V5R1 CGI Problem Corrected.

The login and signup scripts are CGI programs. CGI programs use a processing program (QTMHCGI) that is release specific. When we upgraded to V5R1 we forgot to recreate the binding directory used to point the CGI (RPG) programs to the correct program for this operating system version.

To correct the problem we created a new library called V40LBV5R1 to contain all release specific programs. We copied the CGI processor QTMHCGI from QTCP into that library. We then created a binding directory and put a directory entry in to point to the copy we had made in our new library. We then changed all the authorities to all the objects to grant the HTTP server access to the objects it needed. We recompiled the CGI scripts, brought the server up and down and everything works!
