Hello list,

Well when Brian Moore said mod_rewrite was voodoo (http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/rewrite/ 
), I was skeptical, but now I believe him! I need some help for what I  
think should be a pretty simple rewrite rule. I am currently trying to  
get this to work initially on my development machine, and I keep  
getting a 404 Not Found message from apache (version 2.2.9).


The rule is supposed to take convert URLs like this :
http://localhost/purl/KieranKelleher

and rewrite them like this (on my dev machine):
http://localhost/cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/wa/PurlAction/purl?p=KieranKelleher

I have added this to the end of my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf just before  
the last 2 includes at the end of the file (other/*.conf and WO  
apache.conf)


IfModule rewrite_module
# rewrite logging
RewriteLog /tmp/rewrite.log

# PURL feature
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/purl/(.*)$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/wa/ 
PurlAction/purl?p=$1

/IfModule

I can confirm that when I restarted apache it creates the /tmp/ 
rewrite.log if it does not exist, however nothing gets written there.


I have studied the docs, the wiki docs and many examples. This looks  
like it should work, but I cannot for the life of me figure out why it  
does not work :-(


Any clues or hints would be appreciated.

Thanks, Kieran

WOWODC West Attendees...

2009-04-16 Thread David LeBer


Hey all,

Last year on the Friday before WOWODC we did an evening tour of  
Alcatraz which was a lot of fun, and I don't think we lost anyone on  
The Rock.


Does anyone feel like doing something similar this year? I'll be  
arriving early afternoon on Friday so I should be settled in SF mid to  
late afternoon.


Anyone have an suggestions?

- Bus tour
- Harbour cruise
- Movie
- Cable Car Museum
- ???

Hi Kieran,

this is what we have in one of our apps. This is on Apache 1.3, though:

Re: [OT] Apache rewrite rule

2009-04-16 Thread Mike Schrag

if you're rewriting to wo instances, you need to make sure the
ordering of your modules is right, too ... in 5.3 (i don't know about
5.4), the order of the modules was wrong -- you have to make
mod_webobjects come before mod_rewrite (iirc).

Re: [OT] Apache rewrite rule

I am using WO 5.3 on leopard with apache 2.2.9. The wo module is  
coming before rewrite module in httpd.conf:
LoadModule WebObjects_module /System/Library/WebObjects/Adaptors/ 
Apache2.2/mod_WebObjects.so

LoadModule rewrite_module libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.so

Further investigation shows that each time I try to access the short  
URL, I see the following error in the apache error_log:
[Thu Apr 16 10:12:15 2009] [error] [client ::1] File does not exist: / 
Library/WebServer/Documents/cgi-bin


So just maybe the rewrite rule is working but the result may be  
conflicting with mod_alias which has a scriptalias entry for the wo  
cgi-bin???


Does that ring any bells with anyone?

Kieran

Re: [OT] Apache rewrite rule

Finally! Searching the apache docs more, I found another option PT,
the passthrough option, that specifically refers to this being needed
for mod_alias or using mod_rewrite with any other modules that do URI-
to-filename mapping or translation.

The final working rewrite rule is:

IfModule rewrite_module
# rewrite logging
RewriteLog /var/log/apache2/rewrite.log

# PURL feature
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/purl/(.*)$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/wa/
PurlAction/purl?p=$1 [PT]

/IfModule

Thanks for the mind-prodding guys.

Now it is working in apache2 on my dev machine. Hopefully apache 1.3
will be similar configuration when I deploy this feature in a few days.

wotaskd password

2009-04-16 Thread Mr. Frank Cobia

I have seen in the documentation that when you set a password in  
JavaMonitor it also sets a password in wotaskd. All the documentation  
I can find says that when wotaskd has a password you have to set the  
password for the Apache adaptor to communicate with wotaskd.  
Unfortunately I cannot find anything about how to set the password for  
the apache adaptor. The only password I can find is for the statistics.


How can I set the password for the apache adaptor to use?

Thanks,
Frank Cobia

Re: [OT] Apache rewrite rule

2009-04-16 Thread Tim Worman


Kieran et al:

I just went through some rewrite stuff although it was more related to  
just getting multiple apps working at different virtual hosts. This  
site has a really nicely done mod_rewrite cheat sheet (PDF):


http://www.addedbytes.com/apache/mod_rewrite-cheat-sheet

Also, after your RewriteLog command you could add:

RewriteLogLevel 9

It does help a little with the debugging. I don't think anything over  
'2' is recommended in deployment but you'll learn a lot by amping it  
up as high as it can go while you're troubleshooting this stuff. Sorry  
if I'm just spewing stuff you already knew about.

The rule is supposed to take convert URLs like this :

and rewrite them like this (on my dev machine):
http://localhost/cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/wa/PurlAction/purl?p=KieranKelleher

I can confirm that when I restarted apache it creates the /tmp/ 
rewrite.log if it does not exist, however nothing gets written  
there.


