Password encryption script path help needed 3

[MrPhreaker]

Good morning all

I have cgi-scripts running on my webserver in location

f:\Oracle\Apache\Apache\cgi-bin\

and my htdocs is

e:\Sofia\

The script is :

#!c:/Perl/bin/perl.exe
require ("cgi-lib.pl");
&ReadParse(*form);
$user = $form{'user'};
$pass = $form{'pass'};

#Start here to edit the 5 variables that may need to be changed #
####################################################################

# Edit Variable #1 of 5
#Set #!/usr/bin/perl at the top line 1 to point to your Perl interpretor
#Usually #!/usr/bin/perl or #!/usr/local/bin/perl

# Edit Variable #2 of 5
#Replace "california" on next line with your own username
$myusername = "so";

# Edit Variable #3 of 5
#Replace "raisins" on next line with your own password
$mypassword = "mi";

# Edit Variable #4 of 5
#Replace "granted.txt" on next line with your own file to be displayed when user/pass is correct
$protectedfile = "e:\Sofia\new\index.htm";

# Edit Variable #5 of 5
#Replace "denied.txt" on next line with your own file to be displayed when user/pass is incorrect


$accessdeniedfile = "denied.txt";

#That's it for this file Install Step #2. Now go to Install Step #3 on the readme.txt file.

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
if ($mypassword eq $pass && $myusername eq $user)
{
open (granted, "$protectedfile");
@granted=<granted>;
print "@granted";
close (granted);
}
else
{
open (denied, "$accessdeniedfile");
@denied=<denied>;
print "@denied";
close (denied);
}

However, the default pointing to granted.txt works but when I put in a path like:

e:\Sofia\new\index.htm


results in an error stating that it cannot find the page. The page itself can be navigated to without problems normally when not using the script.



Please can someone advise me as to how to put in the correct path so that my index page is shown ?



Many thanks

Hello Greg,

Don't you need to say e:/Sofia/new/index.htm instead of e:\Sofia\new\index.htm?

Alternately, you could put in e:\\Sofia\\new\\index.htm as backslashes need to be escaped.
