Probably the server is not executing your CGI script. If it is the Apache web server that you are using then just ensure the following settings in your /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf file is exactly like following: <Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin"> AllowOverride None Options ExecCGI Order allow,deny Allow from all </Directory> -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
