Thank you John, Miguel and Peter. I actually used the setup.pl to run the whole thing that is why i didn't do the configuration taught by Dieter. For information to others. I corrected it by: editing /apache/conf/httpd.conf adding in the lines written in the installation guide by Dieter Alias /sql-legder/ /usr/local/sql-ledger/ <Directory /usr/local/sql-ledger> Add-Handler cgi-script.pl Options ExecCGI Includes FollowSymlinks </Directory>
<Directory /usr/local/sql-ledger/users> Options None </Directory> and i also change User nobody Group nobody which is also in the same file to User apache Group apache because apache is my HTTP server Restart web-server It might seem redundant to me now as it is exactly the same steps written by Dieter(now that i finally get it) but hope it will help other newbies who have the same problem Joan ----- Original Message ----- From: "Miguel Koren O'Brien de Lacy" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, September 23, 2002 8:07 PM Subject: Re: [SL] Setting the configuration > Joan; > > I have this in my httpd.conf file: > > Alias /sql-ledger/ /usr/local/sql-ledger/ > > which says that I installed Sql Ledger in /usr/local/sql-ledger and I > access it using: http://my.domain.com/sql-ledger/ > > Miguel > > P.S. if this mail appaears in html format it's only because when I reply > to it, Netscape changes it to html.... > > Joan Loh wrote: > > >Hi John, > > > >Pardon me, as I am a newbie to both linux and sql-ledger.
