Hello,
I just installed livecode-server on a new machine (Linux Ubuntu Server 13.04). It works exactly like it did on my old server
But I can not get any information from the $_SERVER array (without any error but just blank). Do you please have any idea how to fix this ?
Thanks

Are you trying to access it via apache or as a command-line cgi?
Post an example of your code, as it may help us pinpoint the problem.

Hello Icouto,
Thanks for you reply. The server is Apache2 using Webmin. As I installed it long time ago on the old server, I followed the instruction provided in the help and located
here and
here.
For testing I used a script provided by
HyperActive Software.
Code: Select all
#!revolution
# This script loops over all the environment variables
# set by the server when it runs a CGI application printing out
# its name and value.
on startup
# loop over all of the global variables, getting name and value
repeat for each item i in the globals
put i && "=" && value(i) & return after buffer
end repeat
# write minimal set of HTTP headers to stdout
read from stdin until empty
put it after buffer
put "Content-Type: text/plain" & cr
put "Content-Length:" && the length of buffer & cr & cr
put buffer
end startup
The result is
Content-Type: text/plain
Content-Length: 12
$_SERVER =
And I even tried the simple
Code: Select all
<?lc
put ""
put "Test"
put $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR']
put $_SERVER['SERVER_ADDR']
put $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']
?>
The result is
Test
But all other parts of the server are working as expected (sessions, file open, delete, database connection, etc.)

Try :
Code: Select all
<?lc
put $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"]
?>
Double quote... not single.

It worked
Thanks a lot bangkok. I stupidly respected the sample provided in the Dictionary without thinking.
