Ok... Now I know all about the permissions and my kareha files are setup like this :
"Wrong permissions on the .pl files. They should have 755 permissions. NOT 777, because that may cause some servers to refuse to run them."

But always the same issue:
>>962
What do ?

> What do ?

Speak proper English, for one.
Stop trying to run everything under cgi-bin.
Fix your clearly broken CSS paths.
Probably also learn how web servers work.

I use Heliohost, every perl script work but it give me an error:

No ADMIN_PASS defined in the configuration at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/CGI/Carp.pm line 314.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at config_defaults.pl line 133.
Compilation failed in require at kareha.pl line 13.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at kareha.pl line 13.

line 133 of config_defaults it's an "}"

>>975

And did you define an ADMIN_PASS?

in config.pl yes!

I changed password and now it says:
Can't locate wakautils.pl in @INC (@INC contains: . /usr/lib64/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5/5.8.8/x86_64-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8) at templates.pl line 3.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at templates.pl line 3.
Compilation failed in require at kareha.pl line 14.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at kareha.pl line 14.

It randomly works now. Thanks Guys and good luck.

>>974
I am sorry for my poor English...

I am going to put back by default the css directory, and I am going to post some configs (screenshot).

I would really like to use kareha, because there is little of French txtboard and to make something good.

>>980
Move that stuff out of cgi-bin, and in fact do not even have a cgi-bin.

You don't need to fiddle with probably 99% of config.pl, so yeah, leave the CSS_PATH etc. alone.

also, je m'en fiche si votre anglais c'est imparfait, mais d'ecrire comme "what do" vous ressemblez un /b/tard, et pas capable de configurer un textboard

>>981
When the script will work I would begin to configure Textboard, I have already set up textboard php. The problem it is the perl language, moreover my host loads this language only in the cgi-bin. That have to I make?

>>982
Probably a good idea to look for another host, cgi-bin is the enemy of a proper and functioning installation.

Sure you can't set it up with a .htaccess or something?

Still I: >>962 >>980
I have the same problem as this person and I didn't understand how he it fixed. >>681
I can't execute perl script in my www directory with the htaccess ... I really tried everything

>>984
Then get a better host.

>>985
This was the bettest french host...lol I'm going to open a dreamhost account! Thx for support all.

Wakaba
i turned on function stops Wakaba from renaming image files, but the cyrillic characters look really weird, like укр.jpg.

Can you help me make wakaba show cyrillic names correctly?

will anyone answer me?

>>987 use UTF-8?

>>989
i do use!
i set use encoding 'utf-8' in the beginning of Strings_en, but it does not help

>>990
Check your server's configuration. The files have to be served as UTF-8, and that is outside of Wakaba's realm. Specifically, the Content-Type header needs to have a charset=utf-8.

I can't understand how to use open proxy check feature. Can you point me where can I read about configuring wakaba to do it? Exactly what external proxy checking program should I use, this one http://www.corpit.ru/mjt/proxycheck.html ?

No ADMIN_PASS or NUKE_PASS defined in the configuration at /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.8/CGI/Carp.pm line 314.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at config_defaults.pl line 126.
Compilation failed in require at /var/www/mydomain/imageboard/wakaba.pl line 17.
BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at /var/www/mydomain/imageboard/wakaba.pl line 17.

Keep getting that error. Yes, I've defined ADMIN_PASS and NUKE_PASS in config.pl

>>993
have you really defined them, or are the lines where you think you defined them still commented out?

>>994

They're not commented out, nor is there whitespace at the start of the line.

>>993
Are you defined to all *.pl files 0755 chmod?

I configured config.pl my way, set all needed .pl files to executable and ran kareha.pl on perl. It just created and index.html page, nothing more. When I access it, it's a perfect page, but it's static, which means that if I try to post anything, it won't do anything... What have I done wrong?

>>997
It's supposed to create static pages and it will update when someone posts.

>>997
Just guessing: if you did perl kareha.pl or something similar, delete that html file and try again from a web browser.
