[sword-devel] diatheke was su

[Don A. Elbourne Jr.]

Troy, (and Chris and all)

Thanks! I changed the buildshare value and I think it worked. I placed
diatheke in my /cgibin and ran it. It could not find mods.conf, so I moved
that file to my cgi-bin/ as well. That worked! If I run diatheke I get:

./diatheke
Diatheke command-line Bible utility and SWORD frontend Version 2.0 by Chris
Little
usage:
 ./diatheke -b [bible] [verse]         (verse lookup)
 ./diatheke -s [book] [word]           (word search)
 ./diatheke -d [dictionary] [word]     (dictionary lookup)
 ./diatheke -c [commentary] [verse]    (commentary lookup)

 To turn Strong's numbers on, add 'n' after the argument '-b'.
 Likewise, add 'f' after '-b' to turn footnotes on.
 Also supported, at the end of the command line are
 format (plain, html, gbf, rtf, or thml(default)) and max-verse (a number
arguments

Cool. But then if I try something like:

./diatheke kjv John 3:16

I get:

Segmentation fault (core dumped)


Maybe it is not finding my modules. How do I know where to put them? And how
do I tell diatheke where to look? Do I need to append all the *.conf files
into the mods.conf? Or do I put a mods.d directory in my /cgi-bin/ or along
side of it? I could probably try all night with different combinations, so I
figured I'd just ask instead.

in Christ,
