Hello there,

Yes, I am. - /www/cgi-bin/simple -

Yes, there are other files, .cgi, .pl and executables without extension like
the simple executable.

cgi's called from html-sites run (i.e. the counter) quite well, all files
run quite well while executing from the telnet connection. But nothing
operates when calling directly through the browser. Everytimes I receive the
404 error.

He told me the /www/cgi-bin directory is the correct directory!

I tryed that and got some new errors. The file could not been executed
because of a Server or DNS-Error. I got this through the browser.

Indeed, in the /mvend/error.log I got _Runtime error: Need URI::URL for this
functionality_. I saw that modul beeing installed from the perl/CPAN during
the configuration of minivend and there was no error about it would have not
been installed. I reconfigured the whole installation with no success again.
Please, don't tell me I have to install it manually!? I don't know if I have
the permissions to do that on my ISP's server via telnet.

It still doesn't work. Have you any idea which way to go on?
