vtiger

[mikecrowe]

Hi folks,

Is anybody else chafing over having to run Apache on a personal system for development?

I'm developing for vtiger on a local system, and using XAMPP as the base.

However, what a big system.

I stumbled across (don't laugh): http://nanoweb.si.kz/. So, I got to thinking:
Install MySQL locally. Not too big a drain on system.
Use PHP-CLI to run a simple web server.

I installed, and actually got the install script coming up. I ran into an issue with mysql_pconnect not being supported, and dropped until I had more time to research.

So, I also found http://www.lighttpd.net/. Small, light http server. Also http://www.javascript.nu/xerver/ as light java based server.

So, here's my question: For developing, anybody have any thought on this?

IIRC if the server isn't multi-threaded then persistant connections simply won't work since there is no parent process that is keeping the link in a connected state after the execution of a page.

Hi Mike!

Yes, I had thought about that. Just that, I did not want to get too much into it at this stage.
But, I think you are right. We must diversify into those areas also and look beyond what we have now.
Wonder how we get the php thing running on a java webserver. I am not sure.

But, I do like the idea. Let us get the forge up and then, we can have subprojects on this. What say?
