Perl cgi forms not displaying . broken?

[Melvin Thomas Melvin <me...@myrealbox.com>]

Howdy.

I am running a straight-out-of-the-box apache 1.3 installation made with --prefix=/usr/local/apache-cgi --enable-module=cgi on HPUX 11.0.

I've got PERL 5.6.1 and the default version w/HP 11.

I've tried a number of sample CGI forms from a bunch of places and none of them seem to display the forms. The scripts execute and then just display the part of the script that should come after the submit is clicked.

For instance this script: http://www.cgi101.com/class/ch5/colors.txt

Just returns: "Results" and nothing more.

I've tried the examples from Perl in a nutshell, and CGI 101, and I've started to think it's my Apache.

Please assist.

Thanks
-M

As far as I can see, the "Results" is the only thing that this script can
output, the input to it (the form) must be another script.

Could you tell us what the problems are with those? You say that your CGI's
are executed, but don't give the expected output, which do sound more like a
perl programming question.
