I looked at the web cal demo a year or so ago and decided it would be
perfect for our K-12 school.
I've worked at trying to install it, off and on, ever since and now I've
confused myself so much I seem to be overlooking minor things.
I'm trying to implement it on a new SUSE (novell) box.
Here is what I've done.
1. Downloaded the tar and unzipped it to the /srv/www/ directory
2. Started editing the install.pl file
I don't understand how to configure this file.
Does the install create some of the directories such as webcal or
wcal (I'm comparing with the redhat 7.2 install.pl) or do I need to
rename the extracted webcal2.x.x directory to whatever I put here.
Do the .pl files need to be put into the cgi dir of /srv/www/ or do
they stay in the webcal2.x.x directory?
I also see the install.pl default looking for wcal.pl in the command
$CGINAME="$CGIDIR/wcal.pl but I don't see that file in my directory, I
see webcal.pl
Do I need to make those changes also?
I'm really frustrated because this kind of thing usually doesn't stump
me but I'm a newbie in this area. Any help would be appreciated.
