[rrd-users] Re: rrdtool contrib php4 - stand alone module

[Kempf, Reed]

Are you just trying to display rrdtool graphs in php?

If you are, I just went through an exercise where I did that.

Here are some points as to what I did:
1. compiled rrdtool to use from a command line  (in linux shell scripts)
2. created rrdtool databases and populated rows from external source
3. created rrdtool graphs which I displayed straight to standard out
4. used embedded html (image src=" ") within php to then display the graphs
which were directed to standard out

I realize this is simplistic, but the two important points are creating
graphs in shell scripts and using php to call those shell scripts with the
php <$command> and then using php and html (img src) to display them.

It really works smooth.

If you think this info is useful, please let me know and I can feed you some
specifics as to what I did.

ps, my php and rrdtool are compiled for redhat linux 6.2

hello...
I have problems biulding the php4 extension as a standalone module.

Here's what I did:
1. cd /my/rrdtool_source/directory
./configure --enable-shared
make
make install

2. cd /my/rrdtool_source/directory/contrib/php4
./configure --with-rrdtool=/usr/local/rrdtool-1.0.33
--with-php-config=/usr/local/bin/php-config
make
make install

I have php-4.0.4pl1 installed on my computer.

My php file looks like this:

<?
dl("rrdtool.so");
$opt=array("--step", "300");
if($select_RSSI=='1'){
    array_push($opt,"DS:RSSI:GAUGE:400:0:135");
    $bool=1;
};

...and so on

The answer of apache is:

Warning: Invalid library (maybe not a PHP library) 'rrdtool.so' in
/var/www/status.rdscj.ro/radio_status/do_manag.php on line 2

I could not find an answer to my problem so I joined this mailing list
hoping for a solution :)
