Hi,

i am trying to integrate pentaho with php. I must call an xaction from a php script. I'm using a php java bridge but i don't know what class i must include.

Can someone show me an example?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Why dont you simply install the platform next to your PHP server (as a separate process). Then you can call the server via ordinary HTTP calls.

Have you taken a look at the ViewAction servlet?

Usually called like http://localhost:8080/pentaho/ViewAction?solution=mySolution&path=myPath&action=myAction.xaction

Forgive me if you've already gone this far, but a pretty simple approach if all your PHP needs to do is redirect to Pentaho. Of course the real question is how does your PHP app know this URL?

I have already seen ViewAction servlet but i must show the result embedded in a html page. I can't redirect to Pentaho.

I'm developing a BI component for Joomla. I use Apache server and, based on my researches, i think i can't install Pentaho on Apache...

Hi,

After trying using Mondrian/JPivot I'd like to try and integrate JPivot into my own web application. The problem is that my web app is entirely written in PHP without a J2EE server in sight.

Has anybody tried integrating Mondrian/JPivot into non-JSP apps?

Thank you in advance for your help
