I am trying to install this script for a subdomain. I followed the instructions but am unsure if I did something wrong.

 

These are the instructions I followed:

 

1. Edit "address" value in the <APPLET> tag in the chat.html.

e.g.

 

<param name=address value="/cgi-bin/chat.pl">

 

*I edited it as follows:

 

<param name=address value="="public_html/iperoth/cgi-bin/chat.pl">

 

 

2. Edit the Config section in the chat.pl file.

e.g.

 

$path = "/cgi-bin/chat/data/"; Path to the directory,

where the datafiles will be located.

 

* I did as follows:

$path = "/public_html/iperoth/cgi-bin/chat/data/";

 

3. Copy the files chat.html, chat.jar to Web server directory .

e.g. /chat/chat.html

chat.jar

 

*I copied those files to my subdomains main directory

 

4. Copy file chat.pl to Web server directory where cgi-perl allowed.

e.g. /cgi-bin/chat.pl

 

chat.pl scripts should be chmoded to 775.

 

*File copied to /public_html/iperoth/cgi-bin

 

5. Create the directory which is set in variable "$path" this directory should be chmoded 777

 

*Did as instructed

 

6. Open in the browser the following page:

 

http://yourwebsite/chat/chat.html

 

 

*upon doing so it wont connect to the server.. Please help.
