We will use probably CURL, since we have a Mac server.

If you mean, the cgi needs to catch POST requests and process them then 
yes, I catch those all the time. If you mean the cgi needs to *generate* 
POST requests then you'll probably need to do what Bjornke said.

ah, yes, I see!

Good idea, since we have a Mac server (an old eMac, but what the heck :-)
CURL shoould already avialble on that machine.

Klaus,

I think it is easier to shell() to CURL than to load libURL on old CGI
engines.

CURL can POST, GET and pretty much anything you want.

should work, but you need to load liburl yourself, as it's (for obvious 
reasons) not included directly in the engine. Note that some colocation and 
shared servers will not allow any outgoing sockets.

Old CGI engine and POST

Hi all,

maybe someone happens know this?

We are using an old Rev engine as a CGI engine on our server.
Is it possible to "POST" something to an url with this old CGI engine?
Know what I mean?

I do not have the chance to test this in the moment.

Thanks for all answers :-)

Re: Can a Rev cgi "accept connections"?

2010-01-18 Thread Jim Ault

Cause, after studying about sockets using Rev's "chat server/client"  
sample
stack (thank you to Bill Vlahos for pointing it out), I'm now trying  
to get
a Rev cgi script to act as the server (the script will  be in my on- 
rev

Rev-cgi folder).

Unfortunately, what works locally isn't at all on the web.



Wouldn't you have to use Fast CGI for that?

Normally a CGI script only runs as a single instance when called, and  
then immediately quits.  If called again, it relaunches, but is a  
separate instance with no common variables unless a programmer does  
something to create "session variables".


In PHP, the use of globals is a serious security hazard since these  
areas of memory can be hijacked by inventive bots and programmers and  
cause havoc, such as denial of service attacks and spambots.


Further, the customer of a hosting company does not get to change the  
firewall settings (TCP and UDP) so you would have to use the existing  
port configuration.


Locally, if you changed the httpd.conf file to have Apache listen at  
ports other than just port 80, then rebooted it, Apache could get  
packets on ports such as 1987.
A hosting company, even the one in Texas that is used by On-Rev,  
probably would not allow a request to reconfigure your account.  This  
is an area I know little about for General hosting, but I do have  
several Rev apps running in a Private data center where firewall  
requests are handled by the tech group and have to get approval.  I  
write connection software for the company that owns the data center,  
otherwise I would have no chance of submitting work orders to make  
changes.


I would suggest you contact the On-Rev hosting company and ask how  
they are setup to allow chat server programs to operate on their  
system.  It could be that cPanel has a tool for doing that on a port  
that is already configured.  If you are not familiar with cPanel (as I  
am not).


You should Google "cPanel chat server"
and do some reading to get to know exactly what you want, then  
hopefully it is possible.  It would be cool if it were easy, and then  
you could let us know a few details when you are up and running.

Agreed.  I understand RunRev Ltd. is on holiday break at the moment, but 
I'm hoping when they get back they'll be in a position to move forward 
with the new server thang.



It was in this context that I wondered about the availability of the
Apache module from on-Rev.  Clearly it's been in use for months now,
but I don't remember seeing that it been made publicly available.


I don't think it's a module per se since it isn't stay-resident, which 
is a good thing IMO since most of us use shared hosting services and 
it's not easy getting admins to install a module their server for a 
single account.


Behaviorally, it's very much like a CGI configured with .htaccess to run 
files ending in .irev through an enhanced merge function.  At least 
that's how I've been able to approximate the behavior, as with the 
templates driving the blog at revJournal.com.  While missing some of the 
syntactic sugar on-rev users enjoy (and without the great benefit of 
live debugging), it's been delightfully simple to drop RevTalk function 
calls in standard HTML pages and have them fill in the blanks from calls 
to a library stack.  Merge is a beautiful thing.


But as for the new server component, I'm not really sure what exactly it 
is.  I'm told it's not a CGI, and it doesn't behave like a module.


Whatever it is, I'm looking forward to getting my hands on it. :)

I thought I'd read it in the log text files, but I wasn't at a
computer with 4.0 installed when I wrote that.

