I'm using Frontpage 2003 toi generate HTML code. I use FormMail to handle the forms on my pages. Recently I was upgraded from Zeus to LiteSpeed and now the forms do not work. The code when in Zeus included "<form method="post" action="/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl">" but now I get the following error
"lscgid: execve():/websites/ra/radschool.org.au/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl: No such file or directory"

Can anyone help??

Can You locate "FormMail.pl" in your server? Just copy it to the location mentioned in the error message.

How is the vhost configured? through Apache httpd.conf? control panel? is radschool.or.au one of the vhost hosted in that server?

If you are using 5.0.1 release, you should force update the latest build.
/usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/lsup.sh -f -v 5.0.1

Understand you migrated your web server from Zeus to LiteSpeed. I never use Zeus but seems it claims to be compatible with Apache HTTP Server (e.g. .htaccess and mod rewrite).

LiteSpeed is the only web server in the industry which can read and run off Apache configuration. Of cause, you can also run LiteSpeed naively without reading Apache configuration.

If you configured Zeus virtual host before and now reconfigured in LiteSpeed, we need to see some details configuration. Also the extra bit /ra/ may be some rewrite rule in your server virtual host config or .htaccess, you need to find it.

Sometimes your configuration may need to change( since Zeus and LiteSpeed are different product. LiteSpeed is 4th popular web server in the world and Apache capable)

If You like can also make it work with Apache firstly then switch to LiteSpeed ( the switch is only a few minutes because LiteSpeed can read Apache configuration) to enjoy the High performance. Any issue with Apache, you have to fix the configuration or code issue.

Better to upgrade to latest versions as well:

Run the following:
/usr/local/lsws/admin/misc/lsup.sh -f -v 5.0.1

We have very comprehensive guild in our wiki.
