Getting Drupal 7 (almost) running on HHVM

In analogy to the article of the hiphop-php.com site, I'll try to give you a tutorial on how to run Drupal on HHVM

Installing HHVM

For the sake of this case-study, I used a Vagrant Ubuntu “Precise” 12.04 as my linux distribution. Also, to not screw up my local development machine, I'll be using disposable virtual boxes.

Installing VirtualBox

https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads Download and install the appropriate version of VirtualBox for your machine

Installing Vagrant

http://vagrantup.com/ Download and install the appropriate version of Vagrant for your machine

Downloading and Installing Precise64

cd ~/
git clone --recursive --branch 7.x-1.x http://git.drupal.org/project/vagrant.git
cd vagrant
vagrant box add base http://files.vagrantup.com/precise64.box
vagrant up
sudo nano /etc/hosts
# add 
# 33.33.33.10        drupal.vbox.local dev-site.vbox.local
vagrant ssh
# Update our packages
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
exit
# After updates, run chef again
vagrant provision

Installing hiphop-php

cd ~/vagrant
vagrant ssh
sudo add-apt-repository "deb http://dl.hiphop-php.com/ubuntu precise main"
# no sources are present in hiphops repository, so remove them
sudo add-apt-repository --remove "deb-src http://dl.hiphop-php.com/ubuntu"
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install hiphop-php -y --force-yes
exit

Create a config file

cd ~/vagrant
vagrant ssh
sudo mkdir /var/log/hhvm
sudo chmod 777 /var/log/hhvm/
sudo nano /etc/hhvm.hdf

Add the following snippet and save the file (/etc/hhvm.hdf)

Server {
  Port = 8000
  SourceRoot = /vagrant/public/drupal.vbox.local/www/
}
 
Eval {
  Jit = true
}
Log {
  Level = Error
  UseLogFile = true
  File = /var/log/hhvm/error.log
  Access {
    * {
      File = /var/log/hhvm/access.log
      Format = %h %l %u %t \"%r\" %>s %b
    }
  }
}
 
VirtualHost {
  * {
    Pattern = .*
    RewriteRules {
      dirindex {
        pattern = ^/(.*)/$
        to = $1/index.php
        qsa = true
      }
    }
  }
}
 
StaticFile {
  FilesMatch {
    * {
      pattern = .*\.(dll|exe)
      headers {
        * = Content-Disposition: attachment
      }
    }
  }
  Extensions {
    css = text/css
    gif = image/gif
    html = text/html
    jpe = image/jpeg
    jpeg = image/jpeg
    jpg = image/jpeg
    png = image/png
    tif = image/tiff
    tiff = image/tiff
    txt = text/plain
  }
}

Start the webserver

cd ~/vagrant
vagrant ssh
# Adding some debug modes
sudo hhvm --config /etc/hhvm.hdf --user vagrant --mode daemon -v "Log.Level=Verbose" -v "Log.NoSilencer=on" -v "Log.Header=on"
tail -f /var/log/hhvm/error.log

Go to http://drupal.vbox.local:8000/index.php in your browser
You can see a couple of errors in the terminal but none of them really are significant.

So I suppose HHVM is not ready for PDO yet? I'd appreciate more input from people that are more knowledgable.

I think this is where my adventure with HHVM ends for now :-)

Hey there! I'm the person at Facebook who does the OSS maintenance for HipHop, and it's great to see you trying us out. ((Not so great to see that you got a segfault though)).

I'm going to try reproducing the segfault you're getting and will let you know what I find. Hopefully it's a minor problem. :)

Hey guys,

Hey guys,

Worked through the wordpress example myself, and finally got it working. Not sure if you guys came across this:
http://php.webtutor.pl/en/2011/05/19/drupal-7-download-hiphop-for-phps-compatible-source-codes/

While it seems to have been compiled with a deprecated version of hiphop, there is a patch that theoretically works with Drupal 7.4? I was unable to get it working, but think maybe we could put together a vagrant box that does all the manual setup, and that might help us get on the same page with sorting this out?

And Sara Goleman, came across your blog while creeping on the project in general, and just wanted to say that you're awesome in all respects.

Any help would be really

On 29 Sep 2013, Jeroen Beerstra said...

Seems it now works a lot better, the problem now is stream_wrappers:

They seem to register but hhvm complains about not being able to create <your webroot>/public, that should translate to the public files dir.

Hey Nick, thanks for documenting this.
Tried this and didn't work (yet). Just saw that it's from 2012.
HHVM > 3.0.0 no longer supports built-in server, I'll try with FastCGI instead.
