Don't worry. Getting this stuff running the first time is a challenge everyone faces. For one reason or another, it rarely works the first time. Try posting your server setup here. Do a search on "404" in the Yahoo Groups index.
Note that Brad's discussion of Web servers is several years out of date. You should be using 'powered by Apache' not the old IBM HTTP server, unless you are on a very old OS. Ignore that chapter and read Giovanni's pages on Apache http://www.easy400.net/cgi400c2/httpdirect.htm http://www.easy400.net/easy400apc/ Check out the easy400 index for an overview of topics. http://www.easy400.net/cgidev2o/index.htm?ts=2005-10-28- 01.35.08.188000 Also the easy400 tutorial: http://www.easy400.net/cgidev2/start Next, Brad's implementation is similar to easy400. He uses the same underlying API's but uses different techniques, including heavy reliance on external Data structures and embedding chunks of HTML in your RPG code. I am more comfortable with easy400. Easy400 installation procedure is also much more user friendly and examples are more robust. marty --- In [email protected], "dfabianke" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hopefully, some of you have use Stones e-rpg book because I am stuck. > > I just started with the e-RPG book and I can't get my Hellopf program > to run in > a broswer.
