Title: Can anybody help me out? Almost there
Post by Lakwaun on 12/01/04 at 17:21:11

How do I get the eAuction up and running in real time mode instead of on a local server. I thought I had it all right but when I went to try to register it said you are on a local server or something like that. Do I just have to publish the site to start it in real time? Or remove parts of the script? I also thought I needed help with the index.html file as far as getting my site to point right to the eAuction script. What I did though is pulled up the site out of the cgi-bin and then clicked view-----> source then copy and edited that source to my index.html and now my main site pops up right on the script but I am not sure I have the right directories or what. I added all the dir that I saw in the eAuction.pl script. Will this script self produce the directories and sub dir?

Any help or a nice price would be alot of help. Thanks in advance.

Open eConfig161.pl (use an editor prog).
Search the script for this line:

# Set this from 0 to 1 if the script is running with a real Web-Server
$config{'web_server'} = 0;

Change the value of $config{'web_server'} from 0 to 1.
Save the file and upload it to the cgi-bin of your server.

The script don't need an index.html file.
The script produces all needed directories (and the sub directories too).

The Path to a 'NON-WEBACCESSABLE' directory of your system

$config{'get_path'} = 1; # Set this from 1 to 0 if you want to use your own setting
$config{'basepath'} = '/Your/Basepath';

should I creat a new folder and put it in the cgi-bin or is this just for like my local server or local network?

As far as changing the look of the site I can edit that in the header part of the script right?

Also is there any add on script that will allow the owner of the site to change diffrent things and look of the site? Like a owner Control Pannel? I would like to change the layout of the main site page but it be user friendly.

When I put the eAuction.pl and eConfig161.pl in cgi-bin and give it the right chmond rights when I go to my website it pops up index of this is what I am trying to avoid.

Do you know what I did wrong.

hey I want to say thanks for the help.

I do have another question though do you know why in the middle of my page it says error? and it did say a real long directory with about 4 sub directories included in it? or it says

Error
closed
No such file or directory
right under the copyright part of the page.

Another thing is I posted a item just to test basiclly but I dont see the item I posted in my auction listinging.

how do I remove the: Version: 1.6.1.59 under the top website address header?

Everything looks good to me I just want to make sure everything is for security purposes.

You know nothing about Perl, CGI or how to install a script.
But you were very able to delete my copyright notice.
Sir - you are violating the license!
