Re: [midgard] new Midgard site
Paul Newby wrote: Finally had the time to go check it out properly. http://www.commentext.org. There's a demo forum and an associated document, and some linking utilities to promote interchange between the two. The forum provides a familiar vehicle for dialog, and the linked document is intended to make it easier to retain and focus the information that comes up in the dialog in a structured format. The document is set up so that anyone can create new versions; however, existing versions are not affected and there are editorial hooks available to allow versions to be stamped as 'approved' by editors/administrators. Such approval would usefully be employed to steer the content of the document and would help to channel the dialog in the forum. I _love_ this! Ye gods! Lots of challenging issues to resolve, particularly in the area of linking between the forum and document verisons, and how these links should be propagated into new versions; there are also quite a few usability issues to address. Any comments or suggestions from anyone who tries the demo would be greatly appreciated. Sure, there's always room for improvement, but there's loads of potential here. Good work, man. I think I heard an earlier comment for SGML presentation format, and I'd love that a lot. Emile

I wouldn't go about claiming to be SGML-literate, but the main issue would be to keep the entries SGML safe, or make them to be so. The rest would probably only mean framing in SGML tags.

Re: [midgard] 404error - too many connections with 2 users?
Martin Mucha wrote: First we had the Midgard configuration in the initial Apache configuration and therefore the MidgardEngine turned on for all virtual hosts.

The Apache Error-Logfile shows: [crit] Midgard: Too many connections Although we are only two persons testing (no, we are not workin too hard ;-) What went wrong with our configuration? At the moment each apache child handler opens a connection to the database for each MidgardDatabase directive. With 5 distinct databases and let's say a conservative 50 handlers max, that's still 250 possbile connections. Put a higher connection setting in /etc/my.cnf.

Re: [midgard] attachments / Blob usage
Tarjei Huse wrote:
- get it into the blob dir
What are you thinking about? Getting into a blobdir to send a blob (for
instance in an IMG tag)?
I thought of making code for serving blobs on every page, but found it to
bothersome. Instead I created a subpage with the following in "code-init" :
?
if ($argc == 1) {
mgd_serve_attachment($argv[0]);
exit;
}
This is exactly how I would do it in general. Note that page blobs need
no
extra work -- they get served by mod_midgard without need for any
supporting PHP coding. So if /some/page has an attachment named
image.gif,
/some/page/image.gif will get sent out when requested without
midgard-php
even being activated.

midgard and midgard-dev now semi-moderated
Hi all, I've just changed the mailing lists to semi-moderated. If all is well, that would mean that all subscribers can post as normal, and non-subscribers mail will be routed to the moderators (me, currently). The moderators will have the option to forward the message to the list as-is, reply to the person, or drop the message. Co-moderators would be most welcome; I do ask that you read your mail regularly, and are willing to track down spammers and maim them. If that's a bit too much for you, I'll settle for tracking down their provider and lodging a complaint. Tracking down (the ISP) is pretty easy, and if necesary I can explain. The relevant part of the ezmlm manual, so you know what happens, is below. Remember, this all does not apply to subscribers. Emile == ezmlm lists may be set up with message moderation. When ezmlm receives a message for the list, it saves it, sends a moderation request with the message enclosed to the moderator(s). The subject of moderation request is ``MODERATE for ...''. If you would like to approve the message, just reply to the ``Reply-To:'' address of the moderation request. Usually, this is the default for the ``reply'' function of your mail program. Alternatively, click on the ``accept'' address or copy and paste it into the ``To:'' field of a new message. To reject the message, reply to the ''From:'' address, click on the ``reject'' address, or copy and paste the ``reject'' address into the ``To:'' field of a new message. You can also just replace the text ``accept'' in the accept address with ``reject''. Optionally, type a comment between two lines starting with ``%%%''. The sender of the message will receive a message from ezmlm explaining that the message was rejected. If you typed a comment, it will be put into the rejection notice. The third alternative is to ignore the request. If no moderator has replied within 5 days, the message is returned to the sender with an explanation. The owner can also set up the list so that ignored posts are silently removed, which may be more suitable for some lists. To minimize mail to busy moderators, ezmlm does not confirm moderator actions. More than one moderator may reply. The message will not be duplicated. The first valid reply that is received will decide the fate of the message. ezmlm will send an error message only if a later reply requests an action different from the one already taken. Thus, if you decide to accept the message, but another moderator has already rejected it, ezmlm will notify you. If instead the message had been previously accepted, ezmlm would log your request, but it will not send you a notification. If a message is send by a moderator, it is sent for approval to that moderator only. The approval is necessary since anyone can claim to be a moderator, but only the moderator will be able to receive the moderation request. This feature is very useful for announcement lists where any moderator can make an announcement without bothering the others, while at the same time non-moderators cannot post without permission.

Re: [midgard] I need a theory of operation document
Paul Gillingwater wrote:
One last question: Can I set the style for a page dynamically somehow? I
have an active page of the form /topic/, which uses one style,
and the pages of the form /topic/article123.html should use another
style. Currently I have merged both styles into one style document and I
select the appropiate one with an "if ($flag) {" construction, but this
does not feel right. I would rather like to set the style explicitely
in the piece of code where I handle the argv[] arguments.
Can't be done in 1.4. The style is collected as the first part of the
page construction process, long before any code is actually executed.
The PHP4 implementation probably will be able to do this though, now
that I think of it. Anyway, what you could do to get this effect is to
have a page /topic/, active or otherwise, with one style, and
/topic/article/ (probably active) with another.
Actually, I don't see any reason why the approach I outlined on this list
a couple of months ago wouldn't work with 1.4 as well. Simply create
a single style, with several ROOT elements (different names of course)
like ROOT1, ROOT2, ROOT3 etc. Then use a case statement in
the top level ROOT, which invokes the appropriate style dynamically.
That will work, and I described that as one of the workarounds. But
technically, selecting an alternate style doesn't work (as opposed to
crafting one style to emulate multiple styles).

