Hello all, This is my first message to Lua-list and I hope to learn and later to share what I have lernt. I took a look in CGILua. It seems to be very intersting. I would like to try it, but my experience with web programming is null. For this reason, I write you to verify the steps I will follow. 1. (done) To install CGILua package - I used Luarocks. 2. (almost done) To choose an web server - I would like to use Mongoose because it does not require installation and this characteristic is desirable for me. 3. (to do) To configure the web server - This step requires more attention. In the configuration file, I did the following changes: original: # cgi_pattern **.cgi$|**.pl$|**.php$ Changed: cgi_pattern **.cgi$|**.pl$|**.php$|**.cgi$ original: # cgi_interpreter <value> Changed: cgi_interpreter c:\mongoose\cgilua.cgi I send you the whole file, but as I know very few about web servers, I couldn't see other changes. I got an error about something like WSAPI. How far am I to be successful? If want to run CGI, not FastCGI, are there many configurations to do? CGILua does seem to be hard to use, but the first time always present something difficulties. I thank for any contribution. Leopoldo
