How to Add a New CGI-Handler to Web Server?

I need to setup a website that will have pages coded in "LiveCode" (http://livecode.com/), an English-like scripting language, that can be used as an 'easier-to-program' replacement for PHP. It has its own interpreter ("livecode-server"), which is supposed to work under Apache as a cgi script. The idea is that the programmer writes web pages in LiveCode, composed of HTML with embedded LiveCode scripting, and these pages are saved using their own extension (".lc"). When a ".lc" page is requested, Apache should send the page for processing by the 'livecode-server' cgi.
The installation instructions for 'livecode-server' are quite simple. They state that it should be able to be easily installed via an '.htaccess' file, like this:
1) in the website's root directory, add a ".htaccess" file with the following directives:
Options ExecCGI
AddHandler livecode-script .lc
Action livecode-script /cgi-bin/livecode-server
2) put the 'livecode-server' executable inside your 'cgi-bin' folder
These instructions are obviously for users in a shared host environment, but I thought I should be able to do the same with OS X Web Server. But... where can I find a site's "cgi-bin" folder?
Any guidance is truly appreciated.

I tried using a custom httpd_livecode.conf file, and storing it in /Library/Server/Web/Config/apache2/other, but without success. To be totally honest, I'm not certain as to whether the configuration is not loading, or whether there is just something wrong with my syntax, and right now I just don't have the time to troubleshoot.
I did manage to get it working with the .htaccess file, which was quite easy, once I knew where to put the executable - which, as you mentioned, had to be in /Library/Server/Web/Data/CGI-Executables.
So, for future reference, the 'recipe' for adding a new cgi handler via .htaccess is:
place the cgi executable (usually a language parser or interpreter) into
/Library/Server/Web/Data/CGI-Executables
make sure the parser/interpreter (and any accompanying files or directories) are readable and executable (usually permissions should be set to '755')
in your site folder, add a .htaccess file with the following contents:
Options ExecCGI
AddHandler script-type .extensionType
Action script-type /cgi-bin/script-interpreter
In the case of LiveCode, my .htaccess file looks like this:
Options ExecCGI
AddHandler livecode-script .lc
Action livecode-script /cgi-bin/livecode-server
And the 'livecode-server' executable, as well as its accompanying files, were downloaded directly from the LiveCode website, and placed in /Library/Server/Web/Data/CGI-Executables.
last of all in Server.app, in the Advanced settings for your site, make sure you have enabled "Allow overrides using '.htaccess' files"

  • How to add a new Field to the WEB User Interface in CRM 2007

    Dear experts,
    I have been struggling to add a new field to the (CRM 2007) user interface from available fields for a specific view.
    I have maintained settings in BS__WD_CMPWBàRuntime Repository editoràComponentàViewàConfigurationàNew ConfigurationàAvailable FieldsàField Propertiesàand save.
    But the field is only appearing in display mode in the Web UI, which doesnu2019t allows any user input.
    I need your help to resolve the issue, I would be grateful if you could provide step-by-step documentation with screenshots or any other kind of documentation.
    Each suggestion will be appreciated.
    Best regards,
    Raghu ram.

    Hi Raghu Ram,
    I think you added a new custom field using some method like EEWB etc.,
    Then, you are adding the field onto the UI using UI Configuration Tool .. right ?
    These are the steps to diagnose:
    Method 1.Check the field properties in the model browser first.
      It should be showing 'C' i.e., CHANGEABLE. If it is showing as 'R', it is only READABLE.
      In such a case you need to find a BADI to change the field properties.
      For example, in Marketing Applications OBJ BADI has a method CHANGE FIELD PROPERTIES for this purpose.
    Method 2. Debug and check what is the value coming for RV_DISABLED parameter in the GET_I method in BSP_WD_CMPWB. This should be FALSE.
    Method 3. Check what are the field properties in the UI Configuration tool.
    Make sure it is not a display only field.

    Masood Imrani S.

    Can you please explain me about this. If possible with Screen Shorts.
    Thank You.
    B. Krishna

    If you want to add extra standard fields (like one you mentioned), you can use Component Workbench and Copy the configuration and create your own configuration and make the "Available Fields" appear there.
    If the standrd field is not available, you can Add Context Node using wizard and make it visible.
    If its a custom field (a new one); you will have to use EEWB and add the fields and then make it visible in the UI using Component Workbench.

    This itextsharp is third party control, for this issue, I recommended to consult the control provider directly, I think they can give more precise troubleshooting.

