mysqlsupport for virtuals.
Hi
My http.conf file grows every day and its getting big...
It's getting hard to find anyting without seartching in it.
My question is :
I like to move all virtualshosts away from httpd.conf in to a mysql server.
My doing that it would be muth easy to maintain my virtualhosts.
Have someone tried this without loosing preformance?
SV: mysqlsupport for virtuals.

I did some work on this. I am using mod_rewrite
and do a dynamical lookup for a rewrite-map using
LDAP. If you wish you may use a RDB instead of LDAP:
This dynamic rewrite-map then can be used to map virtual
hosts and whatever you want.
The biggest problem with mod_rewrite is, that it does
allow only one instance of a mapping program to run.
And if this progam has a problem, the whole webserver
has a problem. I therefore wrote a patch which allows
to link dynamically such a mapping-dso into mod_rewrite.
Unfortunately nobody from the Apache-group was ever
interrested in this patch. Not even comments.
Have a look at
http://bugs.apache.org/index.cgi/full/7688
and
http://homes.tiscover.com/jrief/apache_1.3.19-rewrite-dso.patch
BTW: the patch works up to version 1.3.26.

Even Better: lets just make the whole damn configuration interface pluggable
(yup, this has been suggested since the dinosaurs.....). We're on the right
track now that the config file is parsed at startup time....
