Description

Hi , my drupal 5.7 resides in a virtual servere at "/var/www/vhosts/miosito.it/drupal" .
I installed swish-e and the other helpers and they are at "/usr/local/bin/helper" (where helper=pdftotext, swish-e, ecc...).
they works on server, but when I click "save settings" at the settings page of the drupal module it gives me this error

swish_path does not exist or is not executable
catdoc_path does not exist or is not executable
xls2csv_path does not exist or is not executable
ppthtml_path does not exist or is not executable
pdftotext_path does not exist or is not executable
unrtf_path does not exist or is not executable

I think it is a path problem... but I have no idea about how to fix it.
Please, please help me........

Hi Ila,
Sounds like it's a permissions issue to me. My helpers and swish are 0755. Side note: Have you tried to run swish from the command line (as root)?

Also, once things are working, I find it very helpful to edit the common.conf file to show full debug:
IndexReport 4
ParserWarnLevel 4
