Hello, A quick sanity check from tclhttpd users would be appreciated.. We have developed a web-db, data entry app that uses tclhttpd to "proxy" read/writes to a Metakit db, in-process; not as a cgi call. We have about 10 users that use the db, most of the time, 1-3 users might be reading/writing at the same time.... My question is: I am aware that metakit is basically a single user db, but as I said, it is run under tclhttpd.. Is there any potential problem in using this approach. As much as I understand, "tclhttpd" is my "single user", and that read/writes are sequential/serialized, the equivalent of opening a console and playing with the mk db... We are running single threaded tclkit, with the stripped down tclhttpdmin.kit for the web-server, on a debian3 box I discussed this approach w/ JCW, and he seems to feel that this approach should not create any mk problems, but want to run this by this list. A few key points about the app. 1. A .tclaccess file permits access to the db 2. From then on, ncgi package is used for user_id and all form variables 3. The whole app uses self-posting .tml pages, with Doc_Redirects to the next page... regards and thanx in advance, nicolas boretos |
