We have discussed this issue a couple of times previously. There is
a reason for the current behaviour, actually. The idea is to provide
the server enough information to let it make a decision on how to
manage the connection without needing to read the hard disk.
Personally, I'd use a configuration file like this:
======
DocumentRoot /home/fang/Ruby/WebApps/production/public
Directory / {
Handler scgi {
Server localhost:9999
}
}
Directory /public { Handler file }
Directory /images { Handler file }
Directory /icons {
Handler file
DocumentRoot /usr/share/cherokee/icons/
}
======
The biggest difference is that, in this way, Cherokee always knows
what to do with the requests without accessing the files if it
doesn't need it, and hence, it's much faster.