Re: [midgard] How to never treat a page as a directory?
I have made a page (in a host) called distro.rdf, and declared in mime.types (apache conf) rdf as an extension to text/plain mime type. But Midgard is converting /backend/distro.rdf to /backend/distro.rdf/, transforming this page to the text/html type. How can I prevent this? I've checked in a change that will not send the redirect (to add the trailing slash) if the page name contains a '.'; I think that is a sensible thing to do anyway.

1.4 has fixed it (since b3 I think). If you're using 1.2.5, open
mod_midgard.c and find something like
midgard_get_host(rcfg, ftstatus);
if (!rcfg-host) {
ap_log_rerror(APLOG_MARK, APLOG_DEBUG | APLOG_NOERRNO, r,
"Midgard: host record for %s:%d not found",
ap_get_server_name(r), ap_get_server_port(r));
It will be having APLOG_INFO or APLOG_WARN where it says APLOG_DEBUG
above. Change that into APLOG_DEBUG and the message will go away.

My thought: What about using Midgard for that purpose and administration only and doing all the data management the normal PHP way? Would this be a wise step, giving us comfortable administration but keeping data flexibility? Or would it be overkill, making an easy task much too complicated? With the current (1.4) release, if your data doesn't fit into the topic/article 'format' it's probably a kludge to use it. Using separate tables/database makes perfect sense. We're working on getting the data format more flexible in 2.0 but even then there will on occasion be good reasons to have data outside the Midgard database.

It looks for include/xml/xmlparse.h in "$withval usr usr/local" so I figured that rewriting expat-lib to put its includes there would do the trick. I have this all implemented and testing it it looks OK; midgard-lib and php now use the same library so no symbol clash occurs. It looks like actually these symbols resolve to Apache's internal expat-lite because these functions are exported via httpd.exp (apache/src/support/httpd.exp).

Is the MySQL configuration or the Midgard that is wrong. I'm having no problems with this. Call phpinfo() from a Midgard page and look for the value of magic_quotes_gpc. I found this : Directive Master ValueLocal Value magic_quotes_gpc0 0 That looks OK (it's what I have too). What language parser do you use, latin1 or russian?

Frank Boehme wrote: In what way does that change the startup procedure? Because the error message doesn't look familiar to me, nor does our code process -D MIDGARD in any way. AFAICT anyway. In SuSE, apache is started from within /sbin/init.d/apache. This checks for the presence of apache modules. For each module found, a "-D XXX" string is appended to a shell variable $MODULES. This variable is then exported to that shell which starts apache with the config file /etc/httpd/httpd.conf. That is the normal config file but it load tthe modules depending on the -D XXX directives. For example: I see. OK, but I still can't find the error message in question anywhere. I'm wondering what part is generating it. If you pass -D MIDGARD, what gets included? Emile -- This is The Midgard Project's mailing list.

RE: [midgard] Blobs revivisted; Anyone know how to know blob imagesize?
Tarjei Huse wrote: Btw. I suggest that we build inn some fileattribute fields innto the blob / parameter table. I must admitt I spent the better of some hours trying to build it into my existing fadmin - withouth manageing to find out where to start. I think this should be features in Aasgard and (if needed) changes in the blobtable. What I suggest is basicly that we can do a listattachments() and then a fetch and be able to check the object comming for filesize, imagewidth and imageheight. Maybe there are more attributes worth checking for, but since you need to set these upon uploading the image I find it a natural thing to put into the admin codes. I guess I'm crying out for my sick mother here, but It seems to me that knowing f.eks image sizes is a point when letting (l)users use attachments for different things. My horror is the user puting a 250+ k imagefile in their article without thinking You can spot this during the upload. PHP also has built-in facilities to limit the size uf uploaded files. Other than allowing direct access to the blob, I see no way of making every scrap of information about the file that anyone out there might feels is interesting available. I welcome discussion on this point; short term I would use parameters on the blob to store meta data during blob creation/update. Emile -- This is The Midgard Project's mailing list.

Re: [midgard] Midgard crashes apache
Paul Gillingwater wrote: Dear All, I tried recomiling again, using the order that I read about here: http://www.midgard-project.org/topic/218.html This suggests doing Apache, MySQL, midgard-lib, mod_midgard then midgard-php, which is the order I used. I still get the crash. OK, I'm going to try to recreate this at home. What platform are you using? Can you send me a (sanitezed) copy of your apache config? I know the database access is correct, because if the password is wrong it retries. It only fails when the password is correct (or if I remove the password requirement.)

Emile Here's how I configured midgard-php: ./configure --with-mysql --with-xml --with-midgard --with-mysql --with-apxs=/ usr/local/apache/bin/apxs --with-imap Mod-midgard and lib-midgard both use only ./configure, with all things in standard places.

I isolated the problem and the result was midgard-php. After reinstall each package (following the right order as announced on the web page) I reconfigure my midgard-php to: ./configure --with-apxs --with-shared-apache=/usr/lib/apache --with-apache=/usr/lib/apache --with-midgard --with-mysql=/usr (Using RedHat 6.2). After all, works fine. What configure line did you use before then? I think that Paul could be try loading php module first, after that (if it works ok) load the following. In my setup I load php3 before mod_midgard (not intentional, it just happened to be this way) and I see no problems. The compile order is indeed crucial, and you should always upgrade all three packages when you upgrade, and compile (and install) lib first. I don't know how all of the unixen handle .so's but I would advice to shutdown apache before installing the lib. Emile -- This is The Midgard Project's mailing list.
