+  * [[Apache]] is set up to use ''%%index.cgi%%'' as ''%%DirectoryIndex%%''.
+  * A [[https://www.varnish-cache.org/|Varnish]] instance in front of Apache ensures that ''%%index.cgi%%'' does not need to run more than once every two minutes.

+===== index.cgi script =====
 The ''%%index.cgi%%'' script generates the HTML summary.  Although intended to be used as a CGI script (as the name indicates), it can also be run from the command line, or from a cron job, in which case it will look for logs in the directory in which the script itself is located.  It will automatically detect the context, and output HTTP headers only if run as a CGI script.

 The ''%%success()%%'' subroutine scans a //brief// log file to determine whether the build was successful.  This is done quite simply by searching for the string "tinderbox run completed".

   * One weakness of the current summary script is that it relies on colors to distinguish successful from failed builds.  I have tried to find a better way&mdash;adding "FAIL" or "OK" to each table cell depending on the outcome of the corresponding build, for instance&mdash;but everything I've come up with has increased the size of the summary page to the point where it won't fit in a browser without scrolling, even on 1600x1200.
