Hello everyone, When I try put the stacksInUse it comes up empty. Could there be something missing in y httpd.conf file (Mac OS X Mountain Lion)? The only two lines that I have added under Directory /Library/WebServer/Documents are AddHandler livecode-script .lc

If other things are working (puts, etc) then returning empty on that line means there are no stacks in use. Here is a stack you can test with. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/11957935/mytest.livecode It has 1 handler in the stack script, save it next to a test lc script. THe file is saved in 2.7 legacy

Hi Phil, Thanks, but no go. I put the stack on my desktop and used start using /Users/gregory/Desktop/ParetoServer (Legacy 2.7).livecode and from the name of the stack, you can see that I took Mike Bonner's advice and saved it in legacy format. Gregory On Wed, Aug 29, 2012, at 10:27

Is it possible that the web server user doesn't have read permissions on the stack file? Also, though its probably correct in your lc server script, it should be start using stack /path/to/stack not start using /path/to/stack On Wed, Aug 29, 2012 at 8:46 AM, Gregory Lypny

Gregory, You can't place files outside of the webserver root folder because that would be a security risk. You don't want web clients to access your private data from your home folder. Everything that the web server serves is inside the DOCUMENT_ROOT. cheers andre On Wed, Aug 29, 2012 at 12:19

Ok, my mistake, I can't get it to read from my desktop either so ignore this! Apparently it was reading the old file from the directory also (which is just plain weird.) I did create a folder in the server root called stackfiles, made sure the permissions were correct and was able to hit it from

Thanks Andre, Mike, and Phil, I have it straight now. Stacks go in the web server's root and only legacy stacks will work. Thank you also for your patience. My Internet coding abilities are primitive to say the least. If only the RunRev people would write documentation with some clarity.

Not to minimize your point, it is a valid one, but Runrev has limited resources, and if they really fully documented everything as well as we would like, and make it as easily accessible as we would like, we might not see a lot of development work getting done. As for the web root access,

And don't forget you can't use 5.5 version stacks with lc server so any stacks you use must be saved in legacy format or lc server can't load them. (file, save as, choose file type at the bottom of the window, 2.7) On Tue, Aug 28, 2012 at 3:21 PM, Phil Davis rev...@pdslabs.net wrote: Hi
