/usr/bin/perl, since it is not in the chroot jail
Is apache finding the perl script or is perl not finding what it wants to run the script.
Perl is not being found- it can't be, since apache (annd, by extention, the CGI's run under it) is chrooted to /var/www
Have you had perl scripts running without errors in the past?
Nope. At least, not through the webserver. Never tried before. Perl scripts are running fine on the system level
When you try running the test.cgi script does apache / your browser find it and try to run it, if apache does find it and it does start then is it perl that is if failing to run the script because it is misconfigured in some way?
Apache finds it and tries to run it, but as with the main script, it can't find /usr/bin/perl

If that line can't be removed, then apparently I can't run perl scripts under Apache with Apache chrooted, even with mod_perl running properly- is that correct? or do I just need to change that line to something else? On the brighter side, changing the LoadModule line as suggested did allow the config directives to load properly. Didn't help get the script to run though.----------------------------------------------- Israel Brewster Computer Support Technician Frontier Flying Service INC. 5245 Airport Industrial Rd Fairbanks, AK 99709 ----------------------------------------------- On Jan 10, 2007, at 2:35 PM, Serge Dubrouski wrote:Do not remove #!/usr/bin/perl line!
