[PantieZ]

Hi fellas ,

I have a cgi problem with my server (RedHat , Apache 2).
When I start a cgi script I only get a internal server error 500 .
My apache logfiles show:
premature end of script headers .

If you dont get anymore errors in the error.log file, you probably forgot to sent the header :

print CGI::header();

otherwise check the first line in case of a perl file. it should point to your perl binary eg : #!/usr/bin/perl

make sure there's no CRLF on that line

Hope this helps

if you arent using CGI.pm add a

print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n";

to the top of your script this way if any errors generate output you can see them on the web.

also running with CGI and errors enabled helps to display errors to the web.

Switch to PHP... lol

I still love to program in PERL though, it is a very robust language.
