Cherokee Web Server

[Schnoober]

Hi,
This topic is migrating from here:
https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?act=f...post&pid=137520

I've been trying various methods of installing the web server Cherokee (recently included in the feeds) on to my 3200 running OZ 3.5.4.1/Opie. I had started by trying to do it by hand. When the feed files emerged I tried that, but all with precious little luck.

I have run ipkg update, switched feeds to a different mirror, tried downloading the files to my own feed, tried expanding the ipks and remaking them. All without joy.

The file I am using is: 3.5.4.1/feed/upgrades/cherokee_0.5.3-r1_arm.ipk
This is the only file I could find, but it's in "upgrades" so there may be another file but I cannot find it for the life of me.

Is there another file that I have missed, and that is not being picked up by ipkg?

Do you have the upgrades feed available (i.e. is it listed in one of the .conf files in /etc/ipkg/ or in /etc/ipkg.conf)?

Thanks for the responses folks.
Lardman, yes, after changing the conf files around to point to different mirrors I reinstated the default .conf, which has the same feed that Koen is using in his install listing above, and ran ipkg update again. No dice.

Koen, how interesting that you can do this and I cannot. I just noticed that the Cherokee version in your listing is different from mine. Wierd.

You: Installing cherokee (0.5.3-r1) to root...
Me:  Installing cherokee (0.5.4-1) to root...

That's even when I'm pointing ipkg directly to the file in your listing:
ipkg install [a href=\"http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/mirror/www.openzaurus.org/official/unstable/3.5.4.1/feed/upgrades/cherokee_0.5.3-r1_arm.ipk]http://ewi546.ewi.utwente.nl/mirror/www.op....5.3-r1_arm.ipk[/url]

This is very odd.

Thanks again for your time. I'll need to go away and poke at this until I can figure out what's wrong. I certainly seems as though the problem is on my Z. I'll let you know what happens.

I can confirm this works for me too.

Is it possible someone couls compile phpcgi so we can use php/mysql with cherokee>

Then I can make some progress on getting to grips with php at last

That you've already got. [edit] minus the MySQL [/edit]It's already installed on my machine, ready to go.

try: ipkg list | grep php

Incidentally, I can install Ruby too which comes from the same feed as Cherokee, but Cherokee still hates me. I also appear to be the only person in the universe who is unable to make this work. Gee that makes me feel good.

try ipkg list|grep php

Code: [Select]

ipkg list|grep php
apache-1.3.27-php-4.2.3 - 0.1 -
php - 4.3.10-r0 - A server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language. This package provides the CGI.
php-dev - 4.3.10-r0 - A server-side, HTML-embedded scripting language. This package provides the CGI....the apache-php thingy no worko on my 3200....it just segfaults.

But anyway, with cherokee running, when I browse a php file, the browser returns:

Code: [Select]

200 OK
...this is for a file containing:

Code: [Select]

phpinfo();
?>...which should return the standard php info page, so something's not right in terms of cherokee parsing php.

The cherokee modules file contains the handlers for php..so no comprendo que pasa

By way of a wrap up for this thread ...

In the end I gave up in despair and reloaded OZ/Opie from scratch. Immediately everything worked perfectly, though php is still not working with cherokee. Admittedly I have not tried very hard to make it work as yet. In fact, not at all.

It would seem that I had changed some esoteric setting somewhere, but which and where I could not tell you. I naturally insist that I made no foolish changes, and others will smile knowingly and insist that I did. We will never know.

I thank everyone for their efforts to help in this.

zedkatuf2, if I discover the answer to the php thing I'll post it here.

Thanks Schnoober for replying; I've moved over to using the Sharp ROM for now, as it runs much faster & I've got apache & php working with mysql...maybe I'll come back to OZ at some point, but for now the SharpROM does everything I need.

Cheers,
