Fatal error: Class 'xhp_a' not found

[john-f]

I just installed this on a fresh Linode with a basic Ubuntu 9.10 LAMP stack with all the latest dependencies. It built ok, and the module shows up in phpinfo(), but when I try to run any of the example code, I get an error:

Fatal error: Class 'xhp_a' not found in /home/me/public_html/test.php  on line 3

Here's the code I tested with:

Facebook;

I tried running the code through the xhpize tool, and got the following output:

 $href,), array('Facebook',), __FILE__, 3);

Which produces the same "class not found" error.

I had the same issue, you need to include init.php from the 'php_lib' folder into your scripts.

that seems to fix it, thanks. i guess this is supposed to be included automatically?

For what it's worth, I'm having the same issue and including init.php fixed it. Are these files supposed to be copied somewhere specific on the system and linked automatically?

[bshep]

I don't know whats supposed to happen, my guess is they forgot to put it in the documentation. I simply copied them to the root of my project, you can probably put them in one of the include dirs so you can use them from any project.

Correct, you must include the XHP run-time code before using XHP. I updated the introduction to point out this fact.

This information should also be included in the INSTALL file after including extension=xhp.so in your php.ini
