[Webware-discuss] Getting Webware running on Mac OS X

[Douglas B. <douglas.burchard@DouglasBurchard.com>]

First post, have only been lurking about 12 days...

I've been stymied trying to get Webware/WebKit/mod_webkit to work on a 
Mac OS X 10.3.2 machine. Everything seems to load okay, so either I'm 
missing something really obvious, or something is interfering with the 
works. Here's what I've done:

Downloaded Webware 0.8.1 from <http://webware.sourceforge.net/>. Placed 
the resulting folder in my Applications directory. Ran the install 
files:

	$ cd /Applications/Webware/
	$ python install.py -v
	$ cd /Applications/Webware/WebKit/Adapters/mod_webkit/
	$ sudo make install

Added the following directives to httpd.conf (LoadModule and AddModule 
were added automatically):

	AddType text/psp .psp
	AddHandler psp-handler .psp

	<Location /wk>
		WKServer localhost 8086
		SetHandler webkit-handler
	</Location>

Restarted Apache and launched the AppServer with:

	$ apachectl graceful
	$ cd /Applications/Webware/WebKit/
	$ sudo ./AppServer &

When I point my browser to http://localhost/wk (or any variant I can 
think of like /wk/, /wk/Admin, /wk/Examples, etc.) I get a standard 
Apache 404 error.

A port scan shows port 8086 (the AppServer port) open. I've read, and 
re-read, the Webware/WebKit/mod_webkit docs, along with the results of 
several Google searches, and haven't hit upon what I'm missing.

Any pointers to help me locate what are most likely gaps in my 
knowledge will be greatly appreciated.
