I am on suse10 64bit and when installing ispconfig used /srv/www I am trying to use the test files all of them work except for the hello_world.pl one. I have set the file to chmod 777 and still no joy, if I turn off the suexec it works.

any ideas.

also a quick note if I try and use putty it attempts to make the connection and then lets me log in, but before I get a command prompt my server closes the connection.

Any ideas.

Who is the owner and group of that web site? The Perl file must belong to this owner and group with suExec.

Did you enable Shell access for the web and the user?

1) How do I check who is the owner and group
2) How would I change it if its wrong

3) I tried to login as root using putty... I think I need to enable shell access for root at some point or perhaps create a different system user.

Thanks

Normally root has shell access unless you changed something in /etc/passwd...

So I am not understanding how it is supposed to work, if I create a new site and login and upload perl scripts they are not going to work, so is there something else I am going to have to do.

Do I need to create owners and groups.

I am just not understanding this bit... can someone explain it.

Thanks

Ok when I do ls -l on the .pl file this is what I get

server1:~ # ls -l /srv/www/web1/cgi-bin/hello_world.pl
-rwxrwxrwx 1 web1-user1 web1 379 May 3 11:02 /srv/www/web1/cgi-bin/hello_world.pl
server1:~ #

Which as far as I can tell is right so what do I try next....

Thanks

What group members should my groups have i.e. group web1 should be a member of "admispconfig", "web1-user1" should there be any others like "postfix","root","wwwrun" ect...
