Update documentation describing how to enable PHP on HTTP server #9

Closed rchenatjpl closed 4 years ago

rchenatjpl commented 5 years ago

I followed the directions but could not get the widget to show for either:

http://sharks.jplsoftball.org/killme1.shtml is https://pds.nasa.gov/datasearch/subscription-service/SS-20191030.shtml moved directly to the other web site.
http://sharks.jplsoftball.org/killme2.shtml is a stripped down version that copies the code from github into its <head>.

Maybe the web server is missing something, but, if so, the directions should say what the requirements are.

@rchenatjpl did you register in advance? It won't work unless you register with the Google analytics. that being said, this has been tested and deployed several times so I'm not sure we need to build out the docs more thoroughly at this time.

rchenatjpl commented 5 years ago

I think there was a real problem, perhaps with versioning. I discussed this with Catherine, though I've forgotten the details. I did register. If I embedded the code straight off this page, nothing happened, but when I embedded the code taken from the source of a PDS web page like https://pds.nasa.gov/datasearch/subscription-service/SS-20191030.shtml, the widget showed.

@c-suh can you help me understand this here and make sure we properly document/fix the issue and/or make sure the right version is deployed?

c-suh commented 5 years ago

@jordanpadams Will get started today.

jordanpadams commented 5 years ago

@c-suh great! can you also reopen and rename this issue to something more useful for a changelog based upon the issue you recognize?

c-suh commented 5 years ago

@jordanpadams Will do; I'll reopen first then rename when I have an idea of what's causing the problem.

c-suh commented 5 years ago

@jordanpadams I followed the same links as @rchenatjpl to pull this code, installed it on our test site, but haven't been able to replicate any problem. Perhaps I need an environment more similar to http://sharks.jplsoftball.org/killme*.shtml where the installation first didn't work? Please advise on the next step.

if you cannot replicate, i imagine they do not have PHP enabled on the HTTP server. in which case, make sure we have that documented and tie to this issue, and update the title accordingly.

rchenatjpl commented 5 years ago

I can't replicate now either. Eh.
