ProgrammingThis forum is for all programming questions.
The question does not have to be directly related to Linux and any language is fair game.

I have written a "hello"cgi program in c language, and successfully generate hello.cgi(gcc -o hello.cgi hello.c), and put this cgi file in the directory /var/www/html/cgi-bin, but why it can not run when i run on the http://hh/cigŁ_bin/hello.cig
my c program:
//
// File Name hello.c
//
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
int main(int argc, char* argv[],char *envp[] )
{
printf("Content-type: text/html\n\n");
printf("Hello___World");
}
It must be a problem with your webserver configuration. I copied and pasted your code exactly and compiled it the exact same way you did and it works fine on my server.
Are you writing that URL in this forum or is that what you're actually trying to go to? Because the URL you're showing has hello.cig instead of hello.cgi.
Well, you'll want to look at your httpd.conf file (probably in the /etc/apache directory) and make sure you have all the CGI stuff set up correctly in there. If you make any modifications make sure you restart httpd so the changes will take effect.
