help- having problems with apache and rivet50 under windows

[Gavin McLeod]

Hi

 

I'm completely new to rivet, done some tcl years ago, and played with apache on and off.

having problems getting it running under XP (sp2)

 

I have Installed Apache 1.3.33 using the windows msi installer

I have ActiveTCL 8.4.11, and have installed Rivet 0.50 using the windows binary.

 

It has modified my httpd.conf like so;

 

LoadModule rivet_module modules/mod_rivet.so

 

<IfModule mod_rivet.c>
    RivetServerConf CacheSize 50
    AddType application/x-httpd-rivet .rvt
    AddType application/x-rivet-tcl .tcl

 

    Alias /rivet/ "C:\opt\Tcl\lib/rivet0.5.0/tests/"
    <Directory "C:\opt\Tcl\lib/rivet0.5.0/tests/">
        Options Indexes FollowSymlinks MultiViews
        AllowOverride None
        Order allow,deny
        Allow from all
    </Directory>
</IfModule>

 

when I start apache I get

Apache/1.3.33 (Win32) Rivet running...

 

and using the example hello.rvt

<?
puts "Hello World"
?>

 

but I get the following error in the browser:

 

 

Rivet ErrorScript failed!

---

can not find channel named "stdout"
    while executing
"puts <PRE>"
    (procedure "::Rivet::handle_error" line 5)
    invoked from within
"::Rivet::handle_error"

 

I have modified my environment based on a thread I saw on the dev mailing list, so the path to tcl\bin is in the system env

instead of the user env, but to no avail;

 

so I hope you can help - it looks a neat package, and I desperately want to try it!

 

thanks

Gavin
