Can I add my own CGI scripts?

Our LINUX web servers have the capability to run CGI scripts in your own "cgi-bin" directory. Scripts may be written in Perl and CGI languages.

Here are some helpful tips to follow when installing scripts:

Upload to your cgi-bin directory to ensure proper file permission settings. All scripts on our server must have permissions set to 755 (rwx-rx-rx). If you need help in changing script permissions, please see the following:

  • Upload in ASCII transfer mode (and NOT BINARY mode)
  • The first line of each script must read: #!/usr/bin/perl
  • Ensure the permissions are set to 755
