I could still use some advice. I know at least a couple people have
liburl working with old-style cgis. I'm running rev 3.5 and liburl 1.1.6.
This script receives and logs all paypal data but hangs, causing the
sandbox to think it couldn't find the server:
#!rev -ui
on startup
if $REQUEST_METHOD = "POST" then
start using stack "liburl"
read from stdin until empty
put it into tOrderData
LOG the time && "Received:" && tOrderData
put "cmd=_notify-validate&" before tOrderData -- required response
put "https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"; into tPPAddr
post tOrderData to tPPAddr
if the result <> "" then LOG "Post result:" && the result
put it into tResponse -- "VERIFIED" or "INVALID"
LOG "Response:" && it
stop using stack "liburl"
end if
end startup
on LOG pData
put "paypalLog.txt" into tFile
open file tFile for append
write pData &cr & cr to file tFile
close file tFile
end LOG
Five minutes after this is run, an error occurs but no specifics are
listed in the server log, only that there was no 500 html file (which is
how I know something went wrong.) I'm assuming it's a timeout.
Very old list messages suggest a socket may be left open. I tried both
of these:
set the httpHeaders to "Connection: close" -- before the post command
and:
repeat for each line s in the openSockets -- at the end of the script
try
close socket s
catch tErr
LOG tErr
end try
end repeat
Both of these cause an unspecified 500 server error. Nothing is logged.
I also tried changing the https: to plain http:, but I get a 302
redirect and the script stops.
I know liburl is in use because it's logging some things, like the 302
error, and I also logged the result after putting the stack in use; it
was always empty. I don't see a way to get liburl to log to a file, so I
don't know where it's going wrong.
