Title: Hard to install
Post by seven on 04/19/04 at 19:10:13

:) Hi I must say that it is a hard script to install. Can anyone explain in detail how I should make it work?

Here are my datas
# The name of your servers cgi-bin directory
$config{'cgi_dir'} = 'cgi-bin'; # Default for most servers

# The cgi-bin subdirectory where your eAuction.pl will be stored
$config{'auction_dir'} = 'eauction161';

# The Path to a 'NON-WEBACCESSABLE' directory of your system
# Maybe you have to chmode it if you use your own setting

$config{'get_path'} = 0; # Set this from 1 to 0 if you want to use your own setting
$config{'basepath'} = '/usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/dinauktion.com/cgi-bin/eauction161/datas';

If I set the switch to 1 I get permission denied, if I set the switch to 0 I get no such file or directory exist... I have set everything correct.

How many folders should there be for the userreg closed images etc?

I've been doing this one whole day and I really need help. My host is full of ???????

Pls help me I'll give you the ftp access if you do so

Bets regards,
Morgan

Hi beer lover!
Well it was not that simple. I have to add $config{'html_dir'} = 'httpdocs/eAuction_161';
$config{'get_path'} == 1 in order to get it to work as my server looks like this:

cgi-bin
--eAuction161
--eAuction.pl
--eConfig161.pl
--eAction_161
--eAuction161
+ rest of the directories

httpdocs(the root)
--eAuction_161
--img_upload
--auction_pics
---httpdocs(I had to make one)
--eAuction_161
--img_upload
--auction_pics

Ok everything worked so far but......
When I upload the images from local drive, they end up in the root under img_upload which is correct but when looking on the page the img src points to http://www.mydomain.com/httpdocs/eAuction_161/img_upload!!!! So therefore I made a 2nd httpdocs in order to copy the pics from the root folder, just to see what it looked like.

The basepath is /usr/local/psa/home/vhosts/mydomain.com/httpdocs this will be the root to www.

I must say I'm totally lost and I will buy you beer if you help me.

Check it at http://www.dinauktion.com/eAction161/eAuction.pl?lang=1

Pls send me an email at guitarpower@msn.com also messenger and I will give you the ftp right to take a look. Name your price!!!!!!!

Hope that you can help me,

Best regards from Sweden

Ps. I really love your script because it is so dynamical and I am really looking forward to test the MySql if I may
