Hi Dave,

You are correct. I am obioulsy mistaken. In my development (non production) app which I run on a local machine (not digital ocean) I use plack via plackup -p 5000 bin/app.psgi. However, going through my old notes I now rememeber that I was not able to incorporate plack with my starman configuration above. I tried and for reasons that I cannot remember was unsuccessful and opted for:

program => '/usr/local/bin/starman',
program_args => [ '--workers', '3', '/home/starman/Almslete/bin/app.psgi' ],

Specifically, I believe that I originally tried something like:

program => 'plackup -E deployment -s Starman',
plackup -E deployment -s Starman --workers=10 -p 5001 -a bin/app.psgi

Any advice on how I can move forward on incorporating plack so that I can then incorporate Plack::Middleware::Static would of course be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I have the following nginx configuration that I believe -- or at least hope

-- serves up my static files, like images ad videos, directly without
invoking my dancer app. Can anyone tells me if this is the case or not, or
how I can test to see if they are indeed being served directly by NGINX?

Before you go too far down this route, have you considered using
Plack::Middleware::Static instead?

Hi Dave,

Thanks for the reply. I think I am already using it via starman.

use Daemon::Control;

use Cwd qw(abs_path);

Daemon::Control->new(
{
name => "Starman",
lsb_start => '$syslog $remote_fs',
lsb_stop => '$syslog',
lsb_sdesc => 'Starman Short',
lsb_desc => 'Starman controls the web sites.',
path => abs_path($0),

program => '/usr/local/bin/starman',
program_args => [ '--workers', '3',
'/home/starman/mydomain/bin/app.psgi' ],

user => 'starman',
group => 'starman',

pid_file => '/tmp/starman.pid',
stderr_file => '/tmp/starman.err',
stdout_file => '/tmp/starman.out',

fork => 2,

}
)->run;

I can't see an evidence of you using Plack::Middleware::Static (or, indeed, any Plack middleware).

It would't be added to your Starman runner, it would be in your app.psgi (as described in the Pod that I linked to).

Dave...
