Thariama's questions

I am trying to get PSPELL 0.5.3 to work (i use Apache 2.2.12). I used the latest win32 installer and installed the latest german and english dictionaries from the GNU page.

Now when executing this test snippet

3    function testSpell($pspell_link) {
4       echo pspell_check($pspell_link, “testt”) ? 'OK' : 'NOT OK';
5    }
6    
7    $pspell_link = pspell_new('de');
8    testSpell($pspell_link);

to see if PSPELL is working correctly i get:

Warning: pspell_new() [function.pspell-new]: PSPELL couldn't open the dictionary. reason: The file "C:\Programme\Aspell\dict/de-only.rws" is not in the proper format. in ...\check.php on line 7

What can be done to get it into the right format so that i can use PSPELL?

I have Windows XP professional (SP3) running + XAMPP with Apache 2.2.12. Everything is properly installed and works fine with local drives.

The problem is that I want to access network drive "U:/" using alias defined in Apaches http.conf file:

Alias /w1/ "C:\workspace" // works
Alias /w2/ "U:\workspace" // does not work

Network drive U is hosted somewhere else and i cannot change any settings there. I know that apache is running under another user and therefor is not able to find the network drive U. What can i do to make it work as a windows service?

I already tried to use DocumentRoot/Alias with UNC using the windows service "Log on As" with my own account.

EDIT: What at least works is: Running apache over console using the parameter "-c" with an additional setting apllied after the httpd.conf:

httpd.exe -c "alias /e U:\"

One of our customers has problems using our CMS (hosted at a server on their intranet). The problem does only occur in IE8 and not in other Browsers like FF or Safari.

It looks as if from time to time (at around every 3rd click) some requests do not complete. I think it might be that the browser tries to load images(pngs, gifs) but gets stuck (the bottom status line of the browser sometimes claims to load images when nothin loads anymore).

Access in that intranet needs no proxy (and does not use one, they only use a proxy for external sites).

I have no clue about the reasons. Does that sound familiar? Any suggestions?

EDIT: Using IE8 over a ssh tunnel did not result in request beeing aborted or unresponsiv! It has to be something in the intranet then.
