APF Bridge Demo And Development Site

Hi,

I'm getting the following error when linking to the component.

No 'query' parameter passed to Joomla - form used?? OR store home page??
SEF is being used - attempt to retrieve 'REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING' server environment variable

Either you are on the store home page
OR no 'REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING' server environment variable is available SO APF_Bridge doesn't know what parameters to pass to APF
If you did not expect to view the 'store front' then Please report this error to Dean Marshall (the developer of APF_Bridge)
URL to retrieve: http://www.your-thai-recipe.com/component/option,com_apf_bridge/Itemid,43/
query string: ?
Curl Error 28: Operation timed out after 10 seconds with 0 bytes received

Do I have a seeting wrong somewhere ?>

Cheers

Hi,

This
url to retrieve:
http://www.your-thai-recipe.com/component/option,com_apf_bridge/Itemid,43/

Makes me suspect you haven't set the APF Bridge component up to correctly link out to the stand-alone APF perl .cgi script.

Have you installed MrRat's APF script? http://www.mrrat.com/aws/

What is the url to your stand-alone APF script?
What happens if you go to the APF script directly?

If you can provide a bit more information I am sure we can get you up and running.

Dean.

hi.. sorry for the delay

If i go to http://www.your-thai-recipe.com/cgi-bin/apf4/amazon_products_feed.cgi

I get

Internal Server Error

Please contact the server administrator and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.

However.. I can get to the config area no problems !

also.. when I add the URL as above in the component I get the following error on debug
