Ive created a test page to test using Prince xml but this code doesn't seem to work.
index.php
require_once("prince.php");
$prince = new Prince('www1.must.edu.ph/tts/prince/Engine/bin/prince.exe');
$prince->setHTML(true);
$html = file_get_contents("reportHeader.html");
$ret = $prince->convert_string_to_file($html,'www1.must.edu.ph/tts/prince/Engine/bin/pink.pdf');
echo $html;
if($ret)
echo "converted";
else
echo "not";
whenever I access the page, there is no error.. it just displays the echoed $html and 'not'..
Problem 1:
I spotted the problem. You run PHP code in an .html ? Change the file extension to .php and re-upload to PHP-enabled hosting server & retry.
Problem 2:
The constructor does not set correctly. The constructor requires an absolute path on server, instead of an URL. The readme.html already mentioned this. It should look like:
$prince = new Prince('/usr/local/bin/prince');
In read me, it said:
On Windows, be sure to specify the path to the prince.exe file located
within the Engine\bin subfolder of the Prince installation.
Note: Most of the PHP-enabled hosting server are NOT Windows-based; even it's Windows-based, it won't allow you to execute .exe .
This happened to me, so I used SSH to access my server and realized that I did not have a font library installed. If you are using something like CentOS, then you will need to install a font library first. I found this helpful http://blog.whatgeek.com.pt/2011/11/10/install-core-fonts-centos-6/
Running Prince on a virtual box on my Mac using the YesLogic PHP wrapper and parsing the PHP files with a web browser. No PDF output, no errors reported by the wrapper.
The answers above didn't resolve the issue for me.
So I parsed the PHP files from the command line using 'php -f index.php' and it worked. Stupid mistake on my part - my PHP files simply didn't have the correct permissions.

I'm trying to build this certain PHP extension on Visual Studio Code 2017 in the Integrated Terminal, and I tried using the phpize command (there is an environment variable for the directory). It keeps outputting
C:\xampp\php\ext\php-geos
$ C:\xampp\php\php-src-php-7.2.6\win32\build\phpize
Input Error: Can not find script file "C:\xampp\php\php-src-php-7.2.6\win32\build\phpize.js".
Error generating configure script, configure script was not copied
even though it's right there. The file path is right. I checked the folder.
How can I fix this?
Found the problem: the .js file was actually a .js.in file. I solved the problem by changing the extension, but I guess another solution is to edit phpize and put .in where it is applicable.
New to php and taking a class for it. Bought php6 and mysql 6 bible to get started. Of course the hello world script is the first you get and it doesn't show. It just reads part of my script and I'm not sure the problem. Link to test - http://harden6615.com/
I am using a hosted server I bought for class, but I have also check it using MAMP. I figured my script is wrong, but I have copied and pasted and still no Hello World. Any suggestions?
What I copied:
<?php
print("Hello, World<BR />\n");
phpinfo();
?>
Safe the file as index.php instead of index.html.
Checklist:
host allows PHP
file has .php extension
file was edited with a programmer's text editor (not word/wordpad under windows or TextEdit under Mac) because some encode <, > symbols when saving the file
Well actually it isn't, try to use just <?php phpinfo(); ?> If this doesn't show anything - take a look at your webhost if he supports php...
There are a few reasons why PHP may not be being executed.
The most basic error is saving the file as a .html file instead of .php. Make sure you use the correct extension on your file.
Next, make sure your webhost supports PHP. Most free hosts do not, so it's always a good idea to double-check.
There is nothing wrong with your code. If the above two solutions didn't help, try contacting your webhost and asking them why PHP isn't working for you.
I have Joomla installed in my computer, but recently have been writing php files that aren't related to the Joomla-managed site. For some reason, when I try to open those php files in the web browser using xampp (note: Joomla also is using xampp), the browser doesn't process the code w/in the tags as php code.
For example, after opening a basic page (a page with title "test", no content except in the body tags) in the web browser and going to the source code, the following is shows up in the source code:
<body>
<?php echo "hello"; ?>
</body>
instead of the HTML conversion. (i.e. just "hello")
Does anyone have an idea about what's going on here?
Thanks.
It's probably because PHP module isn't loaded in your apache. Be sure it is enabled
PHP is interpreted in the server, not the browser. Whatever's going wrong, you need to look at the SERVER side to resolve it.
My first guess: maybe you didn't suffix the file ".php" (so the server doesn't recognize it as a PHP file?)
Second guess: is the directory containing your PHP files configured to parse PHP?
If you have Joomla, you probably have PHP. You probably also have Apache.
So check your Apache configuration, and check your file naming conventions.
