I am running apache server under Red Hat 6.2. At the moment I am receiving
Error Msg 500: Internal Server
Error while trying to run a perl script. I know the script works because
when the Form Action points to another webserver it works fine.

Looking on the internet I came across some information. One of the things I
did not do was download my scripts as ASCII. So I will try that and see how
it works.

However, I just wanted to know is it possible I am missing something in the
configuration files for apache server?

Thanks,

Andrew P

It could be many things, I suggest you take a look at this document:
http://www.cpan.org/doc/FAQs/cgi/idiots-guide.html

BTW: I see you crossposted this to a Danish and a Japanese newsgroup. I just
want to point out that you should probably be posting to:
news:comp.infosystems.www.authoring.cgi
or
news:comp.infosystems.www.servers.unix

instead. But before you do it, I will point out that this is a FAQ and
you should check the document mentioned, and do a search on
http://www.deja.com/usenet/ before you ask there.
