I hate CGI scripts
11/17/05 at 01:23:14

Hello
When I first used eAuction it was a windows server, I simply added the basepath, clicked the mouse and of it went.
I have two sites both with linux severs which I cant get eAuction to run on either.
The second one is a new one, thats the one I want to use. The architecture on the second one is differen from the first, the first is
-htdocs-
cgi-bin - aspnet_client
the second is
public_html - cgi-bin - www

I can get perldiver.cgi to run from inside the cgi-bin and from the eAuction161 folder inside the cgi-bin. But not eConfig161.pl.
All I get is the dredded "internal server error".
There must be a way of running eAuction from a non-windows server.
Does anyone have any idea,s. Angry

Thanks
Charlie

These two line confuse me a little - # - edit eConfig161.pl and save it # - save THIS file as eAuction.pl Is this saying save the eConfig.pl file as eAuction.pl Thanks Charlie
