Re: [cobalt-users] [Raq3] Problems with Formmail Script



Can anyone help ?,

We are new to Cobalt RaQs and not quite savvy with their setup.

I have a fairly simple problem. We have several forms (Perl) which basically
just send an e-mail with user submitted details.

We have created a cgi directory (cgi-bin) in the root site directory, and
informed the script where to find PERL (the default cobalt dir). However the
server reports an error on submission of the form;

"The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable
to complete your request. "

This is prior to any validation checking on the forms fields.

Could this be to do with SendMail ? I can't find where it is in the
directory structure and think it needs to be defined in the form script -
any help much appreciated.

I look forward to hearing from someone.


Aiden,

You will find lots of good information about CGI scripts on RaQs here:
