[REBOL] AW: Re: Trying to get Rebol CGI working on my website
From: dominique:microplus at: 19-Mar-2003 10:51
hi everybody,
because I had the same problems on Apache and Windows NT, I made a few tests
:
Following lines are citations from the Rebol-core User Guide page 11-3 and
11-4 :
"
The standard character for separating directories is the forward
slash (/), not the backslash(\)
File paths that do not begin with a forward slash (/) are relative
paths.
To refer to the C volume that is often used by Windows, the notation
is :
%/C/docs/file.txt
Notice in the above line that the disk volume C is not written as :
%c:/docs/file.txt
The above example is not a machine independent format and causes an
error
"
Refering to this information (and not having other Information in the
Chapter CGI of this guide),
I thought I had to respect the same conventions for the shebang-line as for
files.
I first tried #!/C/Programme/Rebol/core/rebol -cs and had the same problem
than Dave Fobare
(".... all attempts ... ended up with the source of the file being pushed to
the browser as if it were a .txt file.")
I tried a lots of different solutions without success
For a few minutes, trying the solution proposed by Louis (see email below),
I had it
============= GREATE THANKS TO LOUIS =========================
======
I tried following lines :
#!C:/Programme/Rebol/core/rebol.exe -cs works fine (no
space between #! and C)
#! C:/Programme/Rebol/core/rebol.exe -cs works fine
(a few spaces between #! and C)
#!C:\Programme\Rebol\core\rebol.exe -cs
works fine (I believe Rebol convert \ in / )
#!C:\Programme\Rebol\core\rebol -cs works fine
(without .exe)
And now it worked properly, following lines PRODUCE AN ERROR (and don't push
the file to the browser as if it were a .txt file ANY MORE)
#!/C:/Programme/Rebol/core/rebol.exe -cs
#!/C:/Programme/Rebol/core/rebol -cs
#!/C/Programme/Rebol/core/rebol.exe -cs
#!/C/Programme/Rebol/core/rebol -cs
-- dom
