Help Needded : Web2pici problem ?

Krystof, 2008-04-28

Hello Picidae Community,

I have installed Debian 4.0 (R3 - the last version) with Web server (apache2), mysql and of course, fonts and all libraries wich are marked in your Wiki. All is done (mysql, apache, ...), in the end, my Picidae server tells me "configuration OK (in green)". Good, not ?

But when I launch a request with it, I got a big bad smiley like this ":-("
I found where it could it the problem. I think the problem is with "web2pici". Because when I try "web2pici http://www.picidae.net test". I got the message "command not found".

I don't know if web2pici is the problem. if you know the solution with this big bad smiley. I really don't see where is the problem.

Please help me ....

PS : sorry for my english and for my mistakes, I am French.

I try in ADMIN folder :
export DISPLAY=:10.0
OK, no problem

And, I try :
./web2pici http://www.picidae.net test

i got the message :
web2pici : cannot connect to X server

Have you got the same problem ? Have you got an idea ?

Dear Krystof

I suppose it's one of the follwing things:
- Your virtual screen (Xvfb) is not running.
- The DISPLAY variable is not set correctly.
- Your Xvfb was not started by the same user you use to make the web2pici test.

To solve this problems I wrote a howto on the trouble-shooting page in the developer area:
pici-server Linux trouble shooting page

I hope this to be useful.

Kind regards
Mathias
