Hello guys, Thank you again for your help chuck!
1) I just looked at the CGI servlet help that you sent. Actually I just have to uncomment the CGI servlet part in the web.xml and now at least i don't get an error, it's just a blank( which is probably the address problem, i.e a file pointing to a wrong directory) 2) I think you're right, just installing the fresh version from the website is better. How do i completely uninstall the apache( remove all the files) on ubuntu. I just started using ubuntu and not sure how it works. Thank you again for the help!
