Internal Server Error Cgi-bin Apache
it works: Anybody can ask a question Anybody can answer The best answers are voted up and rise to the top Why does my Perl CGI script raise an internal server error on Apache? up vote 1 down vote favorite I've installed apache2 on Ubuntu 11.04, and localhost is working. I created a simple printenv.pl script and put it in the apache cgi-bin 500 internal server error following directory $ mv printenv.pl /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ $ chmod +rx /usr/lib/cgi-bin/printenv.pl However when I go to http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/printenv.pl, I get a 500 Internal Server Error I checked the error log at /var/log/apache2, and this is what it says: [Mon Oct 24 11:04:25 2011] [error] (13)Permission denied: exec of '/usr/lib/cgi-bin/printenv.pl' failed [Mon Oct 24 11:04:25 2011] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] Premature end of script headers: printenv.pl Any suggestions on how I can fix this and run CGI scripts on my localhost? apache2 perl webapp-development share|improve this question edited Jan 10 '12 at 3:58 Jjed 9,39055385 asked Oct 24 '11 at 15:15 itcplpl 613 add a comment| 2 Answers 2 active oldest votes up vote 2 down vote I had this problem as well. It turned out that I had set the .pl files permissions to 775. Apache does not allow user writable. Try changing your .pl file permissions to 755. If that isn't it, check your web site permission settings in /etc/apache2/sites-available. share|improve this answer edited Jan 7 '12 at 2:25 James♦ 30.9k42131224 answered Jan 6 '12 at 4:36 John 212 add a comment| up

I can execute .pl files in the “cgi-bin” folder but not .cgi files, not even a super simple .cgi file. Apache2 log error message: (13)Permission denied: exec of '/usr/lib/cgi-bin/test.cgi' failed Premature end of script headers: test.cgi I read through this tutorial: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/how...html#errorlogs Information: Windows Azure VM with Root Access Ubuntu Server 12.04 with desktop installed Perl is installed here: /usr/bin/perl Apache2 is installed PHP5 is installed There is no suexec in the /usr/lib/apache2 folder which is where this command says that apache looks for the file: Code: apachectl -V Permissions on /usr/lib/cgi-bin are 755 Apache VirtualHost file: Code: ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ of questions I get from my visitors at thesitewizard.com, I can see that one of the most dreaded errors that newcomers to CGI face is the "500 Internal Server Error". It is one of the most uninformative error messages that can http://www.thesitewizard.com/archive/servererror.shtml mean anything from an improper upload to a bug in the script. This article attempts to give you some concrete, practical steps that you can take to narrow down the problem and hopefully eliminate it. For the uninitiated, http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1464728/internal-server-error-500-in-simple-cgi-script a "500 Internal Server Error" is a message much like the common "404 File Not Found" message. You get the latter message in your browser when you try to access a non-existent web page. You get the "500 internal server Internal Server Error" message when you try to run a script with problems. For the purposes of this article, I am assuming that your CGI script is a Perl script, by far the most commonly available on the Internet. We will try to eliminate the most common errors first (and the easiest-to-eliminate ones): Location Did you upload your scripts into the right place? This is not as obvious as it may seem. Some servers are configured internal server error to run your CGI scripts anywhere. Others will only run it when it is installed in a particular directory. It is not just a matter of creating a "cgi-bin" directory — for example, some hosts configure the server so that it will run scripts only from a particular directory outside the web directory structure (for security reasons). Your web page will still call the script "/cgi-bin/script.pl" but the server maps it to the actual directory. You will have to upload it in the right directory, regardless of what your web page calls it. Find out such information from your web host's documentation. File Upload Mode Did you upload your Perl script in ASCII mode? Your FTP client may have uploaded the script in binary mode if you did not take any special action. Perl scripts are ASCII files, and since different operating systems have different ways of representing the end of line character (eg Unix uses a line-feed, Windows uses a carriage-return and line-feed pair), it is important that you set the uploading method to ASCII, so that line-end translation is performed. Re-upload the script, this time making sure that it was uploaded in Text or ASCII mode. Do not use any auto-detection options since the FTP program might assume the extensions you are using for your scripts are for binary files.
