walking gw from other location

Post by Thunderstone »



Dear webinator,

I tried to walk commercial gw from other server as you wrote in =
instruction
"gw may reside, and you may do walks from elsewhere (as long as it is =
the
same CPU type and operating system), but you must get the resultant
database to the web server via ftp or some other means",

but it is not working!

How can I run gw from other PC with the same OS and CPU?
What means "the same CPU"?

thank you,
edmunds

You do not say how it is not working. You are able to use gw in the
same manner on any machine, and then copy the database. Which part
is not working, the walking or the subsequent searching?

For example you could not copy a database walked with Solaris for Intel
to a Sparc box, and expect it to run.


The type of central processor: pentium, sparc, mips, alpha

instruction
is the

It looks like:
------------------
D:\InetPub\scripts>gw -ddb http://www.mail.lv/
(It is cgi directory on other PC)
000 Could not connect to db
200 Database created
002 Can't open D:\web\search\webinator\_master\SYSOBJECTS.tbl for read: =
No such file or directory
(looks like that gw is trying to find sysobjects directory from 1.st PC, =
on which webinator is installed)
D:\InetPub\scripts>
-------------------------------------

I solved this problem by installing full webinator on second PC, but use =
only gw. But is is difficult, if i would like to run gw from other =
(service providers) PC.
