Quercus is implemented primarily as a servlet and it will run in any application server including Tomcat.

Contents

Requirements

  1. Java 1.5 or higher
  2. Quercus WAR download at http://quercus.caucho.com

Optional

  1. MySQL Connector/J Driver
  2. Java Mail (javax.mail jar)

Quick start

The Quercus WAR is ready to run on Tomcat by placing it inside Tomcat's webapps directory.

The Quercus servlet is just a plain servlet and it is configured in the web.xml.

web.xml

<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
     http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
   version="2.5">

  <display-name>Quercus on Tomcat</display-name>
  
  <servlet>
     <servlet-name>Quercus Servlet</servlet-name>
     <servlet-class>com.caucho.quercus.servlet.QuercusServlet</servlet-class>
  </servlet>
 
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Quercus Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.php</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
 
  <welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>index.php</welcome-file>
  </welcome-file-list>

</web-app>

Compilation

Quercus can compile PHP files down to Java bytecodes for faster performance. However, this feature was only available when Quercus was running inside Resin. Since 4.0.1, this constraint no longer exists and Quercus compilation is now available to all application servers including Tomcat. A valid license is required.

Configuration

Quercus compilation requires a license. In the web.xml, you will need to specify the directory where the license is located:

<web-app xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee"
   xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
   xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee
     http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/javaee/web-app_2_5.xsd"
   version="2.5">

  <display-name>Quercus on Tomcat</display-name>
  
  <servlet>
     <servlet-name>Quercus Servlet</servlet-name>
     <servlet-class>com.caucho.quercus.servlet.QuercusServlet</servlet-class>
     <init-param>
       <param-name>license-directory</param-name>
       <param-value>WEB-INF/licenses</param-value>
     </init-param>
  </servlet>
 
  <servlet-mapping>
    <servlet-name>Quercus Servlet</servlet-name>
    <url-pattern>*.php</url-pattern>
  </servlet-mapping>
 
  <welcome-file-list>
    <welcome-file>index.php</welcome-file>
  </welcome-file-list>

</web-app>

Quercus will place the compiled files in WEB-INF/work.
