I have searched the forum, and this seems to be a common problem, but I have yet to find a clear answer. There are good explanations for how to install PHP and Perl, and instructions to add the cgi path. In my application, I have a cgi written in straight C.

The executable is hello.exe (lower case)

cgi-bin is listed in the cgi paths under advanced properties

/cgi-bin

I have placed the executable in

G:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\cgi-bin\

(I have the web server installed on my G drive)

the file name is hello.exe (lower case)

micharpeal,

The cgi-bin folder should be created inside G:\Program Files\Abyss Web Server\htdocs\cgi-bin\ if you have a default setup. Otherwise it wouldn't be accessible.
