The result of which perl is "/usr/bin/perl"
I wrote the following cgi script for testing
###########
#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: test/html\n\n";
print "Show Me the monkey";
############
When I browser to the file by going to http://localhost/~lover/test.cgi
the screen shows me the source code.
Well uploading the script to remote server the result is "Show Me the monkey"
Can any of you give me a hint how to make my machine support the cgi please ? Any hint will be highly appreciated!
Thanks a lot in advance
