OpenVMS VAMP Board

OK, I'm *almost* there.

I have set the DECC$ logicals, I installed Java and got it working.
I got through a full install successfully ... until ... I wanted to view the website. It turned out lots of filenames had been mangled: multiple dots in all filenames had been replaced by underscores.

This ...

Hi,

Maybe not directly a VAMP-issue, but nonetheless one that I'm sure other people have already dealt with, so here it goes ...

I'm still working on replacing my Linux box completely.
One of the functions of my current Linux box is serving files via Samba to a mixture of Windows and Linux clients ...

Although it might be a bit off-topic for this Joomla thread, I have some follow-up questions about the SET PROCESS /PARSE_STYLE command.

I have read the help files for this command a few times, and as I interpret it, this command only works for the current process. So it seems that this is not ...

Hi,

I've been experimenting with Joomla on one of my Linux boxes, and it's great. I definitely am going to use this to create/maintain my sites.

However, when I FTP the files over to mt VMS System, I see that files with more than one dot in the filename get ^ in the filenames, and that doesn't ...

Hi Willem,

It's already done, try /admin on my homepage URL

Hi,

Does any of you know awstats, and has tried it on OpenVMS ?
On my -former- Linux box, I was running awstats and I liked it very much.

While searching the Internet, I came across some threads from 2004 on other BB's, but a lot of time has passed since then ....

OK, will try that as soon as the mrs. lets me on the computer, probably not until the weekend is over
(Monday evening or so)

Thanks, I appreciate that !

Oh boy, do I feel dumb :oops: !

You were right on the money again: FileZilla has an option "show all VMS file versions" and when this option is enabled, you obviously get to see all file versions, but you can delete files without any probleem too :wink: .

BTW I'm running the default FTP server ...

Hi,

One more thing that has been puzzling me in the past two weeks: deletion of files via an FTP client.

I currently use FileZilla as an FTP client towards my Alphaserver (VMS 8.2, ODS-5).

Whenever I try to delete a file on the Alpha, the FTP client shows no error but the file is not deleted !

I ...

Hi,

Thanks again, it works !

At first I didn't succeed, as I was trying to rename a file "hello.txt" or so to ".txt", and variations of that, but without success.

Then I simple tried "$CREATE .TXT" and it worked flawlessly.

I'm sooooo new to VMS

Hi,

Thanks, but, ... I didn't mean that part :-) (been there, done that with zlib)

What I meant was the installation of Joomla itself.
I might have missed it on their site, but I didn't see anything about installation on OpenVMS. Is it to be downloaded in source and then compiled or are there ...

Hi,

This seems like something I want/need for my websites too.
I could not see anything about OpenVMS specifically on the Joomla website, can you elaborate on what you have done specifically ?

Hi,

As I just wrote in another (my first) post on this forum, I am a complete newbie on OpenVMS, so forgive me my ignorance.

Yesterday night I tried the method described here, but it seemed that OpenVMS (8.2 with ODS-5) doesn't accept ".htaccess" as a filename ?
I know I can configure Apache to ...

Hi,

Please let me introduce myself first - I think it's the polite thing to do when joining a new BB. I am an ICT consultant specialized in designing and implementing Systems Management Solutions, with a strong emphasis on HP OpenView software. As such I have come across OpenVMS as a "to-be ...
