To see if you have CGI.pm handy in Perl's include path, execute the following $ find `perl -e 'print "@CGI"'` -name \*.pm -print | grep -i cgi You may want to add '|less' on the end, or drop the grep to see what modules are handy. > http://packages.debian.org/cgi-bin/search_contents.pl?version=unstable&arch=i386&case=insensitive&word=cgi.pm&searchmode=searchword > But still I get into a lot of problems. Do you have libcgi-perl installed? I gather from your URL that you are using unstable. You could use the debian packages to get your perl stuff, or CPAN: # perl -MCPAN -e 'install CGI' perhaps.

Should it not be something like cgi-bin, or /home/tony/public_html/cgi ? Is here a .htaccess file in this directory, if so what is the contents? -- Jon Dowland [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
