cgi mail scripts not working

Hi Folks,

I'm relatively "non-nerdy" and don't have a whole lot of background with VM.

I'm trying to get a mail script to work (Perl, "formmail.pl").

I put it in a folder named "cgi-bin" under my web root, chmod'd to 755, but I still get an error:

Not Found

The requested URL /cgi-bin/FormMail.pl was not found on this server.

Apache/2.2.3 (CentOS) Server

in VM, under SERVICES > CONFIGURE WEBSITE > DOCUMENT OPTIONS, there's an "execute CGI programs" option under DIRECTORY OPTIONS, which I enabled "yes", but no effect.

also not sure about the path to sendmail or the path to Perl ...?

thanks for any suggestions,

Gary
