Re: Installation on RAQ2



I've been dealing with MV on a RAQ system.

You might be having problems with your Perl install.  Go to Cobalt's
binary ftp's and download Perl pre-built for the RAQ2.

(ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com)

Next thing is get rid of that damn cgi-wrapper.  This will require you to
edit the Apache configuration file.  I'm not experienced enough in it to
be able to tell you to do what I have done, but I'll leave it up to the
list to fill you in.  (Wouldn't want to tell you to do something that'll
break it, you know...)

Next, since you say "weird chars" come out when you go to /cgi-bin/simple,
I'm thinking that your cgi-bin directory is not actually a ScriptAlias.

This line needs to be in httpd.conf:

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin /realpathtothecgibindir

I'm sure there's more to it than that, but I can't recall it off hand.

Hope I've pushed you in the right direction...
