Hi Chris, Dane & List,<br><br>Dane suggested trying to access the index.html file instead, and moving the featureserver folder to a standard web-accessible location, so I moved it into the root directory<br><br><a href="http://www.gisconsultancy.com/featureserver/">www.gisconsultancy.com/featureserver/</a><br>
<br>and now I can load the index.html file (before it was giving a Internal Server Error 500) but it still gives some errors when I try and save a shape.<br><br>When I try and access...<br><br><a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://example.com/yourdir/featureserver.cgi/scribble/all.atm" target="_blank">http://gisconsultancy.com/featureserver.cgi/scribble/all.atom</a><br>
<br>...it now asks me if I want to save the featureserver.cgi file? I think this is because it needs to create a scribble file?<br><br>Dane suggested checking that I've uploaded the cfg file, I have. Although I've modified it slightly so that it creates the 'scribble file' in the same directory as featureserver.cgi, at least that was my intention, cgf file contents below:<br>
