Formail and CGI-bin file

I installed a form mail product called Formail several months
ago. I am using Dreamweaver 8 at work. I am creating a new form and
cannot find my cgi-bin file to modify the program. Does anybody
have any experience with this program in Dreamweaver? I have
earched for hours. The old form I created still works great but I
cannot trace it back to the cgi-bin file. I think I have been
working to long!!!!!

look inside your cgi-bin for a file named formmail.pl

What is the relationship between CGI-Executables and cgi-bin?

I am trying to get CGIs working locally on my Mac and am having difficulty understanding the relationship between CGI-Executables/ and cgi-bin/.
I have activated CGI in my httpd.conf file, and have the following perl test script: /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/test.cgi file, and have the file permissions set appropriatly
If I call the script from the actual url: http://127.0.0.1/CGI-Executables/test.cgi, it doesn't work. If I use: http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/test.cgi, it works fine.
Why cgi-bin and not CGI-Executables? What is the relationship between /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/ and cgi-bin?
And how do I get CGIs working in individual users' Sites/ file? Do all CGIs go in the /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables/ directory, or can each users' Site/ directory have it's own cgi-bin?
Ti Powerbook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Now I am having trouble getting CGI to work in the user directories. I have a perl script that works for 127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/test.cgi, but not for 127.0.0.1/~joe/cgi-bin/test.cgi.
My apache error log says:
[Tue Feb 14 08:14:23 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Options ExecCGI is off in this directory: /Users/joe/Sites/cgi-bin/first.cgi
Permissions for Library/WebServer/CGI-Exectuables/test.cgi and /Users/joe/Sites/cgi-bin/ are 777.
I think the problem is somewhere in my directory configs. Apache has so many, it's hard to know what's what.
Here's the first directory directives in httpd.conf:
# First, we configure the "default" to be a very restrictive set of
# permissions.
<Directory />
Options FollowSymLinks
AllowOverride Options
</Directory>
Farther down, there's this, which I added ExecCGI and index.cgi:
# Control access to UserDir directories. The following is an example
# for a site where these directories are restricted to read-only.
<Directory /Users/*/Sites>
AllowOverride FileInfo AuthConfig Limit
Options MultiViews Indexes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch Includes ExecCGI
DirectoryIndex index.html index.cgi
<Limit GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Limit>
<LimitExcept GET POST OPTIONS PROPFIND>
Order deny,allow
Deny from all
</LimitExcept>
</Directory>
Then down at the bottom of the file is something I suspect was added automatically when the user account was created:
Include /private/etc/httpd/users/*.conf
<Directory "/Users/joe/Sites/">
Options Indexes MultiViews Includes
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
To further confuse things, there is another file /etc/httpd/user/joe.conf that has additional user-directory directives:
<Directory "/Users/joe/Sites/">
Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
Is there something in all these directory configurations that is preventing the user from accessing cgi-bin? Can I add directives to an .htaccess file in the user directory.

Cgi-bin, form set-up

I want to create a registry on our website wherein a customer can setup his/her own registry page, type in what products he/she wants, their quantities, etc.
I understand that to do this one has first to have a "cgi-bin" file on their site to which all such forms point.
I currently cannot find any cgi-bin folder on our site. So, am I correct in stating I need one, and if so, how do I go about creating same?
Bill

First you mention cgi processing of scripts and then databases? There is no necessary connection between the two.
cgi form processing has largely been replaced by PHP or other server side languages. Again, there is no connection between PHP/ASP and server-side includes. You can have one without the other.
You will have to find out from your host what they offer. You will also need to determine what it is that you want to do. Two separate yet equally important questions.

Changing cgi-bin script

Hello all you experts out there!
I inherited a Dreamweaver website which allows the public to
ask for information to be sent out to them. Whilst it is very easy
to edit the html file and add a couple of new options to it, I
cannot find out how to get these new options to impact on the
cgi-bin file and filter through to the email that is set up.
Can anyone offer me some simple - very simple - help?
Thanks

What script is being used? Is it custom or something like
formmail.pl?

What's the meaning of the various .bin files used by SAM?

hey everyone,
I'm trying to understand why exactly there are so many .bin files used by the SAM, and how to compile each one of them.
My .rc file for the simulation contains:
load bin reset.bin 0xfff0000000
load bin q.bin 0xfff0010000
load bin openboot.bin 0xfff0080000
load bin nvram1 0x1f11000000
load bin 1c1t-md.bin 0x100000
load bin 1c1t-hv.bin 0x180000
load bin disk1.img 0x1f40000000
I don't understand why I have 3 different files - reset.bin, q.bin and openboot.bin when I would have expected only one bootfile.
I also don't know what's the meaning of the 1c1t-md.bin file (what md stands for).
If anyone could clear this subject for me, and also point me to the sources of each such file (if they exist in the project, and assume they do, at least for most of them), I'd be grateful.
Thanks,
Mintz Yuval