Is the file extension .php? The server doesn't magically know when you're serving php files, this is a good way to ensure it knows what you're doing.
Apache is looking into your localhost's defined root directory for files it can parse. In this case htdocs. This is the default for XAMPP. As far as Apache is concerned, it will not interpret any files outside of that folder.
if the problem in php module it better to re install php5 in to the system and it will work fine. probably the problem is in php module you should try re installing php in your system.
Just restart httpd service. It will work fine.
sudo systemctl restart httpd.service
if it has not worked please reinstall PHP once again.
I have a quick question that I can't figure out. I've tried searching Google and following examples, but I can't find anything.
I have an HTML form that I'm trying to process with a PHP file, but when I submit the form, it merely prints the source of the PHP file, it doesn't execute it. If I run the PHP file by itself (not indirectly through the HTML button), it works fine.
HTML form header:
<form id="registrationform" name="registrationform" method="post" action="processregistration.php">
Submit button:
<button type="submit" value="Submit" >Create</button>
The PHP form is just <?php print "Hello"; /?
Again, it runs fine if I just run the PHP file, but prints the PHP file (doesn't run) when it gets called through the HTML form.
Any help is appreciated.
edit-Running locally through Coda
edit-Here is the output that I'm getting:
Output when the PHP is called through an HTML action:
</php
print "Hello";
?>
Output when I run the PHP directly through Coda:
Hello
I had the same problem and just fixed it on my coda version 1.7.4
I installed MAMP on my mac and set up the apache path under MAMP preferences to the folder where my sites are located;
/Users/yourUserName/Sites
this points MAMP's 'http://localhost:8888' address to your sites folder, if you paste that on your browser you'll now see your sites folder's content in the browser.
then, all you do is point the local site's connection settings to the site you are testing;
I was going to post an image, but I'm new to the site and wasn't allowed.
Under my site's preferences i set up the addresses as follows;
Root URL : 'http://localhost:8888/yourSiteRootFolder/'
Local URL : 'http://localhost:8888/yourSiteRootFolder/'
Remote Root : /yourSiteRootFolder/
Local Root : /Users/amartinez/Sites/yourSiteRootFolder/
I hope this is related to the problem you're having and helps you fix it.
Line #19 from Coda 1.6 Release notes:
Coda no longer tries to locally
preview a remote PHP file while
editing/previewing
Listed under "Improvement" - doubt they brought it back for the 1.7 release.
I'm running Apache2/PHP5 10.5.8 OS X (no problem reproducing your issue with Coda)
Even when running my form.html and post.php files from /Library/WebServer/Documents folder.
My sample files work fine in the Apache env....I just needed to run them through Coda to "break" them. :-)
Are you sure the html file and the php script are on a server with php support enabled?
I've never used Coda, but you need to be running it through a server (e.g. Apache + PHP). You cannot just open the file itself within Windows.
Try looking at xampp as a quick server for testing.
If it works properly, you should be viewing the PHP file on something like http://localhost/test.php instead of file:///something/test.php.
This may be because you don't have PHP installed on your server. I would check to make sure that your hosting package included PHP, pre installed.
Here are some resources to get you started with that, if not installed:
http://www.thesitewizard.com/php/install-php-5-apache-windows.shtml
http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.php
http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/php_install.asp
Edit: actually, I think I may have found it.
If you look at the starting PHP tag, you have a slash instead of a ?. If that's in your script, just change that to <?php. But it may not be, it could be that's just question format-ing.
I've just installed LAMP on my Ubuntu 9.10 machine, and everything works fine except when I copy my PHP files from another computer.
The LAMP guides I've followed also made me create a phpinfo() test file, which works, but when I try to type in e.g. index.php absolutely nothing happens - just a blank page in FireFox. :(
The files are in the exact same directory.
I'm thinking it's probably something with permissions and so on, but since I'm new to both PHP and Ubuntu, I'm kind of lost. It's like I can't create a PHP file with my file browser, but only by using the terminal - like when I created the testing.php from the LAMP guide.
Whaddayaknow... I made an error, tried to:
echo "Hello" world
which, even though I'm a PHP noob, I clearly know is wrong.
I think I'll have to figure out how to enable some sort of error reporting, a blank page is clearly not good enough.
You mean you have a index.php (copied from another computer) and a test.php (edited by hand, with a call to phpinfo()) in the same apache directory, the second works from your browser and the first doesnt ?
That can be a permission issue, or some compilation error in your php.
About permissions, for files should be readable from the apache server (more precisely, form the user that runs the apache server). You can type chmod a+r index.php.
YOu can also check your apache error logs (location dependent on installation). In any case it's vital to know where the error logs are if your are developing a web site.
