I can't answer the "file:///C1" error question, but I'd gotten the message 'The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL' (as a 405 Server error) until I added the single line:
ScriptAlias /mck-cgi/ /home/httpd/html/mck-cgi/
to my httpd.conf.  This allows CGI scripts addressed as http://mydomain.com/mck-cgi/whatever to run out of the ....html/mck-cgi directory.
The below had already been added to the httpd.conf.
<Directory /home/httpd/html/mck-cgi>
    AllowOverride None
    Options ExecCGI
    Order allow,deny
    Allow from all
</Directory>
so it was insufficient.
