Hi the list
help wanted
I'm fine with mapserver cgi working on my local server (windows and =
linux).
Now, Iwant to make it work on my internet site.
As the web server is running under Linux, I compile mapserver_361 (I =
tried also with mapserver_362)
(./configure, make) and I put the result mapserv to my cgi-bin =
directory.
When I hit the cgi (http://www.mydomain/cgi-bin/mapserv), I've got a =
window telling me if I want to open or download the file. I think it is =
because without any extension, the server doesn't understand the script =
tobe an executable.
So I change the name to mapserv.cgi; and now the sever answer me "The =
server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable =
to complete your request".
I made sure that the cgi-bin repertory isreadable and executable for =
everybody, as well as my mapserv (or mapserv.cgi) file.
I'm wondering if the trouble come from the fact my server only work with =
perl script and mapserv is not written in perl.
Is it true ? Is mapserv a perl script ? If not, in which langage is it =
written ?
Do you have any information about installing mapserver on remote =
internet sever ?
thanks in advance
Blaise
