A redirect does not requre or allow a content-type line or any html.
When you say you can see the 302 and location *in the webpage*,
that makes me think that somehow your cgi is doing more than just
puts(1,"Status: 302\nLocation: http://whatever.com")
That's all that's needed. (be sure to put a space after the colons)

8. Re: cgi
I think i know what the problem is (but not sure yet)
Try more along the lines of this:
puts(1,"Content-Type: text/html\r\n")
puts(1,"Location: http://www.google.com/\r\n\r\n")

Kat, if I am interpreting that link correctly, it appears that the webserver
is sending the html file directly to the browser, rather than treating it
as an executable script file needing to be parsed by Euphoria. You
may need to set permissions on the file to executable, or you may
need to configure the webserver to treat files not inside the cgi-bin
directory as executable.

11. Re: cgi
It looks like that the program is not being executed, but rather the
program
is returned AS the file. Make sure that its in cgi-bin, that it is +x
(executable bit on).
Also i noticed that you just put "#!exu" for the top line of the script.
This is fine if exu is in the path. Otherwise, you MUST put the full path
of the exu binary in the script! BTW, if exu is in the current directory,
you must put "./", the current directoy is NOT part of the path in Unix,
unlike DOS/Windows (for security reasons I believe).
Finally, make sure the script is in Unix-text file format (LF), and not
DOS (CRLF) format.

I can't change anything, i can't even delete subdirs i made while testing.

I did. I tried moving exu to the folder, and i tried moving the Eu program to
the
cgi-bin dir where exu can execute. Same results.
> Finally, make sure the script is in Unix-text file format (LF), and not

I have tried \n, \r, \rn ,, same results. In Mirc, years ago, i did this:
alias sendheader {
; echo -s sendheader. $1
set %httpd.starttime. [ $+ [ $1 ] ] $ticks
sockwrite $1 HTTP/1.1 200 OK $crlf
sockwrite $1 Date: $date(dddd) $+ , $date(mmm) $date(d) $+ ,
$date(yyyy) $crlf
sockwrite $1 Server: Kat v2.0 on mIRC v5.51 $crlf
sockwrite $1 Content-Location: %httpd.dirlist. [ $+ [ $1 ] ] $crlf
sockwrite $1 Content-Type: text/html $crlf
sockwrite $1 $crlf
}
which still works to this day. But why doing the same easy writes in Eu on
*nix is impossible is just incredible to me. I'd have arranged the world so the
more modern and professional stuff is easier and quicker to run and build,
not worse. I have no clue STILL if a server on a nix shell will be theaded or
multitasking, so multiple requests can be handled at once, like mirc can do,
like a server using tcp.e can do on win95,,, or if i am taking a huge step back
to the much-maligned days of msdos by using a nix shell.
Basically, the problem is all the restrictions, the lack of docs, and that i
wrote the whole httpd in mirc, i didn't write Apache or *nix, and the
knowledge to use them outside "normal" is coveted and held only by the
priest(ess)es of the procedure.

It's at that url, Irv. That's what i am complaining of, it's not executing, even
if
it is in the cgi-bin with exu, or if i put exu into the public directory.
Redirecttest.html is diplayed as a page, not executed.

You can't do "chmod +x exu;chmod +x <scriptname>"?
If you cant, that this will be a very big problem. Talk to the person who
runs that site about fixing you permissions.

Did you change the top line from
"#!exu"
to
"#!./exu"
or
"#!/<full path to binary from root dir>/exu"

You misunderstand. The _file_ which is the script, not what is being
sent by the script. The _file_ needs to be Unix text file, else it will
NOT be recongized as a program but merely a file.

Its simple enough, but you must learn basic *nix first, or else the
learning curve increases greatly.

If you don't output "Status: 302\n", you certainly won't get a redirect.
The Content-Type line is unnecessary, but didn't cause any problem
when I added it.

Unkmar gave me his file, which i put in instead of mine, his works, mine
doesn't, same words, different url. They look identical otherwise in
Textpad
on my puter and in nano on the shell. <shrug>
Still, this redirect exposes the target url, and would expose my ip# to
the
user. Since i have no bandwidth, the major point of this is to hide my ip#
so i
cannot be DoS'd. The 2nd major point is to have me initiate the backside
connection to the shell, and not haveto open an incoming hole thru the
firewall here.
So i still need this:
1) program to accept incoming http from a browser on a nix shell, most
probably an freebsd flavor
2) a program for me to connect to, either user!pass@url http with
unlimited
ttl, or a ftp-like connection for me to get output from 3)
3) the part i write to munge output of 1) and have sent to me thru 2) This
part
will need to accept back what i send up to 2), and send back thru 1) to
the
user.

Making the cgi into a dos exe will work, not sure about how to get it
working as a win32 exe.
One thing that might be a problem, afaik most browsers don't support
BMPs. You'll probably need to save the images as GIFs, I think there
are some librarys for saving GIFs in the archives.

If the WWW-Server runs under WIN32 then a win32 exe runs fine.

As far as I read about one has to use GIFs or JPGs or PNGs.

Are you sure your program runs on the CGI server? It look like it runs
simply under your local CMD window in DOS mode. The first output line in
your CGI program has to be:
puts(1,"Content-Type: text/html\n\n")
Do you have this starting line?

Hi Cassidy,
is it absolutely clear that the program line:
puts(1,"Location: /resource.xxx\n\n")
is the first output of the program at the CGI SERVER SIDE called by the
client browser?
I append an example including an image. make a DIR 'test' under
'cgi-bin' on your CGI server, copy all files into the 'test' dir, run
'bindw test' to create en win32 executable and call from your browser:
'http://ServerName/cgi-bin/test/test.exe'
enjoy!
Have a nice day, Rolf
