| 398112 | 2005-10-21 07:08:00 | perl scripts must be in a directory that Apache thinks is "CGI" safe. check the config for apache i think its under scripts. if you are on *NIX.... put perl scripts in www/cgi-bin/* new URL will be www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/script.pl |

| 398113 | 2005-10-21 07:14:00 | i guess i will need to copy all associated files into the cgi-bin directory as well? | Dannz (1668) | ||
| 398114 | 2005-10-21 07:15:00 | i would think so, what files?? | robsonde (120) | ||
| 398115 | 2005-10-21 07:17:00 | Images etc | Dannz (1668) | ||
| 398116 | 2005-10-21 07:18:00 | Its working now thanks | Dannz (1668) | ||
| 398117 | 2005-10-21 07:25:00 | then if you want nice clean URL's then setup mod_rewrite to magic the URL's from one thing to another. EG: www.theanswerguy.co.nz is what a user puts in to the browser, the Mod_rewrite changes it to..... www.theanswerguy.co.nz to do this we have some goo line in the httpd.conf LoadModule rewrite_module /usr/lib/apache/modules/mod_rewrite.so RewriteEngine on RewriteRule ^/article/(.*)$ /cgi-bin/view?$1 [PT] |
