Question with CGI at JaguarPC..

2008-02-20 Thread Chipp Walters
Hi all, I'm still trying to get a cgi working at JaguarPC. I've created a folder mycgi and put the revolution engine in it, etc. I've successfully created a 'helloworld.cgi' which works. Next I used Jacque's echo.mt scriptchanged it to echo.cgi and it works fine. Then, I created a small

Yeah, I guess I'll have to work my CGI's in 2.6.1.bummer as I hate working in 2 diff IDE's. This legacy format thing really sucks especially since there's no engine support for the new format. I tried uploading and using the file called Standalone (renaming it 'revolution') in the Linux

Well, I got the cgi up and running. Open stack worked fine. Supposedly you need to call close stack though I haven't tested it. Another note of interest... my comments are typically: -- THIS IS A COMMENT...2 DASHES FOLLOWED BY A GREATER THAN SIGN but they just hang the cgi for some reason

OK, Figured out the problem with the preserve stack format, and my own Save Legacy format plugin. You used to be able to set the stackFileVersion and it would stay set. Now the RevSave version overides it as it's looking for a RevGeneral custom prop in working with Preserve stack file version on

Hey Scott, This is Mac only. Don't know if this will helpbut it does demonstrate manually walking through directories (I think) on a Unix based machine (MacOSX). I don't have my Mac w/me, but you may be able to cobble something together based upon some of the code here: altFileMgr

You can access the stack in msg: go URL http://www.gadgetplugins.com/altplugins/revAltFileMgr.rev; on second look, it appears to use the defaultfolder...sorry. But the idea is do a directory listing via shell, which, IMO, should work. ___ use-revolution

Spent some time with Andre this evening, and he sent me the 2.9 dp3 Linux engine, which also didn't work. Then he looked at the top of my CGI script and saw this: #!revolution and he changed it to this: #!revolution -ui and everything worked. Evidently the -ui switch means run without graphics

Well, I've decided to try out JaguarPC and the least expensive option. So, exactly which version of the Rev engine do I install? I suppose it's a Linux one, and I suppose I put it in the cgi-bin folder. The latest one available from the RunRev site is 2-6.1, so do I just put the revolution.x86

Thanks Nicolas, Yep, I see where the engine needs to be named revolution (no extension) and that the first line in the cgi script will call it. I'm using the Linux version of revolution on the server but I can't seem to get it to work. I wonder if there's some other setup which must be done.
