  freebsd and chartdirector php
Posted by pisikesipelgas on Jun-29-2022 11:41
Hi,
I did get it (unlicensed CD7) running on linux, however all my home servers are bsd based.
When using freebsd, I did get "libc.so missing (or not found)" error, which makes me think that it is not possible to run it "natively" on freebsd, but through some emulation or something.
So my question: is there a way to use CD7 with FreeBSD instead of linux? Is the FreeBSD supported at all?

Thank You!

Hi pisikesipelgas,

Unluckily, CD7 no longer support FreeBSD.

FreeBSD documentation (https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/linuxemu/) seems to suggest it can run Linux executables. However, for PHP, ChartDirector is just a shared object. The main executable is PHP or Apache (depending on which type of PHP is used - CGI/FastCGI or mod_php). It means even if FreeBSD can run Linux executable, the PHP needs to be the Linux executable that loads CD7.

Regards
Peter Kwan
