<sect1>Testing
<p>

These instructions apply to PHPLIB running with CGI PHP. Most of
them is valid for mod&lowbar;php as well, though. This section
offers an incremental approach to find installation problems,
should the above installation process fail.

We do have a support mailing list available under the address
<tt/[e-mail]/. To subscribe to the list, send the command
<tt/subscribe/ to the address <tt/[e-mail]/.

<tag>Checking that the web server is up and running</tag>

Make sure your web server is up and serving the virtual host you
just set up. To do this, construct a small file <tt/test1.html/
in your DocumentRoot and access <tt/test1.html/ through your
web server.

<tag>Checking that the web server is executing CGI programs</tag>

Make sure your web server is up and does run CGI. Check the
current directory, the UID/GID it is running programs under and
have a look at the environment variables. Install the shell
script

<tscreen><code>
#! /bin/sh --
 
echo "Content-Type: text/plain"
echo
id
echo
pwd
echo
env | sort
echo
</code></tscreen>

in your cgi directory under the name of <tt/cgi-test/ and in
your document root under the name of <tt/cgi-test.cgi/. Make it
executable. Try to access
<tt>/cgi/cgi-test?par1=one&amp;par2=two</tt> and
<tt>/cgi-test.cgi?par1=one&amp;par2=two</tt> and check the
output. What UID/GID are you running under, what is the output
of <tt/pwd/ and what environment variables are set? What does
<tt/QUERY&lowbar;STRING/ look like? What does the <tt/PATH/
variable look like, what does the
<tt/LD&lowbar;LIBRARY&lowbar;PATH/ variable look like and are
all libraries needed by PHP accessible to PHP running in the CGI
environment (Check by running the Unix <tt/ldd/ command on PHP).

In particular, if you built Oracle support into PHP and linked
<tt/libclntsh/ dynamically: Can it be loaded from the CGI environment? If
not, PHP will not come up later in the next step.

<tag>Checking that the PHP interpreter is running (Assuming CGI
PHP)</tag>

Copy your PHP binary into the cgi binary directory (which should
NOT be below DocumentRoot!) and make it executable. Copy
<tt/php3.ini/ into the same directory. In DocumentRoot, create a
<tt/test2.php3/ and put &lt;?php phpinfo() ?&gt; into it.

Are you running Apache? Add

<tscreen><code>
Action       php3-script /cgi/php
AddHandler   php3-script .php3
DirectoryIndex index.php3 index.html index.htm
FancyIndexing on
</code></tscreen>

to your config. This will map all requests to files ending in
<tt/.php3/ to the <tt/php3-script/ handler and define
<tt>/cgi/php</tt> as the URL handling <tt/php3-script/ requests
internally.

Request <tt>/test2.php3</tt> and see that it is being executed.
Make changes to your <tt/php3.ini/ (preferable some color
definitions) and reload. Are they reflected in the output of
<tt/phpinfo()/? If not, your <tt/php3.ini/ is not being found
and your are having a problem. Recompile with proper settings.

Check the output of <tt/phpinfo()/ carefully! Is your PHP
version current (We have tested and developed this release with
PHP 3.0.12)? Are your database interfaces present in the output
of <tt/phpinfo()/? If not, recompile again.

Can you access <tt>/test2.php3</tt> under the URL
<tt>/cgi/php/test2.php3</tt> as well? If so, you did not compile
your PHP interpreter with <tt/--enable-force-cgi-redirect/.
PHPLIB will not work with this interpreter. Recompile with the
switch being set.

<tag>PHP interpreter (Assuming mod&lowbar;php)</tag>
<p>

Assuming your server is already correctly setup
(don't forget to activate the PHP lines in <tt/srm.conf/!),
enter the following file and save it as <tt/test2.php3/
under your DocumentRoot.

<tscreen><code>
<? phpinfo() ?>
</code></tscreen>

If you access this using a web browser now, it should spit out
much info about PHP, Apache and its environment.

<tag>Checking PHPLIB inclusion</tag>
<p>Does you PHP include PHPLIB properly? Check your
<tt/php3.ini/ file. It must include the following settings:

<tscreen><code>
include&lowbar;path = pathname to directory with all the .inc files
auto&lowbar;prepend&lowbar;file = path to prepend.php3
track&lowbar;vars = On
</code></tscreen>

It should contain the following settings, too:

<tscreen><code>
magic&lowbar;quotes&lowbar;gpc = On
</code></tscreen>

If PHPLIB is included properly by your setup, the following page
will execute without errors:

<tscreen><code>
&lt;?php
$db = new DB&lowbar;Example;
print "It works without error messages.<br>\n";
 ?&gt;
</code></tscreen>

<tag>Checking database connectivity</tag>
<p>PHPLIB installation requires that you adapt <tt/local.inc/
properly. Particularly, the provided class <tt/DB&lowbar;Example/ must be
customized for your database connection. Test that your
web server can access the database with the following page:

<tscreen><code>
&lt;?php
  include("table.inc"); // requires include&lowbar;path to be functioning

  $db = new DB&lowbar;Example;
  $db->query("select * from auth&lowbar;user");

  $t = new Table;
  $t->heading = "on";
  $t->show&lowbar;result($db);
?&gt;
</code></tscreen>

When executing properly, this page will show you the user entry
for <tt/kris/, password <tt/test/, permissions <tt/admin/ from
the <tt/auth&lowbar;user/ table. If this does not happen, your
<tt/DB&lowbar;Example/ definition in <tt/local.inc/ is broken.

<tag>Checking that sessions work</tag>
<p>Access the page <tt>/index.php3</tt> that has been provided
with the distribution. This page will try to set a cookie in
your browser. Allow that cookie to be set.

The page will display a headline with a counter. Reload that
page. The counter must increment. If not, either your browser
cannot deal properly with cookies or PHPLIB cannot properly read
or write the table <tt/active&lowbar;sessions/ in your database.  Check
that the cookie is being set by viewing the output of
<tt/phpinfo()/ (the fourth table will report the cookie and
other per-call data). Check your database permissions with your
database command line interface.

<tag>Checking that Authentication works</tag>
<p>Try loading <tt>/showoff.php3</tt> that has been provided
with the distribution. This page will require a login. Login as
<tt/kris/, using a password of <tt/test/. If the login is
successful, you will see the per-session counter and a per-user
counter again. Reload that page: The counters must increment.

If you can't login, you probably have a problem with cookies.
Check again that your browser accepts and sends session cookies.
Another problem may be access to the <tt/auth&lowbar;user/ table. You
must be able to <tt/SELECT/ on that table and there must be at
an entry for the user you are trying to login.
