Hello,
I create a little executable plugin (writen in C).
I develop under windows so I use Hiawatha for windows
I'm a newby in web server setting and I don't understand how to configure Hiawatha to understand to execute my plugin.
The name of my plugin is slt_plugin.exe

The configuration part to declare for CGI part :

# COMMON GATEWAY INTERFACE (CGI) SETTINGS
# These settings can be used to run CGI applications.
#
#CGIhandler = C:\Program Files\PHP5\php-cgi.exe:php
#CGIhandler = INSTALL_DIR\program\ssi-cgi.exe:shtml
CGIhandler = INSTALL_DIR\slat_plugin\slt_plugin.exe:slt
CGIextension = exe

In my Html page, I want to execute slt_plugin and I call in Ajax :
loadXMLDoc("/slt_plugin.slt?portstate.slt", processUpdate, 0);

Can anyone help me please ? I test a lot of solution but my plugin does'nt launch by Hiawatha ?
Thanks for your help

Did you add the following directive as well:

VirtualHost {
    ...
    ExecuteCGI = yes
}

Thank you Joe,

I don't use the Virtual Host, I use the default web site zone. I test to use Virtual Host, perhaps this is my error.
When I find the error, I will post the solution for other people.

Hello,
I test with a virtual host in hiawatha.conf and Hiawatha doesn't want to start my plugin. I give the entire config file :

# Hiawatha main configuration file
#
set INSTALL_DIR = CONFIG_DIR\..


# GENERAL SETTINGS
#
ConnectionsTotal = 150
ConnectionsPerIP = 10
SystemLogfile = INSTALL_DIR\logfiles\system.log
GarbageLogfile = INSTALL_DIR\logfiles\garbage.log
ExploitLogfile = INSTALL_DIR\logfiles\exploit.log
PIDfile = INSTALL_DIR\work\hiawatha.pid
WorkDirectory = INSTALL_DIR\work

#

	Port = 80

}
#
#Binding {
#	Port = 443
#	Interface = ::1
#	MaxKeepAlive = 30
#	TimeForRequest = 3,20
#	TLScertFile = INSTALL_DIR\config\hiawatha.pem
#}


# BANNING SETTINGS

#CGIextension = exe

# DEFAULT WEBSITE

Hostname = 10.1.3.76
WebsiteRoot = INSTALL_DIR\htdocs
StartFile = index.html
AccessLogfile = INSTALL_DIR\logfiles\access.log
ErrorLogfile = INSTALL_DIR\logfiles\error.log

VirtualHost {
    Hostname = 127.0.0.1
    WebsiteRoot = INSTALL_DIR\htdocs
	AccessLogfile = INSTALL_DIR\logfiles\accessvirtual.log
	ErrorLogfile = INSTALL_DIR\logfiles\errorvirtual.log
	ExecuteCGI = yes
	TimeForCGI = 10
}

In my Html page, I want to execute slt_plugin and I call in Ajax :
loadXMLDoc("/portstate.slt", processUpdate, 0);

It's very strange because I think there is a little problem but I can't solve it myself...
