Problems with Apache 2.0.39 and WebTier

rbuser

Hi, I have problems to use the WebTier-Solution on Apache.

My configuration: Delphi 7, RB-Server7 for Delphi7, Apache 2.0.39
I have configured Apache for the WebTier, same as in your example.

1. I have changed the paths in your example Apache(Webtier).
When I start the Report.dll, I get an ApacheError. :

: ISAPI: failed to load C:/Apache2/rbbin/Report.dll

2. I create a new Apache Shared Module, not the Demo from Digital.
When I start the Report.dll, I get an ApacheError.

: ISAPI: missing GetExtensionVersion() in C:/Apache2/rbbin/Report.dll


Any ideas?

Try building an Apache shared module rather than an ISAPI module. The
RBServer\Demos\WebTier\Apache\ReadMe.doc contains step by step details for
building an Apache shared module and configuring an Apache server. As noted
in the ReadMe.doc, the example was tested using Apache Web Server v1.3.24.
Make sure that you add the appropriate entries to the Apache config file:
C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\Conf \httpd.conf.

I do not know whether D7's WebBroker can build an Apache shared module that
supports Apache 2.x. Perhaps check the Delphi docs and the Borland Delphi
newsgroups.

My knowledge of Apache is very limited. Perhaps try to first build an Delphi
Apache shared module that does not involve the webtier. Just display a
simple test page. Once you get that working, try adding the WebTier.
