how can i get static files REALLY been processed by apache ???
Hy;
When i setup apache/tomcat/cocoon, i run into following
fancy problem. Although what i want seems trivial, but i did not
manage to get it done (I might not know the magic command to get round it)
Here is the problem:
1.) I want all static files been served by apache, i.e.:
*.gif, *.html, *.jpg
2.) I want *ALL* other files be served by cocoon.
Now how should i setup mod_jk.conf ????
this doesn't help:
<IfModule mod_jk.c>
JkWorkersFile /etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties
JkLogFile /var/log/httpd/mod_jk.log
JkLogLevel error
JkMount /cocoon cocoon
JkMount /cocoon/ cocoon
JkMount /cocon/* cocoon
</IfModule>
because it redirects everything to cocoon. But apache shall
serve the files mentioned above ...
This is not complete (Indeed it can never be complete):
<IfModule mod_jk.c>
JkWorkersFile /etc/httpd/conf/workers.properties
JkLogFile /var/log/httpd/mod_jk.log
JkLogLevel error
JkMount /cocoon/*.xml cocoon
JkMount /cocoon/*.jsp cocoon
JkMount /cocon/*.foo cocoon
...
</IfModule>
The list could potentially go down endlessly.
There MUST be an obvious solution to this!
Anyone can help me here ?
regards, Hussayn

Hi,
I'm using RewriteCond and RewriteRule in my apache config for that purpose.
(http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_rewrite.html#RewriteCond)
(see also http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_rewrite.html#RewriteCond)
You can use -f with RewriteCond to check if the file exists, and if, catch
it from hd.
Something like the following should work:
RewriteCond /your/docroot/dir1/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} -f
RewriteRule ^(.+) /your/docroot/dir1/$1 [L]
hope that helps

Hy;
yes, it is a typo...
but my problem remains when i correct the typo ..
remember: i want to EXCLUDE some files to be forwarded to cocoon,
and i didn't find HOW i can get JK to do this...
JkMount /cocoon/* cocoon <== mount everything
JkNoMount *.gif, *.jpg cocoon <== but not these
while the first directive is well documented, the secnd
is what i need, but it doesn't exist. so the question is,
how can i get what i want ? ;-(

My needs were pretty simple where I wanted to have some standard images
on a page so I included it in the XSLT to make the webpage. Not sure if
that's the correct way of doing it, in fact I'm a little concerned that I
might be using XSLTs in a way that they shouldn't be used:
<xsl:template match="topmiddle">
<xsl:comment> Horizontal guides </xsl:comment>
<img src="http://images.example.com/blue.gif"</img>
<br></br>
<img src="http://images.example.com/white.gif"></img>
</xsl:template>
You might be able to workup some sort of "<xsl: if text" clause to
manipulate the {link} reference to go to the static page.

Hy,
Your last comment sounds very promising.
How could i let cocoon throw in the "static" refs ???
Wouldn't that mean i need cocoon to find the hrefs and
do some replacement stuff there. Or how would i do that?
any pointers to howto, docs or so ?

I ran into the same thing and from what I could find out is that you
really want a "!" operator on the JkMount directive.

> There MUST be an obvious solution to this!
Here's what I did, its just for the images but you could extend it to
anything:
Create a new website called "images.examples.com" in your
httpd.conf file. Here's some snippets of my Apache2 one:
<VirtualHost 10.0.0.181>
ServerName www.example.com
# this all goes to cocoon, but need a docroot anyway
DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/data/example
# send all these requests to the coyote connector
JkMount /* cocoon
</VirtualHost>
<VirtualHost 10.0.0.181>
ServerName images.example.com
DocumentRoot /usr/local/www/data/example
</VirtualHost>
So now when a request comes in you'll have Apache handle it differently
for "www" vs "images"
Its not that elegant to have references to
"http://static.example.com/path/to/myhelp.html" but hey, it gets the job
done. You can tell cocoon to throw in the "static" a href for you so it
wouldn't be that much work.

