VB/Apache/CGI

[dhealy]

I'm trying to write a program in VB that will be used as a CGI program on the Apache HTTPD (Win32) server, on an NT Workstation (SP6)

I'm having a helluva time trying to get my program to work, it will run seperate from CGI, but as soon as the EXE is called from a webbrowser, the program won't execute (but it shows up as an active process on the server)

My question is, who has had experience writing successful VB CGI programs for Apache HTTPD? Could you send me your source files/project settings? I'm really having a tough time here, and I think if I could see how other successful programs are coded, I could figure out what I'm doing wrong!

PS For those who suggest I abandon CGI, I don't have a choice here, we have an old protocol that utilizes CGI calls

Hi,

I've coded lot's of CGI with VB on diffentent web servers and never had any problems (not on an Apache HTTPD, though). I use the module you can find at

http://pw1.netcom.com/~obrienk/.

I can also post an example, but it's really very simple with this module. Hope it works for you.

Good luck, Sunaj
