Hello,
I'm have a fair amount of experience in C/C++, but am just venturing into CGI, and am having no luck getting the simplest CGI executable to work. The server I am uploading to is a UNIX, and I am compiling my C files with Visual Studio 5.0. When I run the executable on the command prompt, I get the desired output, but when I put it in the cgi-bin directory on the server, and attempt to run it, it gives me the download dialog. And then if I try to execute it using server side includes it says "an error occurred while processing directive". I have tried naming the file with both the .exe and .cgi extension. Any tips would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!
