If only it were so easy... It's not the apache process that runs the program - apache forks a new process to run the program. So it's the forked prog that gets the signal, not apache. Apache is just listening for output from the program and produces the canonical error message if it doesn't get a recognisable CGI header. ScriptLog gives you a bit more information on what's happening and you can always add more verbose debug to your program if you're really stuck (eg, have the prog write to it's own log). > > -- > Best regards, > saf > This message is for the named person's use only.
