To install PHP for the runtime version of PAW, download the file PawRuntime_PHP_Setup.zip (link below) and unzip it to /sdcard of your Android device.
After starting PAW Runtime a PHP menu entry should be available.
After selecting the entry the page shown below should appear...
 |
| PHP Setup |
If you wold like to get rid of unnecessary files and the menu entry, you can delete the file /sdcard/paw-runtime/webconf/apps/php_setup.conf and everything inside the /sdcard/paw-runtime/html/php_setup directory except the conf directory.

i have only thing to tell you...
ReplyDeleteYou are the BEST!
The most fastest answer in the world!
Thank you! When i finish my projects i will come back and tell you :)
Ok ... I'm curious :)
Deletewhat is the link to open in browser the server?
ReplyDeleteThere is no link. Just open the app.
DeleteLove your work!
ReplyDeleteCan you provide the source code as you did with the original paw-runtime (http://fun2code-blog.blogspot.com.au/2010/09/paw-runtime.html)? or is the source available on github or similar?
I am interested in contributing to this project.
Thanks,
Dean.
I've updated the source also.
DeleteJust use the link from the original post.
Thanks!
DeleteSounds very interesting, but it doesn't work on my phone... just says 'available applications' with black screen, that's it.
ReplyDeleteCan you please assist?
Cheers - 0/1
Uuups ... sorry!
ReplyDeleteThere was an error in the index.xhtml file.
So if only one application was installed nothing appeared on the first screen.
This should be fixed, I've uploaded an update.
Please download and install the new version and make sure to delete the /sdcard/paw-runtime folder prior to the first start of the app.
Hey Jochen,
ReplyDeleteIs paw-server open source?
It would be great to know how you got this all running on android...
Thanks,
Dean.
PAW Server itself is not Open Source.
DeleteBut the PAW Runtime Eclipse project is available as download.
With that it's possible to build your own server.
You can find the download here:
http://paw-android.fun2code.de/download/AndroidPawRuntime_Eclipse_Project.zip
With Paw-Runtime can you actually build a server to serve pages to other machines on the network though?
DeleteThanks,
Dean.
If there is interest I can add some changes to PAW that would allow to build your own app with PAW backend.
DeleteThis might take a while, but I could do that.
That would be very helpful!
DeleteI'm considering using paw-runtime to do a presentation at sydphp.org on how php developers can create apps for android using your program :)
Thanks again for your work!
Hi, I'm doing my first experiments with PAW, I can access the server through my local network (WIFI) from a PC, however when I try this address in the same phone browser (locally) I can not access it, I can neither access the server using the loopback (127.0.0.1) or "localhost", can give me some tip about what I'm missing?. Thanks in advance.
ReplyDeleteThis normally should work.
DeletePAW binds to all interfaces. I've used it a couple of times without problems.
What's your device?
I've a samsung galaxy s2
DeleteThat's odd, I'd opera mini installed, I uninstalled and with the default browser I ready can access PAW
ReplyDeleteI'm not able to run php interpreter. Could someone tell me how to make it working? It is possible to create an app or something similar with this server to make it download files from the Internet in background? I would like to use it as a download station.
ReplyDeleteExcuse me for my bad English...
PHP 5.3.8 does not seem to work with all devices, but 5.3.6 should.
DeleteIt is possible to run things in background. Depending on how and what you would like to do the normal PAW server might be a better choice.
Thank you very much but the problem is that I haven't been able to understand where I have to put php files of your package... Is there someting ready to force the device to download files? In fact I would like something like a box where I put a file url and the device download it for me.
DeleteYou might want to try the normal PAW Server from the Play Store:
Deletehttps://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.fun2code.android.pawserver
There is also a PHP plugin available. After the plugin is installed, you can place your PHP files inside the /sdcard/paw/html directory.
I have installed this but I don't know how to apply the php plugin.
ReplyDeleteYou can find more about the plugin and its installation in the following post:
Deletehttp://fun2code-blog.blogspot.de/2011/04/paw-server-php.html

