Apache/Verisign payflow pro functions.

toysrfive

I have been reading thread after thread of problems integrating SSL/Apache and Verisign. Please let me know if anyone has been successful implementing the payflow pro functions with PHP 4.0.6/Apache 1.3.19 in a production environment. Also, any good points of reference etc...would be greatly appreciated🙂

After downloading the SDK from Verisign and reading the PHP Manual, and building PHP --with-pfpro etc....I am getting frustrated quickly.

My system specs are:
RH 7.2
Apache 1.3.19 built from source
PHP 4.0.6:
configured as:
./configure --with-apxs=/usr/sbin/apxs --with-sybase=/usr/local/freetds --with-calendar --with-pfpro=/usr/local/linux

I can build PHP fine, but Apache is not starting after recompiling PHP. Originally, it gave me the error and that it could not find libpfpro.so, so I ran ./ldconfig and the error was gone, but apache still will not start.

Anyway, suggestions etc...are appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Carl

I'm having the same problem...

here's what i've been doing, and getting nowhere fast.

the system already had:
OpenSSL 0.9.6a
PHP 4.1.1
Apache 1.3.20
mysql 3.23.38

so to install verisign i:

recompiled PHP
'./configure'
'--with-apache=../apache_1.3.20'
'--with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql'
'--with-pfpro=/usr/local/payflowpro_sdk/linux'
'--enable-memory-limit=yes'
'--enable-debug=no'
'--enable-track-vars'

recompiled apache
SSL_BASE=/usr/local/openssl
./configure
--prefix=/usr/local/apache_ssl
--enable-module=ssl
--activate-module=src/modules/php4/libphp4.a
--enable-module=php4
--enable-module=auth_dbm
--enable-module=auth_db

everything seems to recompile fine. but when I try to restart, things just don't work. no seg faults. just an inactive cursor. a real bummer. when i type apachectl startssl, the screen prints out what it should, except for the password prompt. and then it hangs. help please, this is a production server and well... i have to work on it during the wee hours. sucks. :\

Dan,

Wish I had answers, but I dont as of yet.

I emailed Verisign with some questions, and the ir response was they "do not support php" which
did not surprise me having read other threads....mentioning the same thing.

Keep me up to date on what your progress is...and I will do the same.

More coming....

Thanks,

Carl

Well, I just got off the phone with Verisign. I told him my plight and he gave me a tip on how to tweak out my config script.

So I dunno who you talked to, but this guy knew what he was talking about. Call him if you want.

Andy. ext 3626 (888)847-2747

the tweak is here...

--with-pfpro=shared,/path/path/path/

try that. I would do it now myself, but the server is a production server, so I have to wait till around 1 to 2 AM central to work on it. Ugh. what a horrible existance.

Also, he said that you should grab the latest SDK off the site. Apparently they had a version with a bug in it that conflicted with OpenSSL. So beaware of that. But I don't know if that was a while back or what.

Yeah, give Andy a call, he knew what he was talking about.

Good luck and keep me posted.
