PHP fatal error : Class perl not found

[pranavb85]

Hi,

I have searched around for the solution to this problem, but I am trying to call a perl script from php, and get a fatal error:Class perl not found

I am using php 5.1.6 and apache 2.0 , php and apache is configured fine, as i am able to run <phpinfo()?> with out any problem. I have added php_perl.dll into my php.ini extensions ... and copied it to php/ext folder.

The scripts are very basic (from the source:http://devzone.zend.com/node/view/id/1712)

test.php:

<?php
 
print "Hello from PHP! ";
//$erl = new Perl();
//$perl->require("test1.pl");
print "Bye! ";
 
?>
 

test1.pl:
print "Hello from perl! "


Thanks'

Hi,

I found the solution

I was getting all the steps correct, just made a small path error mistake in the ini file, and damn it took me like 2-3 hours to get to know this...

Now I really know, what all can go wrong when u try php->perl

;)

Do you have the perl extension installed?

[smohan]

@Markus
yes.....I got the extension from this link and followed the steps http://pecl.php.net/package/perl.

and also tried with this command, but got the following error.
root@cogitate-linux2:~# cvs -d :pserver:cvs.ph p.net:/repository co pecl/perl
cvs checkout: authorization failed: server cvs.php.net rejected access to /repository for user root
cvs checkout: used empty password; try "cvs login" with a real password


and also The file perl.so is empty, if tried to open, it shows the error
Could not open the file /usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/perl.so.
There is no application installed for this file type

[Markus]

Did you compile the source code?

[smohan]

@Markus
mate......I have installed perl interpreter.... ...using the link http://pecl.php.net/package/perl.
.....and i included the extension perl.so in the php.ini file. I compiled and run the file in the browser.

This is the code

test1.pl

print "Hello from perl! "

test1.php

<?php
 
print "Hello from PHP! ";
$perl = new Perl();
$perl->require("test1.pl");
print "Bye! ";
 
?>

and the output is

Hello from PHP!
( ! ) Fatal error: Class 'Perl' not found in /var/www/mohan/test1.php on line 4
Call Stack
#    Time    Memory    Function    Location
1    0.0003    54160    {main}( )    ../test1.php:0
 

This is wat i have edited in the php.ini file

; extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/perl.so"
extension_dir = "/usr/lib/php5/20060613+lfs/perl.so"
This is the path wher i the perl.so file stored in the directory

; extension=perl. so
extension=perl. so

Does your phpinfo() output show that the Perl module is enabled?

[smohan]

@Markus
how to check that?


ya i got it.....it is intalled......


i used

<?php

// Show all information, defaults to INFO_ALL
phpinfo();

// Show just the module information.
// phpinfo(8) yields identical results.
phpinfo(INFO_MO DULES);

?>

save this prog in file called phptest.php and run in the browser


and also u can check it in command prompt using this command

perl -MTie::Hash -e 1

If you don't get any output from the above command then the module is installed; if you get an error, it's not installed


It is installed.....
