Thanks Rob, that managed to clear the fault with the imgpath object, but it
still fails with

make: *** [custom_install] Error 1

Cheers

Subject: Re: [Sandweb-users] Problems installing on Fedora


I haven't checked out Fedora yet, but I find it hard to imagine
how Perl 5.8 could be very different. 

That's an odd error.. the only place all the other variables
of that type are used is to print out the location for the user..
we're not assigning variables, we're reading them in from the
$config object.

Anyway.. try this, insert this into line 14 of
sandweb/tools/install_script.pl:

"imgpath    = $config::imgpath\n",



Thanks,
Rob

[Sandweb-users] Problems

[startux.org w. <web...@st...>]

Hi,

I have a repository in /usr/local/share/sandewb/users/livro/CVSROOT
My Repository root is configured as /usr/local/share/sandewb/users/livro

I am unable to add a module to it since when i try to do it i get the
message
"An error occurred. A call to the shell gave us this error code : 1
cvs [checkout aborted]: Cannot check out files into the repository itself"

What am i doing wrong ?
I've checked the README very carefully, but still it doesn't works :-(

Any ideas ?

Thank you.

Warm regards,
M=E1rio Gamito

Re: [Sandweb-users] Always login incorrect

[Robert H. <ro...@ro...>]

SandWeb stores the password (by default, unless you change it during
install) in /usr/local/share/sandweb/data/passwd

Please note that they are MD5 encoded, and SandWeb runs Javascript
on the login page to make a digest version of the password, so
your web browser must support Javascript.

What browser are you using?



Thanks,
Rob

[Sandweb-users] Always login incorrect

[startux.org w. <web...@st...>]

Hi,=20

I've just installed sandweb, but when i had a user (using "sandweb-admin
--add-user xpto" and give the password), i cannot never login.
Always says "Login incorrect, please try again."

I've tried several logins and password and nothing solved the problem.

BTW, where does sandweb stores the logins and passwords ?

Thank you.

Warm regards,
M=E1rio Gamito

Re: [Sandweb-users] Errors in installation and after

[Robert H. <ro...@ro...>]

Hmm.. works ok for me on RH9. Are you sure Perl is installed 
correctly? I just looked at the output of this on my box :

rpm -qa | grep perl

It looks like RH split off CGI.pm into it's own package,
perl-CGI-2.81-88.3

Are you sure that's installed?

I have a RH9 box here, I'll test it out and see if I get something

What version of SandWeb do you have?

[Sandweb-users] Errors in installation and after

[startux.org w. <web...@st...>]

Hi,

When i tried to run "perl Makefile.pl", i got this error:
"Warning: prerequisite CGI 0 not found."

So, i've commented out this pre-requisite in Makefile.pl, since it
seemed very odd to me.

After that, i've compiled and installed successfully sandweb, but when i
try sandweb with the browser i get this errors from Apache logs:

"BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at
/usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/sandweb.cgi line 59.
Premature end of script headers: /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/sandweb.cgi"

Looking at line 59 of sandweb.cgi, i've found a call to CGI::Carp, a
perl module.

Well, something weird is happening here.
It seems that sandweb is unware of perl native modules.

I'm using Red Hat 9, and Apache 1.3.28 compiled by myself.
I'm running successfully viewcvs, but sandweb is *exactly what i want*.

Any help would be appreciated.

Warm Regards,
M=E1rio Gamito

That's ok, this patch is pretty raw. There isn't a test for Unix auth
yet.

BTW, just for anyone reading the sandweb-users list, this is an
experimental patch we're trying to get working. You shouldn't have this
much trouble with the latest RC :)

Hmm.. that's weird. I'll check my version again, but mine seems to be
working ok. Were you not getting images in the toolbar?

Yeah, you have to create that dir by hand.. Interesting that it's saying
"reiuser logged on", seems to indicate that it's working. Dunno why
you're getting two logs of everything.

Do you know about the debug setting in sandweb.cfg ? It sends extra
debug output to the browser and to the log file; if it's still not
working try with debug on and send the output.

You sure /var/www/sandweb/share/users/reiuser/ exists and is writable by
the Apache user? That should be all there is to it. Does .user.cfg exist
in that directory?

BTW "/var/www/sandweb/share" isn't a good place to have the users stuff;
there are things in there you definitely don't want browsable. The
default of "/usr/local/share" is more secure.

Heh.. oh, I don't know. I get alot of enjoyment from this stuff,
although I have been wanting to get the next Dune book I haven't read (Heretics 
of Dune). I'd prefer a used copy, since I am really into recycling/reuse. I've
been using the library alot lately but their selection isn't always so
hot.

Re: [Sandweb-users] "make test" fails with "Can't call method debug"

[Eric S. <er...@re...>]

Interesting, I couldn't run that command you suggested (even with my $CVSROOT 
setup properly), but I could run: 

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:ano...@cv...:/cvsroot/sandweb co sandweb

In any case, make test came up with fewer errors, while the RC3 release seemed 
to work just fine this morning.


BTW, I'm running Apache2, and I'd like to be able to just use mod_auth_ldap to 
authenticate users against my central ldap directory.  Do you have any idea 
on whether I should go down the path of mod_auth_ldap, or will I need extra 
information in sandweb that will require hacking the code?

Thanks,
Eric

[Sandweb-users] 1.0RC3 Released!

[Rob H. <ro...@ro...>]

Hello,


SandWeb 1.0RC3 has been released!

