I think I it has to do with apache configuration. I think apache does not allow any
references to any location other than html folder ( Why ! ? I do not know) . I can see
the path translated for any of the scripts show as if they were in html folder even
though I assign them a relative path, which points to some other location with in my
server.
Even perl does not get executed. When I reference a pl file ( first line maps to perl
interpreter) I get it displayed as if it was txt file.

Subject: RE: Running Perl program
I experience same problem. I applied all comments from List but still I get "The
requested URL /home/httpd/cgi-bin/counter.pl was not found on this server."
Here I have a Win95box browsing a page on another Linux box. I chmod counter.pl to
777. One thing is interesting it worked when ran over the linux box !!!.
Something ambiguous in the middle somewhere , maybe someone has a hint on it.

If you check the first line of your prog1.pl file, you will most likely
find that the reference to where the perl executable is located is
wrong.
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
#!/usr/bin/perl
Whatever... it needs to be a valid reference. Otherwise you will get
the error message you are talking about...
