Hi all
I would like to raise this issue again but progressed a bit with a different
approach. The problem that IE opens 'Unknown file type' dialog box to save/open
the executed .pl file is (may be) because of the apache server returns with
application/xhtml+xml content-type header.
After confirming this with outputting in curl, I tried to configure httpd.conf
in apache as reported in other articles/forums but still cannot get the desired
report page to be displayed.
FYI, here is the excerpt from the httpd.conf
<IfModule rewrite_module>
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} \.xhtml$
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} .*MSIE.* [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_ACCEPT} application/xhtml\+xml\s*;\s*q=0\.?0*(\s|,|$)
RewriteRule .* - [T=text/html]
</IfModule>
Did any one using analog faced a similar situation or those who using apache
server with analog, can you check whether it is working when you query the
analog using the web page in Internet Explorer please?
Please shed your views if I am wrong anywhere too.
Many thanks
Shivram Rajamanickam

That sounds like a problem with MIME types. I'd suggest using a command
line tool line like wget or curl to see the full headers being returned
by the web server - the web browser uses that information to decide how
to handle the response.

Thanks Aengus.
Now I have resolved the first issue, I mean the problem with the pie
charts.
I wrongly understood the purpose of CHARTDIR and LOCALCHARTDIR as I
assumed LOCALCHARTDIR is an alternative image directory and thats why I
specified completely different paths for both the commands.
Anyway, now after pointing them correctly, it worked.
But still, I need something to do with the second issue, the
browser/server running perl.
It works fine with firefox as the server understands perl being called
and runs them to show the output. But, it is not working with Internet
Explorer as it pops the save/download window.
Here again, I have attached the bit from httpd.conf for asking to
execute perl
AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/cgi-bin/"
<Directory "C:/Program Files/Apache Software
Foundation/Apache2.2/cgi-bin">
Options +ExecCGI +FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Can anyone please give any idea to solve this?
Thanks
Shiv.

Anaog doesn't know anything about the structure of your web server, so
CHARTDIR is basically substituted directly into the IMG SRC tag in the
HTML
file that Analog generates. It tells your web browser what the web path
to
the images is. Usually, if Report.html is in \analog\ and LOCALCHARTDIR
is
in \analog\pngs, the CHARTDIR will be pngs\ (or .\pngs\).

But that's not where you told Ananlog to put the charts that it
generates,
unless you've told Apache to map /icons/analog_images to
C:\Downloads\analog 6.0\pngs\

I'm going to pass on that one - it's been a couple of years since I set
up
anlgform.pl on Apache, and I don't really remember the details. I'm sure
someone else will have an answer.
