Hi,

Probably doing something wrong.
I have a folder with a folder spiderbasic and all then files generated. All works fine.
But when I move this all to the htdocs folder on local host. I get a blanc screen.
What is the normal procedure to upload a spiderbasic webapp? What files schould be included? Do I need to change things?

Thanks
Rudi

do you copy all files including
*.js
*.html
libs folder

all above are created using -Compiler -> Create APP - ,(also select [v] copy spiderbasic libraries_

I copied everything that was inside the folder it was developed in. It runs fine offline. Should the .Html be called Index.html? I am on Linux Ubuntu 22.04.

thats depend on http server configuration

what do you see when trying to open this website? whats the url ?

i think you should try to rename it to index.html is the the default config for practialyl all http servers to see what hapens

Renamed it to index.html nothing changed.
file:///opt/lampp/htdocs/rekenmachine/index.html this works
but when localhost is running
http://localhost/rekenmachine/index.html this gives me a blanc screen
I have other websites that are running in this way on localhost. Even a phpmyadmin. So localhost is working ok.
If I remove the folder 'spiderbasic' then I also have the blanc screen when I open from the file system.
Maybe there's some file / files missing to be able to run this on Localhost on Linux?

the fact that you are in linux, makes no difference in web world
its the http server that matters

does you script opens a external link ?
have you enable debugger? if not can you enable to see at least if debbuger window appears?

Tryed to create app again in a new folder and with the link to copy libraries from spiderbasic. Nothing got copied.
But when I put the files in the htdoc without the librarie, the result remains the same. It works on the file system but not when called on Localhost.
I checked the option to get the debugger. Nothing shown.
When I checked the src all was linked to the libraries on the filesystem (to spiderbasic itself) It uses the link you put in the create app. Maybe on Windows it copies the dependensies, not here on Linux?
I copied all manual and adjusted the src, still not working. Works when opening as html file; not with localhost.

the script index.html nothing special
