Dear sage community---
I want to set up a local sage server for my freshman physics students
to use. I am using Ubuntu 10.10 and followed the directions at the
SageServer wiki and it worked just fine. Assuming my server is at
http://server.whatever, going to this URL would fire up sage just
fine, with apache proxies rerouting / to localhost:8000.
This installation, however, assumes that the document root of the web
server is where the installation should occur. The associated proxy
redirects essentially take over the whole web server--that is,
accessing other web services, like a wiki or some other php codes
becomes impossible. I tried changing the proxies to reference
something like http://server.whatever/sage (that is, proxy redirect
/sage/ requests to localhost:8000). This works initially, but the css,
etc. was all missing. I fixed this with URL rewrites in
/sage/.htaccess, which edits the absolute references in the sage html
files. Things looked perfect now at http://server.whatever/sage, and
my other web services were available too.
The problem now is that all sage worksheets contain a red "Searching
for sage server..." and the worksheets become useless (i.e.
disconnected from the sage server). Likewise the javascript action of
deleting, etc. a worksheet are broken. I am stuck here and cannot
find a solution to this problem. Has anyone tried installing a sage
server into any web directory other that the root one?
There have been people that have discussed this before, but I can't find
the links with a few minutes of searching. The conclusion (IIRC) was
that a few judicious uses of the HTML base tag in the notebook html
sources would hopefully take care of the issue:

I thought someone even had a patch at one point, but I can't find it on
trac either.
