Why am I getting a Permission Denied error ?
CGI scripts need to be set as executable files. You need to change the mode, or permissions, of your programs with your FTP program, to 755 (rwxr-xr-x). Important Note: A lot of scripts may instruct you to set your script's mode to 775(rwxrwxr-x) or even 777 (rwxrwxrwx). We strongly, strongly advise that you don't do this. These permissions will permit anyone on the server to write to your script, leaving you vulnerable to hackers who could deface your site, delete it, or worse!
