Title: CGI prob.
Post by: Master of Reality on 25 August 2002, 21:20

I got a cgi script (chat.cgi). When i run it from the console it says: "Must use GET or POST" but it doesnt work from the browser still.

ok fuck that. I got a worse problem. Any sub-directory i make (with permissions 755) the browser cant find any files in it. I get a 404 not found error. I know the path is correct. If i gfigure out whats wrong, then i will have a chatroom for fuckmicrosoft. But it is my counsel that we only use a chatroom for anything non-technical, so we dont loose any information that might be useful to other people (or so i dont have to archive it the information that might be useful).

fuck me, never fucking mind. I accidentally copied the entire /var/www/html dir to /var/www/html/html and didnt notice that i put the chat there. I fixed it, but there is still no chat.

I'll probably not be able to post much for a while as I only can use one hand to type at the moment. I was out earlier practicing for the X-games on my dirt bike and shattered my collar bone in three places. Just got home from the hospital and just took my first pain pill.  Hopefully it'll start kicking in soon.  The last 6 hours have been pretty painful!

what does the apache error log say? alternately, you can code

Code: [Select]

and then see what error it gives in the browser.

other than that i dunno.  i'm just starting perl-cgi programming.

you might also try (if you haven't already)

Code: [Select]

and see if some of your code is a little funny....

also; you can do use

Code: [Select]

and enter the necessary KEY=VALUE pairs on the command line.  end with [ctl]-[d].

-t.
