How can I get my CGI script to run OUTSIDE the cgi-bin? |
| |
First of all you need to create .htaccess file in dir from which you want to use your CGI scripts(If you want that dir be mainwebsite_html you just need to add rules into file because it is already created. Do not erase your .htaccess file in your mainwebsite_html dir because that will brake your Frontpage Extensions configuration):
Options +FollowSymlinks
Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl
After that in editor create a simple test program:
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html";
print "This is a test";
After that save it under the name test.cgi change the attribute of that file to 755 that is, do a command chmod 755 test.cgi. Than go to http://www.yourdomain.com/test.cgi and check does your CGI script works.
