Livecode Server Post

[Ralph DiMola]

Ahh....

Your test worked even when I ran it on my account. This confused me for a while but I finally found my problem.
Unless you reference the $_Post variable once the script hangs for a second and then returns nothing. Bug or feature?
I Commented out the last line "put $_POST["test"]" of your post.lc and it hangs for a moment and return nothing. But change it to "put $_POST["test"] into tVar" then the previous puts are returned(displayed) and no momentary hang.

Matthias, Thanks for your Help!! This one was a head scratcher for a 1/2 hour. I don't know how long it would have taken if you did not send me a script that worked. I was just doing some initial tests to get wired into LC server and was just testing $_Server["REQUEST_METHOD"] to examine the request method. Funny though, if the method is "get" then there is no requirement to touch the $_Get variable.

Hi Ralph,

i tried here now in the message box with the following lc server script <?lc put the version && the editiontype put "<br><br>"

put "this is the posted value for test:"
put "<br>"
put $_POST["test"]
?>


TIO On-Rev  Commercial Server 7.1
post "test=HELLO" To URL "https://canary.on-rev.com/post.lc <https://canary.on-rev.com/post.lc>"
put it

TIO On-Rev Community server 9.0.1
post "test=HELLO" To URL "https://canary.on-rev.com/post.lc9 <https://canary.on-rev.com/post.lc9>"
put it

HostM Professional Server 9.0.2
post "test=HELLO" To URL "https://mr.dermattes.de/post.lc <https://mr.dermattes.de/post.lc>"
put it


All 3 tests are successful and all expected information including the post value is displayed.


I will keep the post.lc files online for the next 2 days for you to test with my accounts.

Regards,

Matthias

I tested to see if the LC script is actually being executed. It is because I created a file but no display of "Put"s. If I change the method to "get" in the .html form the put in the same .lc is immediately displayed with no delay.
