More alternate server possibilities

Not so much a complete system, but if you’ve been looking to get Sync working on Nginx, there’s a solution available. It’s a pretty impressive piece of work!

    Do you know of anyone who has gotten sync server running on dreamhost (shared, without access to apache conf)? is this even possible?

    • simon Says:

      you need mod_rewrite active in apache (which should be the case on dramhost, according to: http://wiki.dreamhost.com/Mod_rewrite).
      then put something likethe following into your .htaccess:
      DirectoryIndex index.php
      RewriteEngine On
      RewriteBase /weave
      RewriteRule ^(.*) index.php [L]

      with this there’s no need to have access to apache conf.

      nb: you’ll need to edit the create user file so as to make it accept arguments, rather than asking for them via stdin..

    So his entry is from march. Is it still suggested to use the minimal server, or should we rather setup the full?

  3. Stefan Says:

    The minimal server isn’t working anymore with Sync 1.5:

    Sync encountered an error while syncing: Unknown error

    My access.log only has status-200 entries, so i have no idea what the problem is.

    • Stefan Says:

      Hm, after i disabled History syncing the error is gone. verbose-log.txt showed:

      Service.Main DEBUG Null id for anno! (invalid uri) No traceback available

      for the history sync.

        Yeah, that error is a client error and has been fixed in Sync 1.5.1. It’s independent of the server.
