WampServer

I have the same problem as Amir Ali from 12/4/06.
I can run .pl scripts if they are in /cgi-bin, but not if they are in the DocumentRoot dir. Scripts with extension .cgi I can't run at all. I did everything that was suggested to Amir Ali, but it still doesn't work. Any ideas?

open httpd.conf

change:
<Directory "C:/wamp/www">

#
# Possible values for the Options directive are "None", "All",
# or any combination of:
# Indexes Includes FollowSymLinks SymLinksifOwnerMatch ExecCGI MultiViews
#
# Note that "MultiViews" must be named *explicitly* --- "Options All"
# doesn't give it to you.
#
# The Options directive is both complicated and important. Please see
# [httpd.apache.org]
# for more information.
#
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks

to:

<Directory "C:/wamp/www">

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI


change this:
#AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

to
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

save the file, restart apache

I had that already. Also this is uncommented:

LoadModule cgi_module modules/mod_cgi.so


Still doesn't handle .cgi files. Browser gives me "Server Internal Error".

Any other ideas?

make sure you have the correct location to perl in the top line of all your perl files
#!c:/wamp/perl/bin/perl

Yes I do. Any other ideas?

try changing this line from my previous post above:
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI

Change it to:
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks +ExecCGI

Also try changing this line:
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

Change it to:
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl

Save the file, and restart apache for the new settings to take effect.

I already tried those things. It didn't make any difference. I guess you must be running out of suggestions.

where are you saving your cgi files at?

make sure you restart apache for new settins to take effect.

I just going to try that nothing happens to run the .pl file to my server

HOW? HOW? any one can help me pls.....
