Hiya.
I need HELP!!!!!!
Okay, I know perl and cgi...but I'm at my wits end...
Anyways, I placed the correct perl path #!/usr/local/bin at the top of ALL my perl files, chomd'd EVERYTHING correctly, 755 for .pl files in my cgi-bin, and 777 for sub-directories in my html folder along with the .htm files that needed to be chmod'd to 755 (as stated in set up instructions); but NOTHING works...I keep getting error 500 for ALL my scripts and when my config file works, I enter the info, hit update and then config decides to give error 500 again and refuses to work once more....IT'S THE SAME FILE BEING READ!!!
I'm trying to test a "create your own mailing list" (similar to yahoo with JUST the mailing list...not the archive).
I followed the instructions, changed what I needed (my cgi root is /home/username/cgi-bin and my url root: /home/username/public_html and still NOTHING) I even tried chmod'ing them to the universal chmod 666 to stop errors...
I tried stripping the files from my domain and refreshing...then uploading them again. NOTHING works....
Edit: yup Ascii for .pl files in the cgi-bin and binary for .htm files (these were in the instructions to be chmod'd in myname/public_home/list/ (list had to be chmod'd too))
This is how it looks at the top (I changed my url and username to what my details are for my domain--for security reasons, I put them back for this little HELP post).
Any ideas how to stop this error? I've asked support where my domain is hosted but they haven't responded.
If anyone knows of a FREE mailinglist script (like yahoo etc.) I can set up for my site on my domain, I'd appreciate it as I'm getting sick of onelist, topica and yahoo's spamming and not sending invites--some users can't even sign up!
As I said, I'm at my wits end with this script...I can't figure it out! I only had to change the top bit for 5 scripts and cgi-local to cgi-bin on the .htm files.
*Hopeful look*
