Oh great and powerful ones,
Not sure which list to post this to, but since it deals most closely
with networking, I'll ask here.
I have an app that talks to another app via a socket connection, then
writes out a custom perl CGI in the current
Library/Webserver/CGI-Executables folder (custom server app, dedicated
stock G4 QuickSilver server, OSX 10.2.3). Yes, I know it's weird to be
writing CGIs directly from an app, but that's (oddly enough) part of
the spec. Until this morning, this has worked flawlessly, hundreds of
times a day, for about 4 months. Nothing odd has happened lately, the
server is shielded by a firewall, and is accessible only from another
Mac in the server room, which is accessible (for now) only from my
TiBook.
As of 9am this morning, it builds the file, but the file in cgi-bin
folder is *not* the same as the one I'm writing out to in the Finder.
Eh... what happened? I assumed that the Library/Webserver/CGI-Exec
folder redirected to the cgi-bin folder, but apparently I was wrong
about that. How do I 'update' the cgi folder? Is this documented
somewhere?
Spex:
G4 Quicksilver (not sure on mhz)
512 RAM
40gb hd
Stock 10.2.3
One custom app, everything else came installed.
Thanks,
-Chilton
