C.Frank Wolfe,
How did =you manage to stop the server from rewriting the config file? This is my =problem right =now.

Brian,
Thanks for all your hard work =and documentation.
After I got the server to stop rewriting =the app config file, this worked =perfectly.

Installing WebDNA 7 on OSX Mavericks Server - =InstructionsI just went through the process of upgrading my =Mac Mini server from OS X 10.8 Mtn Lion Server to 10.9 Mavericks Server, =which broke my WebDNA installation, so I wanted to bring this to the =attention of anyone else who may be wanting to do the same thing. The =two main culprits were:
- My Java Runtime installation was =deleted with the Mavericks installation
- My mod_fastcgi.so file got deleted =with the Mavericks installation
I created detailed instructions for installing WebDNA 7 FastCGI under =OSX 10.9 Mavericks Server, which are posted below. Please note that this =applies specifically to Mavericks SERVER. The process is similar if =you=92re using client, but the apache config files names and locations =are a bit different. Hopefully this information is helpful to =someone.
Brian Wachter

Topic: WebDNA 7 FastCGI installation process for OSX Mavericks =SERVER:
Step 1:
If you=92re UPGRADING from an earlier version of OSX, first copy =mod_fastcgi.so located at /usr/libexec/apache2 since the Mavericks =install will delete this file if it exists.
Step 2:
Install mod_fastcgi.so by placing a copy of the file at =/usr/libexec/apache2/
Set permissions on mod_fastcgi.so to be the same as other .so files in =that directory.
(i.e., system=3Dread/write,wheel=3Dreadonly,everyone=3Dreadonly)
Step 3:
Install JAVA for OS X 2013-005
This is Java Runtime Edition 6 (v1.6.0_65)
Verify the install by typing =93java -version=94 at the terminal command =line
More information at: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL=1572
NOTE: At the time of this writing, Java Runtime 7 Update 45 is the =latest version available from the Oracle web site. However, this did not =work and I reverted to version 6. I=92m not sure why, but I suspect it =is an issue with where Java is installed.
Step 4:
For EACH web site domain (i.e., virtual host), place a copy of the =/WebDNA folder here:
/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/<myDomainDirectory>/
Step 5:
Place a copy of WebDNA.fcgi executable inside each of the /WebDNA =folders
chmod 755 WebDNA.fcgi
Step 6:
Open your httpd_server_app.conf =(/Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/httpd_server_app.conf) and make sure =that both of the following modules are loaded. The mod_rewrite.so should =be loaded by default, but you will need to add the entry for loading =mod_fastcgi.so
LoadModule rewrite_module = libexec/apache2/mod_rewrite.so
LoadModule fastcgi_module = libexec/apache2/mod_fastcgi.so
Step 7:
Open your httpd_server_app.conf and add these lines...
<#-----------------------
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
FastCGIServer =/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/<myDomainDirectory1>/WebDNA/WebDNA.fc=gi -idle-timeout 60 -processes 1
FastCGIServer =/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/<myDomainDirectory2>/WebDNA/WebDNA.fc=gi -idle-timeout 60 -processes 1
FastCGIServer =/Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/<myDomainDirectory3>/WebDNA/WebDNA.fc=gi -idle-timeout 60 -processes 1
</IfModule>
#-----------------------
=85 I did this just after the following directive:
<IfModule mime_module>
=85
</IfDefine>
Step 8:
To hide some specific WebDNA-related files, add these lines in the =httpd_server_app.conf, just below the lines you added in Step 7.
#-----------------------
<FilesMatch ".*\.(db|inc|conf|ini)$">
Deny from all = &n=bsp; &nbs=p; = &n=bsp; &nbs=p;
</FilesMatch>
#-----------------------
Step 9:
Create a file to be included by your virtual hosts. To do this, follow =these steps:
1. Create a directory called =93webdna_includes=94 located at =/Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/
2. Set permissions on this directory to be =system=3Dread/write,wheel=3Dreadonly,everyone=3Dreadonly
3. Create a plain text file named =93webdna_vhost.conf=94 inside this =directory with the following contents:
<IfModule mod_fastcgi.c>
Action webdna-fastcgi =/WebDNA/WebDNA.fcgi
AddHandler =webdna-fastcgi .dna
AddHandler =webdna-fastcgi .html
</IfModule>
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule .* - =[E=3DHTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
</IfModule>
NOTE: The reason you make the include file rather than put the =directives directly in your virtual host configuration file is that =Server.app will sometimes wipe these directives when reconfiguring web =services. If you use the include file, Server.app will not touch the =include call.
Step 10:
Edit each configuration file for your virtual hosts to include the call =to the file you created in Step 9. The virtual host config files are =located at /Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/Sites/ and they take the =form shown below for non-SSL sites and SSL-enabled sites, =respectively.
0000_X.X.X.X_80_<myDomainDirectory>.conf
0000_X.X.X.X_443_<myDomainDirectory>.conf
So, open the virtual host config file and add the following line at the =very end just before the closing </VirtualHost> tag.
Include =/Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/webdna_includes/webdna_vhost.conf
Step 11:
Make sure that you add index.dna as a default index type for each =WebDNA-enabled site you host. Do this in Mavericks by opening =Server.app, selecting Websites under Services in the left-side pane, =open your domain to edit and then select the "edit" button next to ="Index Files:". In the drop-down sheet, select + and add "index.dna" to =the list.
Step 12:
Make sure =93dna=94 is included in your MIME types. To do this, edit the =file =93mime.types=94 located at /private/etc/apache2/ and add the =following line:
application/vnd.dna dna
Step 13:
Restart apache by toggling the Websites service Off/On or by typing the =following command in terminal.app
apachectl restart
Step 14:
Connect your browser to http://www.dom=ain1.com/WebDNA/Admin/AdminPrefs.dna to manage site1,
http://www.dom=ain2.com/WebDNA/Admin/AdminPrefs.dna to manage site2 etc...
The default login is =93admin=94 and the default password is =93admin=94
If the login fails, verify that you have the following lines in your =virtual host configuration file (either directly or via an include =file):
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule .* - =[E=3DHTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization},L]
</IfModule>
That should do it.
