Amazingly enough, the User Guide doesn't mention the correct URL
... fixed now. Thanks for the report.
No, the correct URL is http://tracker.xemacs.org/XEmacs/its/.
Roundup needs a non-root path. I need to do some Apache magic to
redirect from root to the non-root URL, I guess.
AFAIK this is trivial, but advice is welcome. Here's the problem.
A Roundup daemon can handle several trackers at the same. The way to
tell the daemon about a tracker to serve is
roundup-server tracker-name=/path/to/tracker/data
and it serves the URL
http://tracker-host.net/base-path/tracker-name/
(base-path can be null). It really wants that tracker-name on the
end
of the URL AFAICT. I guess just a mod_rewrite rule that redirects
"^/$" to "/XEmacs/its/" should work?
I think a redirectmatch will help:
---- >8 ----
RedirectMatch ^/$ /XEmacs/its/
---- 8< ----
And if you want apache to serve(to make use of the sendfile()
function)static htdoc documents inside the XEmacs/its virtual hierarchy
(eg. roundup help guide XEmacs/its/＠(a)file/xxx.html ) then you can use
mod_rewrite:
---- >8 ----
# Service static contents by mod_alias and mod_rewrite
Alias /roundup-htdocs /path/to/the/roundup/static/htdocs
<Directory "/path/to/the/roundup/static/htdocs">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/XEmacs/its/＠(a)file/(.*)$ /trac-htdocs/$2 [PT]
---- 8< ----
