This probably means that you have the cgi-bin directory set incorrectly. Go into the Project > Properties > Web Server >> CGI (eg. Perl) page and under CGI-BIN (Perl Programs) Root, put the directory where your Perl files reside as the base path. You can then refer to any files in this directory as /cgi-bin/filename in your HTML documents. Or you can leave the directory blank, and just make sure all files are in the same directory as your project (if using the default project, this is the projects directory under your PerlWiz installation directory). You can of course have subdirectories within the cgi-bin folder in order to organize more complex CGI projects. Back to Top (c) Copyright 2003-8 Arctan Computer Ventures Ltd. All Rights Reserved.
