[CWB] CQPweb error: CWB registry dir seems not to exist or is not readable

[Uhrig, Peter]

Hi Simon,

Just to be sure: Have you checked whether /home/service is readable by user www-data? After all, it sounds as if it is user service's home directory.

Best wishes,
Peter

Betreff: [CWB] CQPweb error: CWB registry dir seems not to exist or is not readable

Hi,

after the problems with Docker I set up another ‚normal‘ Apache server with CQPweb, but I am still facing problems.

When I try to install a pre-indexed corpus in CQPweb, I get the following error:

> ERROR: CWB registry dir ``/home/service/cqpweb_files/registry'' seems not to exist, or is not readable!

However, the directory does exist and I think I set the right permissions:

> root at fussballlingui: /home/service/cqpweb_files/ [ 15:18:50 ] [0] # ls 
> -l total 0 drwxrwxrwx 1 www-data www-data 6 Sep 27 14:12 data 
> drwxrwxrwx 1 www-data www-data 0 Sep 27 11:59 databases drwxrwxrwx 1 
> www-data www-data 6 Sep 27 14:01 registry drwxrwxrwx 1 www-data 
> www-data 0 Sep 27 11:59 temp drwxrwxrwx 1 www-data www-data 0 Sep 27 
> 11:59 uploads

and

> root at fussballlingui: /home/service/cqpweb_files/registry/
> [ 15:19:08 ] [0] # ls -l
> total 4
> -rwxrwxrwx 1 www-data www-data 1587 Sep 27 14:13 nzz

with ‚nzz' being working registry file. When I call cqp from the command line, everything works fine.

Thanks in advance and best regards
Simon
