Hi!, When i recently update to Apache 2.0.54 my front page extensions didnt work anymore. I follow
the instructions on https://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t-69541-highlight-frontpage.html , when the
apxs2 its working it gives me the follow error: Error: Config file /etc/apache2/apache2.conf not
found. The problem is that in the "new" apache2 version the config file its in /etc/apache2/httpd.conf.
Can i change that path on the apxs2?. Anyone makes FP extension works on Apache 2.0.54 ??
Thanx!

You might need to re-run the ./fp_install.sh script to tell it the location of your httpd.conf file. And/or you could create a symlink from the destination it's looking for to your actual httpd.conf file?

I'm also trying to install the frontpage extensions to apache 2.0.54. It installed succesfully after symlinking /etc/apache2/httpd.conf to /etc/apache2/apache2.conf. The admin page is accessible but when I submit something, fpadmcgi.exe starts downloading ... :? Does anyone has it running? I want to get it running with M$ ClickOnce.

Thanks

In my experience, you have to administer frontpage with IE, not firefox. Firefox always tries to download the cgi executable that runs the little gears spinning. Check it out in IE and I bet it works.

It's the same issue with IE. I think it's an apache configuration issue. Thanks anyway.

I'll stick with IIS for now.

Did you create the admin interface using fp_install.sh. Here is how your http.conf should look for your admin interface. This is assuming you used 1234 as the port that it listens on.

Code:
Listen 1234
<VirtualHost _default_:1234>
DocumentRoot /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/admin-exes
DirectoryIndex fpadmcgi.exe
<Directory /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/admin-exes/>
        AddHandler cgi-script .exe
        Options ExecCGI
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

I created the admin interface using fp_install.sh. It's also browsable.
I didn't edited httpd.conf but here's what fp_install.sh added:
Code:

Listen 1234
<VirtualHost _default_:1234>
DocumentRoot /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/admin-exes
DirectoryIndex fpadmcgi.exe
<Directory /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/admin-exes/>
        AddHandler cgi-script .exe
        Options ExecCGI
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

fpadmcgi.exe should be executed but it's downloaded when I press any submit button in the admin interface.
I also checked pfadmcgi.exe file permissions:
Code:

fs1200 version5.0 # ls -lh admin-exes/
total 5.0M
drwxr-xr-x  2 root root  144 Dec  6 08:36 _vti_pvt
-r-sr-sr-x  1 root root 5.0M Dec  6 08:36 fpadmcgi.exe

That's odd. Your config and permissions look just like mine. But, the download problem only happens to me in Firefox. Not IE. Crud. You might try posting a message and/or search on the RTR forums? This link should get you started if you haven't already been there:

I followed this solution: http://www.rtr.com/fp2002disc/_disc2/000009d3.htm

You have to add
Code:
AddType text/html .exe
to <Directory> in http.conf.

httpd.conf virtualhost would look like this:

Code:
Listen 1234
<VirtualHost _default_:1234>
DocumentRoot /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/admin-exes
DirectoryIndex fpadmcgi.exe
<Directory /usr/local/frontpage/version5.0/admin-exes/>
        AddType text/html .exe
        AddHandler cgi-script .exe
        Options ExecCGI
        AllowOverride All
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>


Now it works in IE and firefox.

WOAH! That rules! I'm glad you found the answer. I'll test in my setup now with Firefox.

Works like a charm. I love the forms, I responded to your thread trying to help you and you ended up helping me with a problem I wasn't even working on. :)
