windows multipage survey

[Luca Notari]

Hi All,

I can't understand why, when in a single page survey, everything goes
well with mod_survey and microsoft windows. But, when in a multipage
survey (I've never used a single page survey for my surveys, normally
all surveys are multipage) , all seems ok except when page that contains
<sequence>; this is the error:


Document error

A part (intro.survey) produced an error (File does not exist :
intro.survey)


[DOCUMENT ERROR 42, A part produced an error] For some reason one of the
pages included in the multipage sequence produced a Document error.
Correct that error and try again.

obiouvsly , 'intro.survey' exists and no matter with path.

I think that there is some problems in finding absolute path under
windows, for representing the root system / the character : is needed
(c:\). When in a single page, no sequence instructions are requested,
and so, everything goes well.

May I discover what the sequence tag do in finding survey files? It's a
pity that can't test survey on a local windows machine, before publish..
:)

Many thanks

Luca

Funny that you mention it just now... :-) I fixed this problem in
subversion only a few days ago. Could I convince you to check out latest
svn and see if it works for you?

Otherwise I'll release a -pre2 tarball in a few days with this fix
included.

FYI, the changes so far that will be included in -pre2 are:

Pre-release 3.2.5-pre2
----------------------
* Removed all (I hope) references to the old home page address and
replaced them with http://www.modsurvey.org
* Implemented IP-based uniqueness checking in answers
* Multipage surveys now work under IndigoPerl in windows
* Added an up-to-date DTD for the 3.2.5 survey syntax (under webroot)
* Started to write valid XML headers in all example files so they
reference the new DTD via a correct URL.

Hi Joel,

If you're referring to pre-release 3.2.5 pre1, this is the version that
i'm using.

Also, but only for comprehensiveness, 2 little problems I've
experienced; for example :

A)
Survey.conf (windows.conf), line 93:

Perlrequire "c:\mod_survey\startup.pl" doesn't work
Perlrequire "c:\\mod_survey\\startup.pl" works (changed by me)
Perlrequire "c:/mod_survey/startup.pl" works (changed by me)

B) when started for the first time, c:\mod_survey\data\session doesn't
exist, I manually create it. I don't know if there is a permission
problem.

No, I'm referring to changes I've made after -pre1 and which are in
subversion and not released yet.

I'll take a look at the startup line too. Which package of perl and apache
are you using in windows? (I'm only testing with IndigoPerl so far)
