Description:
We are having a problem with our style sheet uploading correctly via putty sftp through the C prompt. Please let me know the correct way to have this uploaded to our production server..
Basically, what we have been uploading is our exlibris-gpo01.css file. This should override the default exlibris.css style sheet, correct? We are also copying exlibris-gpo01.css to exlibris.css, so that they are the same, but still the change is not reflected. Is there anywhere else that needs to be altered, etc.? The server doesn't seem to be reflecting the changes, unless we are doing something incorrectly..
A specific example of this would be that we deleted a ".gif" file from the "www_f_eng/icon" directory and removed the coding in the .css file for it, but it still shows up in the OPAC. This type of change should not require that our server be stopped and restarted, correct? How is it still pulling a file that was not only removed from the css coding, but also deleted from the icon file?

Resolution:
You need to restart apache and web server after the change. $alephe_root/apache/htdocs has symbolic link for the path of all style sheet..
[Greg]ver 16 you need to do as user root.
cd /etc/init.d.
./exlibris start.
or.
./exlibris stop.
This script reads the information about the components to be started/stopped from the file /exlibris/startup/init.dat.
On Aleph server the script starts Aleph and Oracle, on the Web server, the script starts only Apache
