HTTPPostResponseString: You have attempted to execute a CGI, ISAPI, or other executable program from a directory that does not allow programs to be executed.

Symptom:

When you get the error message "HTTP process error" from ErrorString and try to read HTTPPostResponseString, you might get the following error message:

The page cannot be displayed
You have attempted to execute a CGI, ISAPI, or other executable program from a directory that does not allow programs to be executed.

Cause:

This error usually means that it doesn't get proper Execute Permissions to run scripts.

Resolution:

When a new website is created, the value for execute permission might be set to "none". Changing to "Scripts only" will solve the issue.
