Installation
Path to Perl
#!/usr/bin/perl
- The script uses the most common path to Perl however if the script doesn’t run for you, you may have to change the first line of each cgi and pm file.
Configuration
- The Configs.pm file contains several variables that will need editing before the script will run on your server.
- $scripturl = "http://www.yourdomain.com/joblist/admin/joblist.cgi";
The actual URL of the main Job List script file.
- $scriptdir = "/home/user/html/joblist/admin";
This is the full path to the directory containing the script files.
- $dbasedir = "/home/user/joblistdb";
Enter the database directory, this can be located outside of the publicly viewable web space.
- $htmlurl = "http://www.yourdomain.com/joblist";
Enter the URL to the HTML directory above.
- $htmldir = "/home/user/html/joblist";
This directory will contain the HTML files generated by the script.
Set this option to "yes" if other company’s jobs will be listed on your site. If you’d only like to list your own job positions then set this option to "no".
- Customise the templates in admin\templates\output to meet your needs. This will change the look and feel of the job listing pages displayed to surfers.
Uploading
Create a directory for the script on your server, which must have CGI access.
Upload all files in ASCII mode.
CHMOD .CGI and .PM files to 755.
CHMOD .TXT files to 666.
CHMOD your data directory specified in $dbasedir and all sub-directories to 777.
CHMOD the HTML directory specified in $htmldir to 777.
Running
Open the joblist.cgi file in your web-browser and enter the default password of "pass". Now you can change the password to suit you using the form at the bottom of the main menu. Once this is done you’re ready to start adding categories, and then the jobs themselves. First add a category and set a filename for it, this should be a single word with no spaces. You can now start adding jobs to this category. Once categories and jobs have been added you can use the "Rebuild HTML" button to create the HTML pages that hold the job listings. Once the pages are built you can view them by pointing your web-browser to the "cats" sub-directory under the main HTML directory.
