It sounds like the webserver is not executing it - make sure you have a ScriptAlias directive for the directory you're trying to put it into. If you don't want it to be restricted to a ScriptAlias'd directory, you'll need to allow cgi execution outside it with Options ExecCGI. Check the Apache manual to be sure, and be aware of the security implications of running executables outside a ScriptAlias'd directory. jason > I compiled a version of php-4.0.4 as a cgi (I already installed a module > version, but I need a CGI too).
