RE: http configuration confusion. -- MIDRANGE-L

Your original example: http://rgt:8014/rgcgip/vendprof.pgm
Your new code: http://rgt:8014/rgcgip/redir?7

I don't know how you have it configured, but if it's the same, shouldn't that second one be http://rgt:8014/rgcgip/redir.pgm?7 ?

Ok, so I removed the <i> and </i> stopped and restarted the http server.

So I run OPENURL and the browser displays http://rgt:8014/rgcgip/redir?7 number changes after each time I run
This gives me the 404 page not found.

I haven't located the log files yet.

I know REDIR hasn't run as the last used date is blank, so for now I don't think I need the DSPLY.

When you set up the script alias - you took out the <i> and </i> right? And you restarted the instance of the HTTP server?

If you run http://rgt:8014/rgcgip/redir?12345 directly in the browser, does it appear to do anything?

stick a DSPLY in REDIR to see if it gets there. The message should appear in QSYSOPR.

Check the log files in the IFS whereever they are configured to be. Ours are in '/www/intranet1/logs'

The URL of the page not found page? Is it REDIR or is it the other?

Start a wireshark trace and see what you are sending and receiving directly

Due to the length restrictions of the STRPCCMD, I am looking at alternatives to serving URL from my I. I ran across this article from Scott Klement from 2007
http://www.iprodeveloper.com/article/rpg-programming/use-cgi-redirects-to-launch-long-urls-18117

I'm trying to get this working to see if this will work for our needs. However, I really don't know anything about HTTP configuration. It might as well be greek.

That said many years ago I did create a couple of CGIDEV2 programs that work. So I placed the ScriptAlias stuff in the same http instance at the very bottom.
I created the programs associated with this in the same library as my CGIDEV2 programs.

When I run my CGIDEV2 programs from the browser, I call http://rgt:8014/rgcgip/vendprof.pgm

SO in the openurl program I have this
QCMDEXC('STRPCCMD PCCMD(''rundll32 url,FileProtocolHandler '
+ 'http://rgt:8014/rgcgip/redir?' + %char(Key)
+ ''') PAUSE(*NO)' : 200);

When I run the OPENURL command I get page not found, but it doesn't appear to ever call the REDIR program.

I can provide the configuration file if needed. Maybe I need another http instance for this.

This is probably really simple, but I don't know what I'm doing wrong

Ideas?

Thanks

MIke
