Using Flash Guest book with Lighttpd

Added by lcoulon almost 14 years ago

Hello,

I'm using Jalbum with Chameleon skin to create pictures albums .

This skin integrates a Flash guest book .

I'm hosting my albums with Lighttpd but the guest book won't work :
When i write a comment in the guest book : it is not stored and displayed even /guestbook folder has 777 rights

You can browse and test it from here : http://vue-du-ciel.dyndns.org/Sud-ouest/

Chameleon skin help notes say the following :

  • The Guest book will not work from the local disk, only from a server, because it stores it's entries through a server-based PHP scriptlet. So you might see the guest book — even can add a new entry, but it will not be saved.
  • To be able to add entries on a server the /guestbook folder need to be write-enabled.
    — Use CHMOD 775 command from the shell. Some servers might need 777 setting.
    — or change it with an FTP client (e.g. Right click + Properties + Owner/Group/Public - Read/Write/Execute: Yes).
    — or you can use the integrated cPanel or other server configuration tool to change premissions too.
    — For myJalbum.net you need to use and Secure FTP client, like WinSCP to set the correct folder permissions, 777.
  • You need to have permission to run PHP scripts on your web-server. It is usually enabled for paid web-services, but often not available with free web providers. Consult your server documentation/staff if this is enabled.

Can someone advice me regarding that issue ?

Here is attached my lighttpd.conf file.

Many thanks for your help,
