uploaded a PERL script into the cgi-bin folder of my Apache2, but whenever I'm trying to run it in my browser I get the error "500 Internal Server Error". Is it something serious? How can I fix it? Any help is greatly appreciated! lola lola, Apr 21, 2005 #1 tylerdurden New Member Is it something serious?Click to expand... Don't worry, it doesn't break your server! I bet the problem is that you didn't make your Perl script https://redmine.lighttpd.net/issues/1256 executable. Try to make a Code: chmod 755 on your Perl script and try to access it in your browser. You always have to make Perl scripts executable! tyler tylerdurden, Apr 21, 2005 #2 lola New Member Yes, that was it, it's working now!

Most of the time it works, but the issue is that from time to time I get 500 internal server error, like the server fails to run the script, though nothing changed and in the 'top' I see that the CPU is idle most of the time. I'm new to web, any ideas? cgi embedded-linux lighttpd share|improve this question asked Feb 500 internal server 19 '13 at 9:43 alexa 429 add a comment| 1 Answer 1 active oldest votes up vote 0 down vote accepted If I were trying to solve this problem I would start with: 1) Look in /var/log/lighttpd/error.log to see what lighttpd is reporting when the failure occurs. 2) Write a very simple CGI-LUA script that does something traceable, like touch a file with the current unixtime as its name, and hit it every 3 seconds instead of your script. This will help you figure out if the problem is in CGI-LUA or in your script. 3) Run your script outside CGI-LUA repeatedly in a loop to see if it ever fails. share|improve this answer answered Sep 30 '13 at 21:18 jdb 51145 add a comment| Your Answer draft saved draft discarded Sign up or log in Sign up using Google Sign up using Facebook Sign up using Email and Password Post as a guest Name Email Post as a guest Name Email discard By posting your answer, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.

The short answer: this is usually a permissions error on your CGI script, which is easy to fix. Go to your FTP client, or your website file manager, and highlight or right-click on the CGI script. Then choose Properties, or Permissions, or "Chmod", and set it to world-executable: that's 0755, or a+rx, or -rwxr-xr-x. Do NOT use 0777 (a+rwx or -rwxrwxrwx). And your cgi-bin directory itself should also be 0755, not 0777. The long answer: when running a Perl CGI script like FileChucker or UserBase, you may see the "Internal Server Error" message in your browser. The message will usually also say something like "please check the server's error-log for more information." You should do that -- the message printed to the error log will often tell you exactly what the problem is. The Apache error log, for example, is often located at /var/log/apache/error_log or /var/log/apache2/error_log (or sometimes "error.log"). If you don't have access to the error log, the next simplest thing to do is to make a backup copy of the script, then open the original and delete all of its contents, and add just these 3 lines to the file: #!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n"; print "testing...\n"; (Note: if the server is a Windows system, then replace the first line above with either #!perl or #!c:\path\to\perl.exe.) Now try to access the page in your browser again. If it works (you see "testing..." as its output) then you know that your server is at least configured properly for running Perl CGI scripts. If it doesn't work, then that may mean the problem is in the server configur
