Subject:

Installation as CGI script does not work.

Hi, when I try to install Pod::POM::Web as a CGI script as described in its documentation (cmp. https://metacpan.org/pod/Pod::POM::Web#As-a-cgi-bin-script), it does not work as expected, since /cgi-bin/perldoc emits a HTML page with a frameset referencing … <frame name="tocFrame" src="toc"> <frame name="contentFrame" src="perl"> …, e. g. pointing to /cgi-bin/toc and /cgi-bin/perl, but these URLs do not exist. The frame sources should probably be "./toc" respectively "./perl", i. e. /cgi-bin/perldoc/toc and /cgi-bin/perldoc/perl. Workaround for now: Redirect /cgi-bin/perl /cgi-bin/perldoc/perl Redirect /cgi-bin/toc /cgi-bin/perldoc/toc Kind regards, Martin

Hi Martin, Thanks for the report. I agree it's a bug, but as a workaround , try to put a trailing slash in the initial URL (i.e. /cgi-bin/perldoc/); this should solve the problem. Cheers, Laurent Dami.

Thanks for the tip! Indeed, this is a good solution. So maybe you just have to change the URL in the POD. :-) Cheers, Martin -- ___________________________________________ _ Martin H.

Actually, this problem was already reported by Andrew Kirkpatrick (see https://github.com/damil/Pod-POM-Web/issues/1), but I had forgotten to release the fix. Now fixed in version 1.20.
