[Qgis-user] desperately needing help on QGIS server

[Marco Hugentobler]

Dear Kuan Song

This seems to be a problem with your apache fcgi setup. Apache cannot 
find your cgi directory.

Btw. the easiest method to use QGIS server is Sourcepole QGIS cloud 
(www.qgiscloud.com). No need to run your own database and apache 
webserver with this option.

Regards,
Marco
