RE: Perl / Apache on RH9.0 not working.

1. make sure that the permissions on the file are set correctly (755
typically)
2. make sure that the AddHandler for cgi is set should you be executing
it outside of a scriptasliased directory and that the ExecCGI option is
set for that directory.
3. if you get a 500 error, always check your error_log, it is quite
helpful.

Subject: Perl / Apache on RH9.0 not working.

After a complete re-install of RH to v9.0 I can't get even the simplest
of perl scripts to work in Apache. If I set the bang to -w the script
will work but if it is not set then then I get this:
--------------------------------
Server error!
The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your
request. 
Error message: 
Premature end of script headers: hello.cgi 
If you think this is a server error, please contact the webmaster 
Error 500
[site url]

Apache/2.0.40 (Red Hat Linux)
---------------------------------

The script in question is this:
--------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
#
print <<EOP;
Content-type: text/html

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
	<title>Hello World!</title>
</head>
<body>
<p>Hello World!</p>
</body>
</html>
EOP
--------------------------------

Can't get any simpler than that. So anyone know what's wrong? This is
the first time I"ve used Apache 2.0 so I'm not sure if this is an Apache
or a Perl issue.

Here is the mod_perl info from the server:
