.htaccess file:

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks
Add ExecCGI
Options Indexes FollowSymLinks ExecCGI
AddHandler cgi-script .py .cgi
DirectoryIndex index.py

i tried with chmod but same problem :( help me please

Answer 1

Options Indexes FollowSymLinks would override Options ExecCGI. To resolve this use Options +ExecCGI and also add SetHandler cgi-script
