Atypical Configurations for Microsoft Windows Deny from all Deny from all Deny from all Deny from all ScriptAlias /csp-bin/ "c:/cache-install-dir/csp/bin/" AllowOverride None Options None Order allow,deny Allow from all Action text/csp “/csp-bin/nph-CSPcgi.exe” Finally, note that because CGI is an open standard, the CSP CGI modules work with any web server. 3. Restart Apache after making changes to httpd.conf. A.4.2.1 Registering Additional File Types with CSP Apache API modules always recognize the following reserved file extensions: .csp .cls .zen .cxw You may have other files that you want to send to CSP for processing. For example, if you need to serve other static files through the CSP Gateway or need to access the Management Portal through this web server, add mappings for file types .jpg, .gif, .png, and .js. You can configure Apache to recognize what files to pass on to CSP in any of the following ways: • By CSP location directive • By file extension • By CSPFileTypes directive • By MIME type By CSPlocation directive Use the CSP directive to request that all files within a certain location be processed by CSP. The following requests that all files and directories under the /csp path be processed by CSP. CSP On SetHandler csp-handler-sa For example, all the following would be sent to CSP for processing: /csp/ csp/samples/menu.csp csp/sys/ By file extension Traditionally, Apache has been configured to invoke CSP on the basis of the requested file’s extension. For example, the following configuration block (from httpd.conf) tells Apache to allow CSP to process requests for files of type *.csp, *.cls, *.zen, and *.cxw: LoadModule csp_module_sa /cache-install-dir/csp/bin/CSPa22.dll AddHandler csp-handler-sa csp cls zen cxw 114 CSP Gateway Configuration Guide
Atypical Options for Windows Apache This method works well in Apache v1.3.x, but may no longer work in Apache v2.0.x (and later). By the CSPFileTypes directive The CSPFileTypes directive works for requests for files that have extensions (such /csp/menu.csp). It does not work for requests for files that do not have file extensions (such as/csp/menu). This parameter is processed by the Gateway’s Apache modules and can be globally defined at the server definition level (in httpd.conf) or restricted within the definition for a location or directory block. By file type: The following directive requests that files of type .xxx and .yyy be processed by CSP. CSPFileTypes .xxx .yyy By location: The following requests that files of type .xxx and .yyy be processed by CSP but only for locations under /csp (including subdirectories, such as /csp/samples and so on). CSPFileTypes .xxx .yyy Using the wildcard character, the following requests that all files under path /csp (and /csp/samples and so on) be processed by CSP. CSPFileTypes * By MIME type In addition to recognizing the file extensions listed above, CSP can also recognize files for the following MIME types: application/x-csp and text/csp For example, to add the file extension xxx to the list of files processed by CSP, use: LoadModule csp_module_sa /cache-install-dir/csp/bin/CSPa22.dll AddType application/x-csp csp cls zen xxx One of the problems with using MIME types to associate types of file with CSP is that Apache checks to ensure that the path to the resource (that is, the hosting directory) physically exists, and returns a file not found error if it does not. It does not, however, check to ensure that the file requested physically exists – which is appropriate for resources served by CSP since they are served by Caché and are virtual as far as the web server is concerned. The “By MIME type” approach is therefore only suitable for cases where the application’s path structure can be replicated on the web server. A.4.2.2 Operating and Managing the Gateway with Apache NSD This connectivity option depends on the CSP Gateway’s Network Service Daemon (NSD). 1. Start the CSP NSD as described in “Operating the Network Service Daemon”. 2. Restart Apache after making changes to its configuration (httpd.conf). The order in which Apache and the NSD are started is unimportant. 3. To access the CSP Web Gateway Management page, point your browser at one of the following locations: http://localhost:/csp/bin/Systems/Module.cxw http://localhost:/csp-bin/nph-CSPcgiSys If you see an Unauthorized User error message, refer to the section on security considerations.
