CCVS API Functions [deprecated]
These functions interface the CCVS API, allowing you to work directly with CCVS from your PHP scripts. CCVS is » RedHat's solution to the "middle-man" in credit card processing. It lets you directly address the credit card clearing houses via your *nix box and a modem. Using the CCVS module for PHP, you can process credit cards directly through CCVS via your PHP Scripts. The following references will outline the process.
CCVS has been discontinued by Red Hat and there are no plans to issue further keys or support contracts. Those looking for a replacement can consider » MCVE by Main Street Softworks as a potential replacement. It is similar in design and has documented PHP support!
This extension has been removed from PHP and is no longer available as of PHP 4.3.0. If you want to use credit card processing features you can use MCVE instead.
To enable CCVS Support in PHP, first verify your CCVS installation
directory. You will then need to configure PHP with the --with-ccvs option. If you use this
option without specifying the path to your CCVS installation, PHP
will attempt to look in the default CCVS Install location
(/usr/local/ccvs). If CCVS is in a non-standard location,
run configure with: --with-ccvs=[DIR], where
DIR is the path to your CCVS installation. Please note that CCVS support
requires that DIR/lib and DIR/include exist, and include
cv_api.h under the include directory and
libccvs.a under the lib directory.
Additionally, a ccvsd process will need to be running for the configurations you intend to use in your PHP scripts. You will also need to make sure the PHP Processes are running under the same user as your CCVS was installed as (e.g. if you installed CCVS as user 'ccvs', your PHP processes must run as 'ccvs' as well.)
RedHat has discontinued support for CCVS; however, a slightly outdated manual is still available at » http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/ccvs/.
