Re: How to enforce re-creation of configuration files generated by CGIs?

Hello,

Some CGI scripts have a check where they do this automatically, when they are not being executed by apache.

That includes vpnmain.cgi and proxy.cgi.

Hello development folks,

while I do not think the changes related to Squid and Tor in Core Update 161 require it, I just wondered myself how to enforce recreation of the corresponding configuration files?

Both of them are generated by CGIs ({proxy,tor}.cgi), and faking a POST request on the command line seemed to be the wrong way to me. :-)

Am I missing something? Is there a better/ideal way for doing this?

Thanks for enlightening me, and best regards, Peter Müller (lacking coffee)
