Hello:

I have recently moved my calendars from my home server to an ISP server. Since the move calendar.pl seems to work fine and I can view my calendars but I get a 404 error when trying to use calendar_admin.pl. The problem seems to be the the '$CGI_URL' defaults to '/var/www/cgi-bin/calendar/calendar_admin.pl' which does not work (calendar_admin.pl by itself does work)

I have set the $BASE_DIR to everything I can think of, without any luck.

Anyone have any ideas as to how I can get around this problem??

My browser is IE6.
My ISP running Apache-1.3.27-ensim1.
Everything was uploaded in ASCII mode.
Path to Perl is fine.
Debug.pl says it should run fine.
My ISP is Doteasy.com, their help has been little more than
sending me a list of other calendar software providers.

Thanks.

A calendar can be reached at http://cogbl.com/cgi-bin/calendar/calendar.pl?calendar=MississaugaW

Does it? All the links look wrong to me.

You will at least need to change the values of the "calendar_url" and "calendar_admin_url" variables in the config.txt file located in the calendarscript directory. They must be URLs as well, not paths.

** I have set the $BASE_DIR **

I don't know that that would be necessary.

Fellow Doteasy member,

Here's the issue:

When we define the BASE_DIR as whatever, the doteasy server appends it to the html directory. Here's the last line from my error_log:

[Thu May 29 19:16:55 2003] [error] [client 68.160.229.56] File does not exist: /home/virtual/site202/fst/var/www/html/var/www/cgi-bin/calendar_admin.pl

At this point, I'm not sure that you or I can do anything about it. If you're like me and just upgraded to the Ultra Hosting, this isn't the only nuisance that you've encountered.

I finally did get it working !

I played with every setting and nothing worked.

I fond that the only way I could get it to work was to change line 322 (on my calendar_admin.pl)

FROM:

$Template::CGI_URL = $ENV{'SCRIPT_NAME'} | | $ENV{'REQUEST_URI'};

TO:

$Template::CGI_URL = {'SCRIPT_NAME'} | | $ENV{'REQUEST_URI'};

Removing the $ENV worked in my case.

Thanks for your help, I will arrange for payment for the script at or next league meeting.

PS: you are right Micki this 'Ultra' hosting has been an 'Ultra' pain.
