]]> Comment on Apache 2.2 + Mongrel on Fedora Core 5 installation guide by Dev::Blog :: Plesk Capistrano, and Mongrel: a love story http://www.bryanthompson.us/2006/08/29/22/#comment-577 Thu, 04 Jan 2007 23:57:43 +0000 http://www.bryanthompson.us/2006/08/29/22/#comment-577 [...] Upgrading requires a few steps. I used Bryan Thompson’s guide to get Apache in, but it turned out I needed to compile it with –enable-openssl. Once that was in, I had to figure out how to handle the server config. Plesk likes to overwrite /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf a lot, and it keeps its virtual server config info (with other files) in /etc/httpd/conf.d. I didn’t care much about the non-virtual stuff - I can set that up myself, so I kept httpd.conf in its new /usr/local/apache2/conf directory and added an Include /etc/httpd/conf.d/zz010_psa_httpd.conf to keep the one file I wanted in play. I also had to include mod_suexec to keep everything happy. [...] […] Upgrading requires a few steps.

In my browser at least the httpd.conf items in brackets () are not visible in the code block above. Hence the confusion.

Thanks for putting it together! A few minor errata: - Consistent \ for non-terminating lines would be great. I think a few are missing; - The mongrel_rails configuration command has the -c parameter given twice - Where in httpd.conf do the BalancerMember lines go? They cause errors if they're at the root level. - The second symlink command in the Setting Paths section doesn't appear to have a target. Sorry if any of my comments are noob misunderstandings. /afb This is very helpful. Thanks for putting it together! A few minor errata:

The problem is that Apache probably will need to be bounced as well. We switched to mongrel and haven't had any problems, so I suggest at least looking at it, unless you have a reason that forces you to stay with fcgi. With Mongrel you can still use Apache the same way, plus you gain load balancing and some other cool things. Hi Keegan,

Is there any reason you haven't upgraded to the new apache? It looks like my post got munched a little bit during an edit.