Hi,
Sorry I haven't replied sooner.
I get your project now and it sounds pretty cool.
Let me answer your last question first. The service processor resides a separate motherboard running independently of the N2 processor. The SP and N2 processor communicate via a I2C link which allows the SP to read and alter the state of the N2. The cpu, caches, NIU, memory, etc. are all connected by this link. Once the N2 is running, the SP and the N2 firmware may exchange messages via a mailbox protocol over the I2C.
nvram1.bin is a configuration file that is OBP specific. On HW, it would be a little ROM that obp reads during the boot. Since it's in memory, SAM doesn't make any assumptions about it. You can remove it or rework it to suit u-boot.
disk.img is the contents of a virtual disk which contains the root filesystem. This is essentially a ram disk which has been added to SAM's version of the hypervisor and/or obp. On HW, the firmware does not support this kind of virtual ram disk. For SAM, I'm pretty sure that obp is extended to create a device tree node for the virtual disk. Hypervisor may not know about the virtual disk.
Since disk.img is a UFS (or other Solaris-oriented) filesystem, you will probably want to replace it with a ext3 or Linux-oriented filesystem. Since Linux has direct kernel support for ramdisk, you might be able to build/configure the kernel with the location of the root filesystem image in memory. Or this might be a u-boot option.
As to 1c1t*.bin and reset.bin. On HW, the service processor is responsible for discovering all the devices and cpus on a system and writing the machine description file (e.g. 1c1t*.bin) and the reset firmware (e.g. reset.bin). These files are used during boot and various resets to initialize or reinitialize machines state for the cpus and all the i/o devices. Since SAM doesn't include a service processor, these files are static and created completely outside of SAM. The md*.bin files contents must match the configuration of cpu's in the sam.rc file -- firmware will fail if it tries to run code on a strand that is missing.
The md and reset.bin files are used during the boot process to set-up CMT registers and do a little bit of i/o device initialization. SAM doesn't support reset modes such as warm reset.
I hope this helps. Let me know if you need me to track down more details.
Cheers,
Stephen

T|X hot synched to Windows 7. Bluetooth hot sync deleted all info on Palm creating .bin file on PC.

I realize the subject line may be a bit wordy...
I tried installing Palm Desktop on Windows 7 PC with partial success. It appeared the Hot Sync Manager was operating, but the Palm Desktop would not load properly. I tried hot synching using Bluetooth. Hot sync deleted all information on Palm and created .bin file on PC.
Is it possible to retrieve info from .bin file and reinstall on Palm?

Hi and welcome to the HP Support Community.
I have never heard or read about Palm Desktop creating a .bin file from a botched Hotsync. If the Hotsync did not complete and the data is wiped from your handheld, I am not optimistic about restoring the data. Do you not have the data backed up via Hotsync on a different computer?

2950 bin duplicate bin files

I have 2 of the same bin files on a cataylst 2950 and need to get rid of one any idea how to do that without erasing all of flash? here is the dir:

Directory of flash:/

hi
Do revert how did u manage to put 2 files on the same name in the flash ?
coz once u try to upload 2 files on the same name it will ask you whether it can overwrite the existing file or not ?
did something got popped up like this ?
i feel the first file is without any extentions like .tar or .bin do revert whts the type of the file ?
i feel u mite have extracted the whole .tar file which automatically extracts all the html and the bin file onto the flash.
what i would suggest here is take necessary precautions before deleting the ios file coz that mite end up in deleting the functional ios too.
keep ur pc plugged on both fastethernet and console enable tftp in ur PC and let be on the same vlan as similar to your management vlan configured in ur switch if u dont have one do configure one management vlan.
before deleting take the backup of your functional ios in the tftp server.
Then delete the ios file using delete command i feel that should work though i havent tried deleting 2 files with the same name but of different file size.
or try giving delete flash:?
that will also give the files in the flash which can be deleted,you can check out the files which you want to delete from the flash.
once you get your ios files deleted do check out the size of the file that exisits in flash.if its the exact size of the functional ios to be there flash then u can leav it as it.
or else if u still want to make double sure delete both the ios files and ofcourse i feel u mite be aware of the size of the original/functional ios.
once the deletion is over upload the correct ios onto the flash and take a downtime in off peak hour and reboot it.
do check whether all your features are funtional after the reboot.

Where is /cgi-bin/ and who puts files in it?

One of my clients is trying to make a form work with /cgi-bin/mailto but I can't figure out:
1) Where is the global /cgi-bin/ supposed to be?
2) Who is responsible for putting files in it?
Thanks!

If you wan't to make the CGIs work server-wide, the default location is /Library/WebServer/CGI-Executables. The default web server setting already has a ScriptAlias directive pointing any address written as www.example.com/cgi-bin redirect to this directory. The global webmaster... the server administrator is responsible for all CGIs in this directory.
If you want to let each individual webmasters take care of their own CGIs, each website can override this by creating their own cgi directory within their own web directory. This directory can be named anything (e.g. "/scripts/"). Generic form-to-mail type CGIs are usually placed in the /Library/Web... directory for global usage, but if a script is only used by a single website, it's usually put inside their own web directory. You may want to tweak their httpd.conf file to assign this folder as the ScriptAlias target. When you do this, websites can execute the CGIs with the .cgi extension (i.e. pass the script on to whatever compiler/interpretor, like perl). Otherwise, you'll need to name each script like scriptname.pl or scriptname.c instead of scriptname.cgi.

