Another other key in using it on IIS or PWS is to remark out the
#cgi-bin-location line at the beginning of
scripts. If you don't IIS & PWS get very confused and spend time looking for
it, will often freeze or timeout.

[REBOL] FTP error - tcp 425

2000-01-07 Thread timmins

Hi,

I'm trying to use REBOL to upload a file to my web site using a command 
like the following, but I keep getting this error. I called my ISP and they 
said they don't use a proxy. Actually, last night I think the error was 
"... tcp 500 (PORT none,...)" but I can't remember the rest. 

>> write %file.html read ftp://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]/public/index.html
connecting to: members.dca.net
** User Error: Server error: tcp 425 Can't build data connection: 
Connection refused..

My set-net information is just my email address and mail server followed by 
4 "none"s. I was able to read a text file from an anonymous ftp site and 
write it my hard drive, if that means anything. Is there a setting I'm 
missing, or am I just doing something incorrectly?

Thanks,
Joel

It's nothing you can do from a batch file or script, and, you're

the same way. Someone tried to do a setup executable for perl to do

when using Web services and CGIs on Win32, at least as soon as you step away

Maybe it'll be alright when Windows 3000 comes out - lol ... I've been rying
to get REBOL to work on PWS for month and I have given up long ago.
At least we all get the same error message about headers - I even got the

[REBOL] POP from CGI doesn't work

2000-01-07 Thread mah

POP from CGI doesn't work
I'm trying to make the sample from rebol.org working as a CGI-app.

(I've sligly modified the code only to display the 2 first messages.)

---begin mailview.r---
REBOL [
Title: "Email Viewer (as web page)"
File:  %mailview.r
Date:  10-Sep-1999
Purpose: {
This example displays all of your pending email
as an HTML web page. (But does not remove it.)
}
Note: {
Does not remove the mail from the server.
See the popspec.r file for examples of how
to setup your mailbox connection.
}
]

html: make string! 1  ; where new page is stored
emit: func [data] [append html reduce data]

inbox: open load %popspec.r  ;file contains POP email box info

emit [

"Mailbox Summary for " now/date " " now/time 
length? inbox " message(s)" 

]

for count 1 2 1 [
mail: import-email pick inbox count
emit [

"From:" first mail/from 
"Subject:" mail/subject 
"Length:" length? mail/content 
 
]
]

emit []
close inbox
print html
---end   mailview.r---

---begin popspec.r---
REBOL [
Title: "POP Email Port Spec"
File:  %popspec.r
Date:  10-Sep-1999
Purpose: {
POP port specification used to connect to an email
server. All of the mail reading examples use this.
}
Note: {
You can specify either a URL or a block containing
the necessary information to open the POP port.
The block approach is more general, as the username
and password can be prompted for at run time.
}
]

;pop://user:[EMAIL PROTECTED]  ; use this, or use:
[
scheme: 'pop
user: "name"
pass: "pass1"
host: "domain.com"  ; uncomment if needed.
]
---end   popspec.r---

Everything works fine if the program is runned from REBOL. I've tried
both on Win32 and FreeBSD. I've tried it with '--cgi' and '-cs'. It
works fine.

When I run the program from a webserver (I've tried 24Link on Win32,
and Apache on FreeBSD, I get a "500 Server Error".

What is wrong? When the program runs fine outside a webserver, and
doesn't run inside one? I've made other REBOL programs, and they run
well, on a webserver, but when I use "open pop://" it just hangs.

Is this a security issue? Isn't it enought to use '-cs'?

Yours faithfully

This will not work imho :-)

as for "ringing bells"

Again, you are going to reach end of the string, then going back recursively
until first "ing" (applied from end of the string) is not matched. :

>> b: [skip markb: (print ["markb: " markb index? markb]) b | back-b: (print
["back-b: " back-b in
dex? back-b]) "ing"]
== [skip markb: (print ["markb: " markb index? markb]) b | back-b: (print
["back-b: " back-b index
? back-b]) "ing"]
>> parse str a
markb:  inging bells 2
markb:  nging bells 3
markb:  ging bells 4
markb:  ing bells 5
markb:  ng bells 6
markb:  g bells 7
markb:   bells 8
markb:  ells 10
markb:  lls 11
markb:  ls 12
markb:  s 13
markb:   14
back-b:   14
back-b:  s 13
back-b:  ls 12
back-b:  lls 11
back-b:  ells 10
back-b:  bells 9
back-b:  g bells 7
back-b:  ng bells 6
back-b:  ing bells 5
== false

Your code will fail with something like "ringing sounding bell" ... it will match
sounding, so generally said - the last occurance of "ing" contained in the string
...

