[tbnl-devel] installing mod_lisp2 + tbnl on mepis(debian)
by Jason Wang 19 Mar '05

19 Mar '05

hi (Again), i have just installed CMUCL + Slime on mepis (heavily based on debian).. i just found out that i have no idea how to install mod_lisp2, i know i have apache2 working, since if i go to http://localhost/, the default page will show up.. but i can't seem to find the httpd.conf anywhere, only the apache 1.3 httpd.conf can be found. I only found httpd.conf in /etc/apache2/ that says the following: # This is here for backwards compatability reasons and to support # installing 3rd party modules directly via apxs2, rather than # through the /etc/apache2/mods-{available,enabled} mechanism. # #LoadModule mod_placeholder /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_placeholder.so prob the right place is in the new apache2.conf?? though i can't find a place to add modules as directed on the offical install guide.. then there is apxs -i -c mod_lisp-2.35.c not working.. it says bash cannot find the command.. i have no idea what's wrong :| oh yah, one more thing, where do you put the website files? i can't find htdocs folder.. thanks alot for all your help :D Jason -- www.programer.name - my own personal blog : )

[tbnl-devel] Session cookie should be set for path=/
by Stefan Scholl 17 Mar '05

17 Mar '05

Hi! I was hunting a bug. The session cookie was missing on all pages other than the originating page. Then I've looked for the internal representation of the Cookie. My Firefox has stored it with a path value equal to the originating page. I've checke some websites which use session cookies, too. One PHP site has a "path=/" in the Set-Cookie line of the response header. RFC 2109 says about Set-Cookie: Path Defaults to the path of the request URL that generated the Set-Cookie response, up to, but not including, the right-most /. So that's the correct behavior of my browser. For sessions the path should be set to "/" by the server. In session.lisp, function start-session (set-cookie *session-cookie-name* :value (session-cookie-value session)) changed to (set-cookie *session-cookie-name* :value (session-cookie-value session) :path "/") Regards, Stefan

[tbnl-devel] Another patch to add a non-araneida HTTP header parser
by Bob Hutchison 16 Mar '05

16 Mar '05

Hi, Here is a patch that will modify TBNL so that it no longer needs Araneida to work stand-alone. It is pretty simple. You'll be wanting to look at read-http-request and read-http-headers in modlisp.lisp Cheers, Bob ---- Bob Hutchison -- blogs at <http://www.recursive.ca/hutch/> Recursive Design Inc. -- <http://www.recursive.ca/>

[tbnl-devel] Patches and example for running TBNL and Araneida together
by Bob Hutchison 16 Mar '05

16 Mar '05

Hi, I've attached patches for both Araneida and TBNL to this message. Sorry for the cross-posting but there is some co-ordination required here and I thought this would be a good way to do it. I've included this message the text from a README file that is part of the tgz file I've attached. Unfortunately there is a really *nasty* bug with the browser->tbnl connection -- it consumes about 250k of memory for every access. I cannot see the problem, and I'm looking for help :-) It appears to be completely stable for browser->araneida->tbnl (tested for 100's of thousands of hits). I don't know how the tbnl-araneida package with the example should be distributed. I'm sure this description is too brief, I'll answer what questions I can. I hope you find this useful. Cheers, Bob -------- Some changes have been made to allow TBNL to be used with Araneida. In particular, it is now possible to use Araneida as a server to TBNL handlers and it is possible to send HTTP requests directly to the TBNL socket (in effect by-passing Araneida). This means that the following connections are possible *simultaneously* browser->apache->araneida browser->apache->araneida->tbnl (NEW) browser->apache->mod_lisp->tbnl browser->araneida browser->araneida->tbnl (NEW) browser->tbnl (NEW) There is a package, tbnl-araneida, that shows how this works. In Summary... To connect directly to TBNL, all that is required is that araneida is compiled and loaded *before* tbnl is compiled and loaded. (There is conditionally compiled code in TBNL). To connect to TBNL through Araneida, use the the Araneida handler -- tbnl-araneida-handler -- provided for this purpose. Note that in both cases the TBNL *dispatch-table* must be set up as you normally would when using TBNL. The sense of the installed Araneida handler changes slightly to a url prefix mapper to TBNL (which further refines the request using the *dispatch-table*). -------- ---- Bob Hutchison -- blogs at <http://www.recursive.ca/hutch/> Recursive Design Inc. -- <http://www.recursive.ca/>

[tbnl-devel] Problem with file uploads
by ocorrain＠yahoo.com 15 Mar '05

15 Mar '05

Hi-- I'm using tbnl to run a site (educational in purpose), which will be rich in texts and images. I want people with the appropriate privileges to be able to upload images to the server, where various incantations will be performed to ensure that the images are formatted correctly for the site. However, I seem to be running into a problem with either mod lisp or tbnl, for images >=~1MB. When I try to upload an image of this site, an internal server error is returned after a few seconds, and the converted image (using imagemagick) appears in the thumbnail gallery with a portion of the bottom shown in grey, as if the image did not upload completely to the server. Is there some configurable upper limit to the size of file uploads, or can someone point me to the likely source of the problem? regards -- Tiarnán

[tbnl-devel] Running TBNL Standalone
by Bob Hutchison 14 Mar '05

14 Mar '05

Hi, Has anybody thought of how TBNL might be run without an apache server or mod_lisp involved? Why? I've got an application that would normally be run on a server, but it would be useful to have a standalone demo version. Setting up apache is not the kind of skill I'd expect from the end user of this particular application. It seems to me that somehow getting Araneida talking to TBNL would be one route -- fake mod_lisp in an Araneida handler or replace TBNL's modlisp.lisp would be two possibilities. I suppose aserve and cl-http are also possibilities, but I suspect that Araneida has something more to gain from TBNL.

[tbnl-devel] mod_negotiation and wrong Last-Modified
by Stefan Scholl 12 Mar '05

12 Mar '05

[That's what I've sent to gmane.comp.apache.user today.] Hi! I use Apache 1.3.33 (Gentoo) under Linux 2.6 together with mod_lisp 2.42. mod_lisp is a simple handler which communicates with running Lisp images. This is what I've found today: When setting "Last-Modified" (the handler correctly calls ap_parseHTTPdate(), ap_update_mtime(), and ap_set_last_modified()) the resulting response header has an other date in the "Last-Modified" field. It is the mtime of the DocumentRoot. But only if the mtime of DocumentRoot is _newer_ than the date you want to set. There's no "Last-Modified" in the response header when you don't set it yourself. ap_update_mtime() only updates r->mtime when the supplied time is _newer_. So I've guessed that some other handler sets r->mtime to the DocumentRoot. I've found mod_negotiation. After removing it from the server config the response header had the correct "Last-Modified" date. 2 possible workarounds: 1.) touch the DocumentRoot to an older date 2.) remove mod_negotiation Regards, Stefan -- Web: http://www.no-spoon.de/ -*- IRC: stesch @ freenode
