Re: [AOLSERVER] ns_writecontent and POST'ing data to AOLserver 3.5.0

2002-10-17 Thread Dossy
Heh, I discovered it was more errors relating to nsunix/nsvhr ... I
guess I didn't get it 100% right.

The upside is that I'm closer to having nsunix/nsvhr working again
with AOLserver 3.5.0.  :-)

 Other than the recent stacksize increase issue, anyone else run
 up against other changes that need to be made?

 I'm currently busy poking around in gdb, but if anyone else

I think you might have the broken nspostgres.so.  Try patching it or getting a better 
one.  There is a patch at www.aolserver.com.

Re: [AOLSERVER] ArsDigita 13 encoding patches for 3.4.2?

2002-10-17 Thread Eric Larkin
Eric,

We have created a patch for 3.4.2 with the encoding changes from AD+13:

http://sourceforge.net/tracker/index.php?func=detailaid=570072group_id=315
2atid=303152

We use AOLserver 3.4.2 with this patch in production in a Linux environment,
but we do not exercise the full range of encoding functions - we only serve
and receive UTF-8 encoded content.  We have not looked at porting this patch
to 3.5 yet, and probably won't for at least a few months.

On the general topic, we are certainly in agreement that the handling of
character encoding in stock AOLserver is woefully inadequate for
internationally oriented applications, and the release notes for v3.5 do not
suggest that this has been corrected.  We are fervently hoping that
international character encodings (particularly UTF-8 encoding) will be
better supported in v4.0 , but I can't recall any specific comments from the
AOLserver development team on the topic of encoding in spite of multiple
postings by a variety of users...which makes me very afraid that this is not
on the v4.0 feature list.  I would, of course, be happy to receive
clarification to the contrary.  :-)

 Has anyone ported the ArsDigita 13 patches that allow one to specify
 encoding to be used for data written from TCL pages to
 AOLserver 3.4.2? Or
 does anyone know if this has or hasn't been incorporated into 3.5?

Your nssock.so is bad, somehow.  Either it's been built incorrectly, or
installed incorrectly.  Hard to know which, or to be more precise without
more information, such as platform, how you obtained AOLserver, how you
installed it, and so on.

Since you didn't give a --prefix arg to ./configure, it should have
installed in /usr/local/aolserver, and not /pub/AOLserver.  Also, your tcl
./configure specified --prefix=/usr/local/aolserver, yet you make
AOLserver with --with-tcl=/pub/lib, which is not /usr/local/aolserver.
I don't think you have things installed in the right places.  What is in
/pub/AOLserver, and how did it get there?

Hi Jansson,

I really appreciate your quick response!

I am very sorry, looks like something is missing in my previous
mailHowever, I did the installation as mentioned in the README file..but
still I couldn't bring up the web server.

Again, here is the actual installation commands as I did:

For TCL:
% gunzip  tcl8.4.0-src.tar.gz | tar xvf -
% cd tcl8.4.0/unix
% ./configure --prefix=/pub/msp0/ --enable-threads  ## /pub/msp0 is homedir
for AOLserver #
% make test
% make install

For AOLserver:
% gunzip  aolserver-3.5.0.src.tar.gz | tar xvf -
% ./configure --with-tcl=/pub/msp0/lib --prefix=/pub/msp0/
% make test
% make install

(I didn't see any error messages while installing )

Anyways, I am trying re-installe the AOLserver again..

Also, we would like to connect to the INFORMIX database, there is not much
information for Informix. Can you please suggest where can I get the
DRIVERS? The web site mentioned on AOLserver.com is nolonger exists. Please
suggest if you can..

Thanks!

[AOLSERVER] compiling php for aolserver

2002-10-17 Thread Edwin Ho
Hi,

I'm having problems gettig php to work with Aolserver.

this is the command I am using:

./configure --with-aolserver=/usr/local/aolserver/ \
--with-aolserver-src=/usr/local/src/oacs/aolserver/ \
--with-pgsql

no errors, then I compile it. no errors again.

but in my modules directory, there isn't any php module in there.
am I supposed to copy it over manually or have I done something wrong?

Re: [AOLSERVER] compiling php for aolserver

2002-10-17 Thread Patrick Spence
This is what I use:

./configure --enable-mbstring --with-aolserver-src=/usr/local/aolserver-3.4.
2 --with-aolserver=/aolserver --with-mysql --with-pgsql

Then
make
then
make install

which puts the .so into the bin dir appropriately for me.

Make SURE you also consider setting your stacksize parameter in your
config...
ns_section ns/threads
ns_param   stacksize [expr 256*1024]

the default stacksize is 128*1024 and on newer versions of RedHat there is
evidence of problems with the defaults when using PHP.