  • SQL Server Distributed Partitioning Views how to add a new node online

    We are using distributed partitioning views in SQL Server 2012 Enterprise Edition for scaling out our data across more than one servers. Now we faced to question how to add a new node (server) into the scale outed db servers system without sending the servers
    down, so our users will be able to use them during the process as well.
    For example we have 4 servers with scaled out data. When we add the new empty server, the CHECKINGs for the partitioning columns should be reorganized. But during the process the partitioning views are not working.
    The High Availability, Always On or Failover Cluster approaches seem are not resolve the problems.
    So my question is how to add new node online?
    KH

    Thank you Erland for the reply.
    Yes, it's sounds as possible solution but has some not resolvable nuance in it. Let's say we copied some data from Node5 to new added Node6. Let's assume in Node5 we had data in Table1 with partitioning column's values 100,101,102,103,104,105,106.  Now
    we want to copy part of the rows with partitioning column's values 103,104,105,106 from Node5.Table1 into Node6.Table1. With this Node5 will contain less data and will work more quickly (less IO, less CPU usage etc), and the rest data will be contained on
    Node6. But because of Node5 is already in use, the Node5.Table1 contains CHECK CONSTRAINT = ParttionColumn should be from 100 up to 106. This is check for Node5. The Distributed Partitioning Views are already using the CHECKs to identify what server should
    be used to get data from.
    Now when we copied part of the Node5.Table1 rows to Node6.Table1 the views are still using the 103-106 rows from Node5.Table1 because the CHECK points there. Then we include the newest Node6.Table1 in the distributed partitioning views. OK, but we should
    set some CHECK on new Node6.Table1 which will be used by views. We can't set intersecting checking like Node5 has CHECK 100-106 and Node6 has CHECK 103-106. We also can't edit Node5 check and set it 100-102 untill the data will be removed in it. But this means
    that the data will not be available during the execution. 
    So, any ideas ?

  • How to add a new character set encoding?

    Hello,
    can anybody please explain to me, how to add a new character set encoding to Mac OS Tiger?
    I have two Mac laptops, a new one with Snow Leopard and an older one with Tiger, and on the old one i cannot use or enable anywhere the "Russian (DOS)" character set encoding, which i need to be able to use some old text files.
    On the Snow Leopard, this encoding is present in the list of available encodings of TextWrangler, but not in TIger.
    If i have understood correctly, this is not a problem of TextWrangler, and the same encodings are available systemwide.
    So, the question is: how to add new encodings to Tiger (or to Mac OS in general)?
    Thanks.

    I think possibly that's in the Get Info window of Finder?
    I don't think either that or the input menu have any effect on available encoding choices. Adding languages to system prefs/international/languages can do that, but once you have added Russian there, I don't know of any way to add an additional Russian encoding (there are quite a number of them).

  • How to add a new filter in an existing web service method (BIWS - WEBI document)

    Hello Experts, we have 7 web service query's connected to a dashboard. Basically it is one WSDL URL and 7 Get Methods...Web service queries are BIWS (via WEBI document instance). There are filters setup for each of these web service methods.
    Recently there was a request to add 2 new fields to the webi document and also the 2 fields need to be included as filters in the 7 methods. I know there is an option to edit the method, but when i edit the method, i cannot find the 2 new fields in list to set as filters.Can anybody help me understand how to add filters to an existiing web service method? I do not want to delete the method and republish the block as web service.
    Any help will be great and points rewarded.
    Thank you
    Ann

    Hi Ann,
    The reason you are not able to see any of the new columns as a option to select in your web service block is because when you have published that block, they were not present. Add these two new objects in your block and publish it again. You will be prompted for duplication content. Select the highlighted block for duplicate and now you can see the new added objects in the filter option. Update and this will overwrite your published block. Please note, web services do appear to behave weirdly when used with dashboards so I request you to please try it in a separate test report first.
    Hope that helps.
    Regards,
    Tanisha

    How to add a new data element for existing table field(Primary key field)
    For this filed ther is no foreign key relation ships and even check table.
    while activating table it is giving message like below.
    can you help any one to solve this and wil steps to add new dataelement for existing primary key filed of a table.

    Thanks

    Hi,
    Easiest way is to download the table eg into an Excel table (if possible) or text table. Drop the table from the database. Build your table with the new key field. Build the database table again and fill it.
    You can do it also over the database into a new table. Drop the old one. Build the enhanced one and fill it. Afterwards drop your (temporary) table.
    Maybe there are other ways, but this works.
    Success,
