Webware for Python

Hello

I'm sorry if this was asked several times already. I'm a new subscriber and either this list isn't keeping an archive or Sourceforge's mailman is acting up, since trying to access the list archives only produces an error claiming that the list doesn't exist.

The server I'm running is Apache 1.3.27 on Linux 2.4.20 with Python 2.2.3. I want my users to be able to use .psp documents inside their public_html directories, which are served through Apache's mod_userdir. I followed the documentation for how to set up PSP so it's usable "anywhere" (through mod_webkit), but mod_userdir directories seem to confuse the AppServer due to strange paths it doesn't know about.

The following is in my httpd.conf:

	WKServer localhost 8086
	AddType text/psp .psp
	AddHandler psp-handler .psp

.psp files served from the server's DocumentRoot work perfectly, no matter where in the directory structure they are. A .psp like e.g. /home/rca/public_html/foo.psp will always return a 404 error from the WebKit AppServer when accessing http://bar.baz/~rca/foo.psp

I played with the thought of doing something using mod_rewrite to mangle the user agent's .psp requests so they're redirected to a place that the AppServer knows about, but before I try this kind of evil hack I wanted to verify that it is indeed not possible to use mod_userdir in tandem with mod_webkit.

Thanks a lot for any insight you might be able to offer.

Re: [Webware-discuss] .psp support for directories served through mod_userdir on Apache? From: Ian <webware@im...> - 2003-07-10 09:17 Heh, i've been trying to get this working also. Been getting the same problem you are getting, with the appserver returning a 404 page. I havent tried using mod_rewrite yet. ian At 12:38 AM 7/10/2003, you wrote: >Hello > >I'm sorry if this was asked several times already.
