Yes, it is 2 lower case v's. That log will often point out config. errors.

Thanks,
Todd

I have now tried that and found the spool file but nothing seems untoward
and still nothing in the errorlog. I assume that the letters were - V V
not
-W.



What

2009/1/23 <TAllen@xxxxxxxxxxxx>

Will starting the HTTP server with the -vv option give you what you need?

ex. STRTCPSVR SERVER (*HTTP) HTTPSVR(<INSTANCE_NAME> '-vv')

I think the spool file is available under the QTMHHTTP user profile.

Thanks,
Todd

Many thanks - I am researching to see if I can find such a log. NOthing
appears in the normal errorlog.

It looks okay but like I said, I don't have any way to test anything.
You
may want to look in the InfoCenter and see if there is a way to get the
server to give you a trace log. I think the classic server can do that
but I
don't remember. You may also find some information in the HTTP error
log
but
I think what it shows isn't quite as useful at the Apache based server
log.

You must think me very rude not to have replied to you before but
somehow
I
missed your kind post. As I still have not solved the problem, I was
researching today and so came across your reply.

Of course I tried your suggestion at once,

my code is

Protection TestProt {
PasswdFile %%SYSTEM%%
Authtype Basic
ACLOverride Off
PostMask All
GetMask All
ServerID www.erros.co.uk
Userid %%CLIENT%%
}
Protect /cgi-bin/stipple/* TestProt
CGIMode %%EBCDIC%%
PersistentCGITimeout 60 minutes
MaxPersistentCGITimeout 60 minutes
Exec /cgi-bin/hello /QSYS.LIB/E280CGIOBJ.LIB/hello
Exec /cgi-bin/stipple /QSYS.LIB/E290PRDOBJ.LIB/e29
Exec /cgi-bin/e29rpp/* /QSYS.LIB/E290PRDOBJ.LIB/E29RPP.PGM

I have restarted the server but still no luck

Does your memory go back far enough to suggest what I am doing wrong?

Many thanks

Rob

2009/1/13 Haas, Matt (CL Tech Sv) <matt.haas@xxxxxxxxxxx>

I had a minute to look at an old config and here is an example that
should
work:

Protection TESTPROT {
PasswdFile %%SYSTEM%%
ACLOverride Off
PostMask All
GetMask All
AuthType BASIC
ServerID some_name
UserID %%CLIENT%%
}

Protect /cgi-bin/stipple/* TESTPROT

Note that I have no way to test this.

I saw it only again recently but I am not sure where. I thought that
it
was
on one of the sites I have been using to learn CGIDEV2 but I have
looked
at
the pages I have book marked recently, from Search400 and Easy400,
and
I
cannot find it. I didn't dream it up. If I come across it again, I
will
let you know.

I had already tried the InfoCenter but can't find the answer. I need
to
find a site with lots of configuration examples rather than simply
the
syntax.

Many thanks

Rob

Rob,

Where did you find it published that the Apache version isn't the
best
for
V5R1 (it does stink on V4R5)? I ran it there for several years
without
problems. In fact, it made my life much, much easier since virtual
hosts
were easier to maintain.

As far as configuring the Original server goes, I don't think I
have
any
of
those configurations around any more. I know that I learned how to
set
all
of that up using the documentation from the InfoCenter. It may be
worth
a
look there.

Matt

Thanks Matt

I am using the original HTTP server on this V5R1 box because I have
read
several well known published experts say that this is best on V5R1
and
Apache should be left for V5R2 or for V5R3 when there is no choice.
I
do
use it on a V5R3 box but, since I rarely need to change the
configuration,
I
am even less skilled on that than on the Original server.

I tried putting in a Protect statement but without success. I did
restart
the server.

I already had a protection directive - please could you tell me
what
the
protec tstatement should say and where it should go?

Many thanks

Rob Dixon

2009/1/13 Haas, Matt (CL Tech Sv) <matt.haas@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Rob,

First off, why are you still using the Original server? The
Apache
based
one is much, much better.

To answer your question, you are missing the Protect statement.

Matt

I have got to the stage with my CGIDEV2 development where I now
want
to
work
using User IDs. According to the manual, including

Protection /cgi-bin/stipple/* {
Authtype Basic
Userid %%CLIENT%%
PasswdFile %%SYSTEM%%
}

in my HTTPCFG file should do the trick but nothing happens. I
have
put
this ahead of my Exec statement which reads

Map /cgi-bin/stipple/*
/QSYSLIB.LIB/E290PRDOBJ.LIB/E290G00000.PGM

This exec statement works fine.

I wish to use standard User profiles rather than a password file.

Can anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong?

Many thanks

Rob Dixon