Thanks (as always) for your offer of help.  Much appreciated.
However, I found out that Rev 4.0 didn't work as a shell processor
when I tried running some of my Rev shell scripts with 4.0.  As I had
3.5 installed on that computer, I just switched to using that instead.

But I thought it was important to raise this issue about the changes
to the way Rev works in case other people were thinking to use Rev 4
in a cgi environment. In another thread yesterday Viktoras was asking
about virtual servers hosts on the internet where he could install
Rev.

It was in this context that I wondered about the availability of the
Apache module from on-Rev.  Clearly it's been in use for months now,
but I don't remember seeing that it been made publicly available.

The note was in the v4.0 Engine Change Log:

Standalone Building
~~~

The method by which standalone building is done has changed in this 
release. Standalones are now built in such a way that they behave much 
better as executable files on all three platforms. In particular, 
Revolution standalone executables can now:

  - be digitally signed using the various OS tools on Windows and Mac OS X
  - have arbitrarily sized document and application ICO files used on 
Windows

  - have their resources edited on Windows
  - be used with various third-party executable processing tools (such 
as compressors, trial run makers, network key wrappers etc.)


In order to achieve this, it has been necessary to implement the core 
operation of standalone building in the (ide) engine. This means that 
the standalone engine provided in the distribution is no longer 
generally useful as anything other than the shell which is used to form 
the standalone. In particular, it cannot be used to build standalones 
using the method previously used nor can it be used as a generic command 
line engine.

Kevin has stated here his intention of providing a free engine for CGI 
use for v4 forward as has always been the case, but given the complexity 
of the RevWeb plugin I can understand the delay in delivering this.


In the meantime I've continued using the v3.5 engine as a CGI, and given 
that most of the v4 changes affect things that don't come into play in a 
faceless mode I would imagine v3.5 would be suitable for most command 
line-driven projects.


Is there something specific to v4 your project needs which would 
preclude using the v3.5 runtime engine?  Maybe we can brainstorm a 
workaround to get you going.

Re: Rev compress, cgi, php, zip

2009-12-11 Thread Jim Ault

Your library is on my list to study as I journey toward my client's  
goals.
I have a couple new ideas (after reading Stephen Barncard's email) and  
digging up some of my own work from 2008.

I think a couple solutions will blossom and I will let you know.

The most valuable part for my project you have answered
   Rev compress(block) > decompress(block) in PHP
... this will allow a remote page to be displayed with code generated  
by Rev templates and data.


Part of the methodology is to generate static page portions from a  
library/database kept on myaccount.on-rev.com.
When these page portions are updated, calls to the remote sites are  
made to utility scripts that accept/decode/store them locally for  
display speed.


Most updates will be info/pages that are appended to the site rather  
than requiring interactive queries or ajax.

I am far more accomplished with Rev than with PHP.

Thanks for the quick reply.

Maybe the ZIP lib calls would have the right compression. What is the
difference between REVZIP calls and compress?
There's also the shell, which might certainly call the same kind of routines
that PHP does.

Rev compress, cgi, php, zip

2009-12-11 Thread Jim Ault

I am refining my algorithms to connect web hosted servers that do not  
work with Revolution CGI to On-Rev and other web servers that do run  
Rev CGI.


I have several mechanisms working for moving data and processing logic  
between domains, and would like to add the compression scheme as  
follows:


server A is OnRev
server B is a host that does not do Rev CGI

step 1 is to build a variable on server B using php
step 2 is to send the variable using POST in php
step 3 is to have a Rev script decompress()

So far my attempts are not successful.

Rev uses
try
  put decompress(varFromServerB) into varUnzipped
catch errnum
  put "Error decompressing =>" & errnum into buffer
end try

PHP uses  gzcompress($varFromServerB)

-1-  does decompress work in Rev CGI using Linux 3.5 version
-2-  is there a way to make the compressions compatible?

Of course I could just make a call to a utility script  decompr.php   
located on the OnRev server that returns the decompressed string, but  
