I've just started learning Python, and I'm pretty lost right now. I want to run my script on my server that is hosted through hosting24.com. Their FAQ says they support Python, but I have no clue where to put my script for it to run.
There is a folder called cgi-bin in my root, I'm guessing that is where I put my script? Can someone explain to me how this works?
Very simply, you can rename your Python script to "pythonscript.cgi".
Post that in your cgi-bin directory, add the appropriate permissions and browse to it.
This is a great link you can start with.
Here's another good one.
Hope that helps.
