Thank you very much. Very straightforward compared to some of the other sites I found. I could not get authentication or push for that matter without going to hgwebdir.wsgi instead of hgweb.

I installed on the non-server distro of Lucid, so it needed apache2, openssh, and of course mod-wsgi.

After some tweaking, everything is working.

I typically use this snippet to help make my code “directory path agnostic”

Thanks Sergio.

Yep i was aware but i didn’t think my article were useful and ranked on google. But it’s starting to have a lot of visits now and i think i’ll update the article with the useful informations about ssl support.

If you already did it and you wanna share that knowledge just send me the new configuration: i’ll be glad to post it 🙂

See ya

Nice post!

Probably you are aware of that but I’ll tell just in case: when you setup apache authentication without SSL, in other words, not using https, your password goes plain in the request.

In that case try not to access your repo from unsecured networks and mainly in geek conferences 😉

Cheers!

Hey, nice article.

I ran into trouble with this setup. When I enable my mercurial plugin, my trac complains:

IOError: sys.stdin access restricted by mod_wsgi

I know wsgi does not allow access to the stdin and stdout for security reasons, but I don’t anyone complaining about this ?

Have you seen this issue ?

Well, since you’re already hacking in ubuntu 10.04 — any help/tutorial on setting up a D dev stack with GDC and Tango in this distro?
The problem is:
– GDC is included in official repo (this is good actually!)
– ppa d-language-packagers seem to only include libtango-daily-ldc-dev (and official repo only libtango-ldc-dev) and no -gdc version
– no DSSS
