[Chameleon] cwc2 instance

[Jacob Delfos]

Tim,

Check your php.ini file (typically in c:\windows\php.ini)
Look for a line that says:

session.save_path =

Make sure it points to the right place. Regarding the mapserver executables, they are not required for running the chameleon / CWC2 website.

regards,

Jacob

Subject: [Chameleon] cwc2 instance


Thus far I have successfully tested my Apache2, PHP 4.4.0, and Chameleon package.  But, I can't seem to get my cwc2 instance configured properly.  When I test the service (by typing the path to cwc2.php in a browser) I get the following error message - FATAL ERROR: Session save path () doesn't exist or is not writable.  Here are my current settings:

GENERAL PATH INFORMATION 
Apache RootDir:         C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs 
Chameleon:              C:\Program Files\Chameleon 
Chameleon.php           C:\Program Files\Chameleon\htdocs 
CWC2.php                C:\Program Files\Chameleon\cwc2\htdocs 

CHAMELEON.XML 
web_server_path /chameleon   (Apache alias to /chameleon/htdocs) 
wms_parse_file          C:/Program Files/Chameleon/htdocs/common/wmsparse/win32 
mapscript_module        php_mapscript_46.dll 
button_cache_path       c:/tmp/ms_tmp/buttons/ 
button_cache_web_path   /tmp/ms_tmp/buttons  (Apache alias to /tmp/ms_tmp/buttons)

symbol_file             C:/Program Files/chameleon/cwc2/etc/symbols.sym 



Questions: 

1) When I installed MapScript 4.6 and its associated dll's, there were some MapServer executables in the zip file but no instructions on what to do with them.  Are they necessary or extraneous?

2) Beyond viewing "localhost/chameleon/samples", are there additional tests I can perform to check my chameleon installation BEFORE configuring the CWC2 service instance?  I am trying to isolate my problems to the service instance.

Thanks, 
Tim
