I moved a working web site to a new server and my cgi scripts all return
error 500 when opened with a browser. PHP scripts work calling to the same
database with same user, host, password.

The site lives in the /home/app/public_html tree with subs php/ and
cgi-bin/ and is a internal school site behind a firewall.

I've debugged all the scipts and they run fom the command line.

set permissions to 755, tried chown apache.apache and root.root from
original user.user

even unhooked the machine from the intranet and set all
/home/app/public_html/cgi-bin to 777 recursively.

mandrake 9.0
apache 1.3.26 - running
perl 5.8.0 - running
mysql 3.23.52 - running

What must I include in my httpd.conf?

Cheers

Which part of the answer to PerlFAQ9 ("perldoc -q 500"):
    "My CGI script runs from the command line but not the browser.  (500
Server Error)"
 is unclear and requires improvements?

A typical 500 page says "Please contact the server administrator."

The server administrator typically looks in the server logs to find
the cause of the error.

Use the logs, Luke.

Then try:

(The first hit on Google for perldoc, BTW.)

This newsgroup doesn't respond to questions in the FAQ's, especially not 
this one that gets asked a bazillion times.  We're here to discuss Perl, 
not web server configuration and permissions over and over.

Did a search for perldoc on the web. Found the troubleshooting guide,
located the suexec.log on my server and all is fixed. Thanks All
It was a permissions issue linked with suexec.

Try "perldoc" instead (case may matter depending on your OS).
If you still can't find it then kick that admin of yours in his extended

I don't understand what you are getting at.

It's fundamental to the concept of "use strict" that it doesn't change
the syntax (or semantics) of any valid Perl program; it just causes
some otherwise valid programs to be rejected.

So what sort of change did you have in mind?

I consider a program that recently compiled and now fails to compile due
to strictures a significant change in semantics.

There's no way to tell.
The behavior depends on how the web server is coded and its
configuration settings.  That info is not part of the HTTP response.

The response from a web server might even be generated on the fly and not
relate to any file at all.
Or it might be remapped to any name by the server. There is no way for the
client to tell.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Perl to begin with.

Your question is not Perl related, but anyway...

some responses include a 'Content-Location' header telling you the file 
name. i.e:

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Date: Sun, 02 Mar 2003 10:36:24 GMT
Server: Apache/1.3.27 (Unix)

Err, no.    It'll split into "some" and "other".   To get your effect,
you'd need

   ($fname, $pextension) = split(/\./, $of, 2);

(But of course that's irrelevant to the superior alternative code
you suggest.)

Good thinking, but that won't properly handle three or more tabs in a row.

    $str =~ s/\t(?=\t)/\t?/g

will do the job.

try that with \t\t\t. it doesn't insert ? in the second slot.
but a lookahead fixes that:


	$str =~ s/\t(?=\t)/\t?/g;

I just upgraded my IndigoPerl installation, i.e. I downloaded and 
extracted a .zip file and run setup.bat. It gave me (on my W98 PC):

- Apache, including mod_perl, + documentation
- Perl 5.8 + documentation (in HTML)
- PHP

  Apparently  when i do

  and inside the script i have


  $in = shift ;

  print $in



  i get

  string

  ( without the ' ' )

  The same is true when the input is "string".

  In other words , the shell strip both '' and "".

  How do i pass on the exact input without the stripping?

Well, on some systems, like flavors of un*x.  It actually depends on

The join was exactly the technique I was looking for.  Learn something every

You have posted a job posting or a resume in a technical group.

Longstanding Usenet tradition dictates that such postings go into
groups with names that contain "jobs", like "misc.jobs.offered", not
technical discussion groups like the ones to which you posted.

Had you read and understood the Usenet user manual posted frequently to
"news.announce.newusers", you might have already known this. :)  (If
n.a.n is quieter than it should be, the relevent FAQs are available at
http://www.faqs.org/faqs/by-newsgroup/news/news.announce.newusers.html)
Another good source of information on how Usenet functions is
news.newusers.questions (information from which is also available at
http://www.geocities.com/nnqweb/).

Please do not explain your posting by saying "but I saw other job
postings here".  Just because one person jumps off a bridge, doesn't
mean everyone does.  Those postings are also in error, and I've
probably already notified them as well.

If you have questions about this policy, take it up with the news
administrators in the newsgroup news.admin.misc.

http://jobs.perl.org may be of more use to you

Yours for a better usenet,

dha

As you all seem to have spotted I inexplicably substituted Param for Vars in
my previous posting, I was obviously in too much of a hurry to get out for
the evening! Thanks for answering the question I had meant to ask!

Administrivia:

The Perl-Users Digest is a retransmission of the USENET newsgroup
comp.lang.perl.misc.  For subscription or unsubscription requests, send
the single line:

	subscribe perl-users
or:
	unsubscribe perl-users

to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu.  

To submit articles to comp.lang.perl.announce, send your article to
clpa@perl.com.

To request back copies (available for a week or so), send your request
to almanac@ruby.oce.orst.edu with the command "send perl-users x.y",
where x is the volume number and y is the issue number.

For other requests pertaining to the digest, send mail to
perl-users-request@ruby.oce.orst.edu. Do not waste your time or mine
sending perl questions to the -request address, I don't have time to
answer them even if I did know the answer.
