How to run cgi script on apache server

Question

This is my program:

[root@localhost cgi-bin]# locate first.pl 
/home/Ram/Desktop/work/first.pl
/usr/local/apache2/cgi-bin/first.pl
[root@localhost cgi-bin]#          


        

Answer 1

Yes, the above process works but the easy way is:

1. Enable the CGI- sudo a2enmod cgi
2. Restart the Apache and it works -service apache2 restart
3. Run the cgi file http://localhost/cgi-bin/1.sh

Best Of Luck !!