File not found: /cgi-bin

Starting on May 2007, unidentified errors started occurring
on our coldfusion MX7 servers (Window2003) at approximately the
same time each night but not every night (...maybe 4 to 5 time a
week). These errors does not effect the performance our
applications on these servers or at least I don't think it does. No
schedule jobs or programs have been created that reference the cfm
template that this process is trying to locate. FYI, no users are
in these servers at this time. I'm going to assume it's something
running in the background and I'm not smart enough to figure it
out. Does anyone have an idea of what is going on?

In any case, you shouldn't be doing any includes in Application.cfc(side note: capital A). The application file is not meant for presenting CFM pages. Translate all such includes into logic involving, for example, cflocation.

PSD files sent over FTP given 1kb file size, archived, and have .bin appended to extension

I'm trying to deliver PSD files to someone over our server's FTP. If the FTP shared folder is accessed via a browser (like safari which is the main thing I've been testing on), the files in are listed as being only 1kb in size when each is approximately 60MB and all have had .bin appended to the .psd file extension. When the file is downloaded it's still 1kb and when opened it is associated with the archive utility which attempts to unarchive it and produces and identically named and extensioned file of 4kb size which cannot be opened by preview or text edit or photoshop.
Changing the extension does not help as suggested here http://forums.appleinsider.com/archive/index.php/t-25119.html . Also if the file is downloaded via 3rd party FTP software like cyber duck, though the file size is listed as 1kb, the correct size file is downloaded though still has the .bin extension. When this full sized .bin file is opened, archive utility instead of unarchiving attempts to archive it and produces a file roughly half the size which too cannot be opened. Speaking with apple care resulted in the suggestion that I use terminal command line to force the client to use binary mode when downloading the file which also downloads a file of correct size but with the .bin extension and that can not be opened.
Is this a known issue with PSD files? I've not come accross this before, the server is configured correctly and different file types are successfully downloading with no changes to size or extension and then opening as they should upon receipt at the client side.

Hi and thanks,
that was my next port of call but I stumbled across a more permanent fix. Mac OSX server automatically converts files sent over FTP to something called MacBinary on the fly and it seems this process doesn't agree with PSD files. Someone else encountered this problem back in 2003 and found this solution
http://forums.appleinsider.com/archive/index.php/t-25119.html
speaking to apple care they also sent a link for the official mac instructions for achieving the same thing here
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA20996
and here
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA20645?viewlocale=en_US
in the second explanation it's important to note for anyone attempting to follow this that if you're fixing the problem on MacOsX server rather than just MacOSX it isn't necessary to enable the root account as it is automatically enabled by default. Simply log out and log back in as root and use the same password as the first administrator account you set up when the server was first configured.

I am trying to open space in my macbook hard drive, so I deleted files and after emptying the trash bin the amount of Gigs didn't increase, why? Where can I go and delete those files?

Did you do a secure empty trash? SHIFT COMMAND DELETE, they will be over wriiten. Are you deleting docs as they aren't much space, videos,pictures,music use much more space.
You can move those fiels to an external "archive" drive to save them then delete them from your internal drive.

Difference between image file and .bin file

I want to know whats the difference between img and bin file and which is better

Functionally and generically, they are the same thing for devices like routers and switches and firewalls ...
Some "images" consist of more than one binary file ... like code for specific blades or modules (like a radio module on an AP).
In most cases, it's just a naming convention and they are the same.
For some systems, like computers, a binary file is an executable ... it gets loaded into some flavor of memory, usually RAM, and the instructions are executed. During the initial load, some code is typically executed to initialize the various sub-systems. All of this initialization takes time (think about booting a desktop or laptop computer from power-on to "ready-to-go").
One way to speed things up a little is to save the initialized environment as an "image" or snapshot of the "ready-to-go" state of the device.
Once the snapshot is saved, it can be loaded directly into a block of memory without the need of all of the initialization code or interpretation of the binary code. This tends to make things "boot" faster. As long as the system's hardware configuration hasn't changed since the snapshot / image was taken, it should be exactly as if the device was never turned off. Some desktop and laptops have a "hibernate" mode .. everything is powered down, but it boots up as fast as the snapshot image can be pushed into the memory from the hard drive.
If you have a specific example, post it up.
Good Luck
Scott

Can i change sqlplus and rman executible files rights in Oracle_home/bin

can i change sqlplus and rman executible files rights in Oracle_home/bin for security reasons, like following
chmod 750 sqlplus
chmod 750 rman
what will be the side effects of this

Note: My advise in based on Oracle Recomended files permissions ratherr the mentioned 750 file permission
To answer your question, I use examples like ensuring that oracle software owner (and related oinstall group) have discretory access to datafiles, controlfiles, redologs, hence using 640. Also that files like $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle (and related DBA group) are run by the software owner regardless of who executes it, hence using 6751. And others like trace files which contain sensitive hex dumps that you do not want others to see, hence using 640
So by "various processes and access permissions", I meant relateding to batch and users.
