Yes, this is definitely an open-ended question. Three possible answers from my side: 1. Of course you can just run your Squeak image on port 80, but then you probably need to run it as root to be able to listen on port 80: nohup squeak -vm-display-null pier.image & That is probably the easiest solution to run a seaside application on your own linux box, but certainly not the best one. 2. The setup on my own gentoo linux looks slightly more complicated. First of all I use daemon-tools <http://cr.yp.to/daemontools.html> to make sure the image runs all the time. The startup-script looks like: #!/bin/sh exec \ nice \ setuidgid apache \ squeak -vm-sound-null -vm-display-null pier.image Inside the image I have Seaside listening on port 9002, as well as a vnc-server to manage, update and fix the running code. Then I have Apache 2 running that is responsible to do the virtual-hosting and the static file serving. The configuration looks like: <VirtualHost www.lukas-renggli.ch:80> DocumentRoot /home/apache/www.lukas-renggli.ch <Directory /home/apache/www.lukas-renggli.ch> Order deny,allow Allow from all </Directory> ProxyPreserveHost On RewriteEngine On RewriteCond /home/apache/www.lukas-renggli.ch/%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule ^/(.*)$ http://localhost:9002/seaside/pier/$1 [P,L] </VirtualHost> The first half of this file are standard-things. Then "ProxyPreserveHost On" enables Seaside to get absolute paths correctly. The rewrite rule maps the static file-system into the same URL space as the one of the Squeak image. Basically it tells apache to serve the static file if it is available, else it will proxy the request to Seaside. 3. The third option is nothing I can talk about right now, but it will be certainly announced during this or the next week ;-) Cheers, Lukas -- Lukas Renggli http://www.lukas-renggli.ch
