newLISP in the real world / So for win98 wiki?
June 29, 2004, 08:25:58 AM
Yes, Lutz - winXP newlisp httpd is fine with wiki now, thanks you!



I still need ( :( ) to try and run this on a win98 box. Is there something _very_  wrong with win98 newlisp running httpd and wiki? The process starts up, but at the first request it drops out wiith the same error as before.



Should the cygwin version work on win98 or is there something else...?



Thanks again.

Dear All - Success with wiki and apache2 on winXP!



The _very_ useful configuration.cgi script from Lutz showed that SCRIPT_URI was not being supplied by Apache.



In httpd.conf mod_rewrite was not on by default. Uncomment the mod_rewrite line and then somewhere after that in httpd.conf (actual position does not appear significant) put:



RewriteEngine On



And hey presto - all is functional.



HTH

OK, Apache2 is running OK and when I navigate to localhost/wiki I get a page with just this:


string expected : (nth 2 (parse url "/"))

I have made these changes to httpd.conf:


  • Added "DirectoryIndex index.cgi"

    Added
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/htdocs/wiki">
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>

[/list]


The colors.cgi runs and produces a page of colors. I presume this is the desired behaviour. So what extra input does index.cgi require? Is there an environment variable that newlisp needs?



Thanks for the news about httpd, Lutz - I look forward to trying it (later :).

Dear all,



Whilst trying to set up a simple (but powerful :) wiki/blog server, I came across newLisp and am very keen to use procedural techniques but I am stuck. I have tried httpd.lsp by itself, Apache cgi, the wiki and the IDE but none are working correctly.



I am pretty certain I've RTFM and Googled ad nauseam, so:



Does newlisp generally work ok on win98;

Why oh why does httpd.lsp crash or return 405?



As a clue to what's happening, the frames of the IDE are drawn but then I get 'document contains no data' and the MSDOS concole seems to spool the html that should be going to the browser, followed by:



list or string expected in function replace : HTTPD:buffer

called from user defined function execute-file

called from user defined function process-GET-request

called from user defined function process-http-request

called from user defined function net-server-accept

called from user defined function startServer



Please have mercy and tell me the single setup gotcha which I am missing!



Regards,



dr
