Forbidden Message, when accessing .pl files from Java Webserver

[Murari]

Hi Experts,

This is the form I am using:

<form name="getsometh ing" method="GET"
action="http://myip:8080/cgi-bin/do.pl" TARGET="">

<INPUT type="button" name="SUBMIT" value="CLICK ME"
onClick="doStuf f();"
<INPUT type="hidden" name="someinfo" value="test">


</form>

When I run it I get : 403 Forbidden

When I change action="http://myip/somedir/cgi-bin/do.pl" then page
cannot be dispalyed.

I am really tired of this. Please help me to resolve the issue.

I can't help it but hat doesn't look like Perl code to me....

You may want to ask in NG that actually deals with CGI or JavaScript or
DHTML or whatever the code above is.

1) Check that the script is executable

and 2) you should probably ask this in the webserver ng.

1. Confirm that you can run perl cgi on your server - out
of the box perl cgis are often disabled.

Then try

2. changing GET to POST
3. changing type="button" name="SUBMIT" to type=submit value="Click Me"

PS. If you're tired of it. Do something else. No one cares if you tired
or not.
