Part I: Installing Resin

Downloading and unzipping Resin

  1. Navigate to http://www.caucho.com/download
  2. Download the latest Resin binary for your operating system.
    • For purposes of this demo, I have downloaded the Windows .zip binary. The non-pro version is free to use. If you chose to use the extended features of the pro version, you can get a free limited-time evaluation license at http://www.caucho.com/license. Just fill out the form and a license will be mailed to you within minutes.
  3. Save the file to your desktop.
  4. Double click the binary and unzip the file.
    • For purposes of this demo, I have unzipped the contents to c:\resin-3.0.14

Running Resin for the first time

  1. Browse to the directory into which you unzipped the resin download (ie: c:\resin-3.0.14)
  2. Double-click httpd.exe. At this point the resin web server should start.
  3. Open your favorite browser and type in the following URL: http://localhost:8080
  4. You will now see Resin's Default Home Page

Part II: Configuring Resin to Serve PHP Pages

  1. Cut and paste the "web.xml" into your favorite text editor.
  2. Save the file into c:\resin-3.0.14\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF (NB: if you use Notepad, then be careful to either save as "all files" or just put the file name in double quotes. IE: "web.xml").
  3. Cut and paste the "HelloWorld.php" into your text editor.
  4. Save the file into C:\resin-3.0.14\webapps\ROOT (NB: as above, if you use Notepad, then be careful to either save as "all files" or just put the file name in double quotes. IE: "HelloWorld.php").
  5. Open your favorite browser and type in the following URL: http://localhost:8080/HelloWorld.php.

web.xml

<web-app xmlns="http://caucho.com/ns/resin">
  <servlet-mapping url-pattern="*.php"
                   servlet-class="com.caucho.php.servlet.PhpServlet">
    <init compile="false"/>
  </servlet-mapping>
</web-app>

HelloWorld.php

<?php
  echo "Hello World";
?>
