If your hosting account runs Hosting Configuration 2.0, server-side scripts and executables can be uploaded to any directory on your site and are not restricted to run only in the cgi directory. These scripts and executables are any files with the following extensions: .cgi, .pl, and .py.

If your hosting account does not run the new hosting configuration, all scripts and executables must reside in the cgi directory.

To upgrade your hosting account, see How do I upgrade my hosting account to run Hosting Configuration 2.0?.
