Anyterm Forum

I haven't seen that error before.

The "API module structure" is defined at the very end of apache.cc.  It defines the entry points into the Anyterm code from Apache.  But it defines a module called "anyterm", not "anyterm_module".

I wonder if you have done something wrong in your Apache config.  Please post the LoadModule line that you are using.  Have you changed anything in the .htaccess file?  What version of Apache are you using?

--Phil.

p.s. why 1.1.6?

Hi Richard,

k6ek never replied, but my strong feeling was that his LoadModule line was wrong.  What have you used?

--Phil.

Well at least you know where the problem is now.

If you find a way to make SUSE do the right thing, please post it here.

Otherwise, you could change the declaration at the very end of apache.cc so that it says "anyterm_module" rather than "anyterm".

--Phil.

Try it with this line changed:

  -1,
  "anyterm_module",

but this one NOT changed:

  module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA anyterm = {


Earlier in the file there is this:

  // If request does not have handler "anyterm", decline it so that
  // other handlers get the chance to look at it.
  if (string(r->handler)!="anyterm") {
    return DECLINED;
  }

You might try changing that "anyterm" to "anyterm_module".

You can also use some sort of nm|grep on the object files to look for any 'anyterm' symbols.

Let me know how you get on....

Phil.

Hi Phil,

ive changed the following:

apache.cc:

54 extern module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA anyterm_module;

153 static int anyterm_handler(request_rec* r)
154 {
155   // If request does not have handler "anyterm", decline it so that
156   // other handlers get the chance to look at it.
157   if (string(r->handler)!="anyterm_module") {
158     return DECLINED;
159   }
160

177     anyterm_dir_config_t* config =
178       (anyterm_dir_config_t*)ap_get_module_config(r->per_dir_config, &anyterm_module);

256 module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA anyterm_module = {
257
258   // Normally one uses the macro "STANDARD20_MODULE_STUFF" here, but
259   // that uses __FILE__ to get the module name.  This file is called
260   // "apache.cc" so that is not ideal.  Instead, write it out in full
261   // and give "anyterm" as the module name.
262   MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER_MAJOR,
263   MODULE_MAGIC_NUMBER_MINOR,
264   -1,
265   "anyterm_module",

Now suse apache2 sucessfully loads the anyterm modul,but when i access the anyterm.html, there is an error message in apaches error_log:

[Thu Jan 03 21:45:35 2008] [error] [client xxxxxxxx] File does not exist: /srv/www/htdocs/anyterm1/anyterm-module, referer: http://xx.xx.xx.xx/anyterm1/anyterm.html.

Any ideas ?

Thanks for you help and a great piece of software.

Hi Phil,

works now :-),

I owe you a beer..

Cheers

I modified:

apache.cc:
extern module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA anyterm_module;

// Apache configuration commands:
--
  // other handlers get the chance to look at it.
  if (string(r->handler)!="anyterm_module") {
    return DECLINED;
  }
--
    anyterm_dir_config_t* config =
      (anyterm_dir_config_t*)ap_get_module_config(r->per_dir_config, &anyterm_module);
    command = expand_command(config->command,r,request);
    //    }
--

module AP_MODULE_DECLARE_DATA anyterm_module = {

  // Normally one uses the macro "STANDARD20_MODULE_STUFF" here, but
--
  -1,
  "anyterm_module",
  NULL,
  NULL,

apachemod/Makefile:
install: FORCE
        $(APXS) -n anyterm_module -i anyterm.la

browser/.htaccess:
<IfModule anyterm_module>

# Use an anyterm_command directive to specify the command to run
--
<Files anyterm-module>
  SetHandler anyterm_module

  # To avoid logging Anyterm requests, which is a good idea since they
--

<IfModule !anyterm_module>
# This file contains a message saying that the module is not loaded:
DirectoryIndex module_not_loaded.html

Then recompile with: make veryclean; make; sudo make install

But the error persist.

I think the file "htaccess" it is not processing. When type localhost/anyterm not index anyterm.html

I add trash in .htaccess and the only error is:
[Wed Feb 27 15:28:25 2008] [error] [client 192.168.1.250] File does not exist: /srv/www/htdocs/Anyterm/anyterm-module, referer: http://inodoro/Anyterm/anyterm.html

I put in http.conf :
<Directory />
    Options None
    AllowOverride ALL
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
</Directory>
# use .htaccess files for overriding,
AccessFileName .htaccess
# and never show them
<Files ~ "^\.ht">
    Order allow,deny
    Deny from all
</Files>

Sorry, Http.conf have very much include.

In /etc/apache2/default-server.conf put Allowoverride none

Then deactive (is it??) SSL (don't ahve the module) and is OK.

Next step: config anyterm_command

thanks

Please note also the _module. I am not a Programmer, but could it be that the missing _module is a bug in anyterm?

It is certainly true that all of the modules supplied with Apache have names that end _module.  But I have not seen anything in any Apache documentation saying the module names *must* end with _module.  On the contrary, I have never written a module whose name ends _module, and this has always worked perfectly for me.  The only situation in which it causes trouble is for SUSE users; no other distribution seems to make the same assumption.

I do, however, plan to change Anyterm to use the name anyterm_module in order to make life easier for SUSE users.  But this is not high on my list of things to do.  If anyone would like to send a tested patch against SVN HEAD then that would make things easier for me.
