LiveCode Server on CentOS 6?

2018-07-28 Thread Keith Clarke via use-livecode
Hi Folks, Is anyone running LS Server on CentOS 6? I notice that only version 7 is officially supported and not being a Linux expert, I’d like to know if this server OS would need to be upgraded before attempting anything with LC server on it. TIA Keith

Hi Steve First, a quick way to the stack or standalone folder is specialfolderpath(“resources”). Check that your folders permissions are ok. export snapshot from rect 0,0,100,100 of this card to url ("binfile:"("resources")&"/Pic.jpg") as JPEG See if this helps when using your put

Hi, Try using this syntax: export image "tImage" to file "/tempMedia/testimage.jpg" as JPEG I think you need binfile to read but not to write. Peter > On Jul 28, 2018, at 1:41 PM, Stephen MacLean via use-livecode > wrote: > > Hi All, > > Been a long time since I’ve done file work with LC,

It's just how file systems work. If the beginning character is / that means it starts at the root of the file system. Since you had already set the defaultfolder, and wanted to go relative to there, you would just specify the folder name/filename. Or as I said, pre-pend a dot. In fact, 2 dots

If you use the path /tempMedia that forces it to the root of the filesystem and if there isn't a folder /tempmedia, it'll fail. Either leave off the preceding slash, or prepend it with a . <--(a dot) which designates the current directory. On Sat, Jul 28, 2018 at 3:40 PM Peter Bogdanoff via

Thank you to all who replied! Adding the “.” solved the problem and the file saved where it was supposed to. Confusing, because you would think that setting the defaultFolder would allow you to specify the next sub folder like I did… and it’s not mentioned, that I saw, in the docs. Thanks

A little late to the respond on this but I’d send a HTTP HEAD request. You will get a 200 response back with no data if you have an http connection to the url you specify. You could use your own server to send the request to but it is common to use a well known service such as google to send
