Hello Etienne.
I'm forwarding the discussion to the mailing list so that more people
can contribute to solving the problem ;)
Regarding that, I'm baffled. If not traces are being shown you must be
using the wrong binary, but it doesn't seem that way from the commands
you posted. I get hundreds of information lines with that same command,
compiling in a similar way (autogen instead of configure, since I use
the SVN version):
./autogen.sh --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
--enable-beta --enable-trace
Anyway, two more tips:
1) Since you are at it, you could as well be using the latest release.
1.0.16 has gone a long way, and you'll have a much *much* better
Cherokee-Admin.
2) Are you sure the document-root for the static rule is correctly set
to /www/static (either through the rule or through the vserver
settings)? You could see exactly how the rule is being matched and if
you had the traces working.
Regards

Ok, I start pulling my hairs over here!
I review my settings, permissions, paths, etc. and I cannot see anything that
cause the problem.
So I decided to follow your advice and use the CHEROKEE_TRACE to see what is
going on. Unfortunately I was using the distro version of Cherokee 0.99.39
bundle with Ubuntu 10.04. So I downloaded the source of this version and
compile it on my development server like this:
./configure --localstatedir=/var --prefix=/usr/local --sysconfdir=/etc
--enable-trace
make
sudo make install
Then, after that I stopped the bundle one, I start my compile version like that:
sudo CHEROKEE_TRACE=all /usr/local/sbin/cherokee
It's running fine but I don't get any tracing? I tried different things but
without any success.
What I'm doing wrong? Is there a possible conflict between the bundle version
and the one I compile?
And about my initial rule problem, is there a possibility to have more info on the working of
"File exists", especially with "match any files"?
Thanks
Etienne

Your approach seems correct.
Make sure the File exists rule is final, though. Probably it is a minor
configuration issue that is messing things up. I would recommend using
CHEROKEE_TRACE [1] (which requires cherokee to be compiled with special flags)
to be able to troubleshoot exactly how the server is performing the matches.
Good luck!

Hi,
I'm trying to configure the rules of a virtual server to serve static files
from a directory, but if the file requested doesn't exist I want the request to
be pass to my Django app.
Currently I have a virtual server with my default rule as uWSGI serving Django
and 2 Directories rule serving Static Content for the media and the Django
admin media. All that is working.
I tried to add another rule on top of that of type File exists set to match any
files with a List& Send Handler with a Document Root pointing to the
directory where my static site is. But all requests are still sent to Django?
Default root: /www/media/
Root of static site: /www/static/
For example, If I have theses files in my static/ directory:
index.html
test.html
public/index.html
private/
I want theses URL to serve the corresponding static files:
http://mysite.com/index.html
http://mysite.com/test.html
http://mysite.com/public/index.html
http://mysite.com/public
And theses URL served by Django:
http://mysite.com/other
http://mysite.com/private/
http://mysite.com/some.html
Is it possible? How can I achieve that?
Thanks
Etienne
