Is there a way to run Sahriswiki without a proxy pass?

[PeteBleackley]

I am trying to set up a Sahriswiki instance on a shared Dreamhost account. Because it's a shared account, I can't access the Apache config file, and whenever I ask Dreamhost support to do anything for me, they refuse and tell me to upgrade my account (which I can't do, because it's a shared account). Is there a way to run Sahriswiki without setting up a proxy?

Does Dreamhost support running WSGI apps?

Apparently it does.

Then I'll provide an option to run this as a WSGI app shortly. THanks for the feedback!

Any progress on this?

I'm sorry I did try to get this working as a plain 'ol wsgi app but unfortunately it turned out to be a lot more effort than I thought. I haven't gotten back to this yet due to time constraints. Sorry :/

Can I help with this at all?

[prologic]

Yes you can! Let me put up the code so far in a branch. There are some issues that need to be worked out; but it's dosable.

I started this branch

Hope you can help :)

It seems that there's something in the list returned by the application's call method that isn't a string, but I haven't been able to work out why. Will share to try to get more help

[PeteBleackley]

It seems this is a 2/3 issue with wsgiref. The application is returning unicode where wsgiref expects str.

[prologic]

Oh I see. Where is the bug? I presume in circuits.web.wsgi.Application?

Can you send a PR to fix this?

I've managed to get an instance up and running at http://sources.conlang.org/

[prologic]

I WoW! Very nicely done! Do you mind sharing how you did this for the benefit of others and/or submit any patches required?

cheers James

Do you want to submit a PR with a file like this in scripts/ maybe?
