Re: [mv] cgi inf ACTION="/cgi-bin/flycat/process" not found

[Charles Cummings <webmaster@objectivesolutions.net>]

I use PERL cgi scripts extensively on my server.  That part is definitely ok.  Question is, why are
there no files in /cgi-bin/flycat ?  The error is
"The requested URL /cgi-bin/flycat/process was not found on this server." and it is correct - there
is no such file.  There is a file
"flycat" under my cgi-bin directory (it is executable), so as far as I can see
"/cgi-bin/flycat/process" is meaningless, as "flycat" in
this context is not a directory.

Thanks,

Charles
