Hit Counter Shows Red X on All Virtual Servers on UNIX

This article was previously published under Q264885

SYMPTOMS

When you browse to a page with a FrontPage hit counter, a red x is displayed instead of the hit counter. The problem occurs on all virtual servers on a UNIX host.

CAUSE

Permissions are incorrect on /usr/local/frontpage/version4.0/exes/_vti_bin.

RESOLUTION

To resolve this problem, follow these steps:
  1. Change the directory to /usr/local/frontpage/version4.0.
  2. Type ./set_default_perms.sh
This resets the permissions on /usr/local/frontpage and below to the correct default settings.

MORE INFORMATION

The correct permissions for /usr/local/frontpage/version4.0/exes/_vti_bin are as follows.
dr-xr-xr-x    4 bin      bin          4096 May 23 08:56 .

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.

Thank you for using kbAlertz.com Feedback System.
