PH Web Problems.

[Cindy Lomas]

Murray,

We have had success with Powerhouse Web, after much trial and error. We are
running VMS v7.1. We were unable to get the dispatcher to run in detached
mode but using the following commands online the dispatcher worked.

$ @SETPHWEB 120<version>
$ dispatcher -n <dispatcher name>

The only web server we had success with was Apache on W95. This would not
be a permanent choice, but we wanted to evaluate the product.

If you are interested I could send you some screen captures of how we set
up the Powerhouse Web Administrator. Location/path names were a little
tricky. I also had to change the .htm files to specify full path names.
This is a bug in the beta version. Different than the norm, the .htm files
must be located on the same machine as the .qkc files, not on the web
server machine.
