[OpenLayers-Users] Proxy.cgi

[truongxuan quang]

Dear Andrés Maneiro

Thank you for your advice, it is clear to me.. I change all my host and scripts 
to ms4w server on Windows without using Mapfish , If you know how to put 
proxy.cgi inside ms4w please help me again. 


Thank you very much 

Quang

Hello Truongxuan,

as far as I know, the proxy available in openlayers.org webpage is for Apache 
webserver. The reason why is needed: 
https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Same_origin_policy_for_JavaScript

In that case, you would put the proxy file in the path for cgi-bin scripts 
(usually /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ in GNU/Linux systems, but it can be configured in 
apache configuration files). And Apache would use it to redirect your petitions 
to the host allowed in the proxy file.

I have no experience with MapFish, but I think it uses internally pylons 
technology which comes with a python light webserver, so it seems you don't need 
Apache. If that's the case, I think that proxy file will not work for you. I 
would suggest you to look in mapfish documentation and ask in mapfish 
mailinglist. I think they will be more helpful for your specific case.

best,
amaneiro
