[ REQ 5581]: WebOOGL on SUN?

[wingalls at espresso.rt.cs.boeing.com]

I am trying to run WebOOGL on a SUN SPARCstation IPX using Sun OS 4.2.
When I try to use your 'Pear and Dodecahedron' as WebOOGL, the objects
load but when I click on them with the right button, the URL for the
new scene is displayed in the strip at the bottom of the screen but
they are not accessed. I am operating through a proxy server. When I
try the VRML version of the file, I get nothing in the camaera window.
The one difference that I can see is that during the loading of the
WebOOGL version, I see three listings of gvgeturl.perl in the Geomview
Externel Modules window and there is only one during the loading of
VRML. I never see a reference to vrml2oogl, only weboogl.perl.

I have tried with both Netscape 1.1N and Mosaic 2.6 with the same
results. I have done everything on your troobleshooting page except the
      $mosaic_cmd = 'xmosaic' instead of $mosaic_cmd = 'Mosaic'
because the latter was not in any of the perl scripts. When I did add
the line to weboogl.perl, nothing worked except Geomview starting.

The only error messages I get are during the loading of the WebOOGL
version, there are 4 messages about /usr/lib/libc.so.1.7 being
outdated.

Any help you can give would be appriciated as I need to give a
demonstration of VRML using Suns in a week or so. We have Webspace
running on an SGI but I need Sun also and VRweb does not do WWWInlines
which I need.
