[Catalyst] more description for FAST CGI deployment in catalyst cookbook?
hi guys i am trying to figure out how to bring my app for production. Looked at http://search.cpan.org/dist/Catalyst-Manual/lib/Catalyst/Manual/Cookbook.pod#FastCGI_Deployment and i am just wondering if anyone can add more description for FAST CGI deployment in catalyst cookbook? For example, there's a bunch of configuration in step 2 of FAST CGI deployment (title of 2. Configure your application). The problem I am having here is that there is no mention of WHERE should the configuration should be put in.

You need to show us explicitly what you have tried so far for anyone to be able to point out the error of your ways. At the risk of seeming facetious, I suggest that you obtain the new Catalyst book (http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1430223650 disclaimer: I am the primary author), read chapter 5 on deployment, and once you understand that you can patch the documentation for the benefit of others. This is how I got started writing docs for Catalyst, because I was frustrated that the instructions were not easy and obvious to me, and I needed something I knew I could follow. The book follows the same principle, which is why about a third of it is written by other people. Firstly it means I can safely forget what I already know and look it up instead, and secondly I can stand on the shoulders of people who are taller than me :) and look up what they have to say as well. If you're close to Sydney, Sydney.pm will be having a book launch (where there is a chance of winning a copy), probably on Tuesday the 28th of July. I'll be sure to announce it on this list. ___ List: Catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk Listinfo: http://lists.scsys.co.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/catalyst Searchable archive: http://www.mail-archive.com/catalyst@lists.scsys.co.uk/ Dev site: http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/
Re: [Catalyst] more description for FAST CGI deployment in catalyst cookbook?
Hello Kieren 1) I was just asking where do I put the configuration as per the article. Here's an extract from my prev email. For example, there's a bunch of configuration in step 2 of FAST CGI deployment (title of 2. Configure your application). The problem I am having here is that there is no mention of WHERE should the configuration should be put in. 2) No, I m not in sydney but yes, i am going to look into placing an order through Amazon. Can you suggest a faster way (aside Sydney.pm) to get a copy ? PDF purchase maybe? You need to show us explicitly what you have tried so far for anyone to be able to point out the error of your ways.

Re: [Catalyst] more description for FAST CGI deployment in catalyst cookbook?
Yep, i can agree with that. I do hope someone could write a tute for a specific setup. At least there's something concrete for non-admin savvy people to turn to. thanks On Thu, Jul 16th, 2009 at 9:34 AM, Andrew Rodland arodl...@comcast.net wrote: On Wednesday 15 July 2009 06:23:24 pm kakim...@tpg.com.au wrote: Again, my question is, where do I put the configuration above in? apache.conf ? httpd.conf?

Thanks :) In general you want to be placing your files into /etc/apache2/sites-available and then: sudo a2ensite For one of my fastcgi sites I have a file that looks like: VirtualHost *:80 # usual server stuff for a virtualhost FastCgiServer /path/to/myapp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl -processes 3 -initial-env CATALYST_DEBUG=1 Alias /static /path/to/myapp/root/static # run at the root Alias //path/to/myapp/script/cleavages_fastcgi.pl/ # etc /VirtualHost You'll need either: sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 reload or sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 restart I also have some fastcgi docs for parley; I believe they still work: https://developer.berlios.de/docman/display_doc.php?docid=1838group_id=5999#apache_fastcgi [ http://bit.ly/Parley_fastcgi ] Hopefully that's enough to get you on your way.
