Hey.

Looks like your file manager requires your server to be able to execute Perl scripts, but yours doesn't seem to be able to do that. So, rather than process the Perl script like it's supposed to, it just sends it to you.

You should go over the installation instructions again. You probably missed the part about adding the mod_perl2 extension to Apache, or the part where you add a CGI handler for the "pl" extension.

I looked into it and it seems that the host i use (LCN.com) does use perl scripts, unfourtunatly the file manager doesnt have much documentation to get it up and running.

Well, in the README.TXT file they do tell you how to enable Perl scripts for a directory:

*** CONFIGURING APACHE2 ***

In the vhost container for the site which will contain relay, you will need
to grant the relay folder +ExecCGI and AllowOverride All.

<Directory "/path/to/relay/">
   AllowOverride All
   Options +ExecCGI
   AddHandler cgi-script cgi pl
</Directory>

Remember to reload Apache after making the changes to your vhost.

If your host doesn't allow you access to the required config files, you could try dropping the AddHandler line by itself into a .htaccess file in the root of your project.

tried your way atli and although it doesn't try to download the .pl file no more i just get the 404 not found in error console even tho it is pointing at the correct directory,

error console:


8Refused to set unsafe header "Connection"
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found) my.site/test/ftp2/relay/upload.pl?756804956525ca0239938492b3db14dc
