Quixote demo problem

Hello,

I have installed the demo as described in the
docs.  I do get the "Hello World" page, but none
of the links work.

The code that generates the links looks like:

  
  • simple: A Python function that generates a very simple document.
  • error: A Python function that raises an exception.
  • publish_error: So, the href's are all simple relative paths. My web server returns 404 on all of them, and rightly so, it seems to me. I only copied two files to cgi-bin, and files like 'error' or 'publish_error' don't exist anywhere, as they are simply python functions that I gather are supposed to run when I request their names in the url of my browser. What is the magic that I am missing that will cause certain requests to run python code, rather than hunt for that file on the filesystem? Also, I never got the RewriteRule redirecting thing to work... I am guessing that this is not necessary for the demo to work. Thanks very much, Tobiah
