Re: HTTP file uploads with mod_accel
I use it with uploads and it all works fine. What I still haven't tested is the UPLOAD_HOOK functionality of Apache::Request under it, but I'll get around to that shortly.

Hmm, I wonder if it's dependent on the CPAN module used to parse the file uploads. I'm using MwfCGI.pm (distributed with mwForum), which is a somewhat modified version of CGI::Minimal.

Never mind, I'm an idiot. I just took a look at the error_log of my frontend and the problem became clear. [Sun Jan 6 09:42:04 2002] [error] [client 206.173.36.189] (13)Permission denied: accel: can't create tempfile /usr/local/apache/cache/tmpFtYxlf

I've just fixed it and in next release mod_accel would return 500 in this case. Igor Sysoev

Igor, DOES mod_accel buffer the uploads as they come through? That feature would be critical for compatibility with libapreq's UPLOAD_HOOK, which I'm finding lots of nice uses for...

Yes, mod_accel buffers completly uploads and starting from 1.0.8 broken uploads even do not go to backend. The are two reasons: 1. Backend should not wait slow client upload. 2. To implement simple fault-tolerance I need to collect whole upload. Although second reason does not require to collect whole upload before sending it to backend. There is workaround to use UPLOAD_HOOK on backend - you can use mod_proxy with mod_accel: ProxyPass /upload/ http://backend/upload/ ProxyPassReverse /upload/ http://backend/upload/ AccelPass / http://backend/ AccelNoPass/upload/ Igor Sysoev
