Quit Command

Quit

Commits all databases to disk and quits the CGI.

To commit and close all databases at once, send a Quit command to WebCatalog. This is most often used when you have copied (for FTP-ed) new database files to the disk and you want WebCatalog to reload them all. Plugins cannot quit, so if you are using the plugin version of WebCatalog, it will just commit and close databases.

Example (normally you would put the following text into a .tpl file on your server and use a web browser to link to it):

http://www.yourserver.com/WebCatalog/xx.tpl?command=Quit

Try It!

There are no parameters to the Quit command.
