help! (newbie) can't get hello world working on GAE

[MathewFrank]

Hi guys - really need a hand here. I expect this error is something basic I am getting wrong. I know only a little about java and a lot about PHP.

I have a large project - a game server - I want to run on this but stumped at just getting Quercus to run in Google App Engine (local mode).

I followed the wiki instructions, but there was some missing information (the config that tells Java that php files are a resource) so I got some info from the youtube video.

THANKS in advance!

When I call a php file I get the following in a 500 error:

java.security.AccessControlException: access denied ("java.lang.RuntimePermission" "modifyThreadGroup")
	at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
	at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
	at java.lang.SecurityManager.checkPermission(Unknown Source)

	at java.lang.ThreadGroup.checkAccess(Unknown Source)
	at java.lang.Thread.init(Unknown Source)

I am running GAE local debug mode in Eclipse Java EE IDE - Indigo SR1. I have the quercus plugin.

This is my web.xml

and this is my appengine-web.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<appengine-web-app xmlns="http://appengine.google.com/ns/1.0">

  </static-files>
  <resource-files>
  	<include path="/**.php" />
  </resource-files>
 
</appengine-web-app>

and this is the phpinfo.php file:

PHP Code:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

Finally this is my debug log file - up to the first failed request

There had been a bug raised for this: http://bugs.caucho.com/view.php?id=4889

It effects recent versions of Quercus.

Till its fixed use version resin-4.0.22 or earlier.
