Dhivya,
Of course your CGI folder is executable only. Would you want the CGI scripts to
be displayed as text? No, you want them executed.
The standard practice is to setup an icons or images folder and alias it. Tell
apache the full path to that folder.
then use
<img src = '../images/hrabargraph2.gif'>
-------------------- httpd.conf snip ----------------
Alias /images/ "/var/www/html/images/"
<Directory "/var/www/html/images">
# Options Indexes MultiViews
AllowOverride None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
----------------- end snip -----------------------
cheers,
Mark

I have a local web server set up on a windows machine with Apache. I'm using
Perl cgi script to create a web interface. Everything is working well, except
that images are not getting displayed on the website. The images along with the
perl code are in the cgi-bin directory of apache- I dont know why there's a
problem only with the images.
Here's the set of header lines, followed by the line of code that displays the
image:
use CGI qw(:standard);
use CGI;
use Shell qw(echo wget);
use CGI::Carp qw( fatalsToBrowser carpout);
my $query = new CGI;
print $query->header();
........
print "<center><img src = 'hrabargraph2.gif'></img></center><p><p><p><p>";
The hrabargraph.gif is already in cgi-bin folder. Usually with Linux, such
things happen because of permissions. What could be the reason in Windows? Is
it the perl code or could it be some kind of apache configuration?
thanks
dhivya
