Hi Kevin, |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
After saving your script to /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/makeindex.perl |
| 24 |
and running "chmod +x ...", I pointed firefox at |
| 25 |
http://localhost/cgi-bin/makeindex.perl and got the following: |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Internal Server Error |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and |
| 30 |
was unable to complete your request. |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
Please contact the server administrator, root@localhost and inform |
| 33 |
them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have |
| 34 |
done that may have caused the error. |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
More information about this error may be available in the server |
| 37 |
error log. |
| 38 |
|
| 39 |
Looking in /var/log/apache2/error_log I found |
| 40 |
|
| 41 |
[Wed Jul 04 10:22:06 2007] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] malformed |
| 42 |
header from script. Bad header=<head><title>Index of /usr/sha: |
| 43 |
makeindex.perl |
| 44 |
|
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
Looking at other simple scripts lead me to add |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
print "Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1\n\n"; |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
All is good now! |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Cheers, |
| 53 |
