Try naming the script "myfirst_cgi.cgi" instead of ".pl". Sometimes webservers are configured to expect that. Make sure permissions are set properly for the script to be executed by your webserver also. Sometimes webservers are of group "nobody", for example. And make sure the shebang line is correct.

Greetings all, The ENV script is a script written to print out all of the name=value pairs of the the `%ENV` hash. The `%ENV` hash contains elements relating to your environment, which in most cases differs depending on where a particular script is run (i.e. executed from a web server vs. from the command line.). The output you posted looks like an ENV script as described above and the reason `test.pl` was mentioned is that the environment variables `SCRIPT_NAME` and `REQUEST_URI` are both set to `/cgi-bin/test.pl`. If this was your script it would be set to `/cgi-bin/myfirst_cgi.pl`. -InjunJoel "I do not feel obliged to believe that the same God who endowed us with sense, reason and intellect has intended us to forego their use." -Galileo	[reply] [d/l] [select]
