Hi,

thanks for your answer, still haven't got it working

Here what I have done:
1. Domain is pointing to the web2py directory (where all the handlers
are inside) and I didn't move the cgi handler to another directory -
is this correct?
2. I renamed cgihandler.py to cgihandler.cgi
3. in the .htaccess I wrote:
+ Options +ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script cgi

>> 403 error

Then I added the following 2 lines to the .htaccess:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^$ / cgihandler.cgi

>> Domain is now switching from mydomain.com to 
>> mydomain.com/welcome/default/index and I get a 404 page not found

The same if I remove the "+ Options..." and "AddHandler..." line from
the .htaccess, this 2 lines do just nothing.

Where is my mistake?
Andreas
