@soso,

Here are a few steps you can take to troubleshoot and resolve the issue:

• Verify that the PHP and Perl CGI binaries (php-cgi and perl) are executable and located in the specified paths (/usr/bin/php-cgi and /usr/bin/perl).
• Create a simple PHP script (e.g., test.php) with in it and place it in your web root directory (/usr/local/var/www/hiawatha) to test if PHP is executing correctly.
• Similarly, create a simple Perl CGI script (e.g., test.cgi) with #!/usr/bin/perl as the shebang line and print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; print "Hello, Perl!"; in it, and place it in the same directory to test Perl execution.
• After making any changes to the configuration files or scripts, restart the Hiawatha and PHP-FPM services to apply the changes.

Let me know if you need further assistance or if you encounter any other issues.

My environment: Ubuntu 22.04.4 LTS / hiawatha-11.1 / php 8.1 (php-cgi/php-fpm)

Currently hiawatha is running and localhost page is displayed.

And command (php -v / systemctl status php8.1-fpm.service …etc.) have been successful.

However, the php pages and perl cgi pages are downloaded instead of being displayed.

I already have been running hiawatha/php7 on Puppy (Fossapup64) and referenced the hiawatha.conf on Puppy.

The current hiawatha.conf is as follows.

Please give me some advice on how to run php/perl on the server?