ReplyDeleteCan this become an android webserver for slidifier: (repository zip:)
ReplyDeletehttps://github.com/Espenhh/Slidifier ?
I can run the slidifier repository in winXP with the portable app "USB webserver":
http://www.portablefreeware.com/?id=1185 . So I was wondering.
Many thanks for your great work.
I don't know Slidifier.
DeleteThis might work or not work, I can't tell.
Give it a try.
Thanks for your quick reply. The short question is hopefully you would give me a link (if there is one / a few) to using "sqlite" on PAW which the above depended. I browsed briefly here and it seemed to escape me (my bad).
DeleteI have no experience with PHP and SQLite.
DeleteWhat I know is that phpLiteAdmin is working.
sqlite works no problems...
Deletejust do something like:
$dbh = new PDO('sqlite:/sdcard/my_database.sqlite');
$dbh->exec($query);
Hello Jochen. You pointed to the right direction and for the benefit of others I would humbly say that (on a preliminary basis) I succeeded by following this in the phpliteadmin site: just first 5 paragraphs above Gscript-Lite (so device-rooting is NOT needed):
Deletehttp://code.google.com/p/phpliteadmin/issues/detail?id=66 . Greeting and a big thank-you.
Hello Dean. Our replies practically crossed each other in cyberspace (didn't see your guide while I was typing my reply). GreetingS and thank you too.
DeleteHi,
ReplyDeleteCan you help me?
i want use a sqlite database on PAW Server (sqlite2 and not sqlite3).
and use the sqlite_open() function, but i have a
Disk i/o error.
sqlite3 seems to work, but i need sqlite2.
How its possible to use a sqlite2 database ?
Thanks

ReplyDeleteHi,
Deletewhat version of Android does your device run?
Could you please send me the logcat output (jochen[at]fun2code.de).
Thanks...
I'm using the PAW from Google store and want to use the runtime and PHP now.
ReplyDeleteBut the download links are redirected to other site.
Can you please check the download links?
Thanks.
The download links are correct. I don't know why some browsers seem to have problems.
DeleteTry wget instead, this should work.
Could download with Downthemall in FF.
ReplyDeleteNot sure why either, but if I just put http://paw-android.fun2code.de in FF (WinXP)it goes to Google.
Thanks.
This doesn't seem to work for me. I have tried installing the "Paw Server" which it had no issues installing, but when I go to access the http://IP:8080/app/ folder, I am asked for a password, I type in the admin/paw and it asks for the password again.. I have tried this on android "My Browser" and "Browser" (guessing IE and Chrome versions?)
ReplyDeleteI am running Android 2.2 on a WM8650 WonderMedia netbook..
I have also tried the instructions on this page (uninstalled the Paw Server) and ran the Paw Runtime, and though the app installs, it gives an error on opening of the Paw Runtime. The error says, "The application Paw Runtime (process de.fun2code.android.pawruntime) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.
I am debating just moving to HTML 5 only for what I need, and using local databases.. though I would love to have php available... :(
Normally the user/password should work. You can try to disable it by renaming the file /sdcard/paw/paw/html/app/auth.bsh.
DeleteFor the FC when starting the runtime, you can send me your logcat output to:
jochen [at] fun2code.de
Hmm, There is no auth.bsh file in that folder... Maybe I am missing something? I have downloaded the file from, http://fun2code.de/download.html, the "Download SdCard Content" link. I have double checked, and do not see that this file is provided with the zip?
DeleteMake sure to install PAW from the Play Store. Sounds like you are using an old version.
DeleteMy tablet has only front camera no back camera.It error when call function web cam like this.Is it cause?
DeleteI don't have such a device, so I can't test.
DeleteYou could try the following methods of CameraPreview:
setCameraId(id)
boolean isCameraIdSupported()
int getBackCameraId()
int getFrontCameraId()
Try to set the camera id to the front facing camera.

ReplyDeleteOK. Thx. I try on my T Mobile G1.:)
DeleteWorks finally be the php module. The installation went smoothly paw reach of the Internet posed no problem. The PHP installation is not something went smooth, but finally succeeded. I know it's not a small effort to pack the server, and therefore I can not really criticize. : xD The thing is that I've tried a couple of mobile phones, servers, and the paw well, not one of the fastest. Then kise Elvan komplikalva the server. Many features are not interesting, it is not safe, that are disclosed to the public, at par with the functionality that did not work on my phone, and therefore the complicated signaling. Good luck continues. :)
Deletehttp://csa.gowisoft-hosting.tk/gallery/index.php?display=2012%2FMobil%2Fpaw.JPG
Why Php is not supported in SGY. I tried it many times. I want Paw Integrated with php mysql.
ReplyDeleteDid you try PHP 5.3.6?
DeletemySQL is not supported but SQLite will work.
Is it possible to run my PHP script from external SD, and not the paw/html folder? I saw somewhere on this blog that this is possible with the piratebox plugin, so I wonder whether this can work the same way with the PHP plugin also! Possible? Or am I asking too much?
ReplyDeleteYou can change the directory inside the file /paw-runtime/conf/handler.xml.
DeleteThere is a section called "PHP CGI Handler" which also includes the directory definition.
Change the value of the parameter "phpCgiHandler.root";
Hope that's working...
hi!
ReplyDeletethe first step was successful .. i can see the plugin on the list.
when i try to install it is popup a login screen , so i try to login with user:admin pass:paw ... is no way :the popup window to login again and again is reapearing over and over again..
i use android in virtualbox , the paw server works well, i can see in maxtor browser the settings page of paw : http://10.0.2.15:8080
i tryed to set another pass on settings..that works but not fix the problem installation.

