To those who have had this error when trying to access calendar.pl, what did your host say to change?  My host is on IIS 4 platform.

I've followed instructions to the T and made sure that everything was in the correct place (path and permissions) and I still get nothing.

Any help is appreciated

If you are getting a 404 server error message when trying to view the calendar, you typed the wrong URL into the browser.

Check the location of the calendar.pl file on the server and also what address you've entered into the browser.

If you can't figure it out, maybe your host's support can since only they can look through your web space to find where files are located.

Hey DanO, thanks for your reply.  I've read a million posts with this same problem but I mean it's easy.  The cgi-bin sits right off the root: http://mysite.com/cgi-bin/.   I've checked w/ the knowledgebase and that's the right folder...right path.

I guess my host isn't alive on Sunday...?

Thanks again.

...just so you know the path is /home/username/public_html/...

** The cgi-bin sits right off the root **

Sorry, I don't know what to tell you. If it were a permissions thing, a different error should display than a 404.

Like I suggested previously, check with their support (when they come back into the office on Monday?).

Many people put files in a cgi-bin directly under their public_html directory, when in fact the cgi-bin directory is one level lower, off the home directory of the user. Try looking for a cgi-bin folder at the same level as your public_html folder.