that would make the processing take slightly longer.


When I get this smoothed out, I will post a web page or two showing  
web pages on different servers running php, Rev scripts, Rev stacks,  
and irev scripts.  These will be interconnected and show different  
variations.  One variation will be a single web page hosted on OnRev  
that uses all 4 types of scripting to render the page and interact  
with the visitor.

Re: about Rev cgi and MySQL

2009-11-03 Thread Rick Harrison


Hi,

There are some other compromising approaches to consider as well.

Don't have the record open long at all in your processing.
If it is a form, don't use the database field for your entry, use
a variable for the entry, so the record isn't actually open.
Once the user actually submits the information, then open
your record, copy the information from the variables into
the record, and perform your update.  In this way you will
use the least amount of time for your record locking technique.

Use a record locking strategy where you can use a
Date/Time stamp along with a session ID, or IP-Address,
when the record was opened for updating.
If the record isn't updated within a specified amount of time,
let it time out, send a message to the user that the update
timed out, and direct them to do it over. Close the record
so someone else can update it.

If someone else is trying to update the same record at the same
time, have the program wait for a couple of seconds and try
the update again. (You can loop this for several tries before
giving up.  If it still fails at this point you can send that user a
record busy message, ask them to wait, or ask them to try
again in a minute, or to cancel their update for later.)

I hope this helps!

Re: about Rev cgi and MySQL

2009-11-03 Thread Jan Schenkel

This problem isn't unique to cgi-scripting - you have the same issues with a 
desktop application where concurrent updates need to be handled.

There are 3 approaches to concurrent changes:
- pessimistic locking (no one can change the record while somebody has it 
locked)
- optimistic locking (essentially no locking, whoever makes the last update 
wins)
- optimistic locking + versioning (again no locking, byut we use a version 
number to see if anyone else made a change)

The first approach, pessimistic locking, doesn't scale very well and you risk 
locking out users when someone opens a record and goes out for lunch without 
closing the record.
The second approach, optimistic locking without versioning, is just not an 
option in a serious business application; but it may fit the bill under other 
circumstances as it's the quickest.

Which leaves us with the third option, optimistic locking + versioning. In this 
scenario, you add a 'version' column to each table, and when you update a 
record, you only update it if the version number is the same as when you read 
it.
So when opening the record, you'd have:
  SELECT * FROM Customer WHERE cust_Id = 12345
Then you copy the version number for later use:
  put revDatabaseColumnNamed(tResultSetId, "cust_Version") into tVersion
Let's assume for a second that the version number is 8. When you want to save 
the changes, you would use a query like:
  UPDATE Customer SET cust_Name = 'Jan', cust_Version = cust_Version + 1 WHERE 
cust_Id = 12345 AND cust_Version = 8

When you use the revExecuteSQL command, the result contains the number of 
records affected by your UPDATE query. If the result for the above query is 0, 
then no records were updated, which means that someone else incremented the 
version number.
At this point, you could read the new version of the record and provide some 
sort of 'merge' functionality where the user picks the right fields.

Important note: when using a 'version' field, make sure to extract non 
user-entry data our of the table ionto a separate table. For instance, if 
there's a field cust_Balance to hold the current balance of the cusztomer, you 
should move that out of the Customer table, so that the rest of your business 
logic can update that without worrying about a version number.

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.

about Rev cgi and MySQL

2009-11-02 Thread Nicolas Cueto

Just curious about something. But I don't know the technical
vocabulary, so please forgive this verbose (and confusing?)
explanation.

I think it essentially has do with user queues.


I have a Rev.cgi script on the On-Rev server that works in this 3-step sequence:

(STEP 1) uses SELECT to retrieve data from a MySQL table

(STEP 2) does stuff based on that retrieved data in order to alter it

(STEP 3) uses UPDATE to put that now-altered data back into the same MySQL table


My question is about data mishaps that could happen during STEP 2 --
