[Webcalendar] install woes

[David Leffler]

What this means is where are the directories as relative to the web's root
directory from the web browser side.  Some of the variables closer to the
top of the install.pl script refer to the hard folder path on the server
from the server side.

SO... all the scripts are installed into the $CGIDIR variable entry (from
the server side), the entries below (cgi...) are asking for the equivalent
web browser side location.

AND...the images are in the $IMAGEDIR variable entry (from the server side),
the (imagedirurl) is asking for the equivalent browser side location.

Here's my entries (note the directory name in the script is "wcal" and the
directory name in the web's root folder is "calendar":

    $CGIDIR="/home/hhbc/harrisonhills-www/cgi-bin/wcal";
    $IMAGEDIR="/home/hhbc/harrisonhills-www/calendar/images";
and
      'cginame'           => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal.pl', 
      'cgilink'           => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-link.pl',
      'cgiimport'         => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-import.pl',
      'cgiupload'         => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-upload.pl',
      'cgicss'            => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-css.pl',
      'cgimisc'           => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-misc.pl',
      'imgdirurl'        => '/calendar/images',

Hi,

I am installing webCal2.9.3 on a linux box.  I have modified install.pl 
for my environment and I ran the install with 'perl install.pl'.  I do 
not understand the following from the install script.  The directories 
do not get created. 


 # URLs of cgi, relative to /.  It is recommanded to use
      # short pathname for the main webcal script. I personally use /y/x
      # on my server. This requires some reconfiguration of your web server.
      #
      # cginame will be refered hundreds of time on each page webcal
      # generates, a byte saved here will translated to megabytes of
      # saved network traffic.
      #

      'cginame'           => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal.pl',
      'cgilink'           => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-link.pl',
      'cgiimport'         => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-import.pl',
      'cgiupload'         => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-upload.pl',
      'cgicss'            => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-css.pl',
      'cgimisc'           => '/cgi-bin/wcal/wcal-misc.pl',

      # how the icon is referenced. Please use short names if possible. I
      # personally use /i on my server. See the previous comment for a
      # reason.
      #
      'imgdirurl'        => '/wcal/images',


Apparently this will affect the performance so I would like to utilize 
this.....I think.  How do I implement this?

I have also modified the httpd.conf file to find my directories.

Thanks.
