使用php连接erlang应用程序

Question

I have a website built with PHP. I have an Erlang application running as a daemon on the same server. I need to call functions on the Erlang application from PHP and get back the result.

I've found PHP/Erlang and over PHP modules but I can't install a PHP module on this server, I can only use PHP code.

The only way I know to solve it is run an Erlang web server locally that the PHP will be able to talk to.

Is there a better way to solve it? If using a httpd server is the best way, what Erlang server should I use? It should be as light as possible and doesn't need features like SSL and doesn't need to handle large load.

Thanks
