Thread: [Cppcms-users] cppcms_run not accepting document root configuration switch

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 422-6466

Hi -- I want to serve public files from the public/ directory in my app.

So, for instance, my main stylesheet would be at
public/stylesheets/main.css, and I link to it in my view like so:
  <link href="/stylesheets/main.css" rel="Stylesheet" type="text/css">

However, when I start cppcms_run like so:
  sudo cppcms_run -r public app -c config/cucumber-config.js

and go to the browser, it doesn't find the stylesheet. The same happens if
I try to specify the folder like "public/" or "./public".
If I copy the contents of the public directory to the root directory, and
run cppcms_run without the document root switch, everything works.
It also works if I link to the subfolders in public from the root directory.
However, if I then try to specify the -r option, these stop working again.
So the -r option is obviously doing something, but not what I would expect
it to do.
Can anybody please advise me as to what I'm doing wrong?
Thanks very much,
   Doug.
