[Refdb-users] troubles with phpweb setup

[Cecile H. <cec...@tu...>]

Dear all,

I am trying to set up pwpweb  under suse linux 10.1, without much 
success :-(

refdfworks fine, still in the "debug" mode (refdbd -s -e 0 -l 7), I can 
connect thru refdba and refdbc, manage users and references...

I am using apache2 and webmin as an administration interface, and I have 
the feeling the example apache configuration example does not look lke 
the config files I have. I was not able to bring the link from 
/usr/local/share/refdb/www/ to /refdb/ to work, neither by using a 
symbolic link (even with +FollowSimLinkoption) nor by making the link in 
the config file.

So I tryed to  hard copy the www directory to the  root directory of my 
web server. This works somehow, I can see the pages, fill the forms, ask 
for references and get no errors messages... but no references at all. 
And I see nothing happening in the window where refdbd should give logs.


Does phpweb needs refdb working as a daemon??
Can someone tell me how to set up apache2 properly?
Does someone knows where the error can come from?

Thank you for any help!
  Cécile
