Now LiveCode CGI without Stacks are working, I started to try to create CGI using stacks.
The stack is a simple database stack with one background field called MyField.
MyDatabase.lc is as follows:

<?lc
set the errorMode to "inline"
?>
<html>

<head>
<title>My LiveCode Database Test Page</title>
</head>

<body>
<h1>My LiveCode Database Test Page</h1>
<?lc
go stack "MyDatabase.livecode"
put "Card 1"
put " " & card field "MyField" & "" & crlf
put "Card 2"
go next
put " " & card field "MyField" & "" & crlf
put "Card 2"
go next
put " " & card field "MyField" & "" & crlf

?>
</body>

</html>

I saved it and typed the URL of the CGI in Safari, but the loading stops. It doesn't respond. Any suggestions?

Hi turbolaserguy,

I am not sure that you can actually "GO" to a stack with LC server?

My understanding is that you can currently only use stacks as (script-)libraries:
...
<?lc
start using stack "my_library.livecode"
?>
...

I may be wrong

Best

Hi Klaus,

Ah, I see, but I think is just an alternative way of loading the stack as a library.

And it obviously does not work for you the way you exspect it

Klaus,

No, no! If you go to stacks in CGI, you can use the background field values as card-based database! You don't need SQL. I've done it before (about 4 years ago) on RunRev server! (I lost the code I wrote in that day)

Ah, OK, did not know this! But then your original script should work, right!?

Maybe you could add a TRY stucture to your code and see if there is an error of any kind?
All of the file permissions are correct on the server?
