busybox httpd cgi cgi-bin

Sun May 4 19:49:32 PDT 2008

hi busybox friends,
 i am trying to have a feel on how cgi is woking on busybox.
 but i still have problem while after i have several try, would anyone
please teach me or give me a pointer so to make it running?
 thank you.

 i have busybox compiled on i686 system running fedora 8 in vmware on winxp.
 i put busybox source in /home/keo/busybox and compile statically with only
httpd. ( i tried a defconfig, but i hope a simplest compile will isolate
problem).

then i mkdir www for webroot and cgi-bin within www.
then i launch with ./busybox httpd -h www -c $PWD/www/httpd.conf

i copy 2 files from internet. www/form-post.html and cgi-bin/test-post
but when i submit in the form-post.html which pass to test-post i get

404 Not Found

        link to busybox for each function they wish to use and BusyBox
        will act like whatever it was invoked as!
