Re: Configuration file templating
Hi Dave, Its not a module, but I've been working on a generic configuration file templating system to be powered by a variety of data sources, including SQL. You might enjoy checking it out: http://www.hypermagnet.com/ Albert On Mon, Aug 18, 2008 at 11:37 AM, Dave Ingram [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: All, I was wondering if anyone knew of any modules for configuration file templating? I know there are some specific ones for virtual hosting, and I know that there is mod_macro for other templating - but are there any others that exist? The reason I ask is that I'm planning on creating a templating module that works via SQL queries, so that a configuration database can be updated and Apache gracefully restarted to pick up the new configuration. This module (mod_sqltemplate perhaps) would be as simple and flexible as possible, and would of course be released to the community under a BSD-style licence. Obviously, I want to avoid re-inventing the wheel and save myself some work if this has already been done! :-) Thanks, Dave Ingram -- My Blogs: http://www.docunext.com/ http://www.albertlash.com/
Re: Urgent Help required!
If this is indeed a follow-up to my question way back when about mod_rewrite, mod_proxy, and digest authentication, I was unable to find a real solution. What I ended up doing was excluding the digest authentication from proxying, and instead doing it on the forward facing server (the one doing the proxying). This worked because the back-end pages were accessible without authentication, but they used http_auth values to identify users for non-apache based authorization.

Re: Building a module for Apache 2.2
Hi Samuel, I've had decent luck working on Apache modules by reverse engineering some of the core modules as well written examples. I agree more newbie friendly development docs are needed, but at the moment I feel that its not a huge priority. Apache's making some incredible strides with a few of the core modules like rewrite, proxy, dbd, and caching. With those all up to snuff, they'll offer module developers and even more amazing platform to work with, and will be prime time to feed them instructions. Good luck!

I found WHAT I was searching: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/dso.html step 4 Seems that instructions in http://threebit.net/tutorials/apache2_modules/tut1/tutorial1.html are outdated for Apache 2.2 module developing. http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/developer/ maybe a good resource for familiarized people, but not for the crowd. I miss some official Build your first module; kind of Hello world module with the very updated instructions and references. If we don't take care for noob developers, Microsoft will do.

mod proxy, path rewrite, and digest authentication
Hello, Is this the right place to ask about mod proxy and digest auth with a uri change from proxy to back-end server? I'm wondering how to carry the original request-uri through to the digest stage. I spent a few hours working on this and my notes are here: http://www.docunext.com/blog/2008/03/16/digest-versus-proxy/ At the moment, it seems rather impossible, but the rfc suggests some ideas like proxy-authentication and digest-uri getting repeated when a proxy rewrites the path. I also found some comments in the mod_auth_digest.c code that suggests the code is aware that a proxy can change the path. Thanks for any thoughts. -- My Blogs: http://www.docunext.com/ http://www.albertlash.com/
