[Webware-discuss] AppServer will not start

[Roger B. <rbu...@bl...>]

Hi,

Updated my site with version 0.8.1 (www.modwest.com, running Redhat Linux
2.4 series kernel)

OneShot.cgi works with occasional session key errors.

Host ModWest will not install mod_webkit and does not allow compilation,
so I cannot use wkcgi either (no access to linux, is it possible to get a
compatible pre-compile binary?).

Seems that WebKit.cgi is the only alternative, but it will not start:

rburnham@modwest:/$ ./AppServer

Exiting AppServer

rburnham@modwest:/$ cat AppServer
#!/bin/sh

# as long as the appserver returns a 3, it wants to be restarted

cd /htdocs/www/Webware/WebKit
retcode=3D3
while test $retcode -eq 3; do
    /usr/bin/python2.2 Launch.py ThreadedAppServer $*
    retcode=3D$?
done


Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks!