specially if it happens to take a long time (a few seconds?) -- should
it happen to come about that a new user calls a Rev.cgi which is still
working on a previous user's call.


The chaos sequence I have in mind is this:

USER 1 : STEP 1 --> Rev.cgi retrieves data from SQL table at time X ( = tData)
USER 1 : STEP 2 --> Rev.cgi works with tData to make tData_User1 (but
no UPDATE yet)

... but during USER 1 : STEP 2 ...

USER 2 : STEP 1 -->   Rev.cgi retrieves data from SQL table at time
X+1 (still = tData)
USER 2 : STEP 2 --> Rev.cgi works on tData to make tData_User2 (but no
UPDATE yet)
USER 1 : STEP 3 --> updates SQL table with tData.User1
USER 2 : STEP 3 --> updates SQL table with tData.User2

In this chaos scenario of mine -- if indeed this is how things
actually happen between servers, which I'm hoping it's not -- the
problem is the state of tData at USER 2 : STEP2. It should not be
tData but actually tData_User1.


So, is there something in-built in SQL or Rev.cgi that handles queues
in such a way that prevents this kind of queue chaos, whether it's 2
or 2 million users calling in at the "same" time

Or do I have to take care of this myself somehow, by, say, proper scripting?

Thank you.

I've put up some instructions on how to do something similar here:

This shows how to use an old-style CGI that is integrated into an iRev 
page. It is, for now, the only way I could see to "start using" other 
stacks. And you're right, it's pretty easy.


There is also a link on the sidebar on how to use more than one revlet

Irev; Rev Cgi; stack as dBase: runs in iFrame in Word Press

2009-11-02 Thread Sivakatirswami

Thanks to a tip from Andre I have managed to use runRev in a word press 
blog. he says a revlet will also run too...I usually don't contribute 
much here because I feel I'm a "baby" compared to all the wizards ... 
but perhaps this will be useful to  those interested in incorporating 
runRev in PHP CMS frameworks. In this case a Word Press mu blog.


http://himalayanacademy.com/blog/taka/2009/11/02/words-to-ponder/

The "chain" of elements in the framework are interesting, as we use

-- an iFrame
-- Calls a .irev page
-- .irev page calls a rev-cgi
-- rev-cgi "starts using" a stack
-- stack function digs for and returns the content
-- results are posted back to word press.

The thing of it is... it's so easy! and so fast... Total lines of code?

22? (spread over three different files and don't forget a 7MB stack is 
loaded on every instance...but there is no lag time)


with one or two caveats.

In case any one is interested here is the code:

Word Press Post
(# space and breaks at the beginning to give a little breathing room 
above the iFrame below the post title)


    

   

## the css is needed to eliminate the border. iFrames will always 
"borderize" so just set the color of the border to the color of your 
background and it effectively disappears.
# Assumes you have the wp plug in that allows for pasting html into the 
blog and this is set to "allow"



RandomWord.irev # will be displayed into your iFrame, I suspect this 
could be a page that contains a revlet...


http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd";>


   

   Get
   Random Word
   
   

   background-repeat: no-repeat;">

put url 
"http://www.himalayanacademy.com/cgi-bin/getRandomLexiconWord.cgi"; into 
tWordOfTheDay

set the itemdel to "|"
put item 1 of tWordOfTheDay into tWord
put item 2 of tWordOfTheDay into tDefinition

?>

:
  





getRandomLexiconWord.cgi

# it would be nice to be able to call stacks directly with the iRev 
engine and
# I think that is on the roster of future for features but for now you 
need to

# do a GET of a a rev-cgi that Starts Using a stack

#!/opt/web/bin/revolution -ui

on startup
   start using stack "../public_html/resources/lexicon/lexicon.rev"
   put getRandomWord() into buffer
 put "Content-Type: text/plain" & cr
 put "Content-Length:" && the length of buffer & cr & cr
 put buffer
end startup

in the stack "lexicon.rev" (a 7 MB stack with about 3500 cards)

I have this function in the stack itself.

function getRandomWord
  put (the number of cards of stack "Lexicon") into tCards
  put random(tCards) into tWord
  put (fld "word" of card  tWord of stack "Lexicon") & "|"& \
  (fld "definition" of card tWord of stack "Lexicon") into tOutput
  return tOutput
end getRandomWord

# Caveat on calling functions in stacks using rev-cgi: a rev.cgi has no 
stack context. There fore you need to declare explicitely the stack 
reference to any objects in your stack. If you are working on the 
desktop in the IDE of course you don't need this and then when you post 
the thing to the web it doesn['t work.. .I had gone thru this a few 
