Search from dynamic pl-script dos not work on new version...

Hoek · 12-13-2004, 02:30 AM

I use a pearl-script like 'tree.pl' as feed for the phpdig-spider. The script is located in the cgi-bin directory from the site. In older phpdig=versions (<1.8.0) this works fine. In the latest update 1.8.5 I get the error result message:

HTTP/1.1 403 Forbidden - http://www.mysite.com/cgi-bin//
See http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec10.html for explanation.

I can I solve this problem?

That means that PhpDig is not allowed to do a directory listing of the cgi-bin directory. Chances are that that was happening before, but you just didn't see the output onscreen. In later versions, such output is printed to screen.

Hello Charter,

Thanks for the reply, but I think you are wrong... Please check http://www.helpdeskwater.nl/cgi-bin/phpdig.pl. In version 1.8.0 I use this as seed for the spider. Result is a nice dynamic page with all hyperlinks on it. When you let this link spidered with phpdig 1.8.0 with depth 1, you get a + for every link on this output page.

It just does'nt work with 1.8.5..... Is there some setting I missed? The script just calls the site tree within a template.

Hello Charter,

study on the config.php file again lerned me a new parameter:

define('LIMIT_TO_DIRECTORY',true);

Default is this value 'true'. I changed this to 'false' and the system works fine again!
