Topic: SMEServer as Application server

[hendrikus]

I want to move my application server from OpenSuse to the SMEserver, normaly we create subdomains with the applications like:

http://crm.mycompany.com
http://erp.mycompany.com
http://dms.mycompany.com

When creating this domains in SME I need to link them to I-bays and not like normaly to http://mycompany.com/crm/ .
I see some note's thats it's not wise to use the I-Bay for install applications and the advise is to use /opt/crm/ but I couldn't find a description in detail how to do this. Where I can find clear explenation.

If you want to do that, then you don't want to use the template fragments in /etc/e-smith/templates/etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/VirtualHost/. You don't have to.

cd /etc/e-smith/templates.custom
mkdir -p etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/CRMHost
vi etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf/CRMHost/xxx

db domains setprop crm.mycompany.com TemplatePath CRMHost
expand-template /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf

You now have complete control over the virtual host definition for crm.mycompany.com.

Do similar for dms and erp.
