Malte,
Can just repeat as i said before : worked fine for me (both VM and physical
boxes) under RedHat Enterprise Linux and CentOS. I went unsuccessful under
other Linux distro (Debian and OpenSuse) to get the PostgreSQL db correctly
binded to the revServer / LC server installation.
HTH,
Hi Malte,
One way to check whether the XML external has loaded would be
put the externalCommands of stack Home contains revAddXMLNode
I am not sure that the server has a stack Home but you should be able to use
the externalCommands.
If it works in Ubunty in a VM, it should also work on an
since the xml works and the database stuff doesn't, sounds like everything
is in the right location but there might be a permissions problem. If the
externalcommands doesn't show the db stuff, list the files in the externals
folder (which should be in the same folder as livecode-server)
ls -la to
Hi,
My externals folder contains another folder with database drivers. I suppose
this means that the server folder would contain externals plus one folder.
Therefore, you might want to do
sudo chmod -R 755 *
to make it recursive.

I'm not 100% sure, but when using invalid syntax with external functions, you
get the same error as when using them when no externals are loaded (for
standalones at least). so just issuing revOpenDatabase() with invalid params
like that, you won't actually find out anything at all.
So the
It was revopendatabases() (plural) that was being used to test I think,
which doesn't take params.
Of course now that I think about it, is the server external identical to
the desktop? If not, maybe revopendatabases() is broke? I need to get
things fired up again and try it.

Hi all, thanks for the thoughts!
Björnke, I used put revOpenDatabases(), which ought to work without parameters.
Also the same code I have been transferring to the physical UBUNTU machine
works flawlessly in a VM under the same distro of UBUNTU server, under UBUNTU
Desktop, Mac OS X and Win.
Oops, the text file reference was a brain fart that was crossing desktop
externals with server. DOH. No text files with server.
As for apt-get, i'm wondering how hard it would be to create your own .deb
package. (for personal use of course to ease future re-installs) read some
stuff at
