CGI / C++ probs in Windows.

hi fundoos,

i have the nusphere apache ( http://www.nusphere.com ) for windows installed on my win Me machine..

the cgi scripts written in Perl are working absolutely fine..

but i have made one very simple c++ cgi program. it just prints the content type and the hello world message.

i have compiled it and put the exe in cgi-bin directory. now when i try to run it from browser... browser doesnt show up anything..infect the progress bar keeps on increasing..i can guess its just executing the file for indefinate time...

so i have even put exit at the last statement, i have also checked that program runs properly from console..

just that it shows nothing up when called through browser...

my friend says that c++ cgi program doesnt work on apache for window. i dont think that can be case..

can anyone help me plz ???


its very urgent,
jd

Does Apache know that .exe files are to be treated as cgi's? Do you have .exe in the cgi-script AddHandler line in httpd.conf? E.g.,

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl .exe

I don't use Apache in Windows, so I am guessing a bit here, but this is what it sounds like.

Have you checked the error_log?
