I installed the VM for Netdb from this page (https://sourceforge.net/projects/netdbtracking/files/vmware/) a few months ago and it's been working great. But when I tried to update the system via apt-get dist-upgrade, I started getting a 403 error when trying to load the main page. It looks like the update to Ubuntu ver 14 removes or resets some symlinks, folder, or file permissions. I tried using chmod & chown to add read and execute permissions back to the various Netdb files and folder, but no luck. Does anyone know of a way to refresh or reset the permissions without having to do a full re-install? The file netdb.pl is still there, but I'm not sure about the permissions and symlinks for it.
Here is the error I get:
Forbidden
You don't have permission to access /cgi-bin/netdb.pl on this server.
Apache/2.4.7 (Ubuntu) Server at 192.168.182.135 Port 443
And here is the error from the Apache error log at /var/log/apache2/error.log
"Symbolic link not allowed or link target not accessible: /usr/lib/cgi-bin/netdb.pl" after upgrading
I can't help with that, but I would pay a bounty for somebody to keep this up-to-date on a long term release, like Ubuntu 18.04.1 LTS. This program is fantastic and we use it almost daily at work.
