Livecode Server on Ubuntu Linode

[fpierron]

Hi,

After reading docs and asking to google, my apache2 conf do not work.

If someone has the clue, it would be great.

my httpd.conf is empty, as usual on ubuntu on Linode.
The 000-default file has the conf data with :

Code: Select all

<VirtualHost *:80>
	ServerAdmin webmaster@localhost

	DocumentRoot /srv/www
	<Directory />
		Options FollowSymLinks
		AllowOverride None
	</Directory>
	<Directory "/srv/www/">
		Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
		AllowOverride None
		Order allow,deny
		allow from all
              AddHandler livecode-script .lc
              Action livecode-script /livecode-cgi/livecode-server
	</Directory>
	
	ScriptAlias /livecode-cgi/livecode-server /srv/www/livecodeServer/livecode-server

	ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/
	<Directory "/usr/lib/cgi-bin">
		AllowOverride None
		Options +ExecCGI -MultiViews +SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
		Order allow,deny
		Allow from all
	</Directory>
	
	     <Directory "/srv/www/livecodeServer/">
          Options ExecCGI
          Order allow,deny
          Allow from all
      </Directory>

	ErrorLog /var/log/apache2/error.log

	# Possible values include: debug, info, notice, warn, error, crit,
	# alert, emerg.
	LogLevel warn

	CustomLog /var/log/apache2/access.log combined

    Alias /doc/ "/usr/share/doc/"
    <Directory "/usr/share/doc/">
        Options Indexes MultiViews FollowSymLinks
        AllowOverride None
        Order deny,allow
        Deny from all
        Allow from 127.0.0.0/255.0.0.0 ::1/128
    </Directory>

</VirtualHost>

I have put the livecode server every where to try without any success.

Instead of launching the script, it shows it as text in the browser.

Any idea ? thanks in advance.

First thing I notice is that your script alias points to the executable not just the containing folder.
ScriptAlias /livecode-cgi/livecode-server /srv/www/livecodeServer/livecode-server

Notice the one below it just points to folder
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/


So you might change your scriptalias to

ScriptAlias /livecode-cgi/ /srv/www/livecodeServer/

Or even easier, just put livecode-server and its folders into /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ and don't bother adding an alias.

Also, check permissions and ownership, and... did you restart apache after editing the conf file?

Hello

Thanks for your help.
I have found a solution that works with that Linode server + ubuntu 10.04

For the 000-default conf file in /etc/apache2/site-enabled, you just add :

Code: Select all

	    AddHandler livecode-script .lc
        Action livecode-script /cgi-bin/livecode-server

in this directive :

Code: Select all

	<Directory /srv/www/>
		Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
		AllowOverride None
		Order allow,deny
		Allow from all
	    AddHandler livecode-script .lc
        Action livecode-script /cgi-bin/livecode-server
	</Directory>

Then for your Vhost, you write :

Code: Select all

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "/usr/lib/cgi-bin/"
<VirtualHost *:80>
     ServerAdmin webmaster@mydomain.com
     ServerName mydomain.net
     ServerAlias mydomain.net
     DocumentRoot /srv/www/mydomain/
     ErrorLog /srv/www/mydomain/logs/error.log
     CustomLog /srv/www/mydomain/logs/access.log combined
     
     
    AddHandler livecode-script .lc
    Action livecode-script /cgi-bin/livecode-server
</VirtualHost>

then do not forget to chmod 755 all the cgi-bin

then reload apache.
