:-(, it seems that putting in the template for the DAG repository puts this page also in the Yum_Repository category which is not my intention, will try to find a workaround - [[User:Cactus|Cactus]] 02:56, 11 April 2007 (EDT)

'''DAG repository'''

I have noticed with any of the repos it place expand-template /etc/yum.conf at the bottom, however, when the command is run, an error is given
 +
expand-template /etc/yum.conf
 +
 +
-bash: expand-temlpate: command not found
 +
 +
/sbin/e-smith/expand-template /etc/yum.conf
    
After quickly reviewing your contribution I would suggest you to rewrite your howto as not to install in an ibay as this is not prefferred behaviour, use /opt or something like that for beter customizability. - [[User:Cactus|Cactus]] 02:58, 11 April 2007 (EDT)

Those option above I have tried and they don't work. Don't you need something like <VirtualHost 0.0.0.0:80> and all that

I have attempted many different ways and I have found that the ibay option works best, if I could find a method for the opt/ I would use that for sure.

I make a minor modification in your howto about expand template.
 +
I go to install under /opt dir and tell you the results.

Finally I run metadot under /opt. The following is the template dir
 +
 +
Alias /metadot /opt/metadot/metadot
 +
Alias /images/ /opt/metadot/images/
 +
Alias /js/ /opt/metadot/js/
 +
Alias /index.pl /opt/metadot/metadot/index.pl
 +

Alias /skins/    /opt/metadot/sitedata/skins/
 +
Alias /htmlarea3/ /opt/metadot/js/htmlarea3/
 +
Alias /private/  /opt/metadot/sitedata/private/
 +
Alias /userchannel.pl /opt/metadot/metadot/userchannel.pl
 +
 +
<Directory /opt/metadot>
 +
    Options +Indexes +Includes +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews +ExecCGI
 +
    AllowOverride All
 +
    allow from all
 +
    AddHandler  cgi-script .pl
 +
    PerlHandler speedy::Registry
 +
    PerlSendHeader      On
 +
    DirectoryIndex      index.pl
 +
</Directory>
 +
 +
Pay attention to the differences, and try to fix the ibay template. For example AddHandler cgi-scipt .pl and not .cgi
 +
 +
Also not necesary DocumentRoot and ServerName. I try different settings and +ExecCGI run ok in the first Oprtions line. Not include a second Options.
 +
 +
I have untarring under /opt/metadot and move the content /opt/metadot/html to /opt/metadot like you do with ibay placement.
 +
 +
Well, try and comment.

This is back where I started, What my original problem was that I wanted to have more than 1 Metadot Portal, say for 3 domains and I didn't want the metadot in the url, just the domain name without /metadot.
 +
 +
currently I have my main domain in the opt/ but I cannot load the others, it keeps loading the primary domain, this is where I gave up and just loaded metadot into each ibay for different domains.
 +
 +
How do I point a domain name to opt/
 +
 +
 +
----
 +
Probably you need to use modrewrite engine. Maybe put .htaccess file in the ibay associated to domain, and depending the request, modrewrite route to /opt dir. I have never try to routed a fully domain name to /opt dir. For this I use ibays. Anyway I continue to testing the configuration.

== modrewrite & htaccess ==
 +
 +
I have made several attempts with these with not much success. is there a way to create a template fragement with virtualhost like this post [http://forums.contribs.org/index.php?topic=36526.0[contribs post on virtualhost]]
 +
 +
I have found with more than 1 metadot configuration can interfer with each other, how is it possible to seperate them
 +
 +
www.domain.com
 +
 +
www.domain1.com
 +
 +
www.domain2.com

Russell, your howto is very good, but while found a solution, finish the howto.
 +
 +
I suggest you to modify for install only under /opt.
 +
 +
This is the final template I tested.
 +
 +
Please, delete the point about "Adding index.pl to DirectoryIndex" because it is not necesary. Simple remove the file  50DirectoryIndex00 under templates-custom and expand/restart to return to original state.

OK, what I did was make some changes to the template fragements and also made modifications to metadot.conf in /opt/metadot/etc for virtual host. This has now allowed both domains access without interfering with each other
