    From paulie420@21:2/150 to All on Fri Sep 9 18:53:01 2022
    I have 20ForBeers.com:1339 as my www site for the bbS and am trying to get www-link downloading w0rking correctly. When I goto a link;

    http://20ForBeers.com:1339/dlreq?0f3039ab

    All I see is the number "1" in the upper-left corner of the browser screen. No downloads happen... am I doing something wrong??

    You have to create a "webroot" subdirectory containing configuration/templates (in a "cfg" subdirectory) and any desired web content (in a "www" subdirectory).

    Feel free to grab my modified copy (of the original http://www.mysticbbs.com/downloads/prealpha/dlreq.zip) from here:

    https://scbbs.nsupdate.info/files/webroot.tar.gz

    Also, you need to point to the "webroot" directory in Servers --> Configure Servers --> HTTP --> Root Path, e.g.:

    Root Path ³ /home/bbs/mystic/webroot/

    Hope this helps!

    However, I get an error when trying to download any file -- it says "File not in queue". I have notified g00r00 about this, but I haven't heard back on this just yet. I'm thinking of perhaps something related to Windows/Linux and path separators, but the logs don't tell... So please let me know if you manage to get everything working! =)

    Best regards

    Dude - Zip to the rescue again. Same as your help last time; I need to remember to RTFM. Derp. Thanks for your .TAR, and pointing me towards the salvation @ Mystic wiki.

    I already have a webroot folder, cause I serve up a small web page for 2o, but I'm sure I can get things going with your .TAR and the wiki. Thank you kindly.
