Hi Richard,
They didn't installed PECL. Is there a way to installed just PECL and not
overwrite their php configuration?
pecl is a wrapper/package manager for building/installing php extensions.
I believe you can install it by following the guidelines for installing pear:
http://pear.php.net/manual/en/installation.php
you get pecl when pear is installed - although you will need root access to install
it.
then again you don't need to install pecl to build the java extension as such,
although you'll need root access to actually place the extension in the 'right'
place.
I noticed when I went to the PECL link I didn't see a PECL package download,
but I had to search for packages I wanted to install, what am I looking for?
to start with the source of the extension in question.
which is the following as far as I can tell:
http://cvs.php.net/viewvc.cgi/pecl/rpc/java
it looks like you have download it direct from cvs - doesn't seem to be available anywhere
else.
once you have the source, cd to the directory containing it and run the following commands
$> phpize
$> ./configure
$> make
with a bit of luck you'll then have a .so file that is your new extension,
now it a matter moving the .so to a suitable place (if you have root access, you
can run 'make install') and of editing php.ini to load the extension.
hth ... although if your anything like me it won't help until you've sworn at the
output of ./configure and/or make a thousand times ;-)
you might consider the advice on php.net to try using the SOAP extension to
access your java stuff that way instead.
Thanks!

Modifying php.ini doesn't get the Java extension installed.
They have to PECL install Java extension for it to work.
You'll know if they have done that by checking <?php phpinfo();?>
output. It either mentions Java, and it's installed; or it doesn't,
and it's not.
<?php
// get instance of Java class java.lang.System in PHP
$system = new Java('java.lang.System');
You don't have that class to instantiate, because you don't have the
extension installed.
