I’m trying to install Gearman + Net_Gearman + GearmanManager on a windows machine (2003 server).
At this moment, I executed correctly the java version of the Job Server (java-gearman-service), installed PEAR and the Net_Gearman package.
- Do I need to add gearman library to php.ini? How?
- What is the way to “connect” gearmanmanager to net_gearman? Is it necessary to copy the files of gearmanmanager in the same directory of I thing is net_gearman (C:\php\PEAR\Net\Gearman)?
- How do I test that everything is working fine?
Thanks, I’m really lost with that and work with windows it’s a big handicap 🙁
GearmanManager won’t work on Windows – so there’s not much you can do there. It uses the pcntl extension in PHP, which is not available for Windows.
You do not need to add PHP_Gearman to the ini file, as it’s a PEAR library. As long as it’s installed as a regular PEAR package (in the directory configured in your php.ini by default), you’re good to go. Otherwise you’ll have to add the directory containing Net/ to your include_path.
You can test that everything is working fine by submitting a task to a gearman server by running your client from the CLI, and then seeing if your worker process gets any work to do. I don’t know anything about the java-gearman-service, but the regular C-daemon can be put into a “more verbose” mode by adding -vvvv to the command line (I forget the number of v-s: more v’s equals more verbose.
I know that this is an old question, but if anyone stumbles across this through the intarwebs..
