Title: WO app deployment on Linux no static image showing up

Hi, Daniel,

I created new user appserver and add it to www-data group. I am running wotaskd and Monitor as appserver.

Apache2 is installed by Ubuntu as root:root by default, wouldn't change that.

After root start apache, the real APACHE_RUN_USER is setup in envvars file as

export APACHE_RUN_USER=www-data

export APACHE_RUN_GROUP=www-data

1. in webobjects.conf, leave

WebObjectsDocumentRoot /Apple/Local/Library/WebServer/Documents

2. apache2.conf

Alias /WebObjects "/Apple/Local/Library/WebServer/Documents/WebObjects"
<Directory "/Apple/Local/Library/WebServer/Documents/WebObjects">
      AllowOverride All
      Order allow,deny
      Allow from all
</Directory>

3. sudo chown appserver:www-data "/Apple/Local/Library/WebServer/Documents/WebObjects/MySchool.woa/Contents"

NOW it's working, I can get image from

http://156.13.128.145/WebObjects/MySchool.woa/Contents/WebServerResources/basicbrain.gif

further intersting question coming out

my first throught was www-data:www-data for "/Apple/Local/Library/WebServer/Documents/WebObjects/MySchool.woa/Contents", so I changed it.

still working, get image from link above.

I think the reason maybe appserver and www-data are the same group in www-data. is that right?

[Question]

What is "WebObjectsDocumentRoot" for in webobjects.conf? because we use 'Alias /WebObjects" in apache2.conf? do we need "WebObjectsDocumentRoot"?

thanks

kevin
