Can't get my perl files to work!!! *Frustrated*

[canstocker]

Hello everyone,

I've written a .cgi file:

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "<H1>Hello World</H1>\n";

I've put it in the cgi-bin folder, and chmoded both the folder and the file with 777.

I try to access it using www.domain.com/cgi-bin/test.cgi - and I get a Internal Server Error...


Any help would be appreciated... Dan.

Try renaming the file test.pl and see if that works?

Hello,
change cgi-bin directory and test.cgi with 755 permissions.
However, probably, the problem occurs during upload: you have to upload
test.cgi in ASCII mode (*NOT* binary mode).

Look at the error log

Go to your cpanel, then click on the "Error Log" icon
The most recent error is usually at the top.

Hope it helps
