Topic: Help : php5-cgi Magento

[beckynet]

Help, I want to install Magento (www.magentocommerce.com) but magento need php 5.2 or greater.
Magento provide a php5-cgi binary file that we must put in ibay/xxx/cgi-bin/
in the .htaccess of the magento ibay /xxx/html/

.htaccess

Code: [Select]

But it does not work.

Should I do something else in php.ini or httpd.conf ?

Thanks a lot for your help

Try using the PHP5-CGI contrib (http://wiki.contribs.org/PHP5). Does this help?

Thanks for your respons.

Your way is good, but not enought.

Now I receive this, when I do a magento-check :

Your server does not meet the following requirements in order to install Magento.
The following requirements failed, please contact your hosting provider in order to receive assistance with meeting the system requirements for Magento:

You are missing the mcrypt extension
You are missing the pdo_mysql extension

The following requirements were successfully met:
You have PHP 5.2.0 (or greater)
Safe Mode is off
You have MySQL 4.1.20 (or greater)
You have the curl extension
You have the dom extension
You have the gd extension
You have the hash extension
You have the iconv extension
You have the pcre extension
You have the pdo extension
You have the simplexml extension

Where can I find mcrypt and pdo_mysql extension ?

Thanks a Lot

These are extensions that (as far as I can gather) are outside the standard PHP distribution. I think you're going to be out of luck with PHP as a CGI.

If you are really keen, you might try the full upgrade method instead, but note that this may make it hard to update SME Server in the future.

Hello I've find a solution here !

http://www.magentocommerce.com/knowledge-base/entry/installing-magento-on-a-php4-server


I've installed your package, and the I've replaced your php-cgi with this one renamed as php-cgi

http://www.magentocommerce.com/support/php5cgi/php5-cgi

This is a complete solution for php5.

This solution is not very clean, but runing.

Why you not only use this single package to replace all the other (php5-cgi-mysql, php5-cgi-pear, php5-cgi-...) to produce a new rpm ?

Thanks for your contribs

missing the pdo_mysql extension

I'm having the same problem with egroupware 1.6.

php5-cgi is fine but the pdo_mysql belongs to mysql5. There would be a file for that (ie: /etc/php5/php.d/pdo_mysql.ini) enabling extension=pdo_mysql.so

An entry like "extension=pdo_mysql.so" in /etc/php5/php.ini makes some errors bypassed but of course the logs still show the missing extension error.

Copying pdo_mysql.so from an other sme7 upgraded to php5/mysql5 was not enough!!

[beckynet]

Try This :

Follow PHP5-CGI contrib http://wiki.contribs.org/PHP5

Go to console

Code: [Select]

cd /usr/bin/php5/

wget http://www.magentocommerce.com/support/php5cgi/php5-cgi

mv php-cgi php-cgi.orig         # to rename original php-cgi to php-cgi.orig

mv php5-cgi php-cgi             # to rename php5-cgi to php-cgi

/etc/init.d/httpd restart

Now you also have pdo_mysql and other...

Wow... Thanks for that!

I had to set permissions to 0755 for php-cgi...

Aslo, php.ini is wanted in /etc/php5cgi/
So I copied the one in /etc/php5

Nice try but no luck for me! EGroupware 1.6 has problem with imap. I had to upgrade instead of using php5-cgi
