Why am I Getting File Not Found When Executing My CGI?
| "File Not Found" or "No Such File or Directory" This is usually the result of CGI scripts being uploaded the wrong way. PERL is an interpreter and it wants text files to interpret. No compilation is done. So when people upload their scripts they need to be in ASCII mode. Not binary, and not automatic. ASCII mode. ASCII mode should be used for all text files and binary for things like .jpg's .zip's and such. Also make sure they know that Linux is a case-sensitive OS--so if the file they want is Marmot.html and their script looks for marmot.html then it's going to fail to find it. |
