Master Sleepy,

I used the one for sme6, but I found that I could not create individual errordocumments for the individual ibays.  All of them pointed to the same file location.  Is that still supposed to be a feature with this version?  If so, I'll test it.  Where do you want your feedback, here or in the bug-tracker?

Hello,

Normally it should have same effect that the old one.

For bug, I'll ask for new component soon for this contrib.

Master Sleepy,

I don't know if you have a bug section yet, but using the 1.2-1 version of the RPM, when creating a customer error page for the Primary ibay, I get an operation status report - an error occurred while modifying the ibay.

Here is the info from /var/log/messages:

The bolded line is where the errors at.

I am seeing three issues.  Here is what I see.  I have two ibays.  

1.  When you create an errordocument from your panel for the primary ibay,  every ibay gets the same line.  I. E.
<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html>
    ErrorDocument 404 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/404.html
</Directory>

<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/mine/html>
    ErrorDocument 404 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/404.html
    ErrorDocument 404 /home/e-smith/files/ibays/mine/html/mine404.html
</Directory>

2.  But, the output needs to be in this format:
<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html>
    ErrorDocument 404 /404.html
</Directory>

Then this works fine.  

3.  The errordocument I create for my other ibay doesn't work as it's looking for the file in the primary Ibay.  Here is an excerpt from my httpd/error_log:
[Sat May 06 19:00:20 2006] [error] [client 10.10.10.103] File does not exist: /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html/mine404.htm

My 404 errordocument for the mine ibay is mine404.htm.  But, if I move the file to Primary/html, then that error document works as well.  Also the format for ibays needs to be the same as above:
<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/mine/html>
    ErrorDocument 404 /mine404.html
</Directory>

From my reading, it looks like it has to be this way because SME doesn't have a separate virtualhost section for every ibay.

Hope that makes sense.  This is also the same behavior I see with the version I am running on sme 6.

I can't propose any changes at the moment, because I haven't tried to look at the code yet.

Thanks a lot,

John Bennett

OK, so I actually re-read you instructions on the panel and found that I was interpreting them incorrectly.  So, the only real two issues are that whatever you put in for the primary ibay gets written to every ibay and all of the error document files must be located in the Primary ibay as well.

And here are my last comments on this.  The error only comes up when modifying the primary ibay errordocument content.  I suspect it's because the Primary ibay doesn't have a Uid or Gid assigned.

Also, I just created a third ibay and modified it's error document content.  Here are the results in my httpd.conf file

<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/Primary/html>
    ErrorDocument 404 /404.html
</Directory>

<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/mine/html>
    ErrorDocument 404 /404.html
    ErrorDocument 404 /mine404.html  
</Directory>

<Directory /home/e-smith/files/ibays/two/html>
    ErrorDocument 404 /404.html
    ErrorDocument 404 /mine404.html
    ErrorDocument 404 /two404.html
</Directory>

So, as you can see each subsequent ibay gets the added content of the other ibays, instead of just getting its own content added.  The specific errordocuments do work as long as you put them in the Primary ibay.  If you need more info, please let me know.

Hello mrjhb3,

Great thanks for this feedback.
I'll take a close look at that and correct contribs.
It will be done soon

Regards.

Maybe this is something to implement: http://www.interworx.com/forums/archive/index.php/t-12.html

I did it for my own server, not completely finished though. This way you can:
- internationalize your error messages (based on the language settings in the browser of the user viewing your site)
- customize your error message to match the design of your site.

MasterSleepy, have you done any more work on this?

Hello mrjhb3,

I totally forgot that.
I'll try to correct it this week.

Sorry...
