1) i can't find .htaccess in my vps to change DirectoryIndex, so it goes to index.html instead of nph-proxy.cgi 2) when i open nph-proxy.cgi it is a text instead of the proxy site anyone with knowledge on vps should be able to help me in like <1 minute, so i'll pay whoever can help me something small since it should be really easy. thanks
1) You can create .htaccess file and just insert a code "DirectoryIndex /path/nph-proxy.cgi" in it. It will automatically set nph-proxy.cgi as default web page. 2) If nph-proxy.cgi is showing text on a browser then please : -Upload all CGI/Perl files in the 'cgi-bin' directory, which is in the 'public_html' directory. -Check Permissions for "cgi-bin" directory. (It should be 755) -Check Permissions for all the cgi/perl files. (It should be 755) -Make sure that files are uploaded in ASCII format. If uploaded through File Manager then there is no such issue of upload file format. -Check the PERL interpreter path. It should be #!/usr/bin/perl or #!/usr/local/bin/perl
