The end user web interface needs some special settings in the web server environment. These are (taken from the Apache 2 configuration file, assuming OS4X webaccess is installed in "<code>/var/www/webaccess</code>"):

    <Directory "/var/www/webaccess">

Also make sure that the CGI module is loaded in Apache:

−
LoadModule cgi_module /usr/lib/apache2/modules/mod_cgi.so

The CGI handler must be actived in the Apache main config, too:
 
−
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

Directory configuration

The user running the web server must be able to read, execute and write the following directories:

Large file support

Uploading files bigger than 2GB is a matter of the used webserver (i.e. Apache). Most common distributions include an Apache binary which is compiled with LARGEFILE support (which enables the upload of such big files). Also, your Web browser must support this feature, so it's most common to use the latest version available.

Starting from Q3/2013, OS4X Webaccess offers a HTML5 file upload mechanism which supports files bigger than 2GB. Please configure your PHP backend to a maximum file upload and POST size of at least 128MB (which is a maximum single slice size of the divided file).

Direct job access

Starting with OS4X 2014-12-09, you can point a user to a specific job in OS4X Webaccess. This is done by a URL "GET" parameter, namely: 

job

A URL to OS4X Webaccess, pointing to job 18877 could be: 

http://os4x-server/webaccess/index.html?job=18877

If the logged in user is not allowed to view this job, nothing happens. If the user is allowed, the job will be the active tab in OS4X Webaccess after successful login.
