Hi all,
I'm starting to think the way I've implemented my program
(http://www.mardy.it/eligante) is all wrong.
Basically, what I want is a web application, which might run as CGI
scripts in apache (and this is working) or even as a standalone
application, in which case it would use it's own internal webserver.
The question is about this homemade webserver: right now it's a slightly
modified version of the standard CGIHTTPServer module. Since I know all my
CGIs are python scripts, I thought that performance would be best if they
are executed with the execfile command, in the same process as the
webserver.
This works, but my problem is that SQL connections (MySQL or sqlite) don't
get closed when the script execution finishes, and at the next execution
of a CGI they may lock the database (this is especially true with sqlite,
but even mysql on Windows gave me these problems).
I tryed to call atexit.register() from inside the CGI script (in order to
close the connection) but my atexit function get called only when the
webserver itself exits.
So, I'd like to know if there is a quick solution, or if I have to rewrite
the whole mechanism (maybe using some existing framework? which one?).
What I care most, is the ease of installation and use of my program (and
portability). That's why I'm not contented with apache.
