Hello,
We have a web site
that runs fine on the net, with a search cgi, we now need a portable version of
the website to run on a ibook (mac os9).
The web site runs file locally on the ibook until
the search form cgi is used.
I have read and scanned the post archive and found
lots (too much ) information.
This is what i have done so far.
1. made a folder on the harddrive called "webroot",
within that folder are the website and a cgi-bin folder.
2. Turned on Web Shareing, address 10.0.0.0 .
Selected the "webroot" as the web folder.
3. Set the TCP/IP setting to AppleTalk(mac IP),
configure "using macip manually" IP address "10.0.0.0"
4. Set TCP/IP to active
5. Installed MacPerl
6. Run MacPerl
7. Set the first line of the .cgi file to
#!perl
8. open the location (rather than open page) of
10.0.0.0 and i get the web site fine.
9. When i enter a term into the search text box and
hit search, after some time i get a page loaded saying "A CGI or internal server
componet could not complete the requested action"
Does this mean that everything is running ok, but
the script is not configured for MacPerl?
Or does it mean there are some other things i am
missing?
I did not want to take up too much space and post
the cgi script , however , I could post or send them to anyone for
help.
Thanks so much for any advise.....
Best Regards,
Alvy
