[cobalt-users] Raq550 CGI Problems

[Tony M <tony@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello cobalt-users,

  I wonder if anyone can shed some light on this problem I've just
  discovered.

  I recently enabled cgi access for a vsite on the server, setup a
  cgi-bin and chmod to 755.
  Site admin  then uploads a perl script (which I've looked at and can't see a problem with), sets chmod 755 and
  tries to call the script from a test page the result of which is a
  HTTP 405 - Resource not allowed error.
  So I chmod cgi-bin and script to 777, restart server and .... exactly the same.
  
  So I upload a test script from sunsolve, change it to owner admin and
  chmodd 755 as they say to, call the script from a web page and the
  server just sends the text of the script to the browser.

  I'll just add that as far as I remember, cgi has never worked on
  this Raq.

  It also appears to happen as above on all vsites so I think there is
  a config error somewhere, but I'm blowed if I can find it.


  Did I miss something somewhere? any help very much appreciated
