Hello :)
Just wondering if anyone is using the Cherokee webserver, if so what re-writes etc are you using?

never heard of it!

 

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.

my board still testing right now, problem with .htaccess

Cherokee doesn't do .htaccess

I used IPB with cherokee since 1 year.

Fantastic, may we see the re-write rules etc that you are using

I change the php files directly but i'll make rules 4 the 3.2, i'm testing it now.

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?

The only thing you'd need to work out is the mod_rewrite rules.

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?

Bump, Maybe someone of IPS?

Anyone?

Bump for great justice!

Bumpedybumpbump!

No one?

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.

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*

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.
