Running the Oracle HTTP Server on OpenVMS
D-26 Oracle9i Installation Guide Release 2 (9.2.0.2) for HP Alpha OpenVMS
Referencing Input
CGI scripts that reference input to the Oracle HTTP Server must refer to
APACHE$INPUT.
Executing CGI
On OpenVMS, CGI images execute within a DCL process . You cannot execute CGI
images directly.
Logicals for Debugging CGI Scripts
Use the following logicals to debug CGI scripts:
Logical Name: Description
APACHE$DEBUG_DCL_CGI: If defined, this system logical name enables
APACHE$VERIFY_DCL_CGI and APACHE$SHOW_CGI_SYMBOL.
APACHE$VERIFY_DCL_CGI: If defined, this system logical name provides
information for troubleshooting DCL command procedure CGIs by forcing a SET
VERIFY before executing any DCL CGI
. Enabled by APACHE$DEBUG_DCL_CGI.
APACHE$SHOW_CGI_SYMBOL: If defined, this system logical name provides
information for troubleshooting the CGI environment by dumping all of the
symbols and logicals (job/process) for a given CGI
. Enabled by
APACHE$DEBUG_DCL_CGI.
Displaying Graphics with CGI Command Procedures
To display a graphics file with a CGI command procedure, use the
APACHE$DCL_BIN
foreign symbol in the following format:
APACHE$DCL_BIN [-s bin-size ] bin-file
where:
-s: bin-size specifies the actual or approximate file size in bytes. Bin-size
is automatically determined if the image file is larger than 32768 K (default value).
If the image file is smaller than 32768 K, then you can provide an approximate (or
actual) size. This will boost performance.
bin-file: Specifies the file to be displayed.
For example:
$ SAY := WRITE SYS$OUTPUT
