We have a Plesk CPanel for web hosting.
Fedora 5 LAMP setup.
Two NICs; One to provide a secure web site with dedicated https service.

I need to enable cgi for a site we plan to migrate to this server.
I have a test file that when loaded displays the contents of the script. It is not executing.
I have set the Apache configuration file to execute cgi. I restarted the web server and still find the code not executing.

All I get is a blank page without any error message.

As a Linux admin of recent exposure to the server side of things the independent learning curve is steep, needless to say.
