PAMP Your Phone

Announcements - January 18th, 2008 - Written by Johan Wikman

The Personal AMP - Apache, MySQL and PHP - stack for S60 is now available!

You can download it from SourceForge and installation instructions are provided in our wiki.

PAMP is not a replacement for the web-server in MWS, but can be installed alongside MWS. And if you first start MWS and then PAMP, you can use the MWS connectivity for accessing your PAMP driven site.

Give it a shot, but be aware that there are plenty of rough edges, installation and otherwise, and it is therefore primarily intended for people who have prior experience of PHP, MySQL and CMSs, and who do not mind if something breaks along the way. For technical discussions, please use the Forum Nokia discussion board.

Have Fun!

Johan

    This is off topic… Just spent some moments trying to convert the web server book into a Mobipocket readable file … in vain. It occurred to me that why don’t you grab the Mobipocket creator and make the web server publications available as prc files at the MOSH - and save me the trouble :-) ? (I think on a hand held device the reading experience is better using a ebook reader such as Mobipocket than trying to read a pdf file…)
    cheers,

    Jussi, definitely. I’ll try to get the source in a right format. Wouldn’t hurt putting it out as a wiki site as well.

    Hi Folks!

    This combinition runs perfectly (1. MWS and then PAMP). It’s a really “Big Fucking PAMP Gun” (BFPG 9000 :-D )! Hey guys from Nokia, really good work and stuff. And it runs fine on my N81 8GB!!!!!
    If tested succesfully Mediawiki 1.11.0 and the newest WordPress-Version. Typo3 fails. Now I’m testing TypoLight. Hope this CMS runs on the Phone.
    Thanx for the good work you have done!!!

    Thorsten, it would be just great if you added installation instructions for Mediawiki, WordPress and any other packages you try out to our wiki :)
    Thanks for trying PAMP out!

    How to install MediaWiki and Wordpress:
    1.) untar the Tar-Balls
    2.) copy the web apps to diffrent subdirs, eg. mediawiki and wordpress under E:\Data\apache\htdocs
    3.) start MWS and then PAMP
    4.) type in the URL from MediaWiki and follow the Install Script (runs without change any program code :-D )
    4.a.) Attention: the MySQL root-User has no passwd and change localhost to 127.0.0.1
    4.b.) the installation completes then in a well manner
    5.) do the same with wordpress. In my case, I use the same DB as MediaWiki and I’m working with table prefixes

    Ok thats all. The runtime by accessing the web apps are slow, but it works! Hey guys from Nokia, you have made a great job. Fantastic! Thanx for this great web app!

    I have encountered a problem with the N81 phone: the web apps typo3, MediaWiki and Wordpress brings much many icons and images on the phone mass mem. the phone put all this stuff into his library. this slow down the phone enormously. so for the first time I’m uninstall all the stuff. if there is a chance to exclude subdir from indicating multimedia content?

    Thorsten, it’s not just with N81, but apparently with all phones. It seems that the Gallery application scans for image-files under the \Data directory and simply assumes that they all are images intended to be shown.

    The problem may go away if the DocumentRoot of Apache is moved away from under \Data. Havn’t tested it though.
