Forum OpenACS Q&A: Response to Windows Version of AOLServer

Collapse
Posted by John Holroyd on
Hi Mark, I have been trying on and off for 6 months to get a good stable version of AOL server to work on 2k, unsucessfully, the most recent try was to download Jamie Rasmussen's version of AOL server 4, but this leaves a huge amount of TCL and ADP editing in OACS nessasary to run the system. None of the versions of AOL server 3.x support file uploads and all need patches of various kinds some can be found @ the Aolserver site others from the acs-misc site, I was going to suggest you might even try looking at the open-nsd site, but it appears to be dead at the moment.
None of this is helped by the fact that Aolserver no longer support win32 versions in any way and bug reports are by and large ignored for this platform, they also removed all of the win32 specific code from their sources for AOL4.x making the jobs of those who choose to continue developing AOL server for win32 much harder.
