Re: Setting up Minivend on RHL 5.2 w/ Perl 5.005_02--HELP!!!!!!



******    message to minivend-users from raisplin <raisplin@rcn.com>     ******

OK, I just tried re-installing minivend-3.11 AGAIN..<sigh> here are the 
steps I took, maybe someone can tell me where I went wrong....

all of this is done as root:

1) edited /var/named/db.domain added:
		
		store                   IN      CNAME   ns1.domain.com.
     
     (note: also changed serial number like one is supposed to)

2)	restart named
	
3) edited httpd.conf added:
		
		<VirtualHost 209.208.181.200>
	 User #517
		ServerAdmin minivend@domain.com
		DocumentRoot /www/docs/store.domain.com
		ServerName store.domain.com
		ErrorLog logs/store.domain.com-error_log
		TransferLog logs/store.domain.com-access_log
		ScriptAlias /cgi-store/ /www/cgis/store.domain.com
		</VirtualHost>
		
		note: user 517 is minivend according to /etc/passwd in group minivend 
(517)

4) restart httpd

5) cd /usr/src
6) tar -zxvf minivend-latest.tar.gz
	note: this created /usr/src/minivend-3.11
	
7) cd minivend-3.11

8) ./configure

	(note: see first message for output...included any changes I made below)
	
	Where is your MiniVend to be installed? [/root/mvend] 
/www/docs/store.domain.com/mvend
	
opted not to make the simple catalog

9) was asked for admin name/passwd, entered them

10) chown -R minivend:minivend /www/docs/store.domain.com/
	
	looking at permissions on the cgi directory:
		
		drwxrwxr-x   2 minivend minivend     1024 Feb 20 22:35 store.domain.com
		
	and for store.domain.com
		
		-rw-------   1 minivend minivend    51786 Feb 20 22:50 error.log
		drwxrwxr-x   9 minivend minivend     1024 Feb 20 22:35 mvend
		drwxr-xr-x   3 minivend minivend     1024 Feb 20 22:35 simple	
		
	going through all of the sub directories for minivend reveals that all 
files are set to
	owner:group of minivend:minivend

10) ran makecat
11) su minivend
12) restarted server with the /bin/restart (in mvend direcotry)


13) Trying to access the store from 
http://store.domain.com/cgi-store/simple results in a 404
14) Trying to access the store from http://store.domain.com/simple works 
as far as bringing up 
the first  catalog page, but none of the links work, except the ones on 
the line that reads
"Minivend Documentation (frames) and FAQ" at the very bottom...all other 
links return a 404.

This is extremely frustrating...heh, installing and configuring the new 
sendmail 8.9.x was easier

so what am I doing wrong here?  I appreciate all the help that I have 
gotten so far, but either I 
am missing something, or something is extremely wrong.

Regards,

Greg
