Hi, Can you tell us what documentation you worked with? At what steps do you have problems? What is working what is not? The problem of the documentation is that every OS puts Apache files in other paths. The other thing is that you can put your file everwhere you want as long as you configure Apache correctly. So it is impossible to document the process for all systems. But we can certainly improve the documentation.
Is QGIS server working at all? Did you test running QGIS server and use QGIS desktop as a client? It is usually a several step process to set up: 1. install of the fcgi binaries (or compile from source) 2. Install Apache 3. configure apache for using mod_fcgi 4. test QGIS server manually (GetCapbilities, GetMap, GetFeatureInfo) 5. test QGIS server with QGIS Destkop as a client 6. install the necessary files of QGIS web client 7. Copy GlobalOptions.js file from one of the templates 8. Edit GlobalOptions.js - e.g. set the path to your fcgi, decide whether to use GetCapabilities (older QGIS server, e.g. QGIS 1.8) or GetProjectSettings (newer QGIS server, current master) If anything fails you can fire up the developer tools in Google Chrome or Firebug - have a look at the network requests where the client calls the fcgi file. Copy that URL and see if it works or why not (e.g. wrong paths). Hope this helps a bit, Andreas Am 03.02.2013 02:17, schrieb bogusman: > I'm a GIS newbie though an old hand in other technologies.