And because of that, second part of 'a - {to "ing" [sep to end | a]}will be NEVER
applied, as your pointer is just behind last occurance of "ing" contained in your
string ... that's why you got false result.

change 'a to [b to end] and once succesfully back from 'b, it will continue "to
end" and return "true" ...

Hi!

I had not much time to read this mailing list in the last weeks. But then
I saw a thread which really got quite big. And all the people told
everyone "Me too!"... First I was annoyed, but now I browsed to the
original mail of this thread... and I think Rebol/View sounds damn cool.
So if there will be a beta version for Amiga (please, Carl, Please!!!)
count me in... And here you have it:

Me too!

(Isn't that getting on anyone's nerves? ;-)

Maybe I can even use Rebol at some time in the future to help me
coordinating AmigaOS 3.5+ betatest. Currently I use Fiasco and ARexx which
also works quite well. But imagine I could put up the bug report database
on the web for developers and betatesters using Rebol ;-).

Or at least make bug reporting media independand... thus email, www, or
executing a rebol script to submit a bug report, no matter how, its would
always be there.

I always waited to Rebol to get some kind of a GUI in the spirit of
REBOL... REBOL really deserves to be able to drive GUI driven powerful
applications ;-).

So, 

me too! ;-)

Aha, I just thought that you thought "ing" is matched or skip is performed, not
knowing of recursion. Well, I should look better at your email adress, as I would
recognize, you are experienced reboller :-)

Anyway ... your example will fail with "ing" being present somewhere in middle of
the text ... I would even sincerely dare to say - it has no sense. You are nesting
to recursion while end of string is not matched (let's imagine some 1000 chars =
1000 subrules) and then backtracking by one char, while "ing" or we are not back
at the beginning of string ... Or am I wrong?

No, no chance, You have no chance to match "ing". It will always reach the end of
the string. Once returning to upper levels from recursion, backtracking starts

It can't because of the reasons mentioned above ...

Well, that set of instructions has worked for others before.  The HTTP 
header problem may be there if your script does not print out a line
like "content-type: text/html" at the top with a blank line after it.
And usually REBOL is popping up because the -c or --cgi option was not 
set up properly so that REBOL runs in CGI mode.

I thikn that info for WinNT may have been missing the --cgi part in
the line 'c:\path\to\rebol.exe --cgi %s %s'.  There should be a --cgi
in there to prevent the window from popping up and do all the useful
CGI stuff.

Ah, then I just got you wrong. The easy way to do the above is first to split
the text up with

parse str none

and then match the individual words. However, this should work too:

sep: charset " ,.!?" ; and whatever else you want to split up words
b: [skip b | "ing"]
a: [b | to "ing" [sep to end | a]]
parse str a

though it's completely untested, and I agree that it's ugly :-)

>Actually, I think your suggestion is equivalent to the rule:

No, as this rule wouldn't return true on the string "ringing".

Strange. Don't know what happened, but you're right, recursion is really a
problem with REBOL as it offers only limited depth.

True. If Parse supported backtracking, it would just be a case of

parse str [any skip "straw" any non-punct "camel" to end]

You're right on this one, i.e. that without backtracking, it might be easier
to understand exactly what's happening.

Unfortunately I haven't ever tried to actually write a program which turns an
NFA into a DFA, but there are relatively simple algorithms to do so. I might
try to give it a go when I get the time, but unfortunately that's not now
(due to exams).

If you have an NFA with states s1, s2, ..., sn, you can build a DFA in which
the states are all possible subsets of {s1, s2, ..., sn}. The intuition is
this: When you feed some input stream to your NFA, it can be in a number of
states at once. Just select the state in your DFA that corresponds to the set
of states your NFA is in.

To decide which transitions you need between the states in your DFA given an
input symbol: For each element s in the set corresponding to the DFA state,
see which states you can go into from the NFA in state s. Take the union of
all the states you get, and you get another state in your DFA, and you've got
a transition between the two DFA states.

The starting state in your DFA is the state containing exactly the states you
can reach in your NFA given the empty string

Title: More PWS Questions and Issue





I hate to be whipping a dead horse here, but am still having problems getting Rebol to run as a cgi script on personal web server??

