Configuring eruby with apache

Eric2 · 15 July 2006 00:01

Hi everybody!

Sorry if this not the right place to post, please tell me where I
should ask such a question if it's not the right place to post here.

I just would like to enable .rhtml files to be automatically converted
by eruby using apache2, but I didn't managed to do it so far.
How did you succeed in doing so?
I use Ubuntu 6.06, with
eruby 1.0.5-1
libapache2-mod-ruby 1.2.5-1
ruby1.8.4
apache2 2.0.55

Any success story corresponding to my configuration?

Thanks for your attention,

Eric.

Have you set up your httpd2.conf file?

First, there has to be this up with the other modules:

LoadModule ruby_module /usr/lib/apache2/mod_ruby.so

Then, below, there is something like:

#lots of other stuff here
#just showing the stuff for .rhtml files

  # # for Apache::ERubyRun
  RubyRequire apache/eruby-run
   # handle *.rhtml as eruby files.
   <Files *.rhtml>
     SetHandler ruby-object
     RubyHandler Apache::ERubyRun.instance
   </Files>

</IfModule>

Does that help?

Also, if you get that running, I really like that you can plunk this into a .htaccess file and get exception traces:

<Files *.rhtml>
SetHandler ruby-object
RubyHandler Apache::ERubyDebug.instance
</Files>

Yay simplicity. Now if only dealing with headers/cookies and the like were easier from within Apache/eRuby...

Thanks a lot for your reply Justin!
(and thank you too Mat, but I cannot try your tip yet)

So, I tried to modify http.conf by adding:

···

###########################################################
LoadModule ruby_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_ruby.so
<IfModule mod_ruby.c>
  # # for Apache::ERubyRun
  RubyRequire apache/eruby-run
   # handle *.rhtml as eruby files.
   <Files *.rhtml>
     SetHandler ruby-object
     RubyHandler Apache::ERubyRun.instance
   </Files>
</IfModule>
###########################################################

And then,

$ sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 force-reload
* Forcing reload of apache 2.0 web server...
[Fri Jul 14 18:36:45 2006] [warn] module ruby_module is already loaded,
skipping
[Fri Jul 14 18:36:47 2006] [warn] module ruby_module is already loaded,
skipping
[ ok ]

Indeed, I already enabled ruby_module by using
$ a2enmod ruby

So I removed the link "/etc/apache2/mods-enabled/ruby"
and reloaded apache2, without warning this time.

But now, when I try to view a .rhtml file, my browser only asks me if I want
to download this file or open it with a text editor. :-/

Thanks again for your help,

Eric

Ok!

I found the solution

I removed
<IfModule mod_ruby.c>
  # # for Apache::ERubyRun
   RubyRequire apache/eruby-run
    # handle *.rhtml as eruby files.
    <Files *.rhtml>
      SetHandler ruby-object
      RubyHandler Apache::ERubyRun.instance
    </Files>
</IfModule>

from httpd.conf
and replaced it with:

···

###########################
AddType application/x-httpd-eruby .rhtml
Action application/x-httpd-eruby /cgi-bin/eruby
###########################

Then
sudo a2enmod ruby actions
made the rest.

Thanks for your help!

Eric

PS : any clue why my posts are always doubled???

They aren't really doubled, they just look that way in gmail.
