Hello beginners-cgi, Connie,
1. Do you have the right to run CGI at your server ? Sure, I've got my own Apache-server. 2. Do you know if you are pointing your perl compiler at a right path( #!/usr/bin/perl) ? You can't just copy this from book. Different server may config it at different location.. The shebang is ok, check http://voelspriet2.nl/cgi-bin/perldiver.cgi So here we go again: This is the script: #!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type:text/html\n\n"; print "Show me the monkey"; #this line prints the sentence "Show me the monkey" It runs here: http://voelspriet2.nl/cgi-bin/comments.cgi You can see the error. The CHMOD is 755. Now if I edit the script and remove that stranges boxes (they weren't in the original text) everything goes fine, check http://voelspriet2.nl/cgi-bin/commentgood.cgi PS This is what another user has sent me: its a windows/unix difference.. windows uses carage+return linefeed like old typewriters to signal a line break... unix uses a single code that takes care of it.. those boxes should just be where unix put its return code... no worries.. just delete and line it back up.. -- Best regards, Henk mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
