Hi VOS list, Hi all, wiki package is working finally!!! It seems i've done something rather silly in my virtuoso.ini file. I did:
[HTTPServer] ServerPort = 138.33.12.66:80 when it really should have just been: [HTTPServer] ServerPort = 80 to make virtuoso listen on port 80. not sure why this made the wiki package fail and everything else work, but that seems to be the case. sorry for the big waste of time!!! thanks for all your help! -kurt On Sat, Mar 21, 2009 at 9:57 AM, Kurt J <kur...@gmail.com> wrote: > whoops :-) > > here's the proper commands > > [root@cognac ~]# hostname > cognac.elec.qmul.ac.uk > [root@cognac ~]# dig +short 'hostname' > ;; connection timed out; no servers could be reached > [root@cognac ~]# dig +short -x $(dig +short `hostname`) > [root@cognac ~]# > > so actually that really doesn't look good. is there something to > change in host.conf? > >> This is very strange, can remote access be provided to the new empty >> database you created so we can see this problem first hand > ?
