Hey,

I apologize if this is answered on the FAQ or in the Wiki -- I couldn't
get either of them to resolve.

Does cgiirc support SSL?

- Craig
"Ne te quaesiveris extra."

most irc clients autodetect utf-8 on incoming text and assume its a local=
ly
relavent character set (generally iso-8859-1 or windows-1252 which are ve=
ry
similar for western setups) if its not valid utf-8 unfortunately mirc is =
the
exception being only able to render windows-1252 at least on western wind=
ows
setups.

i'm not sure how cgiirc behaves in this regard since its a while since i'=
ve
used it can anyone clarify if it also does this kind of autodetection on
incoming text (if not it probablly should).

one unfortunate thing about irc is its too old to have character sets
specified by the protocol.

HI,

I'm quite new here and just I get on your nervs with this question, nonethe=
less I hope you can help me.
I have a question to you. Which chracter set I have to choose, if I want to=
 write or read letters like '=E4', '=F6', '=FC' or '=DF'. Either utf-8 nor =
iso8859-1 is working on every browser/irc application.

The funny thing is, that it might depend on the character set, other chatti=
ng people are using. Some see the right letters, other only see some funny =
signs.

Is it an configuration fault on my config-file, or depends it on the server=
/os the cgiirc-script is running? what do I need to know, wo configure my s=
cript right?

I would be pleased, if you can help me.

Greets John

Hi List,

the installation was fine and CGI::IRC is working. But after
approximately 30 lines of text the client hung up and after approx. 1
minute the irc-server say: ping timeout. I've tested the client with
euirc.net and several servers of this network but I think this is not a
network-issue. Possible its just a timeout-setting in a conf-file of
perl or so? DO you have any idea how can I solve the ping-timeouts?

Thank you so much,

Regards,

Bleistift

that doesn't look like a cgiirc problem you'll have to speak to the admins
of the irc network or move to another one

    Hi Guys,

    I've been obedient and browsed through the archives. So I'm posting my
question here hoping someone would help me out. I'd installed cgi:irc and I
could log in but it appeared to fail at identd request. I wanted to install
identd.pl but the dirs recommended by the help files were not available in
my host server. i only have a public_html, which is the root, followed by
cgi-bin and some other sub-dirs. So where should I place the identd.pl and
what files must I change to reference to it?

    Thanks

it sounds like thats because its not your server and it seems very unlikely
that you will be able to run an identd. for ident to work the identd has to
be triggered by incoming connections on a privilaged port so unless you have
root access you have no way to set this up.

Basically Safari doesn't always support streams that CGI:IRC use, so 
therefore it will not always work on Safari, this is a Safari problem.

The message comes from CGI:IRC because it notices this and so 
recommends you use Firefox.

There is a workaround but unfortunately it's not something you can 
really tell users to do:
- Enable the Debug menu in Safari,
- Near the bottom there is a 'Supported Protocols' option,
- Remove the tick next to 'http: (Simple Loader)' (leaving CFNetwork 
Loader ticked),
- CGI:IRC should work.

You have to do this each time you run Safari too, so it's not really a 
long term workaround. The reason it sometimes seems to work is Safari 
presumably chooses to use the CFNetwork loader - I don't know why this 
is though. If you want to test it try 
http://dgl.otherwize.co.uk/teststream.cgi with the different loaders.

David.

If I use Safari 2.0 under MacOS X, the message comes at the beginning:
This web-based IRC interface probably won't work well or at all with  
your browser.
  and the Buttons for the color attitudes (down) is not colored. What  
can I do?

Generally, yes. =) Assuming your cgi-bin directory is set up correctly
on your server.

Also, one thing to note is that usually a cgi-bin directory is called
just that: cgi-bin. Are you sure that your cgi-bin mapping is set to the
simple directory of just "cgi"?

Try hitting this URL and see if you don't get better results:
www.mydomainname.net/cgi-bin/irc.cgi

Even if the directory on your web server is simply called "cgi" your
apache mapping usually points to "cgi-bin". You'll also want to make
sure your web server supports mod_perl.

Hope this helps!

I've never installed a cgi/perl app before.  I am used to working with
php.  I downloaded the .zip archive of CGI:IRC and unzipped it to my
desktop (WinXP Pro).  I then uploaded it (via FTP Voyager) to the CGI
bin of my web server (a linux server).  I then pointed my browser at
www.mydomainname.net/cgi/irc.cgi and I got a 404 message.  Now before
I go checking permissions and mucking around, is this how you install
a cgi app?  Just copy it to a folder under the cgi bin and point a
browser to it as you would any other address?  Thanks for your time.

-Adam R.

I have a PHP scripted site that is using cgiirc.  My current config file 
tries to set the username but the IRC servers requires the username be 
unique for each user.  As a result the first user into cgiirc gets in 
fine and all others fail.  How do I via the HTML form that I use to 
connect the user, set a unique username (not to be confused with nickname).

As far as I'm concerned DCC in CGI:IRC would be a security nightmare 
and it's not something I'm prepared to support.

You need to patch the ircd usually:

Hi,

I have just installed and configured cgi irc for my irc channel, but
what i wanted was a way (if there is one) of changing what the
hostmask that appears is.

This is because at home (where i run cgiirc from) has a hugely long
hostmask.  If possible, i would rather this be the IP, or a given
mask.

Cheers for any help you may provide.

You appear to be trying to connect to an IRCD using a web browser, you 
need to go to irc.cgi on a web server to use CGI:IRC..
