I'm trying to point gw to a file containing a set of options (using the -m
switch), but no matter what directory I place the file in, even if I type
the full path/filename, gw can't find it, saying no such file or directory
exists.
Have I overlooked something?
Webinator seemed to install correctly and uses the default database
correctly on an Irix 6.4 O/S.
In a normal install, gw is made setuid to the web server userid you specify.
You need to make sure the option or list file you specify, and all directories
above it, are accessible by the web server userid you specified during install.
An "ls -l" of gw will look something like:
-rwsrwxr-x 1 www users 828708 Jan 15 15:57 gw

| This is the userid it will run as

This indicates setuid
Checked all files and directories and did have to chmod to -rwxr--r--.
All directories are drwxrwxrwx to me as user, but I can't see .master
directory in telnet session, so that's still unknown. (During install, when
asked for what web server runs as, I left blank as per option offered. Saw
no error messages.)
After chmod, wiped -d- and invoked new walk with
/PATH/gw -d- -m/PATH/OPTIONFILE "&URLFILE"
on command line without success.
What works is
/PATH/gw [options] "&/PATH/URLFILE"
Also, tried once to delete one URL from html and refs (per instructions),
removed URL from the "&URLFILE" and FTP'd. On invoking -rewalk, gw still
indexed that URL. As well, once included -rewalk="every 2 hours" and 2 1/2
hours later rewalk had not taken place.
