NET.DATA Error: Value for PATH_INFO in URL is not set or is not valid.

For archive reference, I got past the error by a valid Apache configuration for Net.Data. The Apache directives follow:

-----------------------------------------------
<Directory /QSYS.LIB/QHTTPSVR.LIB/>
Options +ExecCGI
Order Allow,Deny
Allow From all
</Directory>

ScriptAlias /db2www/ /QSYS.LIB/QHTTPSVR.LIB/DB2WWW.PGM/mydir/macro/
-----------------------------------------------

Note: the path of my macro directory is appended to the path to the DB2WWW.PGM, which seemed to be the trick. The Net.Data Administration guide has configuration directives for the classic HTTP server, but they weren't much help for Apache, and the correct configuration was hard for me to figure out. At least I can now move forward with a test of a Net.Data file upload.

The installation instructions and support for the FUPLOAD utility from www.easy400.net were excellent, and Giovanni Perotti deserves credit for that.

I still want to check out the Net.Data approach for a couple reasons. FUPLOAD limits uploaded files to 16 meg (in size). I hope Net.Data doesn't have that limitation. I'll see. And there's nothing to add to my deployment if I go with Net.Data. It's already on the box.
