Hi all, Now that I figured out the config problem, I'm running great guns and everything seems to be working. I'd like to enable web browser access. I've read the manual and tutorial pretty carefully over the last two days, but am not quite sure what I need to serve out to browsers. The screenshots suggest a file called refdbquery.htm but I can't find it. Am I missing a section in the manual or tutorial, or is there something else obvious? I've used apache a fair bit and so have an idea how I'm supposed to handle the actual server and URL business. It is the specific refdb files I should be aiming at that I can't figure out. Appreciate any help... -d -- Daniel Paul O'Donnell Associate Professor and Chair of English Director, Digital Medievalist Project <http://www.digitalmedievalist.org/> University of Lethbridge Lethbridge AB T1K 3M4 Canada Vox +1 403 329-2377 Fax +1 403 382-7191 :@caedmon/ubuntu |

Hi Daniel, the web interface is one of these dusty corners that would require someone who really takes care of. Once there was a really simple CGI-based web interface including a manual section. I dropped that because it was too clumsy. Somebody was nice enough to donate a reimplementation in PHP, but all you get in terms of a manual is a INSTALL in the phpweb subdirectory. There was an inquiry just the other day to improve the interface, but I haven't heard anything since. I'd be more than happy if we had an improved interface and a manual section describing it. If you followed the terse instructions in the phpweb/INSTALL file, you should be able to either open: http://localhost/refdb/ (including the trailing slash) or http://localhost/refdb/index.html or from a remote box http://hostname/refdb/index.html regards, Markus Daniel O'Donnell <dan...@ul...> was heard to say: > Hi all, > > Now that I figured out the config problem, I'm running great guns and > everything seems to be working.

Unless it ends up somewhere odd, it looks like phpweb is not installed with the debian binary (I'm assuming it would end up with the rest of the directories in /usr/share/refdb?). I'll pull it out of the source and try it out. -d On Wed, 2006-31-05 at 09:24 +0200, Markus Hoenicka wrote: > Hi Daniel, > > the web interface is one of these dusty corners that would require someone who > really takes care of.

Hello Daniel, I installed refdb from the debian package. Remember that this is very old package and some very useful things were added afterwards. As to www interface, I do not remember it it came with the package, but I have it in /usr/share/refdb/www/ In any case, it is better to get www interface from the new source since some bugs were fixed recently.
