Hi,

Imake now a new entry for this post...

I guess this is the place to ask. Sorry for the email to info...

You have made a very nice work with those scripts... putting them under
the gpl license is also very nice from you...
I've been trying to employ your guestbook 1.5 but I have a question and
maybe you can help me: I am not root on the localhost, so that I cannot
create a folder cgi-bin where to put the guestbook.pl like

www.localhost/cgi-bin/guestbook.pl

The only thing I can do is something like

www.localhost/mydirectory/cgi-bin/guestbook.pl

And this seems not to be working. The perl script is called but only in read mode even though I did a chmod uoga+rx guestbook.pl

The place to look at is

am I doing something wrong?

thanks,

Pau

I don't think you can just create a directory called cgi-bin. This is set up by the host. I think you need to find the path to the real cgi-bin. Who's your host? Are you a subdomain of some other domain?

Carbonize... any ideas?
