rev cgi at Bluehost: libX11.so.6 not found
I'm trying to setup a registration system using the old rev engine (linux) and cgi scripts. The user fills in a form on a web page, clicks a button, and the script should start the engine, do some tasks, and display some information returned by the script. There are no problems in testing on my site, which is hosted by on-rev - it all works great. The client is on Bluehost, where we keep getting errors; the webpage shows [an error occurred while processing this directive] and the cPanel error log shows lccgi: error while loading shared libraries: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Bluehost support has had me install some php pears and add some include_path statements in the php.ini file; this didn't help. I've also tried putting a dummy text file named 'libX11.so.6' in the cgi-bin folder where my script is, and in the php folder, and in the home directory, which also hasn't helped. One support person suggested the problem was that they have 64-bit libraries, and libX11.so.6 is 32-bit. Does anyone have experience with a rev cgi at Bluehost? I've spent hours on this would be grateful for any suggestions..

I stopped using Bluehost many years ago when I discovered that they use a common error log for all users of a given machine, and worse, were aware of the problem and have no plans to fix it. RunRev's answer for problems like this is to replace all the CGIs you once wrote for free with new versions using the $299 RevServer. Some scripts may be easily ported to PHP. -- Richard Gaskin Fourth World LiveCode training and consulting: http://www.fourthworld.com Webzine for LiveCode developers: http://www.LiveCodeJournal.com LiveCode Journal blog: http://LiveCodejournal.com/blog.irv ___ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode

Livecode server works just fine at Dreamhost. And they have some of the best uptime and support in the industry, at competitive prices. Thanks to Andre for helping me get it running. All you need is a properly made .htaccess file at the top of the domain - no modification of Apache, which one can't do anyway on a shared server.

Re: rev cgi at Bluehost: libX11.so.6 not found
Thanks very much for this -- I wasn't able to get the first version of RevServer working at JaguarPC and I'm positive it was for the same reasons you had. Now that I have a recipe maybe I'll try it again. Would love to get it going. JaguarPC, btw, has no problems with old-style cgis. Apparently they have the right libraries installed. But I think Curt would rather make the Bluehost server work if possible; everything is already installed there. Maybe Andre has a magic fix for that particular problem too.