years  back but for got about it  and it was until I reviewed some old 
function in other web stack that I realize again that you must do this:


put (the number of cards) into tCards

# works in the desktop in an IDE or standalone; fails when invoked by cgi

# this is required, for it to work when call by a CGI even though the 
function is in the stack "Lexicon":


put (the number of cards of stack "Lexicon")  into tCards

Again: total lines of runRev code (not including html)

next step is using php to forward the $_POST data to an .irev or

But, I really want to avoid having to learn (any more!) php, so am

Has someone tried to use php to relay data to .irev/rev-cgi?

might be what you want, and from what I remember when I followed his
tutorial a couple of years ago, it was all straightforward.

Has someone tried to use php to relay data to .irev/rev-cgi?

Use PHP to extract the parts of the array you need, and then do a
$_POST or $_GET to the irev/cgi using the desired variable names, just
like you would if you were going to use PHP to navigate to another web
page and pass variables to that page. You might have to encode the
characters before sending them to irev/cgi to be successful.

For example:
http://subdomain.on-rev.com/area/targetStack.irev?var1=dateStr&var2=timeStr&var3=contentStr&var4=otherDataStr

Then setup the 'targetStack' to look for both the GET & POST using the
one that is not empty. Now it can handle both methods of data arriving.

In August I will start working with my On-Rev account. I have not
actually done this, so hopefully this will point you in a useful
direction.

After much testing and frustation, I've discovered that the on-rev
server is unable to read the $_POST array when sent by WAP/WML-based
Japanese cellphones to an .irev script.

As a workaround, I've make a .php script that can read in $_POST. The

But, I really want to avoid having to learn (any more!) php, so am

Re: [ON-REV] on-rev server and labelling directories "cgi-bin"

2009-06-29 Thread Bill Marriott

Nicolas,

I've encountered this on other cPanel-based hosts. The ISP was not much 
help, however. I think cPanel protects that directory so that only internal 
processes can access it, for security. Try using the form on on-Rev's 
support page if you haven't already...

[ON-REV] on-rev server and labelling directories "cgi-bin"

2009-06-29 Thread Nicolas Cueto

Pushing the OT envelope maybe but...

Does the on-rev server treat subdirectories
and their contents differently when the
directory housing them is labelled "cgi-bin"?

In the directory linked to my domain name,
I've created a folder "cgi-bin" and then within
it created a folder "junkimg" with jpgs, as in:

kweto.net/cgi-bin/junkimg/a1008.jpg

However, when I try to access the images
inside "kweto.net/cgi-bin/junkimg/", I get
a 500 error.

The server error log too shows a 500 error,
plus these:

... script not found or unable to stat:
/home/kweto/public_html/kweto.net/cgi-bin/AnotherDir/index.htm
... attempt to invoke directory as script:
/home/kweto/public_html/kweto.net/cgi-bi/SomeOtherDir/


I've checked and fiddled with on-rev server's
cPanel "Password Protect Directories", but
no go.

Of course, I could just not use "cgi-bin"
as a label, but on my other webhost
account this is not a problem, and,
after I've moved everything from there
to on-rev, I'd like to keep the same
directory structure.

Thanks.

Have you tried with a 'local' mySQL database?

When you send Japanese Text from Rev to mySQL and view it with a 3rd party
app like Navicat, does it appear in Navicat as you would expect it to? ie
has it arrived in the db correctly?

If you use Navicat to:

SELECT japaneseTextColumn FROM myTable INTO OUTFILE
'HD/Users/Shared/textDump.txt'

does it come out as you expect?

If you use Rev's revExecuteSQL command to do the statement above does the
file come out exactly the same? (note you will have to use a different file
name as mySQL will not overwrite an existing file)

If you use Rev's revDataFromQuery command and place the result in a variable
and look at it in the Variable Watcher is it what you expect?

Does it all fall apart at the very last step, placing the variable into a
html document where it is no longer displayed correctly?

You say it arrive's in the Rev stack garbled, but you mention html char set,
is this in a revBrowser window or do you mean a html document which then
displays in Firefox incorrectly?

Sorry, not much help.

Hello Nicolas,

I'm no expert but, working with mySQL and websites, I have found that
the following MySQL command is needed to tell the database what kind of
data it is about to transmit (this assumes the data is actually utf-8 of
course)

SET NAMES 'utf8'

