Hello fellow twisters, David Reid suggested that I should ask the twisted.web list for answers ... so here it is.
We have a rather large web app based on xul, xmlrpc (via twisted) and php (via apache) .... and we would like to get it all (in due time) in python. As a first step it would be perfect to let twisted handle php page requests so that we can use nevow for the upcomming modules and convert old modules when we have the time to spare. Some time ago, I tried to get PHP to run as a CGI from twisted ... that was so slow that I got timing problems and a non operatable webapp. BTW ... nothing new on the FCGI for PHP front yet? My question ... is it possible to pass php page requests from twisted to apache so I don't suffer the speed loss but still have my app listening on only one port (for http and xmlrpc) ? So can twisted be a proxy for php or is this not the recommended way to go? I know about the reverseproxy stuff .. but if I understand that correctly, it's about passing requests to twisted from apache or other server. I would like it to be the other way round .. twisted passes requests for PHP to apache, receives the processed content and passes that back to the client. (if that method doesn't have any significant drawbacks) - Remi - _______________________________________________ Twisted-web mailing list [email protected] http://twistedmatrix.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twisted-web
