PERL/CGI HOME PAGE
| Downloading, Uploading,
Unzipping and Installing of CGI programs are NOT as straight forward as
the counterparts (ASP, JSP and XML). The followings are normally
required:
Step 1 - Unzip the cgifiles.zip file using WinZip or a similar program. This should leave you with a directory named /store that contains all of the necessary .cgi and .pl and sometimes .html files. Step 2 - Upload this entire directory to your /cgi-bin. All of these files MUST be transfered in ASCII mode!!! The ONLY exceptions to this are the files contained in the directory ./html/images (for example) which need to be transferred in BINARY mode. Step 3 - Do the necessary chmod (e.g. 755 or 644) to each affected files. Step 4 - Check that the correct path to perl on your system has been reflected in the program/PERL script. This line should look something like: #!/usr/bin/perl -T Step 5 - Refer to books and supplementary notes by Hamilton if
you are still not sure.

| ===QUICK START
(UNIX)===
1. Make a directory that is given write permissions. 2. Open the script with a plain text editor (vi, pico or emacs) and edit the first line of the configuration section to point to the directory you just made. Also, edit the first line of the script to point to the perl executable on your system. 3. Put
your_cgi_file.cgi in your cgi-bin dir and give it executable
permissions. |
