easyhost script

[amt167]

i am trying to install a script and when i go to the setup and click next it says the page cannot be found i know the scripts are in the correct dir and all paths are correct the only thing is when it trys to guess the paths where the script is it comes up are as follows:

The main folder where all accounts will be created (CHMOD 777)

Directory: C:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\htdocs/

URL: http://spacefree.co.uk/


System

The folder where all system files will be stored (CHMOD 777)

Directory: C:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\htdocs/system/

URL: http://spacefree.co.uk/system/

ive tried moving the slashes and no matter how i try i cant get it to work
does any one have any suggestions or know what the problem may be

What is the script ? It sounds like it's been written with Apache in mind...

its called easyhost for hosting websites i have used it b4 a couple of years ago but they changed it since then it now requires mysql which i have and is working correctly as far as i know it works on any serwer these are the requirements:

Version 2.0 of EasyHost has the following requirements:

A web server that allows Perl/CGI scripts
Perl 5.6.0 or above with the DBI and DBD::mysql modules
Access to an empty MySQL database

i just cant figure out why it wont work

HTTP 500 - Internal server error

Try a very simple helloworld.pl script. First run it on your PC directly in a console window to check perl is working locally, then put it on your server and test it.

print "Hello World!\n";

Copy to notepad and save as a .pl file.

amt167,

If you have error 500, this means that the Perl script experienced some problems when being executed. Check log/cgi.log for an error message from Perl.
