Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
JamesBB Posted July 23, 2011 Posted July 23, 2011 Hello :) Just wondering if anyone is using the Cherokee webserver, if so what re-writes etc are you using?
JamesBB Posted July 23, 2011 Author Posted July 23, 2011 never heard of it! Here's the details: http://www.cherokee-project.com/ it has a GUI admin tool that is rather funky, but I can't find any info on running IPB on it, there's info on phpbb3 etc but nothing on anything commercial, it's one I would love to use if I could find enough info on how to set it up with IPS products.
valendono Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 my board still testing right now, problem with .htaccess
JamesBB Posted July 28, 2011 Author Posted July 28, 2011 my board still testing right now, problem with .htaccess Cherokee doesn't do .htaccess
marine-marchande.com Posted July 28, 2011 Posted July 28, 2011 I used IPB with cherokee since 1 year.
JamesBB Posted July 28, 2011 Author Posted July 28, 2011 Fantastic, may we see the re-write rules etc that you are using
marine-marchande.com Posted July 30, 2011 Posted July 30, 2011 I change the php files directly but i'll make rules 4 the 3.2, i'm testing it now.
San1ty Posted January 20, 2012 Posted January 20, 2012 I realize this is a super necro, but I'm contemplating reinstalling my server and using cherokee as a webserver. Does IPB 3.2 fully support Cherokee? What rules would I need if I need any at all?
.time Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 The only thing you'd need to work out is the mod_rewrite rules.
San1ty Posted January 21, 2012 Posted January 21, 2012 Do you mean this?:<IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase / RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /index.php [L] </IfModule> How would I go and translate this to cherokee? Sorry I'm still a bit new at this! Or doesn't IPB use .htaccess? Also I only need this if I want to use SEO URL's right?
Grumpy Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 1. Maybe you'll get a better response on how to make .htaccess type of behavior in cherokee in a cherokee forum. Clearly doesn't seem to be too popular here. 2. Yes, you only need .htaccess if you want to use IP.SEO.
Robulosity2 Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Yes Most support here is for Linux VPS, Windows IIS, Apache, litespeed etc. Minor pretty much unheard of web servers are a dangerous breed *shrug*
JamesBB Posted February 9, 2012 Author Posted February 9, 2012 While Cherokee is a great web server, I really do feel IPS should make an effort to support servers like it, as they blow apache into the dark ages for performance, I had to give up on it as there are just no resources on IPS products running on Cherokee, however I did change to nginx, it rocks. While it's harder to setup than Cherokee at least there are resources out there. The main reason I feel IPS should sit up and pay attention to Cherokee isn't just performance, it's a very easy server to setup, with it's own GUI setup tool that's surprisingly powerful and useful, and user friendly even for most noobs, I feel many may choose to go with IPS because they have resources on how to configure IPB to work with Cherokee, if there was some support it's the sort of thing one could setup in 10 minutes, with all security mods, rather than having to mess with config files.
