I had an odd occurance last week, that I brushed off as a fluke. But then it happened again just now.
I've got index.fwx in a particular folder. I could hit the file in the browser, index.fxp is created, and I get my output in the browser.
However, I just made another edit (of many) and my changes were not reflected in the browser, and index.fxp file was not regenerated.
I deleted index.fxp, and got this error in the browser:
There was an error during the
interpretation of your request |
Message: |
|
Script "index.fwx" is invalid, or non-existent |
index.fxp was not recreated.
So then, I renamed index.fwx to index_hiding.fwx . I hit the index page (index.fwx) in the browser again and got the web server's regular 404 File Not Found page...not an error from FoxWeb, but from Apache.
I copied index_hiding.fwx to index.fwx. Now I get the same FoxPro error again, and no index.fxp page was generated.
So then I copied some other .fxp file (guest_list.fxp) to index.fxp, and I get the correct output for the Guest List, not for the index page. I then edited index.fwx so it had a newer timestamp than the file now named index.fxp (newer by three months!), and it did not regenerate index.fxp ... I still got the Guest List.
Finally, I deleted index.fxp again, edited index.fwx, and hit the page. Again, I got no index.fxp, and I got the FoxWeb error cited above.
...
I then copied index.fwx to index2.fwx . When I hit that page in the browser, it successfully generated and served the output from index2.fxp. But still, the original index.fxp file will not generate.
Anyone have any ideas? I have not been able to make any sense of this. This is on a server which sees plenty of use from day to day.
Kind regards,
