I was just about to suggest the Abyss webserver when I read your post. I can confirm that after trying about 6 webservers to run ActiveVFP - a system to run the FoxPro language on the Web ALL other webservers crashed.either at start or after a few minutes, Abyss is running without a problem.

Re: Server Installation

What I like about this is that it lowers the technical knowledge for setting up a server and is a great starting point as you just need to figure out an SSH client. I have never really taken to Macs - although I do need to consider getting one in the near future. I have never liked Microsoft

Hi Bob, I keep the latest LC Server version in my Desktop. I also have a LC_SERVER folder, in which I put the old LC Server as soon as I download a new version. So, when a new LC Server version is released, I do the following: 1. Download latest LC Server on Desktop 2. Right-click on

Re: Server Installation

I think it is worth saying that if you are wanting to host your own server online - it is well worth the pain of learning how to setup everything yourself. A control panel or a setup script would be great (my personal preference would be a setup script) - you do still need some experience to run

Not sure i'm on the exact same version and setup of apache, but on a droplet I just set up, these are the steps I took to get it working. First I enabled actions a2enmod actions you need to do this as root, or have sudo privelages, with sudo it would be sudo a2enmod actions Also enable cgi..

Thanks that will be helpful. I'm trying to get to the point where I can use the database library that encrypts traffic to and from a mySQL server via a web page. Seems like it ought to be a fairly simple thing to do, but looks can be deceiving. Bob S > On Jun 16, 2017, at 15:38 , panagiotis

It should be something on the Apache config. On Monday I will look at the config we have at the office Linux machine that runs LC server and let you know if you are still interested. Panos On 16 Jun 2017 23:29, "Bob Sneidar via use-livecode" < use-livecode@lists.runrev.com> wrote: > Okay all

Re: Server Installation

Yeah, not so much. There is a section which talks about modules being installed, and a link which takes me to the Apache.org docs, which by the way says version 2.0 is no longer maintained, and for example the first module mod_cgi tells me what the module does, but gives me no way to

The Livecode Server 8.1.4 contains a PDF called LiveCodeNotes-8_1_4-server.pdf. Turns out it is NOT the PDF for server, but rather for the IDE. I am trying to get LC Server running under Linux. I've installed Apache2 (I think) and now am at an impasse. Bob S
