Question

I have already searched the questions database but couldn't find something to fix my problem. After extracting twiki and following the suggestions for installation on Solaris, when i access the /twiki/bin/configure script from browser, only perl code is displayed. I used the ApacheConfigGenerator to generate the twiki.conf. I included this conf at the end of httpd.conf. I didn't specify anything in the "List of users allowed to view configure". Also, I made sure that SetHandler and Options directive are correctly set. I am using Solaris 10, twiki 4.2 and coolstack. Also, when i check the status of csk-http, the status is displayed as "maintenance". Do i have to use .htaccess in bin directory? If yes, what values do i have to specify for "DataDir", "DefaultUrlHost", "ScriptUrlPath", and "Administrators". I have tried a lot of things but nothing seems to have worked. Any suggestion/feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Answer

ALERT! If you answer a question - or someone answered one of your questions - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status selector is below the edit box.

Seeing the configure as Perl code is usually an indication that your twiki/bin directory is not CGI-enabled. This is done with the Options ExecCGI setting for that directory.

You can use the Apache config (remember to restart Apache after each change), or a local .htaccess (no Apache restart needed, but remember to check that the Apache config does not disallow .htaccess files in directories)
