I am trying to install v. 1.8.7 on FreeBSD 4.7 with PostGresql.
I had already installed an earlier version on another FGBSD machine wihtout
problems. Not this time...
I don't know if anyone has recently verified the installation instructions
or the names of files. First, the setup.pl file is actually called
dnsetup.pl (god knows why...)
Second, the Instllation calls for the creation of an sql-ledger-httpd.conf
file:
Quote:
create a file sql-ledger-httpd.conf in the same location where your
httpd.conf is and copy the next section into the file
Alias /sql-ledger/ /usr/local/sql-ledger/
<Directory /usr/local/sql-ledger/>
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
Options ExecCGI Includes FollowSymlinks
</Directory
<Directory /usr/local/sql-ledger/users>
Options None
</Directory>
edit httpd.conf and add
# SWL-Ledger
Include <ServerRoot>/sql-ledger-httpd.conf
Unquote.
Either this is incomplete or I am missing something here.
I am not a programmer, but it looks to me like all this could be simply
included in the httpd.conf file without the contortions of the
sql-ledger-httpd.conf file.
It is pretty obvious from the error messages I get (apache startup -
invalid command Alias...) and from examination of the httpd.conf file that
something is amiss, here, and probably something is lacking in the
instructions.
I suspect that the sql-ledger-httpd.conf file should probably be inserted
into the alias-module of the httpd.conf file.
Could someone, please, let me know what the correct procedure should be.
Thanks in advance,
PJ
