This article is for cPanel Accounts. Determine where your account is with this guide.
Our cPanel shared web servers can run CGI scripts in your own "cgi-bin" directory. Scripts may be written in Perl and CGI languages.
Here are some helpful tips to follow when installing scripts:
- Upload to your cgi-bin directory to ensure proper file permission settings. All scripts on our server must have permissions set to 755 (rwx-rx-rx).
- Upload in ASCII transfer mode (and NOT BINARY mode)
- The first line of each script must read: #!/usr/bin/perl
- Ensure the permissions are set to 755
