• 500 Server Errors.

  If you get one check the following:

  • Did you upload/ftp the file up in ASCII mode?

  • Is the path to Perl correct? (#!/usr/bin/perl)

  • Are there any syntax errors you made when editing aviman.cfg?

  • Are the files set to the right permissions?

  • Look in your apache error log file (ask your provider where you can download them/ tail -f /var/log/apache/error.log)

  • Are all Perl Modules installed and in the @INC path? Be aware that this path may be not the same for all users. You can change the @INC path in aviman.pl, in the BEGIN section.

         BEGIN{
         push @INC, ('.', '/sw/lib/perl5/5.8.6/darwin-thread-multi-2level', 
         '/sw/lib/perl5/5.8.6', '/sw/lib/perl5/darwin-thread-multi-2level', 
         '/sw/lib/perl5', '/sw/lib/perl5/darwin');
         }
    

  500 server errors are 99% of the time caused by: File uploaded in BINARY mode, or path to perl is wrong.

• Error including libraries. Make sure they exist, permissions are set properly, and paths are set correctly.

  See item 500 Server Errors above. Try on your local machine:

       	$ perl aviman.cfg
  

• Can't login (0.9pre2 and later) Well 0.9pre3 should tell you if something went wrong with installation. if not check:

  • Can you login once and then Login-page reloads? Then the sessions are not saved. Double check if sessions path in aviman_cgi.ini is correct and Apache has write access to this directory.

  • You can't login. Make sure that your password is correct (.htusers is readable and path in aviman_cgi.ini is correct

  Please report other problems.

• Bad colors in "Find Movie" results. Choose a default color (RGB) and a color difference for R, G and/or B. R,G and B must be small enough (dark enough) to add 8 times this color difference. For example

          $default_color = "#b0aabb"
          %color_difference = (R => 8, G => 0, B => 0)
  

  so R is b0 (156) -> 156 + 8 * 8 < 256 (ff)

• Search is too slow. Probably, you have forgotten to install String::Approx. Please install version 3.x or the latest 2.x version, those don't need a C-compiler.

  You can turn off fuzzy search in aviman.cfg:

          $use_no_fuzzy_for_actors_db = 1;
          $use_no_fuzzy_for_movie_db = 1;
