$urlroot

When we search for a word say "cpg" from search results page, we are getting the following error.

Error
002 /search/us/$www_url/search/texis.exe/search/us: Can't open source file D:/apps/webinator/us/$www_url/search/texis.exe/search/us: No such file or directory

and the url looks like this.
http://www.mysite.com/search/texis.exe/ ... ?query=cpg

instead of something like this.

http://www.mysite.com/search/texis.exe/ ... g&x=9&y=13

Why is that string $www_url/search/texis.exe/search/us/ getting added.

Thanks

Did you make any modifications to the search script, like to the <FORM ACTION> URL? What type and version of web server are you running? Some older Netscape servers have been known to munge the CGI environment.

We did not make any modifications. Our web server is Netscape_enterprise 2.01.

Sounds like the CGI environment isn't being set up correctly by the web server. Open a tech support ticket at http://www.thunderstone.com/texis/site/ ... pport.html for help.

There's a CGI echo program at ftp://ftp.thunderstone.com/pub/doswin/echo.exe that may help diagnose the problem. Place it into your CGI scripts directory where texis.exe is. Then try your texis url but replace texis.exe with echo.exe:

http://www.mysite.com/search/echo.exe/s ... g&x=9&y=13
It should dump your CGI environment settings. You can post them here. Make the message private if you're worried about everyone seeing your webserver info.
