[hobbit] Availability Report not working

Thu Jan 3 15:16:39 CET 2008

I did check permissions, the directory is getting created correctly,
just nothing going inside of it, after running this:

Content-type: multipart/mixed;boundary=bbrep-29231-1199369692

--bbrep-29231-1199369692

It seems to have a trailing "--bbrep-29231-1199369692", which is the
directory name.

This smells like a permissions problem to me. Check that the webserver
userid/group has write permissions to the www/rep/ directory.

If that doesn't help, you can login/su so you have the user/group-ID of
your webserver, and then run the CGI by hand like this:

REQUEST_METHOD=GET \
SCRIPT_NAME=bb-rep.sh \
QUERY_STRING="start-mon=Jan&start-day=1&start-yr=2008&end-mon=1&end-day=
3&end-yr=2008&style=crit" \
~hobbit/cgi-bin/bb-rep.sh
