Re: [cobalt-users] CGI permission error 13



Try some of the following:


Absolute path:
/cgiwrapDir/cgiwrap/path to your file within doc root/file

(EXAMPLE: /cgiwrapDir/cgiwrap/cgi-bin/mail/mail.cgi)



URL path:
http://www.yourdomain.com/cgiwrapDir/cgiwrap/path_to_cgi/sript.pl

URL path (debugging dumped to screen):
http://www.yourdomain.com/cgiwrapDir/cgiwrapd/path_to_cgi/sript.pl

(NOTE: uses cgiwrapd - not cgiwrap to debug)



Other points:
Scripts can only be .pl or .cgi
Try not to use a cgi-bin (try user-cgi or something) as this can clash with
the RaQ's cgi-bin
Make sure the file is where your calling it from (giving correct path)