I have studied the docs, the wiki docs and many examples. This  
looks like it should work, but I cannot for the life of me  
figure out why it does not work :-(


Any clues or hints would be appreciated.

Re: JavaClient offline storage / replication

2009-04-16 Thread Anjo Krank

Heh. The first one has no real mention of conflict resolution in the  
PDF apart from:


More complex conflict resolution strategies can be accomplished by  
using the IDataLoaderFilter

extension point which has access to both old and new data.

and the second says:

• Conflict detector and resolution – Daffodil Replicator offers very  
strong conflict detection and resolution functionalities that allow  
multiple users to send in changes from the workstations  
simultaneously, while ensuring the integrity of the data. paste a  
link to conflict resolution document.


The last part of the sentence is particularly neat :)

Bottom line is you might as well go with the serialized adaptor ops,  
as these do basically what you can by using these packages.

I found it in several of the documents on Apple's website. It is  
basically a warning in every document that deals with deployment,  
wotaskd or JavaMonitor. I have verified that it is true, because I set

connect again.

machine, and I keep getting a 404 Not Found message from  
apache (version 2.2.9).


The rule is supposed to take convert URLs like this :
http://localhost/purl/KieranKelleher

and rewrite them like this (on my dev machine):
http://localhost/cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/wa/PurlAction/purl?p=KieranKelleher

I have added this to the end of my /etc/apache2/httpd.conf just  
before the last 2 includes at the end of the file (other/*.conf  
and WO apache.conf)


IfModule rewrite_module
# rewrite logging
RewriteLog /tmp/rewrite.log

# PURL feature
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule ^/purl/(.*)$ /cgi-bin/WebObjects/cheetah.woa/-52040/ 
wa/PurlAction/purl?p=$1

/IfModule

I can confirm that when I restarted apache it creates the /tmp/ 
rewrite.log if it does not exist, however nothing gets written  
there.


I have studied the docs, the wiki docs and many examples. This  
looks like it should work, but I cannot for the life of me  
figure out why it does not work :-(


Any clues or hints would be appreciated.

Thanks, Kieran

Re: WOWODC West Attendees...

More to the point, the tour is once a day, for a party as large as ten:

Currently we offer one public tour each weekday, by reservation only.
We recommend that you call us as early as possible to make
reservations far in advance so that we may accommodate you and your
party on the day of your choice. You may have up to ten in your party,
depending on the availability of space.

They are booked solid for the months of April/May, so perhaps Tour for
those who can make it, followed by that brew-pup restaurant, as some
Yelp posters recommended the combination.

Re: WOWODC West Attendees...

Damn. The tours are run daily at 11am (2 hours) and all Fridays are
booked in June. 7-8 people would work on the 8th or some other day of
WWDC, but not Friday. Thursdays are bad as well, so sadly its a M-W
possibility right during WWDC.

Re: wotaskd password

On 16-Apr-09, at 2:14 PM, Mr. Frank Cobia wrote:
I found it in several of the documents on Apple's website. It is
basically a warning in every document that deals with deployment,
wotaskd or JavaMonitor. I have verified that it is true, because I
set the password in JavaMonitor and then I could no longer connect
to my app through apache, but when I removed the password I was able
to connect again.

Hey Frank!

Yeah, what I was after was an actual link to where you were reading...
Google seems to have pointed me to one instance. Sure hope it's where
you were looking. :-(

On this page there's a note about direct access to the wotaskd
information is blocked when a password is set: http://developer.apple.com/documentation/WebObjects/Deployment/Deploying_Applications/Deployment/Deployment.html

Specifically, it says:
On password-protected sites, you have to use JavaMonitor to view an
application host’s configuration.

And while this is true for accessing the full information about the
configuration, it's not true about all of it. As I recall, with a
password set, you can still see the configuration information if you
use the URL as it appears on the WOAdaptorInfo page. After all,
that's how the WOAdaptor is getting the information. It should be
something like this and yes, you need to use the entire url to gain
access when the password is set:

appserver.mydomain.ca:1085/WebObjects/wotaskd.woa/wa/woconfig

For what should be obvious reasons, you must do this from a machine
which can connect to the app server. One that is not blocked by say a
firewall as is so common in a deployment situation. When I taught the
deployment course I used to cover this part in extra detail because
it's so useful when there are deployment problems.

Good luck!

Hey Chuck!

That's a good point!  Perhaps Frank is mixing them up?  Either way,  
enabling the WOAdaptorInfo page and turning on adaptor logging are  
vital to tracking down why it's not working!   For example, on that  
solaris problem with Apache2 and Apache2.2, turned out that Apache2.2  
required fqdn for the app servers where as Apache2 did not.  Weird  
shit but then there were multiple virtual hosts and external vs  
internal addresses so were lots of opportunity for confusion.  It was  
resolved by looking at the adaptor logs which clearly show'd the  
problem.