I followed the instructions at  http://www.rebol.org/userlist/archive/38/514.html , and that was an adventure in itself.  Any windows wizards out there willing to write a script or .bat file to make these registry settings easier and less scary for we mortals??

Anyway, after I made the changes, I tried to run a simple form with the cgi-get and cgi-post code from the howto.html...and got the following symptoms:

1) An instance of rebol opened up on my machine??


2) The CGI script misbehaved and returned incomplete headers.  The headers it did return were:  and the rest of the screen was blank.

I created a virtual directory named Rebol, and gave it execute priviledges, and my url for the form was http://localhost/rebol/cgi-get.r .

Hope that someone can help me get this thing going...One writer suggest I run an different (Omni) web server...now this could be an interim option if I could run it on 8080 or something, but I need to continue to run PWS on 80HEEElp,

Because I wanted to match a string _ending_ with "ing". I guess we have just

I just don't see what the problem is. The examples above do exactly as I
wanted. I used "|" as "a backtracker", since it appears to do this:

First, call recursively on the left side of the "|". If the match succeeds,
return success.
If the first call didn't return success, call recursively on the right side of
the "|" (starting from the same position in the input stream as for the call
on the left side of the "|"). If the match succeeds, return success,
otherwise return failure.

This is effectively the same as backtracking.

>See ya,

>PS: I am somehow tired today to study and comment another examples, sorry :-)

Me too, I still have to read quite a few pages (of _really_ boring statistics)

It seems immutable to me

I think it doesn't, but let's try:

[REBOL] Rebol as MTA

2000-01-07 Thread jdoehler

Hello:

I am new to Rebol, which I now use to automate a mailing list for a
non-profit support group. I also use a free ISP as a backup service when my
main one goes down; however, that backup service does not provide an SMTP
server. Can Rebol be used as a mail transfer agent for small volume,
occasional e-mails? I see that SMTP is build into Rebol, but there is no
example posted on the Rebol site on how to use it.

FrontPage. 

Support for Netscape Gold/Composer, and Trellix would also be nice. 

An Open Source project to develop REBOL-based Web management tools (a

(Which tools could eventually make FrontPage et al obsolete, or at

[REBOL] Developer's Host: Is there any? Re:

>any inexpensive hosting service
 
My host is very CGI and developer friendly, inexpensive and responsive. The 
machines are located near Chicago Nap, MAE East and MAE West. 
 
http://www.clss.com/hostdetails.htm
 
You could contact them directly, or I could help get you set up as a 
reseller. It runs about $35/month, unlimited traffic, et cetera.
 
I also think we could run REBOL scripts from some of the free servers, like 
Tripod. Anyone tried this yet? I just need to write a quick script to test what 
platform my test account is on (wxxi_org.tripod.com). 
 
For the least cost, sometimes a dial-up ISP will give you some free Web 
space, complete with a CGI-BIN. (For REBOL, all you need is an executable 
directory and FTP, and you're in business.) You could then use a forwarding 
service like NameSecure.com (about $35/year ) to keep your top-level domain in 
use.

Well, most people use the term "Acrobat files" as a colloquialism for
"PDF files".

What version do you have? Mine is V 1.3,  68020 FPU version with
decryption. I use it just about every day with no crashes.

I am not saying it's as good as Adobe's original reader, and you need to
set the fonts up carefully if you want to read off screen, but the point
is that the format is usable on Amiga. 

There is no simple solution to printing (or screen displays) that will
work on all platforms, but PDF or PostScript output might do for a
start. Unless Carl wants to employ several programmers full time writing
printer drivers?

Yes! As long as they have the same subject, I'll find them all, and we will
send you REBOL/View.  Just as soon as we've got it.

OK, try powering down an internal Winmodem in your PC.  :)

I think he possibly meant (assuming the auto connect of the M$ TCP stack)
for Rebol to tell the stack to disconnect.  Carlos, this might be in one of
the other Rebol packages (like command?) since it would be platform
specific.

Yes please, and the other guys too (well, at least one other).

No, it's a PDF reader, not "Acrobat".  Apdf is still buggy, I've had it lock
up or crash several times.

And only one or two seem to be well supported.

And some manufacturers (seem to) try to prevent other drivers from being
written by making Winprinters (like Windows is the only OS out there).

I like to think so since Carl was the father of AmigaOS.
