JaguarPC hasn't answered the question about dependencies directly, though they did pass on this: /lib/ld-linux.so.2: bad ELF interpreter: No such file or directory ..which suggests a dependency issue, I guess? But they've also said Correct, the initial error was due to using a 32bit compil

The other person is me. I had a terrible time after Jaguarpc moved me to a 64 bit machine, but using the old 3.5 engine and changing the extension from ".mt" to ". cgi" made it work again. I do remember Richard trying to get it to work and finding something wrong but I can't recall the bug re

It's the 500 internal server error. I'm pretty - er, very new to troubleshooting on a server. I don't have SSH access. Is there a way to get a list of the dependencies of the 32bit and 64bit engines that I could forward to JaguarPC? I know someone else has the 32bit engine working on JaguarPC,

script/engine broken when moved to 64bit server at JaguarPC

For several years I've had a system on JaguarPC involving a simple script that calls Livecode server, with script and server engine in the cgi-bin folder. Last weekend we were moved to 'sagitarius,' a 64bit server, and our system has broken. I tried uploading the 64bit version (from LiveCodeS

I looked into this a few years ago for a project - just converting images into SVG. It is a very difficult problem to do in LC, because the application has to trace out lines and convert them to vectors. This is not too bad for very simple black and white images. When the images involve complex

Not really . . . . What Richmond wants to do is as follows: Generate vector graphics from groups of images and/or fields in Livecode in such a way thst they can be handled exactly in the same way as the SVG widget (which Richmond is in love with). R. On 08/09/17 00:25, hh via use-livecode
