problem running cgi-forms on apache!!!!!! please help

Post by s.. » Sun, 31 Dec 1899 09:00:00



Hello!  please read me!!

I am trying to execute the following form cgi script on my freebsd
server running apache 1.3.6:
(the script is available at http://www.jojoxx.net and is called
jxformmail.zip)

<form action="cgi-bin/jxformmail.pl" method="post">
Subject: <input type="text" name="jxsubject"><br>
Email: <input type="text" name="jxreplyto"><br>
<textarea name="mailbody" cols="40" rows="10"></textarea><br>
<input type="submit" value="S?nd">
</form>

but get this error *all* the time:

"Method Not Allowed
The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /cgi-
bin/jxformmail.pl."

Whats going on here!?!? Is the problem in the .pl file (have checked it
over and over) or the server!? I have heard from two guys that its the
server the problem lies in, but *what* is the problem and how do i fix
it!?!? I am really a novice at freebsd but know people that can do it.
The .pl file is executable by the way, that much I know  ;(  *please
help if you know anything about this, desperate!!!*
