hi,
I followed the steps as u mentioned. I downloaded 2.8.2 version of
gnatsweb and i created the /etc/gnats-db.conf file as
/usr/local/share/gnats/gnats-db: dbase
Now i run the test as
make test USERNAME=anon PASSWORD=pw DATABASE=dbase
and this is the output
perl test.pl
Content-type: text/html
<H1>Software error:</H1>
<CODE>Can't call method "header" on an undefined value at
gnatsweb.pl line 2198.
</CODE>
<P>
For help, please send mail to this site's webmaster, giving this
error message
and the time and date of the error.
[Wed Jul 11 20:05:59 2001] test.pl: Can't call method "header" on an
undefined value at gnatsweb.pl line 2198.
connect...........................................FAIL
make: *** [test] Error 111
Kindly help me what could be the problem. The main problem what i
feel is connection refused error message is given. Why it is giving
so.
even wheni telnet like
telnet localhost 1529
the output is
connection refused. But this entry is there in the /etc/services file.
Help me,
Ramesh
