I''m trying to run some non-ruby code in my rails app and i''m not sure how to do this. The code i have would take a really long time to port to ruby and so i''d rather run it as is (its php). What i would like to have happen is that the code can be invoked as an ajax call. And just return some data in JSON. I keep running into a routing failure by actioncontroller and i''m not sure how to get around this. I know its seems terrible to run php inside the rails app, but i''m not sure what the best solution is here. I''d greatly like some insight on the best way to accomplish. thanks in advance.

If you told us more about what you''re trying to accomplish and what routing errors you''re getting, I''d imagine that your problem will quickly be pointed out and solved. - Matt

Here is the routing error i''m getting:
ActionController::RoutingError (Recognition failed for
"/myscript.php"):
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:521:in
`recognition_failed''
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:511:in
`recognize!''
/usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.4/lib/dispatcher.rb:38:in
`dispatch''
I''m trying to figure out how to route this request to myscript.php. Is
the right place to do it in .htaccess or should something be done in
httpd.conf?
Eventually i''ll port the php to ruby, but time is limited right now and
i just need to get something working.
Thanks.

You need to set up apache to handle PHP requests. That would be done in httpd.conf On 8/8/06, Manish Shah <mnshah@gmail.com> wrote:> Here is the routing error i''m getting: > > ActionController::RoutingError (Recognition failed for "/myscript.php"): > /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:521:in > `recognition_failed'' > /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/actionpack-1.12.3/lib/action_controller/routing.rb:511:in > `recognize!'' > /usr/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/rails-1.1.4/lib/dispatcher.rb:38:in > `dispatch'' > > > I''m trying to figure out how to route this request to myscript.php.

The simplest solution is probably just to run apache/php on the same hostname but a different port. But if apache is already out in front of your rails app somewhere, you could just use a simple Alias command or something similar. The solution is fairly simple, but depends on your exact setup.

Hi, I also have a need to run PHP inside my ROR scripts. I want to execute the code directly in the views though. So far I''ve tried putting <?php echo ''test''; ?> right inside the index.rhtml file. After checking the source code of the rendered page it just shows "<?php echo ''test''; ?>". I''ve tested my servers by running a test.php file in /public and that executes fine. Does anyone know how to execute PHP inside of the rhtml view? Thanks, Nate -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.

Or, write a proxy _in_ php and have it eval everything it gets back!
