1 & 1 and Network Settings

[Admin]

Hi there,

Please Help.

We are hosting a domain with 1 & 1. Whenever I try to run the Configure Web Site wizard it crashes once it gets to the FTP Directory and www root directory bit. I tried to change the network settings manually. But it keeps on coming up with the following errors.

"Catalog is not able to run the CGI Scripts on the server. It appears as if the scripts are not installed".

2nd Error

"The web server returned error code 404 - Requested URL not found. This means Catalog can't execute the CGI Scripts on your website".

Please can someone give me the correct network settings for 1 & 1.

Thank you very much.

These worked for me on 1&1 Business. They won't work on any of the cheaper 1&1 packages as they don't support own cgi programs:-

If you copy and save the chunk above to a textfile you can import it into your network setting via Advanced / Network / Import. Then just change mysite.com for whatever you're using and fill in your FTP usrname and password.

And here's a 1&1 Professional site with a sub domain secure.mysite.com pointing at / and set to use the 1&1 SSL.