I have a rooted Samsung Galaxy S2 running the CM9 rom. I installed PAW web server from Google play, then uploaded the unzipped PHP plugin using sshDroid to the /mnt/sdcard/paw/html/app/plugin folder. After rebooting my phone, I placed a PHP file in the /mnt/sdcard/paw/html/ path, but the error message I got was "No input file specified". What am I doing wrong?
ReplyDeleteTry to use PHP 5.3.6. With later versions, there seem to be problems on some devices.
DeleteHope that helps...
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI've installed Paw server and I try to install the php paw runtime. I've the installation page for both 5.3.8 and 5.3.6 and the select TimeZone box, but no country to choose... :(
I've restart the Paw serveur but nothing happend... no country to choose and than no way to install !
Could you help me ?
Thanks a lot !
Does this error occur in PAW Server or the PAW Runtime?
DeleteIf it occurs in PAW Server an error message should be visible within the HTML source.
So you can send me the iframe HTML soure and I will have a look.

Heylo,
Deletewhen I run 192.168.1.18:8080 I reach the pawserver homepage. Then I click on PHP Setup/PHP Setup for Paw Runtime.
I reach the 192.168.1.18:8080/php_setup/index.xhtml page with a form. In this form, I've on options for the select TimeZone...
I haven't yet open the source code from those files. I'll do it now.
Try to open in a different browser. Even I faced the same issue, but turned out it was my browser's problem.
DeleteThe script "source(pluginPath + "/bsh/php_timezones.bsh")" doesn't works and doesn't give the array courntries to the select.
ReplyDeleteMaybe the pluginPath is not detected correctly. It might be better to communicate via mail instead of commenting the blog. Just send me a mail and we will try to figure this out.
Deleteit works! it was my browser's problem!!!! Thanks for making this app!!!!
ReplyDeletehas anyone gotten exec() or system() functions to work? I'm trying to execute android shell commands.
ReplyDeleteWhen I put these functions in a webpage and run it nothing happens.

ReplyDeleteI'm interested in your post(paw server).Possibly, How can I run (paw server) in the background on my App?
ReplyDeleteYes, i would love to know if is there any way to run it as a background application on our apps, thats would be awesome
DeleteYes, this is possible.
DeleteHave a look at the PAW Runtime source code:
http://paw-android.fun2code.de/download/AndroidPawRuntime_Eclipse_Project.zip
This is free for private and educational use.
Thank you for providing good app PAW server.
ReplyDeleteI use PHP plugin with PAW server.
-PAW server : version 0.89.
-PHP Plugin : version 0.6.
-Android : 4.2.2 (NEXUS7)
I can't have access with following code.
In case of using directive IP, I can access.
>NG!!
// $URL = "http://74.125.235.120/"; >> OK!!
$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $URL);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$output = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);
print $output;

I guess the name resolve program is not working correctly.
Sorry but my comment is garbled when I copy and paste.

Seems like a problem with the name resolution.
DeleteI myself use PHP very rarely. The PHP binary is taken from the site below. Maybe you get more information there.
http://hex.ro/wp/blog/php-and-lighttpd-for-android/
Thank you for your information.
DeleteIt seems that they don't solve dns problem.
According to their blog, the PHP is compiled based on glibc library, but Android is based on Bionic library. They need to refer to Bionic library to solve this problem.
There is actually a Bionic version.
DeleteThe plugin contains a list of PHP versions. The oldest version I built myself and is compiled against Bionic. But this has other problems.
This comment has been removed by the author.
DeleteWell, I got it.
DeleteSo they also had a reason not to refer to its library.
If I find a solution, I try and report it.
PS. I also try "gethostbynamel" but the result is the same. Maybe it is the same problem.
Thank you.
Thanks good reply.
