Kevin, I remember having similar problems when I started putting files on my server. A very helpful soul recommended that I use Filezilla to upload my files because the built-in FTP for the server was screwing up the line endings. I took the advice and it worked (I'm on Windows XP).
Make sure you save the irev file as text. Before uploading set the Transfer Type on Filezilla to ASCII. I assume that you can see an HTML file on your server? --- On Thu, 4/8/10, Kevin Stallibrass <[email protected]> wrote: > From: Kevin Stallibrass <[email protected]> > Subject: Re: Creating files on on-rev > To: [email protected] > Date: Thursday, April 8, 2010, 8:03 AM > Hi, > > Thanks for the suggestions everyone. > > Sarah - This command is used from an irev file located on > the server.
