[cobalt-users] SSL FP Forms

[Mitch Obele <mitcho@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All - here's the sit...

RaQ4
I installed all the patches without errors.
Frontpage form works fine - will go to https confirmation page,
data loads to txt file, email is sent - all is well...
but only when that form is called from http. When form is called
from https, I get the following error...

  Cannot open "/usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf": no such file or folder.

Now, I read the archives and found this gem... is this my fix?
Seems dated - since I have applied all the patches. Or, is there
something amiss with my patching? Thanks for all your help!

Mitch

Forms can not be submitted securely unless the following file is
created:
  
  /usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf

If you need this functionality now, and can't wait for a RaQ 3 OS Update
package (I don't know a release date for the next update), please telnet
or ssh to your RaQ 3.  Authenticate as 'admin'.  Type "su -" and
re-enter your admin password to gain root access.

Cut and paste the following commands to the shell prompt:

echo "vti_encoding:SR|utf8-nl" > /usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf
echo "frontpageroot:/usr/local/frontpage/version4.0" \
 >>  /usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf
echo "serverconfig:/etc/httpd/conf/fpx.httpd.conf" \
 >>  /usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf
echo "authoring:enabled" \
 >>  /usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf
echo "servertype:apache" \
 >>  /usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf
echo "SMTPHost: 127.0.0.1" \
 >>  /usr/local/frontpage/we443.cnf
exit
echo " "

That's it! 





Should I do this? Anyone have any other ideas?
