My understanding of the whole mapping process is
first step : the connectors checkes if there is a mapping fitting the
request in jrun (for example *.jrun) and then forwards the request to it
second step : apache does its work =< rewritting rules
third step : if the rewritting rule is an external rewritting ([R] flag),
it sends to itself the rewritted request, which then can be caught by the
connector (return to step 1), and the response that will be received will
be forwarded to the client. Else the rewritting rule is internal, and
apache is likely to treat the request by himself (including cgi scripts, ...)
fourth step : the result is sent to the client browser
Could anybody confirm this ?
Is there any way to have the mapping executed by apache instead of itsself,
or to call the connector from a rewritting rule (this should be possible,
as long as it is possible to call any external program).
Is there a way to declare an application/x-form-??? mime-type jrun could
intercept ? If not, then I don't understand why there is a mime type tab is
jrun's administrator.
Would JRun 3 behave the same, by the way ?
I'd really like to have a response from Allaire techs about this subject.
Best regards
