1.2.2
java.class.path=/usr/local/lib/php_01012001/php_java.jar
java.library.path=/usr/local/lib/php_01012001
extension=libphp_java.so

** Don't forget to set your extension_dir to the directory that you store your modules in.

So far the java support seems pretty shacky, and it doesn't seem like anyone is maintaining the module. I wish you more luck than I have had.

Don,

If you are not on Win32 you'll have to build ext/java yourself by specifying --with-java on the configure statement. Once it gets built, the jar file should automatically get copied to the lib directory off your --prefix directory (or /usr/local/lib if you didn't specify --prefix).

If you are on Win32, download the appropriate binaries from www.php4win.de. The zip file should contain all you need including the jar file(s). Otherwise, you'll have to build it yourself using MS Visual Studio.
