RE: Chilisoft ASP. Cold Fusion MX. Has any one set this up succesfully with cpanel? Any one found any conflicts they would like to share? Thanks
Dave, We are considering ChilliASP ourselves... do you recommend it? Is the installation difficult? Will every customer automatically get ASP support or can you define who gets the ASP support? Does it support Access .mdb databases? Any help will be appreciated. Alessandro Arona elenlace.com
Hi Alessandro; Works wonderfully!! Installation is not to difficult, some minor tweaking though is required. You can define which customers get ASP support in it's admin area. As for Access? I'm not to sure. Never looked.
Hi David, What minor tweaking is required? I'm about to install but want to be ready for any suprises! Kind Regards, Neil
When configuring the Sun Chili!Soft ASP server you will get this error. Error: The specified version of Apache (1.3.27) is not currently supported. Note: Regardless of this fact, you may be able to build your own module that supports this version of Apache. Compile a new module for Sun Chili!Soft ASP. Run these lines from the CASP_INSTALL_DIR/module/source/build directory: gcc -c -fPIC -I/usr/local/apache/include -I. mod_casp2.c gcc --shared -o mod_casp2.so mod_casp2.o ld -G -o mod_casp2.so mod_casp2.o After that module has been built, proceed by following these steps: (1) mkdir -p /usr/local/chillisoft/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.27/eapi (2) cp <generated build dir>/mod_casp2.so /usr/local/chillisoft/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.27/eapi (3) Rerun the the installer by executing the following script: HASH(0x81bb64c)-{asphome}/INSTALL/install. By placing the file into the created module directory, the installer will recognize it as a supported Web server and act accordingly.
Hi David, When modifying the clients who have access to ASP I'm getting the following error: Csadmin.Server.1 error '80020009' The webserver could not be started. /caspadmin/server.vhosts.asp, line 160 How do I fix it? Kind Regards, Neil
That would tell me that the webserver is not installed properly in ASP Admin, or using wrong mod_casp2.
Hi David, I have just noticed that in the asp admin panel the server name is incorect!?! Would this cause the problem? Kind Regards, Neil
Hi, I have fixed the server name issue, however still geting the error message. Also if I stop/start or restart the web server from the ASP admin panel it doesn't come back up!?! No error message or anything just says stopped! I followed your instructions above to add the module for apache 1.3.27! Kind Regards, Neil
Check the following logs for errors /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log /usr/local/chillisoft/admin/logs/error Ensure that the following are in the httpd.conf file LoadModule casp2_module /usr/local/chillisoft/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.27/eapi/mod_casp2.so AddModule mod_casp2.c ## Sun Chili!Soft ASP installer AddHandler chiliasp .asp AddHandler chiliasp .asa CaspLib /usr/local/chillisoft/asp-server-3026
Hi David, From the error_log file: [Sun Mar 16 17:27:56 2003] [notice] Apache/1.3.27 (Unix) Chili!Soft-ASP/3.6.2 mod_log_bytes/1.0 PHP/4.3.1 FrontPage/5.0.2.2510 mod_ssl/2.8.12 OpenSSL/0.9.6b configured -- resuming normal operations [Sun Mar 16 17:27:56 2003] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/local/apache/bin/suexec) [Sun Mar 16 17:27:56 2003] [notice] Accept mutex: sysvsem (Default: sysvsem) From the error file: [Sun Mar 16 17:10:19 2003] [notice] Apache/1.3.14 (Unix) Chili!Soft-ASP/3.6.2 configured -- resuming normal operations [Sun Mar 16 17:10:19 2003] [notice] suEXEC mechanism enabled (wrapper: /usr/local/apache/bin/suexec) All httpd.conf items present and correct!! Kind Regards, Neil
That shows that it is up and running. The resuming normal operations is sometimes from the pid file not overwritting properly. You may want to do a clean apache stop and start and tehn see if asp admin can do it.
just go into /usr/local/apache/bin and do the following ./apachectl stop ./apachectl start Before doing that though do ./apachectl configtest Make sure you get "syntax ok"
Hi David, It tells me the syntax is ok, however at the top is says: [Sun Mar 16 21:45:14 2003] [warn] Loaded DSO /opt/casp/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.27/eapi/mod_casp2.so uses plain Apache 1.3 API, this module might crash under EAPI! (please recomplie it with -DEAPI) Kind Regards, Neil
Hi David, I fixed the start, stop, restart issue. There was a fix on the chilisoft page for apache with ssl, tried that and it works fine now. Just need to know what to do about the recomplie message I get? Kind Regards, Neil
From the Sun Support site. Article ID #200208081 Problem: Help! I tried to compile a DSO module for my Apache using the gcc method recommended in your other knowledge base article, but it doesn't work. I get strange errors and warning messages, such as: [Fri Aug 08 15:28:57 2002] [warn] Loaded DSO /opt/casp/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.26/eapi/mod_casp2.so uses plain Apache 1.3 API, this module might crash under EAPI! (please recompile it with -DEAPI) What should I do? Solution: You should compile your DSO module using apxs instead. This solution applies to DSO-enabled Apache configurations; non-DSO Apache must be recompiled with Sun Chili!Soft ASP, as documented in the README. If Sun Chili!Soft ASP is already installed, uninstall it. Let's start with a clean slate. For the following procedure, CASP_INSTALL_DIR = the location of the Sun Chili!Soft ASP installation. XX = your specific version of Apache. These instructions are specific and concise. Adjust paths according to your server environment. Step-by-Step Instructions 1. Install Sun Chili!Soft ASP using CUSTOM mode, selecting NO WEB SERVER. 2. After the installation is complete, run these lines from the CASP_INSTALL_DIR/module/source/build/ directory: # /path/to/apxs -c ./mod_casp2.c 3. From CASP_INSTALL_DIR/module/source/build/, run: # mkdir -p CASP_INSTALL_DIR/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.XX/standard # mkdir -p CASP_INSTALL_DIR/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.XX/eapi # cp /path/to/mod_casp2.so CASP_INSTALL_DIR/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.XX/standard # cp /path/to/mod_casp2.so CASP_INSTALL_DIR/module/linux2_optimized/apache_1.3.XX/eapi For Solaris, substitute sunos5_optimized/standard/ for linux2_optimized/standard/. 4. Use a Web browser to access the Sun Chili!Soft ASP Admin Server on port 5100. 5. At the screen that displays for adding a new server, select the server from the list (if available), or enter the full path to your httpd.conf file (Red Hat defaults to /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf). All you need to do is generate the mod_casp2.so file; all necessary configuration parameters will be added automatically via the ASP Admin Console.
Hi David, Thanks for all your assistance, I have one last issue and then should be set to go! When looking at the diagnostics for the components I get this error: Creating Chili!Mail Component ***ERROR*** This component did not install correctly. Creating Chili!POP3 Component ***ERROR*** This component did not install correctly. Creating Chili!Upload Component ***ERROR*** This component did not install correctly. Any thoughts?
