My fix would be:
cd to the document-root directory of your web server.
cd ..
mkdir cgi-bin
mv qmailadmin /to/the/directory/you/just/created
vi httpd.conf and add the following line:
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /the/directory/you/just/added
then try hitting:
http://www.yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/qmailadmin

Hi..
Its me and my RTFM question... in my httpd.conf I have following...
AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl
It means only .cgi and .pl files will be threated as CGI scripts.. but qmailadmin has no extension...
-rwsr-sr-x 1 vpopmail vchkpw 127260 Feb 19 20:21 qmailadmin*
This is my output of ls command... it may be a rtfm mistake, but I really dont have a clue where my mistake lies...
TIA

Hi...
After I installed qmailadmin, I cannot call the cgi script. My browser always starts a text file download. Can anyone tell me what am I doing wrong? And yes - I googled, I read the manual of apache webserver, and I still dont know that am I doing wrong...
TIA

Probably because your web server doesn't know that qmailadmin is a cgi program. Some web servers are configured to only think programs that end with .cgi are to be run as cgi programs. What usually happens is the web server sends the qmailadmin binary as a text file that looks like garbage characters. The solution is to re-configure your web server to run it as a cgi.
