You can provide additional parameters, for example Linux users
|
|
|
|

Run "python2 setup.py build" to build.

(Fast)CGI web interface
|
|
|
|
|
-----------------------
|
2000-11-09 12:02:38 +00:00
|
|
|
The *cgi files are three CGI scripts which you can use to run LinkChecker
|
2000-07-15 14:14:16 +00:00
|
|
|
with a nice graphical web interface.
|
|
|
|
|
You can use and adjust the example HTML files in the lconline directory
|
|
|
|
|
to run the script.
|
2000-11-09 12:02:38 +00:00
|
|
|
1) Choose a CGI script. The simplest is lc.cgi and you need a web server
|
|
|
|
|
with CGI support.
|
2001-05-18 19:09:28 +00:00
|
|
|
The scripts lc.fcgi (I tested this a while ago) and lc.sz_fcgi
|
2000-11-09 12:02:38 +00:00
|
|
|
(untested) need a web server with FastCGI support.
|
|
|
|
|
2) Copy the script of your choice in the CGI directory.
|
|
|
|
|
3) Adjust the "action=..." parameter in lconline/lc_cgi.html
|
|
|
|
|
to point to your CGI script.
|
|
|
|
|
4) load the lconline/index.html file, enter an URL and klick on the
|
|
|
|
|
check button
|

|
|
|
5) If something goes wrong, check the following:
|
|
|
|
|
a) look in the error log of your web server
|
|
|
|
|
b) be sure that you have enabled CGI support in your web server
|
|
|
|
|
do this by running other CGI scripts from which you know that
|
|
|
|
|
they are working
|
|
|
|
|
c) try to run the lc.cgi script by hand
|
|
|
|
|
d) try the testit() function in the lc.cgi script
|
