More OECGI woes…

I have moved a web-enabled OI app from a server to a PC. As far as I know I have set all the correct parameters in IIS and have the correct registry settings (I have basically copied the settings from the server).

When I call TRACE via a browser, I get the error 3 message. I am running the app with a named engine (ServerName=TEST) to allow debugging. If I run TRACE via IE, I get the error3. If I run OECGI.EXE directly from the CGI-BIN folder, the following appears in the engine monitor window:

"CALL RUN_OECGI_REQUEST"

So it appears that OECGI is communicating correctly with my named engine, but does not work via the browser (http://localhost/cgi-bin/oecgi.exe/trace).

Any suggestions?

Cheers, Richard

Have you checked the anonymous user to see that it has sufficent rights to allow connection to a running engine? When you double click on OECGI you are using the rights of the logged-in user, not those you will be using when IIS tries to execute your request.

I am using a 30 days trial version of Openinsight 7.0 with apache and I also get the same error. How do I check the anonymous user rights?

Apache will run as an anonymous user too.

You can change the name of this user in http.conf.

look for the "user" setting, change it to a user with sufficient rights.

There is also a utility called suexec that sets rights for each cgi-program. I am not sure it wokrs in the windows environment.

If you want to do proof of concept testing try the Sambar (http://www.sambar.com) or Xitami web servers. They are lightweight and easy to set up, can run in the security context of the logged in user.
