Running CGI ScriptsITS UNIX staff has installed CGIwrap on the UTS and CCWF systems. This enables Web publishers on these systems to execute CGI scripts under their own user id (uid). In the examples on this page, the scriptname is "helloworld.cgi," the username is "twmaint," and the server is "uts.cc.utexas.edu." To run a script saved in your cgi-bin directory, enter the following URL in your Web browser: http://server/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/username/scriptnameWhere server is the server you are using, username is your username, and scriptname is the name of your script. Using the scriptname "helloworld.cgi," the username "twmaint," and the server "uts.cc.utexas.edu," the URL would be: http://uts.cc.utexas.edu/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/twmaint/helloworld.cgi If the same user were to use CCWF, the URL would be: http://ccwf.cc.utexas.edu/cgi-bin/cgiwrap/twmaint/helloworld.cgi If everything worked properly, you should see a blank screen
with the words "Hello World!" in the top left corner (see screen shot
below). Otherwise, look for the error on the Debugging
CGI Scripts page. |
