Does the webserver uid have ownership of this folder and the files within? Under Debian the apache user is called www-data. If the folder/files are owned by another user, the permissions you listed will prevent the perl scripts from executing. It might be a good idea to make sure that there are no extended ACLs getting in the way. Have you had a look in /var/log/apache2/error.log? Usually there are more verbose error messages in there. > > I have verified that at the beginning of the scripts is the following > #!/usr/bin/perl > Make sure that this accurately reflects where perl is installed. At the very least there needs to be a symlink in this location which points to the correct location. You also need to make sure that Apache knows to execute perl scripts. I avoid perl like the plague but I have seen similar issues with PHP when I did not enable and configure the PHP module.
