[Webware-discuss] problem: Webware and PHP coexisting on Apache virtualHost

[Matt F. <ma...@da...>]

Hello.

I've got a problem with a webware deployment on an apache virtual host. 
The root of the site is webware, but it's not "letting go" to allow php 
and cgi applications (that are not root) to work. Here's the conf 
fragment and a little more explanation:

--------------------------------------------

<VirtualHost 10.1.0.98>
    <Location />
        WKServer localhost 8087
        SetHandler webkit-handler
    </Location>

    # for global binary resources
    Alias /global/ /data/www/global/
    <Location /global>
        SetHandler apache-core-default-handler
        DefaultType application/octet-stream
    </Location>      

    ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
    <Directory /usr/lib/cgi-bin/>
        Options ExecCGI
        Allow from 10.0.0
    </Directory>

    Alias /webmail /usr/local/share/horde/imp
    <Location /usr/local/share/horde/imp>
        <IfModule libphp4.c>
            php_flag magic_quotes_gpc Off
            php_flag track_vars On
            php_flag session.save_path /var/tmp/imp
            php3_magic_quotes_gpc Off
            php3_track_vars On
        </IfModule>
    </Location>
</VirtualHost>

--------------------------------------------

The webware app works fine; when trying to hit an url like:

http://10.1.0.98/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi it redirects to
http://10.1.0.98/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/ showing the "index" page from the 
root of the webkit application (note trailing slash).

The same thing happens when I hit the php app:
http://10.1.0.98/webmail  redirects to
http://10.1.0.98/webmail/index.php/ with the same index.py page (note 
trailing slash).

ExtraURLPathInfo is NOT turned on in the webkit config. I double-checked 
it by printing out the extra material, and it's "None".

So, this is weird. I can see how I don't have all the little apache 
particulars just right to get this to work, but I'm surprised that 
webkit is happily taking the bogus URL and remapping it somehow to the 
default servlet at http://10.1.0.98/

Another strange thing is that the /global is working just fine; it's 
serving static material through apache.

If I comment out the <Location /> clause that sets up the webkit 
handler, everything works fine (except the webware app, of course).

I have tried setting the handler for these two Locations 
to apache-core-default-handler, cgi-script, etc, all without success.

I also did a low-level dump of the response for http://dalchemy.com/imp/ 
under both conditions:

with appserver turned on:

Any clues?

Thanks.
