[Php-java-bridge-users] Setting up Tomcat 6

[<php...@li...>]

Hi -
(Sorry if this gets posted multiple times, but I have had a horrid time 
trying to subscribe/post to this mail list and apparently cannot contact 
the list administrator either, (no replies to my attempts to do so) so I 
have tried to unsubscribe, resubscribe and repost...)

I am following the instructions found at -

http://php-java-bridge.sourceforge.net/doc/tomcat6.php

to integrate PHP with my Tomcat6 server and have ran into a snag which I 
don't quite understand. I got through the first two parts ok -

Download and install Java, Tomcat and PHP
Install a PHP web application into Tomcat

and ran the test examples fine. But when I tried to follow the 
instructions for the third section to make PHP available to all web apps -

PHP support for all existing Tomcat web applications

and tried to execute the small test example I am getting the following 
stack walkback error reported via an HTTP Status 500 web page -

type Exception report
message
description The server encountered an internal error () that prevented 
it from fulfilling this request.
exception

I have placed the jar files in the Tomcat lib directory and they appear 
to be fine with same ownership and permissions as the rest of the jar 
files. Some additional info -

Running under SuSE 11.2  x86_64
Tomcat6 ver 6.0.20-24.6.2  noarch
Java-1_6_0-sun x86_64
PHP5 ver 5.3.2-1.1.1 x86_84

Appreciate any offers of help and thanks in advance..  Marc..
