Hi,

Like many people, I have been trying to develop a web admin 
interface for my users forum administrators.

>From searching the MHonArc archive most people seem to be
adding or removing messages directly from the live HTML.

I am trying a different approach whereby I edit the actual
mailboxes.  My problem is I can't call my rebuild script
from within a CGI script.

the CGI code is as follows:
>         # rebuild MHonArc
>         $ENV{PATH}='';
>         system("/data/www/bin/mkarchive");

The 'mkarchive' shell script is as follows:
>         #!/bin/sh
>         PATH=$PATH:/opt/mhonarc/bin
>         
>         # devpt forum dir
>         FORUMDIR=/data/www/devpt/docs/forum
>         
>         # Remove public forum
>         /usr/bin/rm $FORUMDIR/msg*.html
>         /usr/bin/rm $FORUMDIR/thread*.html
>         /usr/bin/rm $FORUMDIR/date.html
>         /usr/bin/rm $FORUMDIR/.mhonarc.db
>         
>         # Create devpt forum
>         mhonarc -rcfile $HOME/../devpt/mhonarc/mh_forumrc -nodoc -outdir $FORUMDIR 
>$HOME
>         /mail/mh_forum_live
>         

The 'mkarchive' script does get called as the forum gets
deleted. The problem lies when calling mhonarc.

TIA