You would use revExecuteSQL with the connection id to isssue this after
making the connection and before trying to transmit the data. Every part
of the process has to be told what kind of data it is dealing with.

Japanese text, cgi, sql (again)

2009-06-03 Thread Nicolas Cueto

Hello All,

On and off over the last three years, I've
been trying to crack the problem of
downloading Japanese text which is
contained in a mysql database by
a stack + rev.cgi combination.

It's that time of year again.

As with past attempts, my latest too
works fine except for the same old
problem --  Japanese text arrives
in the stack garbled (English text
is ok).

Having tried a variety of suggestions
from this list and from Japanese-users
of Rev (the database's and its fields'
collations; Rev uniencode/unidecode/
unicodetext commands; etc),   my
latest thought is the problem may lie
with this final part of my cgi script:


  -- put "Content-Type: text/plain" & cr before buffer
  -- put "Content-Type: text/html; charset = utf-8" & cr
  put  "Content-Length:" && the length of buffer & cr & cr
  put buffer


As the commented-out lines show, I've tried
different "Content-Type".  But not having a full
understanding of how this or char-set work,
they're just blind guesses.

Could the cgi-script's content-type / charset
(or something else similar) be what's garbling
the Japanese text?

Perhaps this year will be the lucky one.

Thanks.

I guess this depends on how your app is going to get it's data if
there is no connection.

I have a similar app and when testing, I turn on the web server in my
own computer, install my cgi-scripts there and use "localhost" instead
of the IP address. That is on the Mac, I don't know anything about web
serving under Windows.

Another option would be to run a version of Andre's RevOnRockets HTTP
stack as your server and somehow get it to supply the required data.

If this is going to work, I presume you have a set of default data
that you can supply instead of whatever was supposed to be coming from
the web server. So a better way might be to check for an internet
connection and then have functions that get your data. e.g.

if connectedToNet then
   put url ("http://65.23.xxx.x/cgi-bin/RevSearch.cgi?setcompdata="; &
compfile & "=" & urlencode(compdata)) into x
else
   put "default data" into x
end if

One of the simplest ways to check for an internet connection is to put
a text file on your site containing nothing but the number 1.
Then:
  put "http://mysite.com/test.txt"; into tCheck
  if tCheck = 1 then ... you are connected
The virtue of this is that it tests the connection to the relevant server too.

HTH,
Sarah

David I've never used Git, so I can't comment on that one, but I've used

to get my head around the Mercurial way to do things (which is probably 
very similar to Git). 

It's dead-easy to install and configure and to start a new repository.  
I really like the mindset of committing your changes before pulling and 
merging stuff from other developer's, as opposed to updating from a 
central repository first, merging/fixing conflicts, then committing. 

I like the flexibility of how you can publish changes.  You can use the 
built-in web server to browse and pull changes.  You can email changes.  
You can grab them via SSH, etc.  Very nice.  The command line interface 
is very simple and the built-in help is great.


Performance is very fast and there is no problem at all with binary 
files, even large ones.

Re: [ANN] Revolution CGI Engine installation tool for On-Rev accounts


Thanks to you and Andre again.

The info you provided cleared a lot of things up and is needed even
though it is installed.

That was for testing on your local machine. If you are only using  
on-rev, you don't need that. Anyway, you're installed now, which is  
the important part.

It doesn't matter. Your home PC is irrelevant to on-rev. The only  
connection in this case is that you are mounting the remote server  
on your desktop in order to copy files, but there is no interaction  
otherwise between on-rev and your home machine.

I used your site and had it install which was done without my

replace
the

offered with
on-rev and it appears to have been poorly copied so needed  
replaced.


I downloaded the zip file and put it in my public_html folder  
using the

webdisk from on-rev.

then I entered the below in my broswer.

http://sundown.on-rev.com/cgi-bin/hello.cgi

instead of taking me to a page with Hello World like your example
I get an Internal Server Error

Do you have any idea what the problem is?

 Hello Again my Friends,



Are you struggling to install the Revolution CGI engine on

account? Can't stand cPanel? Don't know what FTP or CHMOD is?  
Well,

well,
