Scott,

Fossil can be run in any URL suffix on an existing domain. This is how, for example ChiselApp.com works -- each user*repo is a different URL and they run their own repositories, while the rest of the site runs PHP.

Thanks,

Going to give this a try. (also busy with other pay-the-bills work so I tend to do this one in my spare (ha) time).

The issue I am trying to figure out is that it seems it is an all or nothing setup. Either the website is using fossil as the website or not at all. Most of the website is HTML5 and php pages that have nothing to do with the fossil archive. It is the functionality of the random number generator, api, and website UI I designed that I am packaging up as an open source project. Hence the use of fossil.

What I want is for fossil to activate when I access a specific directory to use fossil.

https://nousrandom.net/code/

But it appears I am going to have to make a sub-domain to do this.

I put the fossil program in that folder, and through the command line interface (via putty) created a new archive in that folder. However, when I issue the command

fossil server --scgi

the program runs in the foreground and the command line control is unusable until I ctrl-c.

So I guess I need to create a sub-domain to use fossil.

Still have not yet got it to work even as a stand-alone.

To be continued...

Is there a step-by-step how to get fossil to work from an internet page?
I?ve posted this here several times now:

Since you?ve already got Let?s Encrypt working with nginx, you can skip all of that. The HOWTO was written before Let?s Encrypt had built-in support for nginx.
