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