Re: how can i get static files REALLY been processed by apache ???
Posted by Lajos <lm...@galatea.com>.
Ok, there is another way. Say you have your top level directories -
images, scripts, style - under DocumentRoot, so they are served by
Apache. Then, you have specific Cocoon applications forwarded to Cocoon
in Tomcat via JkMount's:
JkMount /myapp1 ajp13
JkMount /myapp2 ajp13
etc.
Then, in the XSLs that produce the HTML in your Cocoon apps, you just
put /images, /scripts, /style for all *.gif, *.jpg, *.js, *.css files.
So, nothing will ever get routed thru Tomcat.
Luca is right that is is inefficient to use the pipelines the way I
suggest. And in fact, for galatea.com I do just what I suggest above:
all my gif, jpg, css and js references start from the root so never get
to Cocoon.

Lajos

i see we are all very creative people ;-)
Another cool idea how to get around the problem.
The one thing i am *really* uncomfortable with this
solution is the sequence:
1.) browser requests .img
2.) apache forwards request to tomcat
3.) tomcat forwards request to cocoon
4.) cocoon processes and redirects.
5.) apache redirects
6.) browser calls apache
7.) apache serves the file
hmm. performance again ??????
i really would prefer something like:
1.) browser requests .img
2.) apache serves the file
ill need to switch on my hackers-brain-partition ;-)
Thanks again for your answers...

RE: how can i get static files REALLY been processed by apache ???
Posted by Luca Morandini <lu...@tin.it>.
Lajos,
sure this is more elegant, but also slower than using the web-server directly... I hate going back to the Application server if not
absolutely necessary :(

Re: how can i get static files REALLY been processed by apache ???
Posted by Lajos <lm...@galatea.com>.
Hi Hussayn -
Here is what I do in almost every cocoon app I do:
<map:match pattern="styles.css">
<map:read mime-type="text/css" src="/styles/styles.css"/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="**/styles.css">
<map:read mime-type="text/css" src="/styles/styles.css"/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="*.gif">
<map:read mime-type="image/gif" src="/images/{1}.gif"/>
</map:match>
<map:match pattern="**/*.gif">
<map:read mime-type="image/gif" src="/images/{2}.gif"/>
</map:match>
Any gif or css (and you can do the same for jpg, js, etc.) gets
redirected to the appropriate directory off the webserver root, and
hence is served by Apache. So, under Apache's DocumentRoot I have
/images, /styles, /scripts, etc., etc.
Regards,
Lajos

Not really, I've put up this URIs in global parameter and refer to these variables in my XSLs: just a change in one XML file if you
want to change these URIs.
BTW, this way is already described in the Cocoon FAQ http://xml.apache.org/cocoon/faq/faq-configure-environment.html#faq-4

hy,
thats a very pragmatic idea. i like such approaches.
but, hmm... wouldn't this need lots of "static" links
in your pages ???
i mean, you really must point to the myapp-static pages
with absolute links. What about maintenance ... ???
seems as if i need to do it in this way, or let cocoon
serve everything ;-(
Maybe i can plugin something in to apache, or would it be
a big problem to get mod_JK do what i want (hacking ...) ???
I'll go and ask the apache-group ...
and report back, what i get from there maybe in a Wiki ;-) ?
anyway thanks for the tip...

RE: how can i get static files REALLY been processed by apache ???
Posted by Luca Morandini <lu...@tin.it>.
Hussayn,
I know it is not a smart solution, but it worked for me.
1) Setup mod_jk to redirect everything starting with "myapp" to Tomcat/Cocoon
2) Setup an alias named "myapp-static" pointed to a directory containing your static files
3) Use URI like "/myapp/dynamic.htlm" for dynamic content and URI like "/myapp-static/static.html" for static content
This has the advantage of scaling up well: we have three web-servers serving the static content ("/myapp-static/*") and one
app-server serving the Cocoon-generated content ("/myapp/*").
Regards.
