installation help

Hi guys

somehow my webserver doesn't seem to be prepared to execute .pl as cgi

I have this in my
        <Directory /usr/share/ledgersmb>
                #  SetHandler perl-script
                AddHandler cgi-script .pl
                Options ExecCGI Includes FollowSymlinks
                Order deny,allow
                deny from all
                allow from 192.168.0.0/16
        </Directory>

Apache 2.2

I know I must be missing something basic ...

secondly: the SVN does not load :( I can't get at the manual ...

thanks

Bernhard

I installed ledgersmb on Ubuntu Gutsy a couple of days back. Some of
your files you listed are also owned by www-data, so it appears you are
also using a Debian derivative. When I extracted the ledgersmb tgz in to
/usr/local, I changed the ownership of the tree to www-data and never
encoutered this problem:
$> sudo chown -R www-data:www-data /usr/local/ledgersmb

Before doing that many files were owned by root.

More experienced users on this list will, of course, point out if I am
missing something.

Good luck.

Hmmm, what README.debian did you use? This doesn't sound like the
/usr/share/doc/ledgersmb/README.Debian that shipped with the 1.2.15
.deb release

Do you happen to remember which these were so we can work toward
getting them included for the .deb?

OK, so I'm thinking maybe you weren't using
/usr/share/doc/ledgersmb/README.Debian and that's why you started
using the regular INSTALL file. Typically in a Debian package we
wouldn't even have included INSTALL (in fact, it creates a packaging
warning which I had to override), but I made the choice to keep it
because it had a nice troubleshooting FAQ in it (devs - can we move
troubleshooting FAQ to another file so we can stop including INSTALL
in our .deb? :)). The /usr/share/doc/ledgersmb/README.Debian is what
we expect users to use for installation on Debian/Ubuntu, many of the
issues you go on to explain in this installation report are addressed
there.

Thanks,

Eeep. There is a Debian package that will probably help a lot:
