[REBOL] Re: bizarre CGI script behaviour

From: gchiu:compkarori at: 7-Jan-2001 17:07

Hi Brett

Yes. I just put a routine to email each time the script attempts execution, and immediately after I called it via a web browser at about 15:46, it attempted to execute at: 15:46, 15:48, 15:50, 15:52, 15:16, 16:00, 16:04, 16:10, 16:16, 16:24, 16:34 It's now 17:02 so perhaps it has stopped now :-( but it looks like it is executing every 2 minutes, then 4 mins, then 8 mins, then 10 mins

I think I only get logs once a month. I'll check now.

My cgi-bin directory is not browsable, and so I don't think a spider is causing this. The fact that it fires so many times only after I call it once suggests that there is either a problem with the script itself, or possibly the web server - Apache on Solaris. OT: This version of Rebol on Solaris/Sparq doesn't understand 'exists? either. -- Graham Chiu
