try number two, fumble fingers…

After much diddling about I finally came up with the recipe to run RT3
under SpeedyCGI (aka PersistentPerl).

Apache config:

LoadModule speedycgi_module libexec/apache2/mod_speedycgi.so
AddHandler speedycgi-script .scgi

<VirtualHost *>
ServerName support.example.com
DocumentRoot “/usr/local/rt3/share/html”
AddDefaultCharset UTF-8

Alias /bin/ "/usr/local/rt3/bin/"
<Location /bin>
    Options +ExecCGI
</Location>
Action text/html /bin/mason_handler.scgi

And here’s mason_handler.scgi:

Cool. You gonna tell us what it is? :wink:
Or. better yet, send a patch so I can include it in 3.0.1.

Best,

And a patch to sbin/rt-test-dependencies for SpeedyCGI support.

I’m running this on Apache2. Seems to be pretty darned fast. I don’t
even need to put the images on another vhost, since only the html
files are mason-processed. I haven’t done through testing, but a
bunch of clicking around gave some pretty normal looking results.

I didn’t make the mason_handler.scgi script setgid rt, but my www user
is in group rt so the config file is readable by it. this seems a
cleaner solution than setgid to me.
