Hi Gaurav,
I did not read your earlier email(s) but just the httpd.conf file you
enclosed.
On line (if I counted correctly) 81:
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi
Then on line 105:
AddHandler cgi-script .pl
Should 105 be:
AddHandler perl-script .pl
This is a guess, all my web experience is on an OS/390 and Apache is new
to me.
Regards,
kobe
