Problem with REBOL on webserver...

 [1/3] from: chris:starforge at: 15-Apr-2001 14:17


Hi, I've got a pretty weird problem with REBOL on my new hoster. I've just bought an account with kdawebservices.co.uk, copied most of my site from my current hoster across and started to get REBOL set up on the sever.. I've plonked rebol in the cgi-bin (yeah, I know there's security issues, but it's the best I can do FTM) and tried running some of my scripts. The permissions are set up correctly, and the exact same scripts work fine on my local apache setup. But when I try to use one of the scripts on the webserver it just sits there waiting for a reply. So I've downloaded, installed and set up OpenSSH, managed to connect to my shell account and cd'd to the cgi-bin directory on the server, run rebol and all I get is REBOL/Core 2.3.0.4.1 Copyright 1997-2000 REBOL Technologies REBOL is a Trademark of REBOL Technologies All rights reserved. and it just sits there - I have to break it to get back to a prompt. Suggestions? Analysis? TIA, Chris -- New sig in the works Explorer 2260, Designer and Coder http://www.starforge.co.uk -- Zero Defects, n.: The result of shutting down a production line.

Never seen that happen. Try removing rebol.r and user.r, or if they are missing, add them with correct permissions.

I tried again with 2.3.0.4.2, rather than the 4.1 I was using, and it worked.. I'm not exactly sure why 4.1 didn't crash immediately (it has on every other system I've got the libc5/libc6 versions backwards) But it's working, despite my bumbling efforts ;)) Chris -- New sig in the works Explorer 2260, Designer and Coder http://www.starforge.co.uk -- Cleanliness is next to impossible.
