1. I've searched the forum's, but Brian, Glen, Eliot and Mitch's post don't really anwer my question.
2. I know I'm close, short of "CGIwrap Error: Script is not executable. Issue chmod 755 /home/m/u/murgnam/www/cgi-bin/Directory/csv/joebag.94312641595228.csv"
3. I uploaded in ASCII, got the above error, created a csv directory and chmod 755.
4. Do I need to post my db.pl/html.pl as txt? I know this is some simple bonehead error on my part ... any clues?
NOTE: Yes, I'm using the short/long display, if that's my prob, :-0.

The problem is mostly associated with your html.pl file, which you should post as a text file and then give us the URL.

Try http://www.flash.net/~murgnam/html_pl.txt or http://www.flash.net/~murgnam/db_pl.txt.
Thx.

Still lost. Any clues from my txt files?

Well, one problem I see is that you do not have a slash between the variables, $$csvfilename and $db_csv_path in the following codes:


I know you have the trailing slash for $db_csv_path in your db.pl file. Take the trailing slash out and then add it in-between the variables I mentioned above.

I don't really know if this will make a difference or not. But that is the only alarming codes I saw in your html.pl file.

Eliot,

Thx 4 the reply, but it was a no go.

As I understand yr reply, I removed the trailing slash from my db.pl ...

$db_csv_path = "/home/m/u/murgnam/www/cgi-bin/Directory/csv";

...then encorporated in my html.pl ...

my ($csvfileloc) = ">$db_csv_path/$csvfilename";

...same exact result ... "CGIwrap Error: Script is not executable. Issue chmod 755 /home/m/u/murgnam/www/cgi-bin/Directory/csv/joebag.94393178587769.csv"

The strange thing is I get as far as "Click here to retrieve"|Open or d/l to drive ... and if I look, via FTP, @ www/cgi-bin/Directory/csv, the content IS there.

Talk to my ISP?

Well, I am not too familar with XML. So, I just checked the syntax and that was the only problem I could see.

Good luck.

I figured out the bonehead mistake I made. In case others are having probs with this script maybe the below helps ... maybe not, :-0.

I created my csv directory in my cgi-bin -v- the correct location, the location of my webpages. When I then chmod 755, the script works!!! WOOHOO, oh happy day.

I'm glad you got the mod working, JR.

Any suggestions on adding chmod tips for the mod?

Don

Don,
Think it was just me not being familiar with Perl/CGI.

But to make things easier for folks like me you might want to edit the mod to caution against ID in the 1st field (changing to AlumniId worked for my cause) and a reminder to create the csv directory in the location of webpages and chmod 755, that would've done the trick for me.

Thanks JR.

Your suggestions are appreciated.

Hi I'm getting the following error...Do you think you might know what the problem is?

Error Message : fatal error: Unable to open CSV file location (>auto/gsg-sw/htdocs/seg/csv/rsud.98944916536640.csv). at ./html.pl line 2043.
