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.

ALERT! If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list 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)
