Re: [fossil-users] Create a download page for releases hosted by fossil
I figured out myself what caused the problem mentioned in my last post. I'd like to share this information just in case someone else stumbles across it. The problem was: I'm facing a problem now with running fossil using a CGI script using the small web server http://www.sqlite.org/docsrc/artifact/0f78441e2de25641b0. The problem is as follows: I can access the fossil website of my repo using http://localhost/cgi-bin/fossil.cgi but as soon as I try to create e.g. a wiki page I see just a blank page in the web browser (as soon as I entered the name I would like to have for the new wiki page and clicked on "create"). Same is true for ticket generation. When I try the same using "fossil ui" everything works fine. ---> It seems that this behavior was again caused by the chroot jail. For some reason fossil seems to search for the /tmp folder in it's jail and panics if it is not there. After I created a folder "tmp" in the chroot jail everything works as expected. Strange is though that no file or anything is created there. Seems that just this folder must be there. Anyway, my setup now works as I need it.

Re: [fossil-users] Create a download page for releases hosted by fossil
You could make the release package a file in your project. Fossil
would then be able to serve the file the same as it serves any other
project file. However, this will add extraneous data to push/pull
operations.
---> That sounds like a good idea. I'll try this approach as well. It
seems even nicer than having to set up another web server and would keep
things simple. Especially given the fact that I'm facing a problem now
with running fossil using a CGI script. The problem is as follows: I can
access the fossil website of my repo using
http://localhost/cgi-bin/fossil.cgi but as soon as I try to create a
wiki page for example I see just a blank page in the webbrowser (as soon
as I entered the name I would like to have for the new wiki page and
click on "create"). Same is true for ticket generation. When I try the
same using "fossil ui" everything works fine. Could this be something
related to access rights? My setup is now as follows:
I use the simple webserver shown here
http://www.sqlite.org/docsrc/artifact/0f78441e2de25641b0
It is started by xinetd using the following configuration:
cat /etc/xinetd.d/althttp
# default:on
# description: This is the simple althttpd webserver daemon.
service althttpd
{
disable = no
type= UNLISTED
socket_type = stream
port= 80
protocol= tcp
wait= no
user= felix
passenv = PATH
server = /home/felix/ResourceManagement/Website/althttpd
server_args = -logfile althttpd.log
-root /home/felix/ResourceManagement/Website/www -user felix
}
The permissions of the files in the www subdir and especially the fossil
repo seems OK to me:
ll rmc.fossil
-rw-r--r--. 1 felix felix 138240 23. Apr 11:22 rmc.fossil
Any ideas about this?

What distro are you using ? ---> Fedora 13 May be you should specify the "-Bstatic" from the makfile, to be sure > static version of every libs are used. ---> Tried to put this option on the command line before the -lz -lssl -lcrypto but the linker seems to ignore it as the shared libs (libz, libssl, libcrypto and their dependencies) are still linked.

Re: [fossil-users] Create a download page for releases hosted by fossil
True, but the libssl of my distro depends on a whole bunch of other libs. Many of them just offered as .so in the repos. So it was simpler for me to copy the shared libs to the chroot jail. However, if switching off the dependency on libssl for fossil it works with -static.

Re: [fossil-users] Create a download page for releases hosted by fossil
I tried the approach with the small one-file web server suggested in one of the replies to my question and it works fine. Fossil is started via cgi script and I can host all the stuff now using this small webserver. However, it took me a while to figure out that I need to copy all the dependencies (shared libraries) fossil depends on into the file structure accessed by the webserver. Just missed the point that it is a chroot environment and it cannot access any libs which are outside the chroot jail.

Personally, I'd use the wiki for that. If you want to autogenerate a download wiki page, you can do that, too, and then have your script update the Download wiki page.

Re: [fossil-users] Create a download page for releases hosted by fossil
Thanks for your answer. To be more specific: It is no problem to write the download page manually. I don't expect fossil to do this for me. But when I have the download.html file plus the packages/installers/source archives or whatever things I would like to provide to the users: Where should I place them such that I can use the fossil built-in webserver to host them. Where are the files physically located such that the link in the download.html on the fossil website works correctly and points to the file? E.g., when I want to provide files for download using something like an apache webserver I can put the files into /var/www and then I can access them using a webbrowser from anywhere. Is there some location like this which the fossil webserver can use to access files?

Re: [fossil-users] Create a download page for releases hosted by fossil
It looks to me like DRH runs that by hand when he makes a new release and it's not run automatically from the fossil server on a web request.

[fossil-users] Create a download page for releases hosted by fossil
Dear Fossil Experts, first of all I would like to thank you for providing this great software! I was really amazed when I found it. I searched for a simple bug tracking/ticketing solution for a small software project and before I found fossil I played around with some of the "bigger" bug tracking systems such as Bugzilla. Although they have a good HowTo and documentation setting up a webserver and a database server (two things I'm not an expert at) seemed a bit of an overkill. Looking at your nice download page on fossil-scm.org I wondered if it is possible to create such a page in my project as well (preferably automatically using some script). Looking at the fossil directory I found out that you seem to do it somehow using the script mkdownload.tcl. Is there somewhere a HowTo which explains how this can be done?
