Hi,
I have downloaded the trial version of CMS Builder nad followed the upload instructions.
I am having trouble in step number 6 .
I entered all the details in the http://www.example.com/cmsAdmin/admin.php and click Finish I get the following error message
Security Alert! The PHP CGI cannot be accessed directly.
This PHP CGI binary was compiled with force-cgi-redirect enabled. This means that a page will only be served up if the REDIRECT_STATUS CGI variable is set, e.g. via an Apache Action directive.
For more information as to why this behaviour exists, see the [url "http://php.net/security.cgi-bin"]manual page for CGI security[/#810081][/url].
For more information about changing this behaviour or re-enabling this webserver, consult the installation file that came with this distribution, or visit [url "http://php.net/install.windows"]the manual page[/#810081][/url].
Please help us to solve this and evaluate the trail software
Thanks

HI Aravind, welcome to the forum!
A few questions:
1) What version of PHP do you have?
2) Do you manage the server or is it with a web hosting provider?
3) Do you have any other PHP scripts running on the server?
I think this is something to do with how PHP is installed on your server. If you'd like I can login and take a look to see if it's something we can fix or workaround in the software. If you'd like me to do that you can email ftp login details to dave@interactivetools.com (email only - don't post in forum).
Other than that let me know the answers on the questions and we'll see what we can figure out.
Hope that helps.

Hi Aravind,
I sent you a reply via email. But for anyone else who has a similar problem and reads this in future. The program was having trouble finding itself and was linking to the wrong place. I added a patch to fix this and it will be in v1.10.
