Hi!

Thank you for a great webserver! The best I've used ever.

I have a problem... I cant download files I uploaded on my sevre. Look:
http://fsg.gotdns.com/albin/programmering/program/downloadtime.exe

Can you help me with this?

Regards Albin!

Thank you :D

OK. The problem is the following: the path where is your file belongs to the CGI Paths (or to one of their subpaths). It is especially the case if you set / as a CGI Path.
What happens is that the web server will consider every .exe in the CGI Paths (or their subpaths) file as a CGI application and it will try to launch it. But your .exe isn't a good CGI application and thus your get error 500.

The solution is to correctly configure CGI Paths:
* Open the console
* Select Server Configuration > Advanced > CGI Parameters.
* Remove for example '/' and any path that doesn't contain CGI scripts. Add only to that table paths that really contain CGI scripts and check that /albin/programmering/program/ isn't a subpath of the CGI Paths.
* Restart the server.

More information about CGI Paths is available in the documentation.
