Dears,
I tired search for Weblogic threads and found nothing. Please help me configuring Piwik with weblogic 10. Piwik Servlet is crashing weblogic when I try to invoke some page.
I had success with Apache and Piwik. But already Tomcat 6 was refusing to cooperate.
Are there any instructions, and forum know-how on this subject. I tried many things over long time and no success with WL.
PLEASE HELP…
Does a simple phpinfo.php script work?
<?php phpinfo();

I have created some defaultPHPWebApp with all necessary CGIServlet settings in web.xml and weblogic.xml descriptor. so now when I type php.info I get text like at end of this post. Also I added piwik extracted zip to servlet’s php script path. When I try to invoke piwik.php I get following:
Warning: parse_ini_file(M:\piwik/config/config.ini.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in M:\piwik\libs\upgradephp\upgrade.php on line 463
Piwik is a free open source web analytics alternative to Google analytics.
However, the php script exists, but do I need to put every folder that contains php file into into servlet cgidir ?? What is the easyest and fastest way to get it working. I haven’t even started with db stuff, I guess there will be more job to do…
Anyway, will including piwik and all folders be enough ?
many thanks.

Bear with me, as I don’t actually use weblogic – however, I do see similarities with my Jetty and PHP CGI servlet configuration.
Do you have cgi.force_redirect = 0 in php.ini?
You should make index.php a welcome file (not piwik.php).

Hey, thanks for assistance. We are suffering with this more than a year. We gave up many times, but issues comes back on my task list, so please feel free to propose me things to try as I am running out of inspiration.
I would start here:
Weblogic finds only one php script that is directly visible thru the setting : M:/php_scripts;M:/piwik
Being a java developer, I would put every single php script into the path of this servlet, but I think that would be wrong way to go. Can’t I give some global path to this servlet to find them all, including property, config files that are inside various directories…
Yes I have that setting that you mentioned.
This reminds me on a problem that my colleague has asked before: dev.piwik.org / trac / ticket/701
That shouldn’t be a major difference with Jetty… I specify a context (which is associated with a directory), and everything in that directory that matches (*.php) can be executed by php-cgi.
Do you have open.base_dir restrictions?
Instead of running php-cgi directly, I suggest you use a bash script as a wrapper to set any missing environment variables. (Look at the Environment section at the end of the phpinfo() output.)

No, I don’t have open.base_dir restrictions.
I am in windows environment, I don’ think that script would solve the problem. However, if you tell me what settings are needed (you aleady nkow my config dirs, m:\piwik, m:\bea… c:\program~1\php ) I can set them.
Thanks for your reply.

Running index.php doesn’t do the job. It shows partial (broken) source of index.php.
Also , below answers aren’t helping. Any other clue?
PS:
Is there professional (payable) support from Piwik who can follow us step by step so I can outsource this task ??? If so, ping me to registration email. I am running in the circle…
Can you try:
<servlet-mapping>
<servlet-name>PHPCGIServlet</servlet-name>
<url-pattern>/piwik/*</url-pattern>
</servlet-mapping>
index.php should be the welcome file.
And browse to yoursite.com to start the installer.
note: the error with piwik.php is because you haven’t run the installer (config.ini.php doesn’t exist yet) and is thus, expected.

Hi, I have tried changing into what you proposed, but I always end up with same error message. I think that mapping of url gives same results regardless of how we map it as long as it can find piwik.php or whatever.php…
Error message is same as before:Warning: parse_ini_file(M:\piwik/config/config.ini.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in M:\piwik\libs\upgradephp\upgrade.php on line 463
Is there installer php script so I can try launching it manually ???
Thanks

PS: I remember passing this point when I was using tomcat 6
piwik,php is for the tracker; it doesn’t start up the installer, hence the error message
what is the error message when you open /piwik/index.php?

That looks like HTML. That means PHP did its job.
The problem appears to be:
<param-value>php.exe</param-value>
You appear to be loading the PHP-CLI binary which doesn’t send HTTP response headers, e.g., Content-type: text/html

Here is some example output from DOS. For me it looks that php is not interpreted everywhere as expected, look at “$(document).ready( function(){” . However when executing info.php all works fine.
This is pointing us in direction that some kind page generation is done correctly (html headers and body) and some (related to
index.php is a funnel for dynamic content requests, so it dispatches (loads) other .php files.
To assist in debugging your setup, edit your php.ini file and set these:
display_errors = On
log_errors = On
error_log = M:path/to/error.log
To verify that the correct php binary is used, create a file and browse to it:
<?php echo php_sapi_name();
The js errors may be because the static content isn’t loadable from the relative path of index.php.
Have you tried asking for help on the OTN forum?

(OTN - I doubt, this is php, although someone might know, maybe some php forum would help me better).
I leave this for now, I can’t do it, I have been given different priority tasks now… … it’s pity that there aren’t tutorials on installing piwik on various app servers… ping me if something happens to be written. I will watch over this forum for a while.
Thanks a lot for your effort, your answers will probably help others as well, that’s one of added values of forums…
Piwik is a php app, you need a standard working php webserver. Some weird appservers won’t help much I assume.
