test calling cgi pgm

[petbully]

Hi,

I'm trying to test my cgi program by enter ip addr, pgm name, and parm like below but I got error message saying web page cannot be found.
This happens after I changed my computer. What do I need to install or configure?

Thank in advance

1: where is ASP in this question?
2: what did you change?
3: Apache? IIS? version?

If you changed server: check the permissions of the CGI-BIN directory (compare them).
Check webuser permissions.
I believe you for IIS7 you need to enable CGI:

First, go to the Internet Information Services (IIS) Manager snap-in. Click on the server in the Connections list, and then click on "ISAPI and CGI Restrictions" under the IIS features view. Here you'll want to specify the path to a specific cgi application that you want to allow. Optionally, here you could also allow any cgi app to run, but that's not recommended.

Next, go back to the server (or a specific website) and click on Handler Mappings. You may already have a "CGI-exe" handler (for *.exe) that is disabled by default. Enable this, or add a new one (Request path = *.exe, Module = CgiModule, Name = whatever you like). In the handler permissions you'll need to have "Execute" checked.

(Google "enable cgi iis7" for more)

Does cgipgmname use include files? check path/ permissions.
Does cgipgmname has a redirect? idem

Hi,

1: where is ASP in this question?
I'm not calling ASP. I'm calling cgi program directly. The reason that I do this is because I want to view xml file that my cgi pgm created.

2: what did you change?
The only I changed is the new pc. So it must be something that I need to configure or install.


3: Apache? IIS? version?
I'm not using Apache. IIS is version 5 something.
