Rebol as CGI under Apache in Windows?
[1/2] from: webmaster::siliconspecies::com at: 16-Dec-2000 21:58
So close...
I can't seem to get Rebol processing CGIs under Apache in Windows.
Looked at the httpd.conf and tried some things, but no go.
On Linux all I had to do was put the binary in /usr/bin
and have the tagline like for perl.
/usr/bin/rebol -cs
yet I can't seem to get the same kind of thing working on windows apache.
Please assist.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
I got this information from the Official Guide, and it works for me.
In the apache directory,
modify the file conf/httpd.conf as follows:
Find the line beginning with Options, like this:
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
Add ExecCgi:
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews ExecCgi
Find the line:
#ServerName new.host.name
Remove #:
ServerName new.host.name
That's all for httpd.conf.
First line of my scripts looks like:
#!d:\anton\dev\rebol\view\rebol.exe -cs
store them in the apache/cgi-bin directory
and after starting apache, refer to your scripts with:
http://localhost/cgi-bin/test.cgi
I hope I've got everything correct.
Anton.
