Overview
There are many different system paths that you will need to know in order to use the Spaceports
CGI-BIN server.
You will probably need most of the following at some point:-
- Path to Perl:
- /usr/bin/perl
or
/usr/local/bin/perl
Sendmail:- /usr/sbin/sendmail
Note that sendmail was disabled in August 2001 due to abuse.
Date:- /bin/date
CGI-BIN URL:- http://cgi-bin.spaceports.com/~username/
(replace 'username' with your username). Note the inclusion of the ~ character.
Website URL:- http://planet.spaceports.com/~username/
(replace 'planet' with www, mars, mercury, neptune, pluto, venus, saturn, jupiter, uranus, titan,
io etc. as appropriate and replace 'username' with your username). Note the inclusion of the ~
character.
CGI base path for accounts created before end July 2000:- /home/username/public_html/
(replace 'username' with your username). Note there is no ~ character in paths. This is the same
for both servers!
CGI base path for accounts created between end July 2000 and middle of February
2002:- /home2/username/public_html/
(replace 'username' with your username). Note there is no ~ character in paths.
CGI base path for accounts created after middle of February 2002:- /home3/username/public_html/
(replace 'username' with your username). Note there is no ~ character in paths.
SSI base URL/absolute path:- /~username/
(replace 'username' with your username). Note the inclusion of the ~ character.
