Linux Hosting : PathsThe paths to Perl and sendmail are located on the main page in your CPanel control panel. Typically these are: Perl - /usr/bin/perl and sendmail - /usr/sbin/sendmail
Paths on a CGI generated page should be full or relative URL from the script location unless you include a BASE reference in the <head></head> for a different location. It may be best to include the whole URL path for links and image sources in CGI generated pages so the browser can find the images even if you move the script.
- Example:
- print qq(<p><img src="/~user/images/some.gif">\n);
Paths for files you open in a script for reading or writing should be UNIX or system paths relative to the script or full path from root (which may differ from your shell root).
- Example:
- open (FILE, "/home/machine/user/public_html/log.txt");
