Uncomment the line that says “ extension=php_curl.dll” by removing the semi-colon.Duplicate “php-development.ini” file and rename it “php.ini” (in your PHP folder from the previous step).Make sure to include CURL support, which is not enabled by default with these instructions.Install PHP on your web server or on your FileMaker Server.This is a two-step process, which (a) uses a non-FileMaker version of PHP, either on the same computer as FileMaker Server, or elsewhere and (b) uses FileMaker Data API to connect to FileMaker Server. Move to separate PHP installation, using REST18 method We haven’t gone through the full upgrade yet with Mac Server – so that may work OK. (note: there is an updated kb article about installing PHP on Windows FMS server) Mac Server users need to edit the nf file manually to match your operating system.Īfter following the Windows instructions, we consistently got PHP errors.Windows Server users should backup a copy of an earlier php folder and put it in the publishing-engine folder.If you’ve already upgraded and soSIMPLE has broken, it’s certainly worth trying these instructions. There are instructions to keep PHP running on FileMaker Server, but we didn’t have much luck with the Windows process. Follow instructions on the FileMaker Server 19.2.1 release notes to re-enable PHP It does, however, require changing the soSIMPLE Calendar Action script and the soS Load Events scripts. The new soSIMPLE Calendar Add-on works similarly to the server-powered product, but doesn’t require ANY server-powered technology. Everything works as expected in previous versions of FileMaker Server. But this is, of course, the easiest way avoid this issue. Don’t upgrade your server to 19.2.1ĭon’t get us wrong – we’re big proponents of keeping software current for both security and feature reasons. Please note, version 4.1 or greater of soSIMPLE Calendar Server-Powered is required for FileMaker 19 (or you can use our FileMaker 19 soSIMPLE Calendar Add-On, which side-steps all of these issues). So even if you choose to use the FileMaker Data API, you still need to run PHP somewhere in order to use the Server-powered Calendar.

FileMaker PHP class file with FileMaker PHP API.PHP is integral to soSIMPLE Server-powered Calendar, even if you use our REST method to fetch data. This FileMaker Server update removes PHP functionality from Windows servers, and standard configuration breaks PHP functionality on Mac servers. Please make sure you read this before installing or upgrading to FileMaker 19.2.1. This is an important notice to our soSIMPLE Server-Powered customers.
