- README FOR THE TUX MODULE (by Sascha Schumann)
- ($Date$)
- This is a SAPI module for the TUX web-server by Ingo Molnar.
- The special thing about TUX is that it is integrated into the Linux
- kernel and thus provides high-speed serving of static files.
- The web-server provides a user-space API which allows arbitrary
- plug-ins to be made available.
- All requests to the PHP userspace module are currently serialized.
- This module is of alpha quality. Due to incomplete APIs, HTTP
- authentication and handling of POST requests has not been
- implemented yet.
-
- SECURITY NOTE: PHP will happily run everything under the
- web-root through the parser; so be careful what you put
- there.
- Note that requests are served in a chroot'ed environment.
- The initialization of PHP does not take place in the chroot'ed
- environment, so that e.g. /usr/local/lib/php.ini is treated
- as usual.
- REQUIRED DOWNLOADS
- 1. TUX
- http://people.redhat.com/~mingo/TUX-patches/QuickStart-TUX.txt
-
- 2. PHP 4.0.x
-
- Download:
- http://www.php.net/
-
- Snapshots from CVS:
- http://snaps.php.net/
- BUILD INSTRUCTIONS
- 1. Install TUX as outlined in the QuickStart text.
- Create /tux-modules where modules will reside.
-
- 2. Prepare PHP
- $ cd php-*
- $ ./configure \
- --with-tux=/tux-modules \
- <further PHP options>
- # make install
-
- You can see the list of valid PHP options by executing
- $ ./configure --help
- 3. Touch a file in your web-root 'php5.tux'. This will
- cause requests to '/php5.tux' to be redirected to the
- userspace module php5.tux.
- 4. Start TUX with something like
- # tux -d -t 8 -r /www -m /tux-modules php5.tux
-
- (daemon mode, eight threads, web-root /www, modules in
- /tux-modules, load php5.tux)
- BEFORE running this command, the kernel side of TUX has to
- be properly setup.
-
- 5. Try to access
- http://yourserver/php5.tux?=PHPB8B5F2A0-3C92-11d3-A3A9-4C7B08C10000
- It should display the PHP credits page.
- To access a script /foo/bar.php, use
- http://yourserver/php5.tux?/foo/bar.php
- Parameters can be appended:
-
- http://yourserver/php5.tux?/foo/bar.php&var=value
