Description

Guys - I'm looking to add some software to my mythweb that is a perl script (ends in .cgi) but I can't use it because /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf has .cgi files handled by /bin/bash. Is this intended and is it needed for somehting? Will there be any ill-effects if I change the line to allow /usr/bin/perl to handle .cgi files?

#### CGI module cgi.assign = ( ".pl" => "/usr/bin/perl", ".cgi" => "'/bin/bash")

It's not an error, it is intended, and for your purpose it's safe to change it. LinHES doesn't actually make use of that type cgi yet but it's coming done the road.
