I recently saw a similar problem, where the server was refusing to run a
script because the DIRECTORY it was in was world-writeable (how the
directory became world writable is another question....).

Hello all,

So, I'm migrating a site from my test-server (Powerbook running
Apache/Darwin BSD) to my web host and all my CGI scripts are giving me
that error. The header error is also the only error that's showing up
in the error_log.

I've checked all the usual suspects:

file permissions (775)
syntax (perl -Tc is clean)
malformed headers (using CGI.pm->header(), so not likely)
script runs fine from command line on web server (which I believe rules
out binary transfer and carraige returns)

The site is on a managed server which has an automated setup process,
so its highly unlikely that this is a bad ScriptAlias directive.

Any thoughts?

Matt

Hi All,

I am new to CGI, I thought you people might be able to help me:

My HTML code:
--------

http://localhost/cgi-bin/mult.cgi" METHOD="GET">

Please specify the multiplicands

--------

The template file is found at
http://www.blendedsystems.com/cgiemail/productinfo.txt

The page using it is http://www.blendedsytems.com/newcont.html

As far as I can see (after several days of staring at the screen), the
variables in the html page match the variables in the template.

When I use the page, I get:

Form was not processed due to an error.
403 No variable substitutions in template
/home/blended/public_html/cgiemail/productinfo.txt
cgiemail 1.6

Where have I screwed up?

Hi there, thanks for the reply. I did try using "productcode" for the
value, but it didn't return anything at all. Here's the line from the
html page with the form on it:

Aca's
Betty Davis

---

The only thing that changes in that line above is the name,
Aca'sBettyDavis becomes one of 1199 other names. This line is repeated
1200 times with a different name in there.

This is the email template that I'm using:

What is your name? [yourname]
What is your email address? [email]
What is your telephone number? [telnumber]

African Violets Ordered:

[productcode]

What I really need this form to do is to return the name of the violet
that they've checked off. It could be one checkbox or 1200 checkboxes,
just depends on the person doing the ordering.

Okay, I have cgiemail set up at my host, and it works. But, I have a
template and an html order form with over 1200 check boxes, each check box
is a different product, and what I want to do is have the template email
what products the customer checks off. I have everything set up, and it
work except for one thing. No matter what items are checked off all I get
in the email is the work "checked". That's it, no product name.

Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance for any advise on this problem. It's been driving me
nuts for several days now, and I just know it something stupid that I'm
missing.

JOE!

You're sending a question to thousands of people, with no clue as to the
context. How about using the quoting that Google provides for you?

The problem with your template is/was that you used a user-provided email
address in the To: header. Don't do that!!!!!!!

But you didn't delete the offending template, which is still live.

No one is flaming you about spam. We're simply pointing out to you that what
you're doing is a very bad thing to do.

No, you came to thousands of people who are Usenet users. The fact that
Google groups also post to and archive Usenet newsgroups is irrelevant.
