cgi-bin = root (Read 613 times)

Dieter Werner Administrator Offline Dipl. Paranoiac ® Posts: 1162 Germany Gender:	Re: cgi-bin = root Reply #3 - 03/03/04 at 15:22:57 Try to create the directory 'cgi-bin' set chmod 755 for it create the subdirectory '/cgi-bin/eAuction161' and follow the install-instructions of the script. Btw: it's not a good idea to set all server-directories into the 'executable mode' (for security reasons).

It must be something incredibly simple but it's not working.

Creating a dir with cgi-bin didn't work but cgi_bin did.

This is the section of the config:
Code:

#-#############################################
# Config-Section-01
#-#############################################

# The name of your servers cgi-bin directory
   $config{'cgi_dir'}		= 'cgi_bin'; # Default for most servers
  
# The cgi-bin subdirectory where your eAuction.pl will be stored
   $config{'auction_dir'}	= 'eAuction161';
  
# The Path to a 'NON-WEBACCESSABLE' directory of your system
# Maybe you have to chmode it if you use your own setting

  $config{'get_path'}		  = 0; # Set this from 1 to 0 if you want to use your own setting  
  $config{'basepath'}		  = '/var/www/users/username/cgi_bin/eAuction161/auctiondata/';

# You need to assign either a mail program or
# a mail host so e-mails can be sent out.
# Configure your MAIL PROGRAM

  # $config{'get_mail'}		= 1; # Set this from 1 to 0 if you want to use your own setting  
  # $config{'mailprog'}		= '/Your/Path/To/sendmail'; # no additional options please
 
# or Configure your MAIL HOST (SMTP)
   $config{'mailhost'}	= 'smtp.domain.nl';   
  
# Set this from 0 to 1 if the script is running with a real Web-Server
   $config{'web_server'}	= 1;

Sorry to take up your time like this.

But thanks for the assistance.
