    Complete Novice. - CGI Script Problem

    When in Advanced Network Setup I have enterted all the requested information for URLS, CGI-Bin locations etc etc.
    All are ok. (well, so my hosting company say).

    When I click the TEST button the following error message is generated...

    Actinic received a server error from the web server. The CGI scripts are not executing properly on the server. Run Web | Configure Web Site Details... to review your web site configuration.

    Been looking at different possibilities and i'm a bit stuck.

    Any offers of help very much appreciated.
    Cheers
    Arron.

    P.S. My log on my server states : Error, premeture end of script errors.

          if its on a RAq then you may need to change this

          PATHTOCGIBIN cgi-bin/
          to

          PATHTOCGIBIN /web/cgi-bin/

          or do a search on the forum using UK2 as your search term, there are others out there using UK2

          I'm sure not if this

          CGIBINURL http://peterlee.info/cgi-bin/

          should be

          CGIBINURL http://www.peterlee.info/cgi-bin/

            Hmmmmm.

            Thanks for your assistance.
            Unfortunately I tried those changes you recommended to no avail.
            Same problem still exists.

            Just searched the forum for UK2 problems and can't seem to find
            something similar.

            Hopefully someone will have done it and can offer some advice.

            If not i'll give you a call about moving to your hosting company.

            Thanks
