(ss) Why don't CGIs work with the shared SSL certificate?

  • Applies to: (ss)

  • Difficulty: Easy

  • Time needed: 5 minutes

  • Tools needed: None

 
CGI scripts will not work when using the free SSL certificate.

For security reasons, CGI scripts are not able to be run when using the free SSL certificate that came with your service. You can still use php for scripting and you can also still use htaccess web authentication.

NOTES:

If you would like to purchase a SSL certificate through (mt) Media Temple please see this KB article.
