Frontpage 2002 Suse 10

[mphayesuk]

I have seen a couple of other threads around but no-one has come to an answer as far as I can see.

Can someone give me some pointers to installing frontpage 2002 extentions on my server. I have already got ISPConfig setup and running fully on Suse 10.

I.e. What files I need and what to do with them.

Thanks

You need the frontpage 2002 server extensions from Microsoft.

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

Microsoft provides some installation instructions in the installer tar.gz file.

Has anyone else done this... if so did you run into any problems.... any pointers you can suggest.

Thanks

I was going to follow this guide but ignore steps 3 and 4 as I have apache2 ... Can anyone see any problems with this guide... would you still have to do step 5 and re-compile and install if apache is already installed... run step 6 as is, but leave the rest out as ISPConfig would create the web sites with frontpage added in right??????

Any guidence on this would be much appreciated.

Thanks

On second thought I will be using the instructions that microsoft give in their frontpage release. As I am not at my server at the moment can someone tell me where apachectl will be if apache was installed in default locations... I am trying to get all the instructions together to save time later on.

So I should get the tar file and extract it to where???? should the install scripts be extracted to the same location????

Thanks

I think you should test-run the Frontpage installation on a test system before you break your real system...

I installed Frontpage 2 or 3 years ago, all I remember is it is a mess. I finally got it to work, but don't ask how...

Wait, I found some installation notes on my file server. Maybe they help you:

ok got so far through the install but I cant find apachectl file anywhere... I did a locate on the file and got back

T1-01:/ # locate apachectl
/usr/share/man/man8/apachectl2.8.gz
/usr/share/zsh/4.2.5/functions/_apachectl
T1-01:/ #

Which cant be right or is it..... I have tried

/usr/local but my search on the net said that it would be here under a folder called apache but thats not there either.....

Now I know its installed because I have got all the web pages working ect... through ISPConfig..... Any one have any ideas.

Thanks

You can have a look in your apache start script in /etc/init.d, the apachectl script must be listed inside.

If you have Apache2, it might be apache2ctl...
