Faster PHP server CSI package

Code:

This PHP script has been encoded with Turck MMcache, to run in you must install Turck MMcache or Turck Loader

Is this another module that needs to be compiled into lighttpd, or a config somewhere?

Here is what I did to run MPDJB with the CSI lighttpd package.

Is there any way to get GD library working for PHP?

[bellissimo]

According to the first post, GD is included.

Excellent work, thank you for putting this together.

Hi,

Two questions really :
- Can this be used with the C200 ?
- Can/is mod_rewrite (be) included ?
-and even mod_ssl ?

thx

EDIT 06-10-2009: I want to create a single page with holds a link to all services that are available on the pch.
With mod_rewrite i can then send the browser to the right service, e.g. nzbget on 8066, when someone clicks this link.
Mod_rewrite can send requests for say: nzb.mydomain.com to localhost:8066 etc.
(This: mydomain.com/nzb to localhost:8066 is also possible but more errorprone of course)
When i then use port-forwarding to route all traffic on port 80 on the wan side of the router to the port of the lighttpd server, i can then access all running services trough one port.
All i need is a domain.

And lighttpd with mod_rewrite(and mod_proxy ofcourse....) and possible mod_ssl.
If one makes the virtual host section so that it loads them from disk one could even load automatically all vhosts files for every service on the pch.
One could make this an option for every package in the CSI package that has a webserver on board: let them place a file with predefined vhosts format in the webserver/vhost dir.
And then when the server starts it would autmatically load all vhost mappings for every webserver.
One could even make a bit of code that on startup would parse the vhost files so that you could create an index.htm file.
You can make use of the commenting possibilties in the vhosts file.
(Thhis coding section is beyond me really unfortunately; i know squat about php or unix).

No. I am not using fread, I am using stat only. But I am getting the filesize from shell_exec and dividing inside php. So, it is not handling the integer that big. But as pbman stated, if I handle the size by dividing the shell_exec output directly instead of storing into a variable, probably it should work.

I had the same issue and instead of using an integer (which PHP tried to do by default) I used a float.

Anything beyond 2^31 (which is 2 gigabytes in bytes) should normally cause an integer overflow which should cause the variable to be interpreted as a float. For some reason this wasn't working for me, so I simply made all filesize variables as floats.

PHP Code:

/*  Example which didn't work */
$bytes = getmyfilesize('somefile.mkv') //somefile.mkv is greater than 2 GB
echo $bytes // only shows 2^31 -- and is of type integer

/* Using (float) variables works. */
(float)$bytes = getmyfilesize('somefile.mkv')
echo $bytes // properly shows value of somefile.mkv and is a float 


This is in the PHP Manual on the Integer page... but it looks like the manual is down right now. Google's cached version should still be up though.

Does anyone know what user the php files are run as? per the output of the 'top' command, it's running as 'nobody'
Just curious what kind of limitations we will run into coding PHP on the PCH. For example, certain commands don't work:

PHP Code:

unset($output);
exec("whoami",$output);
print_r($output); //I was at least hoping for 'nobody'

unset($output);
exec("crontab -l", $output);
print_r($output); //nothing :(

The php function scandir in lighttpd does not recognize the files which is bigger than 2GB. Is there is any compile settings you missed out?

[PhunkyBob]

Hi !

I tried to install "lightttpd' via CSI : it fails.
I tried to install in command line : it fails again.

Now, I can't use anything using the 9999 port.

Cf. http://www.networkedmediatank.com/showth...?tid=29806


After using NMT CSI, my box is very very slow, and all my services are "starting".
If I delete the "/share/Apps/AppInit" directory, things are better, but the "torrent" and "usenet" services are still "starting" and my 9999 port is no more available.


You seems to know well how this "configuration things" works.
Could you help me ?

[vaidyasr]

@journey4712
Can you please let me know whether the lighttpd compiled with -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS?. Because I can't interpret the >2GB files with lighttpd. I found the below solution in php.net

Code:

If you want to open large files (more than 2GB) that's what I did and it works: you should recompile your php with the CFLAGS="-D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64"

Hey journey4712,

First, thanks for all of the hours you have put in to get lighttpd up and running.

I have run into an issue when accessing more than one php file simultaneously. Adjusting max-procs to "2" cures the problem but then fastcgi sometimes fails to load.

************* from lighttpd.conf *****************

fastcgi.server = (
".php" => ((
"bin-path" => instdir+"bin/php-cgi -c "+instdir+"etc/",
"socket" => instdir+"/run/php.socket",
"min-procs" => 1,
"max-procs" => 2,
))

************* from error.log **************

2009-10-20 15:57:09: (log.c.172) server started

Am I making any obvious mistakes?

Here is how I fixed this problem.

fastcgi.server = (
".php" => ((

))

Hi guys,

Recently I have installed "lighttpd v1.4.23-nmt2" on my A-110 Popcorn but regarding the options in the php installed with this server I can't receive SOAP messages with this

Please, ... do you know how can I fix this ? ... perhaps I'd need to install another WebServer or I could be possible to enable the SOAP extension for the current php installed in some way ?

Regards,
Keko.

Out of curiosity, why does the configuration (in phpinfo()) show:

Code:

'--with-jpeg-dir=/home/xbmc/cross/jpeg-6b/DEST/' '--with-freetype-dir=/home/xbmc/cross/freetype-2.3.5.orig/freetype-2.3.5/DEST/'

Full snippet:
