Re: [PLUG] Tux Configuration


Just go with Apache. Pop in some RPMs, if they're not already in, and you're done. Well, you might want to configure it a little.

I put a Linux Box (Red Hat 8.0) into operation at work as an FTP server.
Then we had a problem with our web hosting and had to move the main web site in house. I had installed Tux not expecting it to be a web server, and Tux works fine. Now the server needs a form, and it looks like the version of Tux installed supports CGI, and I configured its CGI directory in tux.conf. It just doesn't work.


One thing that may or may not be an issue is that scripts don't execute off the command line:
http://www.site/cgi-bin/hello.pl --> get the raw text of the script.
# hello.pl --> command not found. (script has execute permission).
# ./hello.pl --> executes hello.pl


Before I have to stay late and install apache, has anyone gotten cgi scripts to work with tux?
