Since the other thread gone into the wild, i choosed not to participate any longer and i state the question in this new thread.
'python files.py' interprets without an error. Problem is that when via browser - http://superhost.gr/cgi-bin/koukos.py i receive the following: ------------------------------- root@nikos [/home/nikos/www/cgi-bin]# ls ./ ../ convert.py* files.py* .htaccess koukos.py* metrites.py* pelatologio.py* root@nikos [/home/nikos/www/cgi-bin]# tail -F /usr/local/apache/logs/error_log & root@nikos [/home/nikos/www/cgi-bin]# [Wed Jun 05 22:47:43 2013] [error] [client 79.103.41.173] (2)No such file or directory: exec of '/home/nikos/public_html/c gi-bin/koukos.py' failed [Wed Jun 05 22:47:43 2013] [error] [client 79.103.41.173] Premature end of scrip t headers: koukos.py ---------------------------------- What file does the error complain it cannot find? I do not understand its message. Here is the code of koukos.py ----------------------------- #!/usr/bin/python # coding=utf-8 import cgitb; cgitb.enable() import cgi, os, sys, locale, codecs from http import cookies #needed line, script does *not* work without it sys.stdout = codecs.getwriter('utf-8')(sys.stdout.detach()) # initialize cookie cookie = cookies.SimpleCookie( os.environ.get('HTTP_COOKIE') ) cookie.load( cookie ) nikos = cookie.get('nikos') # if visitor cookie does exist if nikos: message = "ΑΠΟ ΤΗΝ ΕΠΟΜΕΝΗ ΕΠΙΣΚΕΨΗ ΣΟΥ ΘΑ ΣΕ ΥΠΟΛΟΓΙΖΩ ΩΣ ΕΠΙΣΚΕΠΤΗ ΑΥΞΑΝΟΝΤΑΣ ΤΟΝ ΜΕΤΡΗΤΗ!" cookie['nikos'] = 'admin' cookie['nikos']['path'] = '/' cookie['nikos']['expires'] = -1 #this cookie will expire now else: message = "ΑΠΟ ΔΩ ΚΑΙ ΣΤΟ ΕΞΗΣ ΔΕΝ ΣΕ ΕΙΔΑ, ΔΕΝ ΣΕ ΞΕΡΩ, ΔΕΝ ΣΕ ΑΚΟΥΣΑ!
