The first problem seems to be sorted now - at least, when I go to http://avalonit.net/cgi-bin/openguides/wiki.cgi?Chalice_Hill_House%2C_BA6_8B... I see a little Google map with a red pin, and clicking on the pin gives me a popup window with "Chalice Hill House, BA6 8BZ" in it.
I may have unwittingly corrected this when I did a 'dpkg-reconfigure openguides' this afternoon. Anyway, as you say -- it now works.
HOWEVER -- when I click on the 'Powered by Google' logo, the satellite map I get does NOT display the red pin. Is this the default behaviour? (Because if so, it's not much use to those trying to pin down an exact location.) Is there anything I can do to transfer the pin data over to the Google satellite map?
As for the second problem... have you edited the templates at all?
No. But thanks for pointing out the output of your version of Firefox's error console though; that wasn't the problem, but it put me onto where the problem lay. (Dodgy literal strings and invisible rubbish in one of the node files.) Plus the fact that 'Bed and Breakfast' doesn't work as a category -- it has to be 'Bed And Breakfast', in true wiki-style...
(My problem is I was educated in the 1940s and 50s -- and am therefore instinctively literate. Writing in CamelCaps doesn't come easy!)
It's worth noting that Milton Keynes and Boston are (as far as I know) both running on hacked versions of old versions of OpenGuides, rather than current code, so they may well behave differently to your install.
Noted.
My next problem is -- why can't I get the directory re-write to function? I put the directive as given in the documentation into my apache2.conf file (moodified to fit local conditions); Apache2 then finds the re-direction to the correct location, and goes there; but then Perl flatly refuses to run wiki.cgi, and posts a little box saying how do I want to read the file?
Any clues on why this may be so, anyone? I'd really rather re-direct than have a visible cgi-bin location in the address.
Again, thanks in advance for any help.
