After being a part of JiveSoftware commercial Enterprise plugin Fastpath Service and Fastpath Webchat have been released as Open Source projects. JiveSoftware is not actively working on it. Bug reports and feature requests probably won't get a fast response. But all community developers are welcome to cotribute their patches and add new features to these projects. In  this document we want to gather any useful information provided by the community about Fastpath service, including tutorials, custom configurations, and also a list of filed bugs and feature requests.

Warning! Fastpath support is broken in Spark 2.6.0 Beta 2 version. But it is restored in the latest SVN versions of Spark.

Fastpath Timeout & ProxyPass http://www.igniterealtime.org/community/message/194959

If you are using Fastpath, with Apache (v. Apache22) proxypass to make Live Chat available via port 80 (or 443/SSL), you may need to set proxy-nokeepalive, no-cache, and downgrade. Otherwise the requests will not be sent and your customers will be left waiting on the timer screen forever.

Hope that helps
