[cobalt-users] CGIIIIIIII!!!!

["Mark G. Castillo" <mark@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey Everyone,

First of all, thanks for all the previous help on this matter.  The initial
problem was that emails posted using a Form on the RaQ3 seemed to go nowhere
at all.  So, I checked my /home/log/httpd/error log, and I found CGI Wrapper
warnings to the effect that "cgi wrapper not found", etc.  So, I
double-checked my sendmail.cw file, where all appears correct.  I decided to
check the script itself, and the sendmail, referrers, and perl paths appear
to be correct.

My error log has some of these:

[Wed Aug  2 14:19:45 2000] [warn] [client 63.216.217.130] handler
"cgi-wrapper" not found for: /home/sites/home/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl

The browser window is showing me this:
CGIWrap encountered an error while attempting to execute this script:
Error Message: Permission denied
Error Number: 13
This message usually indicates there is a problem with the script itself.
Often this indicates either that the #! line of the script is incorrect, or
the script was uploaded in binary mode instead of ascii mode. Check to make
sure that the script does not have control-M's at the end of every line.
That will prevent it from executing. An easy fix that takes care of this
most of the time is to put '#!/.../perl --' instead of '#!/.../perl' on the
first line of the script.
If you are not the owner of this script, please forward this error and the
URL that caused it to the script owner. That is often the component in the
URL right after /cgiwrap/.

Permissions on the cgi-bin folder and the script itself appear to be correct
(775).  So what is the permission I am denied?  In general, cgi appears to
work, as my Search script works.
Could this be a problem in the sendmail.cw, sendmail.cf, or access.cw files?
I even checked the list at:
http://users.iol.it/hpstr/
And it looks like I'm doing everything right, so how come it comes out all
wrong?  I'm not kidding, I really need to get this to work.  Could this be a
sendmail problem, like maybe the whole program is corrupted?

  Any help would be great.
