[vijay Si]

Hi i want to use php for some part of my project. Currently tomcat does not
interpret .php extension.
How should i enable php support?

Regards

by having an apache webserver with php enabled and use a connector to ofbiz.

Hi BJ,
thats exactly  what i wanted to know. how to have our embedded tomcat server
activate php. I have downloaded php installer. It is asking for the
webserver files. should i provide it the path of
"framework\catalina\lib\catalina.jar" . Also you mentioned establishing
connector. can u guide(links) me how to do that.

Regards

I would keep things simple.

Running PHP and ofbiz have nothing to do with each other with the exception that apache httpd server may handle the requests up front.

Keep the URL's separate

e.g.
/ecommerce/ for ofbiz (mod jk)

/ can map to your apache document root where your php files are located.

It took me about 20 minutes to setup the same thing.
http://calgon.rhoderunner.com/ is  a php site, with an ofbiz back end for the cart.

here is a good place to start if you have not already read through
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBADMIN/OFBiz+Documentation+Index
and this is good for setup of ofbiz
http://docs.ofbiz.org/display/OFBTECH/Apache+OFBiz+Technical+Production+Setup+Guide

Don't forget to have a look at mod_proxy_ajp (implies Apache HTTPD 2.2+)
http://www.nabble.com/How-to-render-Chinese-characters-in-OFBiz-PDF-reports--tf4241187.html#a12117084
http://www.nabble.com/ofbiz-with-mod_proxy_ajp-on-apache-2.2-and-FC5-tf2711280.html#a7581586

And in a general way
http://www.nabble.com/forum/Search.jtp?local=y&forum=2740&query=mod_proxy_ajp

I still not found the time to test and document

Hi Fellas
I am interested to know approximately what timeframe we have on the Customer
Relationship Management Module is due to be implemented.  At this point in
time I am tossing up whether to implement TinyERP or OFBiz.  The only thing
stopping me from choosing OFBiz is that it doesn't have a CRM module as yet.
Also not knowing when this might be implemented does not help with my
evaluation matrix

Thanks in advance for your input on this

Cheers
Phil

clarification
all the parts to do CRM are in ofbiz, they are scattered through the system.
They don't have the common terminology that most see on CRM SFA type
applications.

The only thing lacking is UI that are classified as CRM and SFA so
people can easily identify them.

Thanks BJ

Does it have the capabilities of implementing a small IT helpdesk, tracking
and catagorizing calls, warranties, SLA's, drilling down for reports for
time frame of resolving calls and so forth?

Thanks Phil
