Spatialreference.org

Currently runs under gunicorn wsgi server proxied through apache.

• Proxy /etc/apache/site-available/sr.org.conf
• Service can be controlled via /etc/init.d/gunicorn
• Configuration file /etc/gunicorn.d/sr.gunicorn (
  • Port 8092
  • workers=4 (Can be modified, gunicorn recommends 2-4x # of cores (which is 4), but I lowered it to see if it plays better with the existing services.)
• Gunicorn is installed via backports

The notes below are for the previous method which is still installed but currently disabled: SR.org lives on its own apache server to prevent it going down and taking out the rest of the projects VM. To fix it:

• cat /var/run/srorgapache.pid for a PID File, and check that that pid is an apache2 file running with the srorg config (using grep).
• Kill this process.
• Run /etc/init.d/srorgapache start

This weird process is a side effect of how the srorgapache init.d script is written; because it is the same process name (apache2), the apache init script will kill the main projects VM if you just run restart.

The server runs on port 8090; it takes about one minute to become available after the server is started. You can access it directly at http://spatialreference.org:8090, and http://spatialreference.org is proxied through the main apache.
