Help, Please.
I'm having a nightmare with one of my virtual sites. It used to be fine but I'm now getting cgi wrap errors.
I've tried using Putty with an SSh connection to chmod the file to 755 but is says operation not permitted. I then enabled telnet
back on and tried using telnet to run the same command but no go.
Please check me, I may be tired.
Log On with user name and password
cd /home/sites/site1/cgi (presuming the cgi bin is in root)
chmod 755 email.cgi
Yes/No?
I used to have the cgi bin in the web folder but then realise that anyone could view the contents of this folder, (so I put an
index.htm file in there to hide it temporarily) but now I have cgi folder in root of virtual site.
Any ideas why I cant get this script to run.
The same script email.cgi requires cgi-lib.pl which is also in the same folder, work fine on five other virtual sites, so I dont
know why this one doesn;t.
Any Ideas
Thanks
Justin
