 |
|
Has anybody experienced getweb writing to the wrong folder?
We have ours set to the cgi-bin directory but for some reason it is writing to the wwwroot folder, that would be ok if I could get getweb to pull the .msg files from there.
This just started happening out of the blue.
Thanks in Advance,
Michael

Michael,
The path to the webgate.exe file is set in the Action= line of the webpage, so there are two questions/things to try:
1) Is there a copy of webgate.exe in your wwwroot? What happens if you rename it to webgate.old and submit a page?
2) What is the action= line actually set to in your web page? |

The action is set to:
"http://intranet/am_intranet/cgi-bin/webgate.exe"
No there is not a webgate.exe file in the wwwroot. the only thing that is in the wwwroot is the .msg and .ndx files.
I have renamed the .exe in the cgi-bin to .old and then ran the page and got an error so I know that is looking to that file. I also went into PGAdmin and disabled and then re-enabled the GetWeb to force a re-create of the .exe and I still get the same results.

Michael,
I must admit this is a little baffling. The file that webgate.exe creates should be created in the same directory as the webgate.exe file. This isn't the case for you, though, if I understand correctly? That even though the webgate.exe file is in (just for example) c:\inetpub\scripts\ , the actual file being output by webgate.exe is in c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ ? |

Unfortunately (for me) you are correct. :)
I have restarted IIS to clear the cache but maybe I need to bounce the server to clear the RAM?
The reason I have not bounced the server is because it is a mission critical server and I just haven't made the arrangements yet.

| Well, either that or you could set the CGI-Data path to the c:\inetpub\wwwroot\ directory. All the CGI-Data path does is to tell PageGate where to look for the files that the webgate.exe file outputs. |