well, your problems are OVER!

With this new handy self contained self distributable self  
selfish
installer, you'll be able to just load a web page and have  
everything

installed.

Oh yes, it is that easy!!!

http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/installcgi.irev

Now enough marketing speak. Let me explain what this does.

It first check to see if there's a revolution engine named  
revolution

in
your cgi-bin, if so, it does nothing.

If there's not, then it get a handy compressed file from my  
account

with
revolution engine and database drivers and it unpacks it in your
cgi-bin
folder
it also set the correct permissions and put a simple hello  
world cgi

there.

The whole thing is self contained, so once it runs, it  
generates a zip

file
and a tar.gz file of itself so that others can download it too.

Let us spread CGI love!

Now, I allow each of you to click the reinstall option on my  
server but
please don't keep reinstalling my engine, it uses too much  
carbon and I

want
a green account
Anyway, this installer does not delete anything it only  
overwrites the

file
revolution if it is present and you tell it so.

Be happy!

Re-2: [ANN] Revolution CGI Engine installation tool for On-Rev accounts

2009-04-24 Thread runrev260805

Hi JB,
hi Andre,

i can confirm this. Running the script only places 2 files (installcgi.tar.gz 
and installcgi.zip) in the same folder, where installcgi.irev is.

It shows me here

tar: ../revcgi.tar.gz: Cannot open: No such file or directory
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
chmod: cannot access `cgi-bin/revolution': No such file or directory
chmod: cannot access `cgi-bin/*.cgi': No such file or directory

Matthias

version that was installed.  I had put in on by the webdisk  
offered with

on-rev and it appears to have been poorly copied so needed replaced.

I downloaded the zip file and put it in my public_html folder  
using the

webdisk from on-rev.

then I entered the below in my broswer.

http://sundown.on-rev.com/cgi-bin/hello.cgi

instead of taking me to a page with Hello World like your example
I get an Internal Server Error

Do you have any idea what the problem is?

 Hello Again my Friends,


Are you struggling to install the Revolution CGI engine on your

account? Can't stand cPanel? Don't know what FTP or CHMOD is?  
Well, well,

well, your problems are OVER!

With this new handy self contained self distributable self selfish
installer, you'll be able to just load a web page and have  
everything

installed.

Oh yes, it is that easy!!!

http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/installcgi.irev

Now enough marketing speak. Let me explain what this does.

It first check to see if there's a revolution engine named  
revolution in

your cgi-bin, if so, it does nothing.

If there's not, then it get a handy compressed file from my  
account with
revolution engine and database drivers and it unpacks it in your  
cgi-bin

folder
it also set the correct permissions and put a simple hello world cgi
there.

The whole thing is self contained, so once it runs, it generates  
a zip

file
and a tar.gz file of itself so that others can download it too.

Let us spread CGI love!

Now, I allow each of you to click the reinstall option on my  
server but
please don't keep reinstalling my engine, it uses too much carbon  
and I

want
a green account
Anyway, this installer does not delete anything it only  
overwrites the

file
revolution if it is present and you tell it so.

Be happy!
andre

Hi Andre,

and again thanks for your amazing work.

Although i have already installed the engine manually into one folder a few 
days ago, this tool will help me
to install the cgi into other domain folders.

Re: [ANN] Revolution CGI Engine installation tool for On-Rev accounts

Hey JB,

let us go part by part... first did you unzipped the thing on your hard
drive and then copy just the irev file to your public_html

then you load http://sundown.on-rev.com/installcgi.irev then it will be
installed.

:D

Re: [ANN] Revolution CGI Engine installation tool for On-Rev accounts


Thanks Andre

I used your site and had it install which was done without my needing
to fill out anything if I did it right.  It asked me if I wanted to  
replace the

version that was installed.  I had put in on by the webdisk offered with
on-rev and it appears to have been poorly copied so needed replaced.

I downloaded the zip file and put it in my public_html folder using the
webdisk from on-rev.

then I entered the below in my broswer.

http://sundown.on-rev.com/cgi-bin/hello.cgi

instead of taking me to a page with Hello World like your example
I get an Internal Server Error

Do you have any idea what the problem is?
