Server Side Include problems

Vote 0 Votes

I have this page, published statically as an .htm, that must include a little piece of text that comes from another site. To download the page and process the output i use a little Ruby script. The body of the page contains some text and the this:

<!--#include virtual="/cgi-bin/script.rb" -->

Everything works fine until i try to publish the page with Movable Type. When I hit the publish button Apache tells me:

Method Not Implemented
POST to /cgi-bin/mt/mt.cgi not supported.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a mt bug?

  • Looks like mod_security (or some sort of server-side filter) is preventing you from posting that content to the MT script. You can configure mod_security to be disabled for specific URLs, such as /cgi-bin/mt/mt.cgi since the app requires authentication anyway.

If you need to share template code, replace all the "<" signs with "&lt;" or use this utility.
