Hello all.

I have a problem.
I have subdomain and want to include some SSI in the webpages, but it
doesn't seem to work

I have this:
    subdomain.domain.com

 that is actually stored in
    domain.com/subdomain/

If I try to run a SSI from an HTML file calling a script from the cgi-bin,
say
    subdomain.domain.com/index.shtml

I get an error message, saying something like:
   'Can't locate file path-to/domain.com/subdomain/cgi-bin/script.pl'

I have tried both ways:

    <!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/script.pl"-->
    <!--#exec cgi="/cgi-bin/script.pl"-->

and haven't worked. I'm using '/' before cgi-bin to send the command to the
root, but still get the same message

So, I decided to create a cgi-bin directory in 'domain.com/subdomain/' and
uploaded the script there.

Now. If I run the script as
   www.domain.com/subdomain/cgi-bin/script.pl

Everything runs fine
But if I run it as
     subdomain.domain.com/cgi-bin/script.pl
It doesn't work and sends a Permission denied message

This way I can run
    domain.com/subdomain/index.shtml

and get the correct answer. But I can't run
    subdomain.domain.com/index.shtml

Which is bad because my reason to have the subdomain is to get people there
instead of going through www.domain.com.


The only way I have found to make subdomain.domain.com/index.shtml to work
is to have a copy of script.pl in both directories:
domain.com/cgi-bin
domain.com/subdomain/cgi-bin

wich seems absurd to me. Specially if this script is supposed to wite to a
file in the same directory.

How can I make a SSI call work from a subdomain???
Am I missing something???
Can you help me???

Any comment will be appreciated.
