Hello all
I've put a new version 0.3 of Webware for the FreeBSD ports system
under http://www.sschwarzer.net/download/webware_port-0.3.tar.gz .
Unpack the file under /usr/ports as it contains the www/Webware
directories.
* New in this version:
- make install/deinstall in the port's directory works the same as
pkg_add/pkg_delete, as it should be. Previously, the pkg_add support
was broken.
- Avoid some checksum errors when using pkg_add/pkg_delete.
- The appserver is stopped when Webware is deinstalled.
I still have a problem. From the Makefile:
# TODO
#
# - Deal smarter with application workdir regarding re-installation
# -> Currently, an _already existing_ application workdir ${WEBKIT_HOME_DIR}
# is left untouched on de-installation and re-installation in order to
# preserve old configuration settings. However, this will cause problems
# when new Webware versions become incompatible with old configuration
# files. Moreover, the CGI script WebKit.cgi and OneShot.cgi won't be
# updated in the current port version.
#
# How should I deal with that? Do you have any suggestions?
Feedback is, as always, much appreciated.
* What about mod_webkit?
I'm working on a separate port for mod_webkit. The current version is
at http://www.sschwarzer.net/download/mod_webkit_port-0.1.tar.gz but
I'm not yet satisfied with it.
* What is the FreeBSD ports system?
The ports system (shared by other *BSD systems) provides an easy way
to install and deinstall software from source or as packages. For
example, the Webware port generates a special user "webkit", calls
install.py, MakeAppWorkDir.py, and installs a start/stop script.

* What is Webware for Python?
You all know. :-)
