    Is that file a cgi script?
[reply]

      the process is like this, user requests a cgi script with a pdf file name, my script grabs the file name, then passes the file name to a .pl script as an argument, and my .pl script scraps the pdf, generates the required data in csv file, and then, displays the location of csv file on browser

      user then calls my url "http://my.server.name/cgi-bin/Output/Waybill/waybills01_29_14.csv"

      all the directories are in cgi directory

        the process is like this,

        :) Hmm, that is a whole lot more letters than "yes" or "no"

        Your apache thinks files in the cgi-bin are cgi programs, so apache tries to execute them ... its almost like apache has been told that stuff in cgi-bin is cgi programs to be executed....
