It was thus said that the Great tiwesdaeg at tilde.pink once stated:
Luke,
I'm looking in to this on tilde.pink. So far, the only way I could get a
cgi script located in a user directory to work was to create a symbolic
link directly to /var/gemini/cgi-bin/. So far, no one has implemented a
server that acts like gophernicus or geomyidae, allowing for scripts to be
run from any served directory.
Ahem.
GLV-1.12556 will run a CGI script from any directory.
This is accomplished by treating any file with execute permissions as aCGI script. If CGI is NOT enabled, then any reference to a script withexecutable permissions returns a "Temporary Error" (40).
I don't know how this is handled by webservers that support ~user
accounts.
I handle it the same as above---any file that has execute permissions istreated as a CGI script.
