I've been tinkering with a weblet cgi script to download logs that I'm keeping on a spare hdd in one of my Bering systems. I've put an ash shell script in /var/sh-www/cgi-bin/.
I'm close... oh so close... but not quite there!
The problem is that the shell script does deliver the file I want but never names it correctly. The script always names the file with the same name as the shell script. Eg, the script is a file called "filetest". The file to download is "/mnt/hdd/logs.tar.gz"
When I use any browser (Mozilla on Linux or IE on Windows) to hit http://firewall/cgi-bin/filetest, I get a dialog box prompting me to save the file as "filetest". If I save it and open it up, it contains the contents of "logs.tar.gz" - a gzipped tar.
The content of the shell script are: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh
echo Pragma: no-cache echo Expires: 0 echo Content-Type: application/force-download echo Content-Type: application/download echo Content-Type: application/octet-stream echo Content-Disposition: attachment; filename=logs.tar.gz echo Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary echo
cat /mnt/hdd/logs.tar.gz -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
/etc/sh-httpd.mime contains:
htm text/html html text/html txt text/plain css text/css
gif image/gif jpg image/jpeg jpeg image/jpeg tif image/tiff tiff image/tiff png image/png
lrp application/octet-stream gz encoding/x-gzip tgz encoding/x-gzip
I *think* the problem may be to do with mime types because Mozilla prompts to download a file of type "text/plain" - the default filetype for Bering weblet, even though the shell script is stating "Content-Type: application/octet-stream" .
I don't know. Somehow it feels as though I'm almost there. Am I missing something simple here?
Thanks!