Changes :

* fixed all known bugs since RC2
* no more Perl 5.8 warnings (thanks to nkj)

Please note that it is on the release-1_0-branch tag in CVS,
NOT on the trunk (there is active feature development happening on
the trunk right now).

Please report any bugs you find; if this one proves to be solid,
then it'll be re-released as 1.0!



Thanks,
Rob Helmer

Hello,


We're ready to do another RC release off the release-1_0-branch in CVS,
can you do a "cvs co -r release-1_0-branch sandweb" from our anoncvs
server and see if it works?

Or, you can just wait a day or two and rc3 will come out. It'd be cool
if you can test it from CVS though, just to make sure we don't release
rc3 with a bug..



Thanks,
Rob

These are fixed in the latest release branch (pre-RC3). We're waiting
on another (mostly cosmetic) fix to release RC3.

You can get to it normally by doing an anonymous checkout from sf.net :

CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs.sf.net:/cvsroot/sandweb
cvs login
<enter>
cvs co -r release-1_0-branch sandweb

However, SourceForge seems to be having problems, so I put up a test
release (note - this is not the official RC3 release!! :)):
http://sandweb.sf.net/sandweb-1_0RC3-pre.tgz

There are alot of fixes for things that are warnings in Perl 5.8 (but
weren't for 5.6).

That's weird. What user did you run "sandweb-admin" as? 
Check the permissions on your user's directory, e.g.
/usr/local/share/sandweb/users

If it's not owned or at least read/writable by the Apache user, then
change it to be so (e.g. "chown -R www /usr/local/share/sandweb/users").

That's fixed in the latest code too.

ps -ef | grep httpd

That should tell you what user it's running as.

su

su nobody

Well, at least a few of them have.
I'm using SandWeb on Solaris 8 right now, seems to be working ok..

It's great to have other people testing though, because we get all
these issues I never run into myself :)

[Sandweb-users] Perl 5.8.0 and logging in

[Nathan B. <NBa...@ap...>]

Hi.

=20

I've installed all the software needed, and I've got a few questions. =20

=20

First off, I'm running Apache 2.0.45, and Perl 5.8.0 ( I have the
version numbers of the perl modules, if you want them).

The system is running on SunOS 5.8 (ie Solaris) on a Blade 100.

=20

I have a feeling that this is directly related to a problem that I read
about posted on 5/15/03, titled "Loging problem". =20

=20

Here's the error message:

42% /usr/local/bin/sandweb-admin --add-user nathanb

Using a hash as a reference is deprecated at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/SandWeb/Config.pm line 352.

Using a hash as a reference is deprecated at
/usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/SandWeb/Config.pm line 353.

Enter password for nathanb:

=20

Also, when I try to log in to the web, it says "Unable to write config
file for nathanb." After I enter the "Full Name".

=20

When I checked the apache error_log file, I find this line near the
bottom (carriage returns added for readability):

=20

[Thu Jun 26 16:35:59 2003] [error] [client 192.76.251.167] Using a hash

l_n
ame=3DNathan+Barhorst&confirm_delete=3Don

=20

I get these entries whenever I try to log into the website.

=20

=20

First off, I believe that the apache user is 'nobody', but I'm not sure.
I'm not sure how I check this. =20

=20

Second, how does one su to the user nobody?  I've read from your posts
to the previously mentioned message, and noted that I should run
sandweb-admin as the user that apache uses to access the file.  The
passwd file has "NP" where the password for nobody should be, but when I
try to su nobody, and leave the password blank, it says that it is an
invalid password.  As a hunch, I su'd to root, changed the privileges on
the /usr/local/share/sandweb/data/passwd file so that all had read/write
access to it (for testing purposes), but I still have the same problems.

=20

Is there any word on whether the latest CVS entries after RC2 have fixed
these problems?

=20

Any other suggestions?

=20

Thanks!

=20

Re: [Sandweb-users] Authentication Problem

[Rob H. <ro...@ro...>]

1.5? Huh.. this is the one we used : 
http://search.cpan.org/author/GAAS/Digest-MD5-2.24/MD5.pm

(as per sandweb/INSTALL, we tested with 2.13-2)

Let us know if that works better :)

Re: [Sandweb-users] SandWeb with CVSNT

[Rob H. <ro...@ro...>]

Hey,


I checked this into the release branch, you'll need to do a CVS checkout 
if you'd like to test
it out.

Make sure to use the sandweb-1_0-branch tag! e.g. :

cvs co -r sandweb-1_0-branch sandweb

[Sandweb-users] Authentication Problem

[Gordon J. <go...@to...>]

Hello,

I am able to build and run SandWeb under the Cygwin
OS. I can successfully run the admin tool to create a
user called "test". When I try to log in I get the
following message:

Software error:

Undefined subroutine &SandWeb::Auth::FlatFile::md5_hex
called at
/usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/SandWeb/Auth/FlatFile.pm
line 175, <PF> line 2.

Note I installed the Perl module
Digest-Perl-MD5-1.5.tar.gz; hopefully that is the
right one.

Any help wopuld be appreciated.

Thanks,

Gordon Jones

Hmm.. it says "e/project/commit", I'm sure we're stripping ":" for security
reasons :/ yar.

Let me look into it; it's probably safe to allow.

[Sandweb-users] CVS with pserver

Dear Rob,

I have this errors:

DEBUG: (SandWeb::Shell) VCS command is : cd

Then sandweb said 
An error occurred. A call to the shell gave us this error code : 1 


Is there any wrong setting?

Hmm.. it says "e/project/commit", I'm sure we're stripping ":" for
security reasons :/ yar.

Let me look into it; it's probably safe to allow.
