OK I am making progress! For the record, in case anyone else runs in to this, here is what I have found:
I am running ubuntu 10.04 and RD 2.1.4. For whatever reason, I did not install apache on my client computer, so I installed that. I then snagged a copy of addcart.html off the net and copied it into the /var/www folder. (this is the default apache location for web pages..) Next I copied /usr/share/doc/rivendell/examples/conf/rd-bin.conf to: /etc/apache2/conf.d now when I go to http://localhost/rd-bin/addcart.html I get a web page! However, I still can't import audio. When I go into RDlibrary, and try to import a WAV file into the cart, I get a "Unable to create destination file" error. I check my /var/log/apache2/error.log and I see the following: File does not exist: /var/www/rd-bin/rdxport.cgi Did a google for an example, and I can't find one. ==== So could some please post an example for me? Or perhaps there is something else I need to do. I am open to suggestions As usual The people here have been so helpful, and I appreciate it. -- Mike Station Engineer WVMC-FM ------------- http://www.wvmcfm.com Mansfield 90.7 Ashland 91.1 Wooster 102.7 -------- Forwarded Message -------- From: Gregg Wonderly <[email protected]> To: [email protected], User discussion about the Rivendell Radio Automation System <[email protected]> Subject: Re: [RDD] [Fwd: RE: Can't import audio - Invalid URL] Date: Mon, 10 Sep 2012 14:29:32 -0500 On Sep 10, 2012, at 2:13 PM, Mike T. <[email protected]> wrote: > Wayne, > > I finally got back to the not able to import WAVs issue.

This would reconfigure the rivendell build environment in the source root for rivendell, and needs to be run from that directory, wherever you have unpacked the rivendell .tar.gz at.
