Hi,
I'm trying to get into web dev, so I chose West Wind's Web Connection to start with. In my first attempts with WC I had some problems, that I credited to my ignorance regarding web technology, so I started studying and trying to learn all I could about this subject, and getting help from folks that deal with win2k and web support.
After all I decided to make a new attempt. To have things clear, I started a whole new installation in my PC, following all required steps (it seemed to me that I followed all steps, since I read all stuff that was at my reach in the last 1 1/2 months). So I made a new installation of
win2k , installed
IIS, downloaded Web
Connection 3.60 (again), and made a successfull installation of WC (no errors occurred at any moment). After all that I started Web Connection (VFP with WC) and selected
Web Connection > Web Connection Demo Server. The server started (a form showed up).
I started my browser (IE 5) and typed
http://localhost/wconnect/default.htm, and the
“Web Connection Feature Demos” page showed up. I selected the
”West Wind Message Board” link and the message board page showed up,
BUT at the VFP window I could check that an error occurred (message board app stopped responding, that's why I checked VFP's window):
Variable PARENTID is not found. Program error message. Bellow is the code at FUNCTION LoadMessage at VFP's editor window:
THIS.cUserId=wwThreads.UserId
THIS.cTo=wwThreads.To
THIS.cFromName=wwThreads.Fromname
THIS.cFromEmail=wwThreads.FromEmail
THIS.cThreadId=wwThreads.ThreadId
THIS.cMsgId=wwThreads.MsgId
THIS.cParentId=wwThreads.ParentId <<<<<<<< this line originated the error
THIS.cSubject=wwThreads.Subject
THIS.cMessage=wwThreads.Message
THIS.cAttachmt=wwThreads.Attachmt
THIS.cAttachnm=wwThreads.AttachNm
THIS.tTimeStamp=wwThreads.Timestamp
THIS.lNoFormat=wwThreads.NoFormat
THIS.cForum=wwThreads.Forum
I can't believe this is my fault, this time, but anyway what did I do wrong?
Any help (from now on) will be highly appreciated (and thanked!).
Regards,
Fernando
