The Subject says it all really. I am trying to have the information send
from a simple html form to a text file or visitor_log.
This is my Code:
#!/media/Apache/ruby/bin/ruby
#!/usr/local/bin/ruby
require "cgi"
cgi = CGI.new()
fn = cgi.params['forename']
sn = cgi.params['surname']
em = cgi.params['email']
age = cgi.params['age']
gender = cgi.params['gender']
puts cgi.header("text/html")
puts "<html>"
puts "<head>"
puts "<title>Input request</title>"
puts "<body>"
puts "<p>Your name is #{fn} + #{sn}</p>"
puts "<p>Your general information:<br />"
puts "Age: #{age}<br/>"
puts "Gender: #{gender}<br />"
puts "Email Address: #{em}</p>"
puts "</body>"
puts "</html>"
open('media/Apache/apache2/logs/visitor_log', 'a') { |f|
f.puts forename
f.puts surname
f.puts email
f.puts age
f.puts gender
}
The information is displayed but then nothing actually happens within
the visitor_log file. The piece of code im using was originally found
here:http://www.ruby-forum.com/topic/202526
And this is from my error log:
[Wed Jan 09 19:13:33 2013] [error] [client 127.0.0.1]

But still getting a 500 internal Server error on the page. Also changed the permissions to 777 so that it can write to that file. Still nothing working yet, but thanks for finding that error :) Adam K

Well, this errors is pretty clear, isn't it? "No such file or directory
- media/Apache/apache2/logs/visitor_log (Errno::ENOENT)".

Just an update managed to fix the problem.
Had not defined the correct variable names!
Such a stupid mistake.
File.open('/media/Apache/apache2/logs/visitor_log', 'a') { |f|
f.puts fn
f.puts sn
f.puts em
f.puts age
f.puts gender
f.puts Time.new
}
