svn and trac on apache

[prale]

Hello, it took me 3 days to find out that mod_evasive denied all subversion connections.
Please add this notice to the wiki, "how to make ispcp more secure", it's read-only so I can't change it.

Also I have a question.
My subversion runs with mod_python.
Now I added the subversion and trac virtualhost blocks in the /etc/apache2/apache2.conf, just above the include of the sites-available.

Actually I want to use it in a subdomain created by ispcp.
Is this possible? And where can I add the virtualhost block without the risk that ispcp overwrites it when regenerating the config?

Also how can I dissable mod_evasive on this subdomain? And still use it for all other (sub)domains?

/etc/apache2/ispcp/sub.your-domain.conf
You just have to add the location-part of your vhost-entry.

Code:

<Location /dev>
   SetHandler mod_python
   PythonHandler trac.web.modpython_frontend
   PythonPath "sys.path + ['/usr/share/trac']"
   PythonOption TracEnv /var/trac/wiki
   PythonOption TracUriRoot /dev
</Location>
<Location /dev/login>
   AuthType Basic
   AuthName "Login"
   AuthUserFile /var/www/virtual/domain.com/trac.htpasswd
   Require valid-user
</Location>

Thats my entry for Trac.
Set Location to root (/) did not work with login.

For the sake of it :

I'll recommend using trac with fastcgi

1) it can be run with the same user as the other scripts in your domain
2) it doesn't bloat apache that much as mod_python does (trac uses clearsilve template engine which uses up to 140M of Ram. If you're running that on apache/mpm_worker than each child (child not thread) will take the same amount since something in the code makes SHM unavailable between these processes.
Fastcgi / trac uses SHM area as such its ~140 (1x)

Oki, thanks for that hint.

Thanks Achmed, it works

What is the vhost config for running trac on fastcgi?
And can this also be done in /etc/apache2/ispcp/sub.your-domain.conf?
