Title: Re:[MacPerl-WebCGI] Testing scripts in a Mac

Hi Riccardo,

I was where you are not so long ago. You can indeed test offline. Here is the info I sent to someone else a while ago:


I recommend using a server app like Quid Pro Quo, which is free. Its more flexible and configurable than the OS Web Sharing server. It also allows you to do SSI's in any page.

You have to set up the TCP/IP to run via AppleTalk. Set up the configuration using 'Set MacIP manually'.
Set the router address to something like 255.255.255.0, and the IP address to 10.0.0.10. These are the settings that where suggested to me, and they work fine.

If you use Quid Pro Quo, you can set the source directory to whatever folder your pages are stored in, then access them by using http://10.0.0.10/[your page name here]

You can get Quid Pro Quo at http://wwwsocialeng.com

I hope that helps. Mail me if you need any more info.

Cheers,

Richard
