My cgi-bin not working

I am using Plesk 7.5.4

Okay this may be a stupid question because i am completely new to cgi
stuf

but my cgi-bin is located
/home/httpd/vhosts/my-domain-name.net/cgi-bin/

and not /home/httpd/vhosts/my-domain-name.net/httpdocs/cgi-bin/ where i
expected it to be.

I have a virtual host server running multiple domain names

On one of my domain names after hours of playing around and managed to
get something working.

Should it be possible to simply make a folder called cgi-bin or not
my-domain-name.net/httpdocs/cgi-bin/

I have some CGI scripts I want to use but thay require you to directly
link to CGI script in the cgi-bin

folder

Like www.my-domain-name.net/cgi-bin/apf4/apf_config.cgi


ok me being me I thought I could simply get round the problem my
creating a folder called cgi-bin set it

to 755 and simply get it working. Like this /httpdocs/cgi-bin/

but that did not work I just got error messages like 403 and 500 and
stuff

So for some reason I thought I would rename it to cgi-bin2 and hay
presto it worked.

see
http://old-classic-cars.co.uk/cgi-bin2/apf4/amazon_products_feed.cgi

so I thought I would try my luck an get it working on a different
domain name on the same server but no

luck all I get is server error 500

Any suggestions

Thank You
Adrian Eyre
