Hi,
None of my scripts seem to work so I guess that I am doing something really stupid.
I am ftp'ing in ascii mode and chmod'ing as per the instructions
One of them is a form http://www.4legs.fi/4legs/ppc.htm
the form script is Matt Wrights FormMail version 1.6
and the configurable section is as follows
#!/opt/perl/bin/perl

The Information from my server is
Perl /opt/perl/bin/perl
Sendmail /usr/lib/sendmail
sh /bin/sh
date /bin/date
The server is using perl 5.004

Thanks again
Tony

Before you criticise someone walk a mile in their shoes......
Then, if they don't like what you say they are 1 mile away and barefoot.

From what you gave, the only thing that looks wrong is the line:
@referers = ('worldwidemart.com','206.31.72.203');
Make sure your domain is listed there, not worldwidemart.com

Hi,
I changed the line that you suggested, but still not working,
Could there be something wrong with my html at http://www.4legs.fi/4legs/ppc.htm that is making an internal server error ??
Is anyone willing to ftp to my server to see what I am doing wrong as this is SOOOooooo frustrating !!!
If anyone wants to help i will mail you password & user name
Thanks again
Tony

Try looking through your error log files (usually in /var/log).
Also try telneting into your host, change the directory to where the script can be found and type
perl scriptname.cgi -w
which will output any warnings it find in your code.

I have tried to access the error logs, but I cannot for some reason
When I write perl -w FormMail.cgi it comes back with this ;

Error: Request Method
Error: Request Method
The Request Method of the Form you submitted did not match
either GET or POST. Please check the form and make sure
the
method= statement is in upper case and matches GET or POST.
