I'm trying to get the WebFocus client to work with the Apache webserver and I can't seem to figure out how to setup the scriptalias parameters. When I try to run the ibiweb.exe I get one of the following messages:

Unknown cgi alias
or
script not found or unable to stat: C:/ibi/client52/wfc/web/cgi/ibi-cgi

Thanks for your help.
Ron

in http.conf you must have a line

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ibi_cgi/ "/install_directory/ibi/client52/wfc/web/cgi/"

It is very important that it comes before the standard cgi entry

Also make sure that Everyone has execute athority

Ron,
We are having the exact same problem. In our installation we are using Apache Tomcat/5.5.7. Which version are you using?

Tom,
We are using Apache Tomcat 5.0.28 along with Apache server 2.0.52. I have gotten the cgi to work with Apache Web Server and I've gotten servlets to work with Tomcat, but I havn't been able to get the web server and the servlet engine to work together yet. I used the folowing script alias settings to get the cgi to work with the web server:

ScriptAlias /ibi_html/ "c:/ibi/WEBFOCUS52/ibi_html/"

ScriptAlias /approot/ "c:/ibi/apps/"

ScriptAlias /worp_resource/ "c:/ibi/WEBFOCUS52/worp/"

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ibi_cgi/ "c:/ibi/client52/wfc/web/cgi/"

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ "C:/Program Files/Apache Group/Apache2/cgi-bin/"

Hi,

Did you enable jk_module in httpd.conf we need to donwload mod_jk.so and put in the modules sub-directory.

Let me know if you need some tips with this.
