Title: PHP and NetTalk
Post by: Djordje Radovanovic on January 31, 2012, 05:42:21 AM

I learned from one of webinars that it is possible to run PHP scripts from nettalk server. It was pointed into StringTheory and CryptoNite as a must for this features but I do not know what am I need to install on server PC that make it possible.
Is there some instructions in a written form or maybe some tutorial?

Best regards,

Djordje Radovanovic

You need OddJob from Capesoft. Not sure if you also need string theory as it used to be part of oddjob. I don't think you need cryptonite. Just try to run the PHP example that ships with NTW.

You need OddJob and StringTheory in order to make the PHP stuff work. Not Cryptonite.

the PHP notes are in the doc here;
http://www.capesoft.com/docs/NetTalk5/NetTalkWebBasic.htm#PHP (http://www.capesoft.com/docs/NetTalk5/NetTalkWebBasic.htm#PHP)

(Originally OddJob included StringTheory, but that is no longer the case, so the current doc needs updating to refer to them both.)

I bought all products that I need, installed PHP for windows and tried an example PHP. Than I received security warning from PHP that is not allowed to access page directly. Google a bit and found solution. So far so good.
But when I tried my example now I receive "No input file specified. "

Can you point me in a right direction?

Hi Djordje,
It sounds like you found the "php" folder that was a subdirectory of the PHP example?
It seems to have been missing from recent builds (Rene pointed that out to me). If you haven't got that then I guess that's something to fix - but it sounds like you do have it.

does the PHP example work?

cheers
Bruce

I am using PHP example from NetTalk Example directory. I copy example to higher level folder because I was not sure was it space character or bracket characters. I remove from folder name (58) and now it is straight PHP.
When I ran it for the first time server wrote that could not execute PHP-CGI.EXE and it was pointed into my folder and subfolder PHP so I copied PHP installation into my example folder. After that server did not complain about PHP-CGI.EXE

Then goes my story from previous post about PHP warning and after I fix that in PHP.INI I receive "No input file specified" from PHP example.

To be short  ;). Everything I wrote was about example PHP(58)

Best regards,

Ok, I understand.

chances are your PHP install is pretty close to what we ship - but it might not be exactly the same. I've corrected the 6.18 install so the
PHP (58) folder, has a sub folder called PHP

(You're also right in removing the (58) from the name - so the folder becomes \php\php
Fortunately this isn't confusing....)

cheers
