php-phantomjs: Problems with executing in windows environment

Hello,

I encountered an error when executing my codes in XAMPP (Windows) enviornment, while there was no error at all on my ubuntu.

The error was like this:

Uncaught exception 'JonnyW\PhantomJs\Exception\ProcedureFailedException' with message 'Error when executing PhantomJs procedure "default" - File does not exist or is not executable: 

C:/xampp/htdocs/phantom/bin/phantomloader' in C:\xampp\htdocs\phantom\vendor\jonnyw\php-phantomjs\src\JonnyW\PhantomJs\Procedure\Procedure.php:132 Stack trace: #0 

C:\xampp\htdocs\phantom\vendor\jonnyw\php-phantomjs\src\JonnyW\PhantomJs\Client.php(171): JonnyW\PhantomJs\Procedure\Procedure->run(Object(JonnyW\PhantomJs\Client), Object(JonnyW\PhantomJs\Message\Request), Object(JonnyW\PhantomJs\Message\Response)) #1 

C:\xampp\htdocs\phantom\functions_new.php(20): JonnyW\PhantomJs\Client->send(Object(JonnyW\PhantomJs\Message\Request), Object(JonnyW\PhantomJs\Message\Response)) #2 C:\xampp\htdocs\phantom\oneitem_ky.php(174): argos('012/803') #3 {main} thrown in C:\xampp\htdocs\phantom\vendor\jonnyw\php-phantomjs\src\JonnyW\PhantomJs\Procedure\Procedure.php on line 132

What I did:

Used composer to install the dependencies
Changed Client.php under vender\jonnyw\php-phantomjs\src\JonnyW\PhantomJs line 110, the value of $this->phantomJs = ‘C:/xampp/htdocs/phantom/bin/phantomjs.exe’;
Changed Client.php under vender\jonnyw\php-phantomjs\src\JonnyW\PhantomJs line 111, the value of $this->phantomLoader = ‘C:/xampp/htdocs/phantom/bin/phantomloader’;

I also tried changing $this->phantomLoader = ‘C:/xampp/htdocs/phantom/bin/phantomloader.bat’, but still did not work out.

Any ideas?

Thanks.

This is a pretty straightforward bug, that can be fixed easily. With composer, you can use the following workaround (on Windows) in the meantime:

$client = Client::getInstance();
$client->getEngine()->setPath(__DIR__ . '\bin\phantomjs.exe');

try this one on windows:

vendor/…/PhantomJs/Client.php

update getCommand() to public function getCommand() { $phantomJs = $this->getPhantomJs(); $phantomLoader = $this->getPhantomLoader();

    $this->validateExecutable($phantomJs);

    $options = $this->getOptions();

    if ($this->debug) {
        array_push($options, '--debug=true');
    }

    return sprintf('%s %s', $phantomJs, implode(' ', $options)); // deleted phantomloader part
}

Your test.php file

require_once(‘vendor/autoload.php’);//make sure this path is correct use JonnyW\PhantomJs\Client;

$client = Client::getInstance(); $client->setPhantomJs(DIR.‘/bin/phantomjs.exe’); // DIR is needed
