Application Programming & Plugins

Application programs are pluged in and configured via the files:

Site global applications

/maxscape/lib/perl/Maxscape/SiteApplication.pm
/maxscape/lib/perl/Maxscape/SiteConfiguration.pm
/maxscape/lib/perl/Maxscape/SiteApplication/Page.pm
/maxscape/lib/perl/Maxscape/GlobalServerApplication.pm

Application server global applications

/maxscape/server/'your server'/lib/perl/Maxscape/ServerApplication.pm
/maxscape/server/'your server'/lib/perl/Maxscape/ServerConfiguration.pm

Process Applications

/maxscape/server/Maxscape/lib/perl/Maxscape/ProcessApplication.pm

Often it is wise to create some other application modules and to include them in one of the above files. For example:

# File '/maxscape/lib/perl/Maxscape/SiteConfiguration.pm':
...
use your_prefix::YourModul.pm
...

Restarting the Server after a change

After changing a modul, you have to restart the server,e.g. with:

maxscape restart ; wwwerrs

or just kill the concerned FCGI process. By the way the 'wwwerrs' tcsh alias displays the log files of the apache server.
