[PHP] perl, cgi and php

2004-03-10 Thread Edward Peloke 
Hello,

First let me say, I know very little about perl and cgi.  I have a friend
who is moving his site to a new hosting company.  One of his php pages has
the following line of code:

 ?php
virtual(./timeline/ganttChart.cgi?user={$gallery-session-username}); ?

but when the page is displayed all that shows up is the content of the .cgi
script.  Is this a configuration issue?

Thanks,
Eddie

The new hosting company's web servers don't appear to have their servers
setup to parse *.cgi files through CGI.  They will need to fix that, or
he will need to move ganttChart.cgi into a directory that is setup to
handle CGI files -- sometimes you'll have a cgi-bin directory for this
purpose.
