Title: PHP & directory structure and Xwindows
Post by: paul on January 15, 2003, 07:41:03 PM

Hello,

I am trying to set up my SME server to run a PHP script called andromeda, which looks through a folder and returns a website showing all the MP3 files and directories contained within.

If the script is in the same directory as the files all is well however if I try and put the files in the ibays files directory and the script in the html directory I have problems. There is a preference within the script where the physical path to the data on the harddrive needs to be entered in order for this to work properly, how do I find this out??

Also is there a list of command line commands that the SME server will recognise or better still some kind of Xwindows UI that I can access, as the commands for listing directories I got from a books on Redhat 6 and Suse 7 don't appear to work

Sorry but complete newbie

Regards

Paul

SME is designed as a server, so it has no "user GUI". It is based on RH7, and I believe Midnight Commander ("mc") is installed by default as well.

Thanks bill

now the even more basic question : what do i need to type assuming i have just logged in as root in order to run Midnight commander is it literally # mc ??

Might be useful to say what those commands were, and how they "didn't work".

...and in brief, you just type "mc" (without the quotes).
