Thanks for the reply.
I will add little more information. I can read the web input from the bash script and I have no problem with form data like Name, Address, emal,...etc. When it comes to the file it seems I am only getting just the name.
Why are you doing this? It this a homework problem?
The reason I ask, which we have pointed out to you before, is that bash is not designed to fully support HTTPD requests , natively; and so no serious web developer would be using bash as CGI. Even minor web-based tasks are better left to PHP, Python, node.js (server side javascript) etc.
So, if you are not doing homework, designed to teach you to do something using suboptimal tools and methods, why are you insisting to use the wrong tool for the job?

bb-ack.cgi
BB-ACK.CGI(1) General Commands Manual BB-ACK.CGI(1)
NAME
bb-ack.cgi - Xymon CGI script to acknowledge alerts
SYNOPSIS
bb-ack.cgi?ACTION=action&NUMBER=acknum&DELAY=validity&MESSAGE=text
DESCRIPTION
bb-ack.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the bb-ack.sh CGI wrapper.
bb-ack.cgi is passed a QUERY_STRING environment variable with the ACTION, NUMBER, DELAY and MESSAGE parameters.
PARAMETERS
ACTION is the action to perform. The only supported action is "Ack" to acknowledge an alert.
NUMBER is the number identifying the host/service to be acknowledged. It is included in all alert-messages sent out by Xymon.
DELAY is the time (in minutes) that the acknowledge is valid.
MESSAGE is an optional text which will be shown on the status page while the acknowledgment is active. You can use it to e.g. tell users
not to contact you about the problem, or inform them when the problem is expected to be resolved.
OPTIONS
--no-pin
bb-ack.cgi normally requires the user to enter the acknowledgment code received in an alert message. If you run it with this option,
the user will instead get a list of the current non-green statuses, and he may send an acknowledge without knowing the code.
--no-cookies
Normally, bb-ack.cgi uses a cookie sent by the browser to initially filter the list of hosts presented. If this is not desired, you
can turn off this behaviour by calling bb-ack.cgi with the --no-cookies option. This would normally be placed in the CGI_ACK_OPTS
setting in hobbitcgi.cfg(5)
--env=FILENAME
Loads the environment defined in FILENAME before executing the CGI script.
--debug
Enables debugging output.
FILES
$BBHOME/web/acknowledge_header
HTML header file for the generated web page
$BBHOME/web/acknowledge_footer
HTML footer file for the generated web page
$BBHOME/web/acknowledge_form
Query form displayed when bb-ack.cgi is called with no parameters.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
BBHOME Used to locate the template files for the generated web pages.
QUERY_STRING
Contains the parameters for the CGI script.
BUGS
When using alternate pagesets, hosts will only show up on the acknowledgment page if this is accessed from the primary page in which they
are defined. So if you have hosts on multiple pages, they will only be visible for acknowledging from their main page which is not what you
would expect.
