Problem's installing A4D

Rate this Message:
Aloha,
I'm having some trouble installing Active4D. I think I have everything installed properly but I can't get a page to load in the "web" directory in my structure file folder. If I put a file in the web_decoy folder, I can view ".html" files but not ".a4d" files. I get a "404 Not Found. The requested resource could not be found." If I try and go to a ".a4d" file. As far as I can tell, I can view all of the tables and method installed using 4d Insider, but when I use the Active4D menu (say session viewer) I installed into one of my forms, I get an error saying in so many words that the variables are of the wrong type (usually means not defined at all). Any ideas? Sadhaka Jivanandanatha |

Did you call A4D_DebugInit and A4D_Init in your startup sequence? Did you configure the web settings according to the documentation?

Aloha,
I got it to work. 2 things were wrong. 1. I forgot to do "Check both “Send Extended Characters Directly” and “Use 4DVAR Comments instead of Brackets”." as per the instruction manual. Once I did this, I was able to read a ".html" file from the "web" directory. 2. I goofed on the extension of my "default.a4d" file. Because of hidden extensions I had "default.a4d.html". Now it's working great. Thanks for your help. Sadhaka Jivanandanatha On Sep 4, 2004, at 9:54 AM, Aparajita Fishman wrote: >> I'm having some trouble installing Active4D.

Hi, I am new to a4d and this list I cannot yet create threads so this one seems the best place for me to post a message.
I am having an installation problem. I downloaded the latest demo and shell with all the plugins followed the installation directions for installing the shell into an existing applicatioon and while it will serve pages it does not interpet the active4d tags. Because the demo works I also tried coping the pages and plugins from the demo into my app figuring maybe I missed something but I still get the same results the a4d tags are just displayed as html. Here is an example of a call to http://localhost:8080 <% // $Id: index.a4d 1076 2006-06-19 02:28:01Z aparajita $ global($fbx_self) c_string(255; $fbx_self) $fbx_self := current file if (undefined($attributes)) $attributes := 0 end if fusebox.core(directory of(current path); $attributes) %> I traced the incoming calls in both the demo and my app as they came into the on web connection with the runtime explorer open. Both applications were running the a4d_console and a4d_housekeeper, but I a noticed two things First calls made the demo created the processes /index.a4d?action=root.main to handle the requests when "A4D Execute 4D request" was executed, my app creates one named /layouts/css/main.css Could this be a path problem? If, so where do I make the setting changes I have checked the ini and it is the same as the demo's. I have also confirmed that all the pages and directories are in the correct place in my app to support this call. Second when on web connection is invoked the second time my app has 0 bytes in the blob "A4D_Response" when "A4D Execute 4D request" was executed the second time. So next I created a data file from the shells' .4db and moved all the plugins/max4dx and webpages in, retested and got the same result. Can anyone please help point me in the right direction. I has spent many hours going over the installation configuration and I can't figure out what I have done wrong. I really, want to use this shell in an upcoming project and hopefully forever, but I just need a little help with this. Thank you in advance Joshua

I don't think it could be an os issue I am running the demo on the same machine and it works. Its the shell both installed in my app and running on its own that don't work. I have been through every method in the shell and compared it to its counter part in the demo and they are identical and I am calling them in the same way. I have also compared database prefs and they are also the same.

I need to see the directory structure of your app (starting from the
structure folder).

Thanks that did it. I didn't realize it was in there I must have left it in from an earlier trouble shooting session. Thank you for your time and patience.
