End of Mailing Lists

Hi everyone,

It's been almost 3 years since there was any real activity on the  
moto mailing lists, and there does not seem to be any reason to  
believe that will change.  I've hosted the moto mailing lists since  
the beginning, but soon I will be shutting down the server that  
currently provides this service for projectmoto.org.  Unless I hear  
of good reasons to keep the lists, they will be going away in two weeks.

The users <at>  and devel <at>  mailing lists are archived at Gmane:  http:// 
gmane.org/find.php?list=moto

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Cory

Using XML and XSL in moto? Comments.

Hi

I'm new to moto, and currently I'm looking into using it on my webserver 
as a replacement to PHP after reading an article about it on slashdot.org.

I work with a lot of XML files, which I need to convert to various 
formats using XSL. What I'm wondering is whether anyone has used moto in 
this fashion - essentially editing XML files, and converting said files 
using XSL.

Any comments or accounts on previous attempts would be wonderful.

Thanks.

Phill

MacOS 10.3 (Panther) and trying moto


I'm keen to give moto a bash and was pleasantly surprised by the
clean compile on MacOSX. Hoping to test moto without installing it
into the /usr/local/ hierarchy I supplied another location with the
--prefix= option and seem to have most everything working but the
apache integration.

I've successfully interpreted a file using bin/moto but when trying
to start the apache supplied by Apple with the necessary changes
made in httpd.conf I get the following :

### Pre-Loading Extension 'libmx_codex_db_mysql.so' from
'/Users/daniel/app/moto/mx/codex/db/mysql/libmx_codex_db_mysql.so'

List Active?

Is this list still active or did I just post a stupid question? :)

2.2) 
I wonder if there is a way to set up apache so that if the user put a directory called moto-bin/ in the
public_html directory and put their mod_****.so in it that it would work the same way. That way users can
use jail shell to create moto.so and use them. If possible we'd need a way that wouldn't break apache if they
did something wrong.

Use cases question

I've used markive but it's been a while since I played with moto.
I'm looking into a bit more and have a few uses case questions.

1)If I remember right after you install it you can have a .moto file that is plaiin text and it gets
interpreted each time it's run correct?

If I want to compile one or more .moto files I can folow the instructions at
http://projectmoto.org/usecases.moto

My questions are:
On number 1 it says:
Take the compiled website (mod_sitename.so) and install it in the libexec directory of your apache
installation. Restart apache...

2) So if I move the .so file to the proper directory it will just work, withotu modifying httpd.conf ??

On number 2 it says:
Take the compiled application and distribute it online or burned on a cd without giving away the source
code. Users, customers, clients will not even need moto or any other third party 'runtime' environment to
run it.

3) So how would I execute it as a program?

4) The mmc comands looked identical pretty much, so how does it know if I want a mod_*****.so for apache or
just a plain standalone prog? (***** instead of mod_*****.so)

TIA

Unicode

Hello,

Does Moto support Unicode? E.g., let's say you have a Unicode string 
consisting of two Japanese characters that each take up two bytes. An 
ordinary strlen() function (is it called strlen() in Moto?) will claim 
the string is four characters long (because the string takes up four 
bytes), whereas a Unicode-aware strlen() function will know the string 
is only two characters long. How Unicode-aware is Moto at its present stage?

Is GNU gettext supported?

Apache child process segfault

Hello,

I'm having problems using Moto with Apache: Whenever I load a page, an 
older, incomplete, or blank version of the page shows up, and I get this 
message in the Apache error log:

[notice] child pid 2317 exit signal Segmentation fault (11)

This happens even if I uncomment the lines in httpd.conf that load the 
PHP module, so the problem is not related to often mentioned PHP/MySQL 
problem.

Here's my lines in httpd.conf:

LoadModule moto_module        /usr/lib/apache/mod_moto.so
AddModule mod_moto.c

<IfModule mod_moto.c>
	AddHandler moto .moto
</IfModule>

Whenever I restart Apache, the Moto module seems to load fine. From the 
error log:

### Pre-Loading Extension 'libmx_moto.so' from 
'/usr/local/mx/moto/libmx_moto.so'
### Pre-Loading Extension 'libmx_cstdlib.so' from 
'/usr/local/mx/cstdlib/libmx_cstdlib.so'
### Pre-Loading Extension 'libmx_codex_db_pgsql.so' from 
'/usr/local/mx/codex/db/pgsql/libmx_codex_db_pgsql.so'
