Hi,

I formatted my PC few days ago.
And I reinstalled abyss and made perl work.But i don't see any cgi-bin folder in host root .
I created it myself and tried to access "127.0.0.1/cgi-bin".
But it errors 404.
Can someone help me?

asukamomoko,

Either create it in the htdocs folder or create an alias.

This needs to be addded to the FAQ. Too many topics on this.

Q: I don't have a cgi-bin folder?

A: Abyss Web Server no longer requires a "cgi-bin" folder because of its
unique Patterns system. You can however, create one.

To create a cgi-bin, create a new folder in your Abyss Web Server program
folder called "cgi-bin". Open your Console and click on the Host you wish to
configure. Go to Aliases and add a new Alias for:

Virtual Path: /cgi-bin
Real Path: cgi-bin

Note: You can put the "cgi-bin" folder in your htdocs instead but I think it
would be best to keep things nicely organized.

Click OK to apply the settings, and go to "Scripting Parameters", add a new
script path for "/cgi-bin", and restart "Abyss Abyss Server". You're Done!

This is exactly what I was seeking. I followed the directions, created the famous hello.pl script as a test and it worked the first time.

Thank you.
