Re: Web serving on OS X Server

Note, by the way, that while my server is running El Capitan my development system is running Sierra. I also use this technique when locally testing changes, proxying through Apache. The changes I described still work fine in the most current version of the OS (10.12.5) and the server app

LDAP user validation

Can someone please help me understand the mechanisms I would use if I wanted to authenticate a user/password combination against an LDAP server? Do I... 1) use the user-supplied username/password to log into the LDAP server and see if the login works? or 2) use a system username/password to

Re: Web serving on OS X Server

Lee, I’ve done this for multiple sites (domains) accessing a 4D instance. I’ve done it through several OS versions; currently my server’s running El Capitan (10.11.8) Here’s a step by step guide for a domain I’ll call “mydomain.com ”. 1) Set up the sites with the

Re: Web serving on OS X Server

The easy way is to set up a webapp plist, and then just turn on that webapp for the appropriate domain (website). Here’s a sample plist. You should be able to mostly use the httpd.conf options you use behind Apache normally. http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd;>

HTTP Get when a domain name returns multiple IP addresses

Hi, we’re running a serverless API using Amazon Lambda, and 4D seems to fail on the DNS lookup as it returns multiple IP addesses A dig gives you api.universalcodes.msupply.org.nz. 25 IN A 52.84.207.226 api.universalcodes.msupply.org.nz. 25 IN A 52.84.207.186

Web serving on OS X Server

I've setup apache as a front end to 4D on 'regular' macs without issue. But now I need to do it on a Mac running the Server software and I'm not clear where/how to configure that and my google fu is failing me. Has anyone done that and can you point to directions? I'd settle for having 4D serve

Re: Web serving on OS X Server

Ive not setup apache - but what I was trying to get to is.. whatever you have done in the past for apache (and maybe I mis-read your question), just do that, the 'server' part should not make anything change. On Fri, 9 Jun 2017 12:03:05 -0700, Lee Hinde via 4D_Tech wrote: > Correct, I need

RE: Web serving on OS X Server

Lee - I personally had no success in getting the new version of OS X Server to easily handle a reverse proxy to 4D’s port 8080 or 8443. Snow Leopard Server (SLS 10.6.8) is the last version that included this granular feature and a simple interface to set things up with. As of yet, I have

So, I have Mac-based 4D v15 desktop application that’s supporting about 10 users via client/server on a local LAN. There is a need to create a public-facing web presence that would allow access to the data managed by 4D (254 GBs of externally referenced TIFFs). The client wants to sell access

Re: 4D Web Store Approach...

I recently completed a similar project where I needed to serve over 300gb of pdfs managed by 4D. I used a Xojo web app as the front end web server. With 4D listening on a port not accessible from the outside, Xojo passes search criteria as an http request via local host to 4D and 4D returns via

Hi John; Thanks for the links! I'm punting for now and found this to just turn off the Apple Apache httpd instances: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/7247358?tstart=0 This has 4D doing all the serving, which i'm not keen on, especially with this app which is graphic intensive. I'm
