Executing Perl from cgi-bin directory

phlampe

New Pleskian
Hi everyone !

I would like to execute perl scripts from the cgi-bin directory of one of my domains. The server is using Plesk 8.3 on Unix.

I checked the "cgi" and "perl" check-boxes in Plesk for my domain and for a web-user.

I can execute my perl script from http://mydomain.com/~webuser/cgitest.pl (and it should work from http://mydomain.com/cgitest.pl too), but can't do it from http://mydomain.com/cgi-bin/cgitest.pl : the file gets downloaded, not executed.

Any ideas where to tell Plesk that .pl files are executables in the /cgi-bin/ directory ?

Thanks for your help,
Paul-Henri
