Have you looked at /var/log/apache/cgi.log (is that where they're still kept?). This logs problems with suEXEC. Also, keep in mind that suEXEC is really skittish. The script and the *directory* that it's in must be owned by the user and group-owned by the user's primary group (although I've hacked mine to allow it to run scripts owned by root as well). Neither the directory nor the script can be world-writable. It can't be a symlink. It can't be setuid. You really need to look at cgi.log, however, to see what's got it so upset. - Joe
