Firstly - thanks to ppl on this forum that have helped in previous problems - I
have had three questions - and two were solved directly through you guys ;O)
I have another though - see if you can help..
Apache, which was pritty easy.... Now that I am running web - I have only
really had to make a couple of changes, server side wise, to get the web pages
to do what I need to do...
For instance
a link from the base www directory, /usr/local/share/doc/apache/, to the
cgi-bin /usr/local/www/cgi-bin.default
and
enabling all .shtml files to be executed SSI style by changing
/usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf file to include stuff like
Options +Includes
AddType text/html .shtml
AddHandler server-parsed .shtml
Now for the question... The next thing I want to do is to have cgi scripts
execute into html pages without the need to bring up a new window..
I have reseached a little so this is what I mean...
I am wanting to get a simple cgi-hit-counter up and running on the opening
page.... I have already got other cgi things working so I know CGI is working
properly on the server...
I can get the counter to work using html code -
<AHREF="cgi-bin/counter.pl">Dynamic page</A> , but this brings it up in a new
window - WHICH I DON'T WANT..
In the example code - it says you can put the following line in, and cgi will
execute right on that page
<!--#exec cgi="cgi-bin/counter.pl" -->
however this does not work
With further reading I found out the following.. Aparently I have to change
some file with the following
PATH-INFO=/.?????/????
because cgi-proxy man pages warn you that you can not use cfi-proxy to run a
server-side include, the problem
is that way the ncsa http server parses cgi="/cgi-bin/?????/???/"
Could someone please let me know what the file and path is that contains the
PATH-INFO command, so I might have a look and play around with the settings..
I believe I did a make install to the following apache
/usr/ports/www/apache13/work/apache_1.3.19
I have successfully entered commands into /usr/local/etc/apache/httpd.conf to
get SSI working, this last
little bit of config would make a real difference
Please let me know if you can help
Regards
Julian
