Thanks. It is finding and executing the scripts. (Can put in a print statement before the system() command and see the results on a web browser calling the script.
Both the 2.0 and 2.2 apaches are using mod_cgi. In 2.0 it is built in and in 2.2 there's a LoadModule statement for it in httpd.conf.
But: mod_suexec is loaded in 2.2 and not loaded or built in in 2.0.This is a difference I hadn't thought about or even known about. I don't really know about suexec or how it should be configured, but it looks like it could be close to my problems. Thanks for the pointer.

Are you running mod_cgi or mod_cgid? Did you build with suexec? --------------------------------------------------------------------- The official User-To-User support forum of the Apache HTTP Server Project.
