Configuration/Webserver/Apache

There will be a file installed in $prefix/share/doc/bongo called bongo.conf. This file has a configuration for Bongo mod_python. Extra help can be provided here.

[edit] Configuring Dragonfly

Dragonfly uses an HTML frontend, managed by a python backend. So we have 2 things to define: HTML location and Python location.

The HTML is located in $prefix/share/bongo/htdocs. It can be easily added along with the other config requirements to your Apache's script, by copying the configuration below. Remember to change $prefix to the correct value:

<IfModule mod_python.c>
# Note that you cannot change the webroot to be anything other than / 
# at the moment - otherwise, it will not work!
Alias / $prefix/share/bongo/htdocs/

<Location />
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
    Options +FollowSymlinks
</Location>

<Location /user>
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all

    SetHandler python-program
    PythonPath "['$prefix/lib/python2.4/site-packages']+sys.path"
    PythonHandler bongo.dragonfly.Server
    PythonOption DragonflyUriRoot "/user"
    PythonDebug On
</Location>

<Location /admin>
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all

    SetHandler python-program
    PythonPath "['$prefix/lib/python2.4/site-packages']+sys.path"
    PythonHandler bongo.hawkeye.Server
    PythonOption HawkeyeUriRoot "/admin"
    PythonOption HawkeyeTmplRoot "$prefix/share/bongo/htdocs/hawkeye"
    PythonDebug On
</Location>
</IfModule>

[edit] Restart Apache

Now you need to restart Apache by following the appropriate command:

[edit] Debian/GNU Linux & Ubuntu

# /etc/init.d/apache2 reload 

[edit] Fedora

# service httpd restart

[edit] Redhat Enterprise Linux & CentOS

# service httpd restart

[edit] SUSE Linux

# rcapache2 restart

[edit] Complete

Now you can visit

http://hostname/

in your browser.

Once this is done, you can move onto the next section. You may also want to consider optimizing your Apache installation for Dragonfly.
