Try running the script from the command line: [user@COMPUTER user]$ perl -w mycgiscript.pl
(or .cgi, or whatever) I'd also try changing the first line to #!/usr/bin/perl -w If nothing else, it should give you some more instructive error messages. For what it's worth, I was able to run the program successfully on a FreeBSD system. If the script turns out to be fine, then go back to adjusting the directory settings for Apache. > I have tested and successfully run the script on a windows machine with > Apache and activestate perl.
