hey,
I downloaded a form processor program from the net and i installed it and put all the files where they are supposed to be. Now, when i put the form on my webpage, i have to give the full path of the perl program. The question is how do i give the full path of the program. Should i say "http://myip/root/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/form_processor.pl" or what? I tried like everything i can not seem to figure it out.

Check that the permissions for the 'form_processor.pl' are owned by <whoever is supposed to on them> (wwwrun/nogroup on my cgi-bin stuff)

Where did you put the pl script?

I put the pl file in the cgi-bin. its located in /root/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin and the permissions are ok. thanks for the reply.

why under /root?

what is your DocumentRoot setup in httpd.conf?

My document root is */usr/local/apache2/htdocs*
and the cgi-bin is in htdocs so i thouhgt i should just put
http://myip/cgi-bin/form_processor.pl but it does not work. Thanks for replying.
