Default cgi-bin permissions, FormMail trouble...

Hi,
(Sorry if this is indeed the wrong forum for such a question) I have installed the formail.pl script on my website which has been working fine for several months. Recently it has stopped working giving the error - 405 method not allowed. Did a bit of research, and seeing as i had altered none of the relavant files to this script, thought it might be something to do with the permissions on my cgi-bin, or the formail.pl file. The permissions turn out to be set to cgi-bin = 755, FormMail.pl = 700. I have tried changing the value of the script to 755 (not sure if this was correct anyway) but don't have the permission myself... Can't understand whats happened, the only thing i can think of is my web hosts informing they've changed servers - not sure how this would affect things.

Thanks for any help.

Barney.

No problem i moved your post.

Yeah i would check with the web host, sounds like they changed something try a google search for "error - 405 method not allowed" see what comes up, theres nothing you cant find on the web.

Hey,
Yeh i did have a little scan on google, i'm pretty sure this is what led me to conclude that the problem was to do with permissions; i'll delve further though and try asking my hosts.

Thanks,
Barney.
