It is nearly certain that this is a configuration problem. _ALL_ you mentioned is that you didn't have an AddHandler in your config files. Have you checked every directory up to and including the user's cgi-bin directory (eg. /.htaccess, all the way to .htaccess in the directory the script is in) to be sure there is no htaccess file that enables it? Look through the source yourself to try to find where Apache executes all files named .cgi; you won't find it because it isn't there. grep for cgi in all your config files, be sure you are using the right set of config files, and triple check for htaccess files. > > > > Synopsis: .cgi files execute as a cgi and I cont want them to. > > > > State-Changed-From-To: open-closed > > State-Changed-By: marc > > State-Changed-When: Sun Feb 1 11:53:15 PST 1998 > > State-Changed-Why: > > Apache does not magically execute files named with .cgi > > extensions as CGIs.
