Hi Robert,

Thanks for your help!
I'm logged onto the server as the user that runs Apache and I can run the fcgi start-up script (so I can execute the shebang line) as that user, so Apache should be able to run it, as far as I can see. Right now I don't know where to start looking for the problem. BTW: I can also verify in "ps" that apache is actually running as that user I log in with in.

Frank

      Why does Apache claim myapp_fastcgi.pl <http://myapp_fastcgi.pl>
    doesn't exist when it does?

    If you get this error:

    |FastCGI: can't start server "/tmp/myapp/script/myapp_fastcgi.pl
    <http://myapp_fastcgi.pl>" (pid 15460), execle() failed: No such
    file or directory
    |

    when the file *is* there, and its owner is |nobody|, that's just a
    bad error message from Apache. The real cause is that the shebang
    line in |myapp_fastcgi.pl <http://myapp_fastcgi.pl>| could not be
    executed.


The shebang in one of my projects reads "#!/usr/bin/env perl". Does the Apache user have permissions to execute both "/usr/bin/env" and "perl"?

Can it find "perl" in the PATH? The Apache environment may have a totally different PATH (or none at all).
