  • Rivet Root

    From Roderick@21:1/5 to All on Thu Dec 1 16:06:31 2022
    Excuse me, that I ask here, it is perhaps more a question on apache
    than, tcl, but since people here know apache rivet ...

    I do not want to put .rvt and .tcl skripts in the DocumentRoot directory together with html file. I want them in a separated directory, as it is
    the case with cgi scripts, also with a ScriptAlias as with cgi.
    How to configure apache?

    Thanks
    Rod.

    Hi Rod,

    My sites-enabled/...conf file looks like this (some names anonymised):

    Listen 80
    # The http website
    <VirtualHost *:80>
    # SVP 14OCT2022: This will need to be changed to WARN or ERROR.
    LogLevel info
    CustomLog /home/.../logs/access.log combined
    ErrorLog /home/.../logs/error.log
    ServerName name
    ServerAdmin scotty@localhost
    DocumentRoot /home/..../www
    # The main Rivet script
    RivetServerConf ChildInitScript "source /home/.../www/childinit.tcl"
    # All urls to go to the main script.
    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /index.tcl [L]
    <Directory /home/.../www>
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride None
    Require all granted
    </Directory>
    </VirtualHost>


    I keep the two main scripts, childinit.tcl and index.tcl in the .../www directory, and all the other tcl scripts for the website site
    in .../www/lib, in their own directory. I don't put any scripts in any
    other place like /usr/lib/exec/cgi. I don't have any html or other
    files in .../www. All requests go to my index.tcl and it serves the
    content from a database.

    I'm not sure exactly what you want to do, but I hope that helps a
    bit.

    Scott
