I am new to this bit and don't quite understand so could someone please
explain.
I have created a virtual site on my RaQ3 and uploaded the relevant files and
everything works fine.
Then I uploaded a cgi script 'formmail.cgi'
This I know has worked before and I have checked for errors and it's fine.
However when I do a form submission it says this:
CGIWrap encountered an error while attempting to execute this script:
Error Message: Permission denied
Error Number: 13
I had this error once before and I telnetted in and went to root user and
did a chown 'admin formmail.cgi'
This has had no effect whatsoever.
My questions are:
1) Why do I have to always go in thru telnet and do a chown this is going
to be quite annoying if I'm setting up a lot of virtual servers, plus I
don't want my clients to telnet in!!
2) Any ideas why it doesn't work at all
Thank you
