I've fixed the link to Apache OpenOffice 4.1.1.1 GA 2 on the front page of os2world.com,
that should solve some problems :)

SET PERL_LIBBATH=L:/Perl/lib;C:\perl\lib
SET PERLLIB_PREFIX=L:/Perl/lib;C:\perl\lib

note / and \

I also have the following in my config.sys but you should find out if you need them or not.

SET PERL_BADFREE=0
SET PERL_BADLANG=0
SET INFOPATH=C:\PERL\BOOK

and obviously your sh bin is different to mine, which is  SET PERL_SH_DIR=c:\bin

Check in any other files in the Perl directory for the correct path.
I normally just do a couple of search and replaces on the file contents.

ie, top of the contents in file c2ph,

#!L:/Perl/bin/perl
    eval 'exec L:/Perl/bin/perl -S $0 ${1+"$@"}'
   if $running_under_some_shell;
#

There was also another file from memory that you had to edit to change drive (and directory) references,
this might nolonger be correct but it rings a bell, I think its the main file that "SET PERLLIB_PREFIX=L:/Perl/lib;C:\perl\lib"
is suppost to fix but from experience I found something worked better by actually changing file contents
instead of relying on the SET PERLLIB_PREFIX statement.

I'm still using Perl v5.8.0

Hi Mike,

Sorry I bothered you folks.

It's no bother at all, its what a community is for.

Sometimes you need to bounce things in writing before the obvious hits you over the head, other times it saves you getting caught with the many undocumented things and gotchas.

So never be afraid to ask for help.

Ian, I have a few others I could send if you want them.

Here I am wondering why I don't have all these files, then I find libdvdcss*.zip files, I've been searching for dvdcss* when I should
have been searching for *dvdcss* under os2site.com...

So I have :-

 2/10/08  22:47     595064           0  libdvdcss-1.2.10.zip
28/02/13   9:24     611542          86  libdvdcss-1.2.13.zip
 7/04/03  17:08     225764           0  libdvdcss-1.2.6.zip
31/08/08  15:01     590872           0  libdvdcss-1.2.9.zip
 6/08/14  11:23     604960          85  libdvdcss-1.3.0.zip

and

21/01/03  18:32     135611           0  dvdcss.1.2.4.zip
 6/07/02  22:02      30690           0  dvdcss.zip
18/06/02  23:33      79170           0  dvdcss2.zip

some were in /sw/mmedia/dvd and others were in /sw/dev/lib

Feel free to send any you have and I'll figure out what I don't have, and update what I do have so that I have what I don't have.

Thanks

Hi Neil, you're failing due to the encryption. As I said, I have a dvdcss.dll that'll work with dvddao which I can send you. I have a coupe of email addresses for you including a gmail and a blondeguy. Which should I send it to?

ian at os2site dot com ';-)

I currently have :-

 6/08/14  11:23      36878         124  dvdcss.dll
 7/04/03  17:08      52653          49  dvdcss.dll_old
28/02/13   9:23     196967         124  dvdcss.dll_old_

so I'd be interested in trying the 2007 one as well.

With much thanks to Pete Norloff

  http://www.os2site.com/mirrors/os2bbs.com/

As always, I am happy to provide copies of content from os2site.com on a harddisk.
It will cost you the cost of the harddisk, and postage, there are a couple of copies out there already.

Smaller parts of the website can be provided on DVD/CD by request, once more at the cost of the media and postage.

Note that HD's sent to USA from Australia normally take 3-4 weeks.
HD's sent to Europe normally take 2-3 months, don't ask me why because I have no idea.

re the Token error message, I just went to os2world.com, ignored the login screen and the left, clicked on a forum post, edited a forum post as the forum always keeps me logged in, went back to the home page and noticed I'm now logged in via Joomla.

Hi Ivan,

Different lines with different providers and provider owned DSLAM's.

All back up properly now, the phone numbers were ok but someone cancelled my username at the provider, that's been put back and the static IP reapplied so all good again, I shouldn't complain as it could have taken a lot longer to sort out.

It was very precis at my end, about 2359Hrs and boom, DSLAM exchange connection ok but no session.
so midnight must be when account cancellations go through, when there is no customer service people around :)

Funny enough, os2site.com and my email is now offline.
Someone cancelled my broadband apparently, that will take some explaining from my providers.
No idea how long it will take to get it back.

Funny thing is my other phone line still has ADSL provisioned on it but its dynamic, and I cancelled that account over a month ago but here I am, getting out on that line :)

Broadband here is becoming a joke.

Not fixed, I just got the Invalid Token message again so clicked back on a bookmarked os2world.com URL.
Cant simply refresh even though the URL is in the box, assume a refresh still tries to reload something else.

I'm deleted my os2world.com cookies but the problem remains.

 Invalid Token <== so it wasnt just me :)
I just click on the URL box at the time and reload os2world from there after the token error and all is good, I have noticed when I had to relog in again this session I nolonger got the Token error message. Maybe someones fixed it.

I did mean to say something at the time about the login problems I had but its been a busy past week in Perth, now our visitors have left I can spend some time at home, and I though it might have something to do with my build of Firefox which is incredibly flaky (not Dave or the Bitwise build).

Hi All,

hobbes.nmsu.edu is offline while the server is checked, due to some errant PHP scripts being found in incoming (with jpg and log file extentions) that actually worked to allow remote access.

It''s back when it's back.
