Not able to access cgi-bin

[BlackThuder]

Hi

 

I am not able to read anything anything in cgi-bin

 

When I try to open

http://urjas.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/

 

 

It shows

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Forbidden

 

You don't have permission to access /cgi-bin/ on this server.

 

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

I have changed the folder permission to 755. Not sure why it does not work. Any idea. I have written some python code and want to start testing.

 

 

Regards

You need to Enable directory indexing:

 

Options +Indexes in .htaccess.

The cgi-bin is set up that way by default. Just give your script a name other than index.py, ie.

 

cgi-bin/my_script.py

Did that ... named it Hi.py

 

and it has at the beginning

#!/usr/bin/env python
print "Content-type: text/plain\n"

 

Shows a internal server error. Check that out at

http://urjas.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/Hi.py

 

I think I got it ...

 

The file should have usr/bin/python at the top ... cnt check nnow ... Johnny seems to be down

See the issue in escalated requests.

on opening the python script in "my_script.py" file in cgi-bin folder

http://youtubedownloader.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/my_script.py

and it is showing:

internal server error and additionally a 404 not found error.

and the script in my_script.py file is

CODE:

#!/usr/bin/python

print "Content-type: text/plain\n"

First of all, please don't bring up posts which are three years old.

 

Anyway, this works:-

#!/usr/bin/python
print("Content-Type: text/html\n\n");
print("Hello");

http://yashrs.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/hello.py

 

Also, your my_script.py file should be have permission 755.

Why "First of all, please don't bring up posts which are three years old." ?

Do you really prefer that we create new post ? Hundreds and hundreds of posts, same subjects, all unsolved...
