Yes, you need to make sure that Apache is installed and enabled on UNIX. Navigate to the default page, like http://localhost/
Then find the config files for Apache and see how either local or global cgi-bin folder is configured. Then using a simple bash script cgi, test if CGI is working. Then follow the installation and configuration instructions in the JHP configuration. The link to them is at http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/JHP Report back with any problems or questions. --- Björn Helgason <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I am new to this game and I am guessing Apache has not been installed on the > machine yet. > I thought it came in automatically but I am beginning to think it is not so. > > > > 2007/2/18, bill lam <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > > > > It looks like you did not properly configure web server for cgi so that > > the > > content of test.cgi is returned in verbatim but not executed. > > > > Did you add your "/usr/lib/cups/cgi-bin/" to scriptalias, or add .cgi to > > addhanlder directive?
