Re: [MacPerl] personal web sharing

[jrough@nanospace.com]

Allan:

It worked for you but its not working for me.  I turned on web sharing
read only access.  I put the following hello world script in my web
pages folder on my hard disk with the extension .cgi.  dow.

#! perl -w

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "Hello, world!\n";

I type the IP address of my TCP/IP control panel in my web browser.  I
checked the web sharing preferences and there are some action items, do
I have to add an action tab for MacPerl or a pre-process action or something?

Its saying "Bad Gateway" on my browser and A CGI or internal server
component could not complete the requested action in the browser win
