randomguy Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 hi,I have a simple ruby cgi script that I want to be able to use via helio web-server. It is working ok on my linux machine. Where exactly should I upload this cgi script? The cgi-bin folder or the public_html folder? My script includes the following shebang: #!/usr/local/bin/ruby. Do I need to change permissions on the script file? So far I've not been able to execute/access it from either cgi-bin or public_html.Thanks.

randomguy Posted December 29, 2016 Author Share Posted December 29, 2016 I've uploaded another script with the following shebang: #!/usr//bin/ruby. Sadly, still getting server error. I would really appreciate if anybody could help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krydos Posted December 29, 2016 Share Posted December 29, 2016 Create public_html/cgi-bin/test.rbGive it 755 permissionsPut the following contents#!/usr/bin/ruby puts "Content-Type: text/html\n\n" puts "Ruby is working as CGI..." Here is my example file on Johnny http://krydos1.heliohost.org/cgi-bin/test.rb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
