[Catalyst] Re: Multiple FastCGI app servers with Apache2
* Tobias Kremer [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2007-08-02 16:45]: Does anyone know if it's possible to distribute requests to multiple external FastCGI servers with Apache2 + mod_fastcgi similar to the round-robin load-balancing approach lighttpd provides? You just made me look for mod_proxy_fcgi again… a pity that the effort seems to have stalled and died. It would have provided FastCGI deployments with all the knobs and twiddles for load balancing that mod_proxy offers.

[Catalyst] Ajax
Hi, Which of the Ajax modules do you recommend using in a Catalyst app? I am interested especially to know which of them work better with Template-Toolkit and DBIx::Class. For the moment I am not interested in the most advanced, but in the most simple to use by someone that doesn't know Javascript very well. Thank you.

Re: [Catalyst] Ajax
Hi! I too think jQuery is the most interesting, as it's lightweight and the API quite elegant and easy to learn. The documentation is OK as well. If you need complex widgets, there are the plugins. However, for a really complex UI you'll probably better off with ExtJS of Dojo.

This is possible (as I have done the same) by adding multiple instances of: FastCgiExternalServer /path/to/MyApp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl -host 127.0.0.1:55901 to the apache2 config file. Also make sure you use different ports or sockets. I already tried that and it gives me: FastCgiExternalServer: redefinition of previously defined class /srv/myapp.fcgi. I'm using mod_fastcgi-SNAP-0404142202 with Apache 2.0.59 both compiled from source. Do you have each FastCgiExternalServer directive pointing to a different instance of the application. E.g.

RE: [Catalyst] Ajax
Zitat von Hartmaier Alexander [EMAIL PROTECTED]: Hi Octavian! They all have nothing to do with either the template language or the web framework. I started using Dojo for some nice fading effects and a date selector and imho the docs are ok. From the moment I started using jQuery I never looked back at the other JS libraries out there. I think perl people will feel right at home with its API and concepts and it never stopped to amaze me how easy and intuitively things can be done. For me, Dojo comes in second with Prototype + Scriptaculous definitely being the worst alternative although you'll get a lot of support as it became the de facto standard. Other than that it's a giant hack :) --Tobias ___ List: Catalyst@lists.rawmode.org Listinfo: http://lists.rawmode.org/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.rawmode.org/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
