Re: [cobalt-users] Raq550: CGI programs do not seem to work

["John D. Gorena" <Support@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Brian,

I know that that the Owner and files permissions are correct because I
use tar to copy the cart for other sites on the Raq4 and it works
great.  Once I untar the file, I just change the ownership and it works
great on the Raq4.  For some reason, it is not working on the Raq550.

What can I do to verify cgi and anything else is working correctly. 
Please be precise with ideas - I am a cobalt crash test dummy.

John
