If I have <FORM
METHOD=POST ACTION="" the error is The file
/var/www/html/cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi cannot be found
If I have <FORM
METHOD=POST ACTION="" the error is The file
/var/www/html/mycgi.cgi cannot be found
If I have <FORM
METHOD=POST ACTION="" the error is The file /cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi cannot be found
So how do I get it to look in /var/www/cgi-bin
I’ve put ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/
“/var/www/cgi-bin/” in the config file,
dosen’t this do it?
Thanks
Stephen

I think the answer may be that you have: <FORM METHOD=POST
ACTION="">
When called from the page that has the form on it... it is
looking for the mycgi.cgi file in: /var/www/html/cgi-bin
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Hello Mark.
Tried replacing
<Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin/”>
with
<Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin”>
Looking thro the Apache docs it should be
<Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin”>
And
The +ExecCGI as far as I can tell is not needed as there is
only one option within <Directory “/var/www/cgi-bin”> so
it’s the most specific one. But I did try it anyway!
I’ve been trying various things ;
I can http://localhost/cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi
and see the script run correctly
However, viewing the html file that invokes the script named
by ACTION gives the error message The file
/cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi cannot be found
The complete line is
<FORM METHOD=POST ACTION="">
I’ve tried putting a / infront of
the cgi-bin/mycgi.cgi by the way
Document_root=/var/www/html
Cgi-bin =/var/www/cgi-bin
Shebang line is ok, the script works from command line
Thanks for you help, I’ll happily try any other
suggestions
Stephen
