AxKit under Win32

[Prakash Chatterjee]

Does anybody know where I can find information for installing and running
AxKit under windows (is this possible?).

I looked on axkit.org but didn't find any guidance.

Thanks

Actually, no you can't. At least not without masses of Javascript and god
knows what else. And of course you'll have no guarantee that it won't fall
over on the client's browser.

Please correct me if this is wrong.

  What is the big difference between "web frontend" and a "normal GUI"?
Can't
you do everything in the "web frontnend" that you do in "normal GUI"?

Apache::Cookie under mod_perl

[Prakash Chatterjee]

Using mod_perl, I am serving my pages from port 8050 - how can I ensure that
the cookies I send using Apache::Cookie appends this port on to the end of
the domain in the cookie that I send back to the browser?

RE: XML::Write and XML::Simple incompatibility

[Prakash Chatterjee]

Thanks people.

It turned out to be an Expat problem. As advised, we compiled Apache without
EXPAT - and hunky dory - it works.

It's hard to tell given the provided information, but this *may* be a
modperl
problem.

See http://axkit.org/faq.xml, entry "I install AxKit and Apache segfaults
when it starts" (even if you don't have AxKit) to check whether that is the
cause of the problem or not.

Failing that, you have the perl-xml list which you can subscribe to at
ActiveState's site.
