Re: Accessing an IFS file from the Browser

SCreen shots don't come through on this list. My customers do that all the
time too, let me state for the record that TEXT is better when you want
support/help.

And you should be able to copy and paste TEXT from the screen to an email
just as easy as an image. :)

I am going to do a disc brake conversion on one of my Beetles so I may be
unavailable for a while.

But in a nutshell, yes. You need a web server. But, if you use an
existing one you could probably put a map in to do what you want using a
directory container. And of course, stopping and restarting the HTTP
server tied to that config so the change takes place.

Here's a link to a simple Apache config that should help.

Here are two screen shots - the path from a WRKLNK and what I think you
are referring to when you talk about the HTTP config. Correct me if I am
wrong.

David,

What is the actual fully qualified path to the file on the IFS that you
want to view? That means please specify it with the leading slash, and

it

should be something you can use EDTF or WRKLNK with that same value to

view.

Then, show us your HTTP Config. There needs to be a link from one to the
other. Preferably something that masks the actual path to the file.

Jon - the message I get is The requested URL /root/www/wiki/index.php

with

two // in it’s place. Same message.

Rob - Through the HTTP Server Admin tool I can see that I have

WEBSERVER1,

an Apache server, running and listening at 192.168.9.6:80, the path

that

I have been using.
