Do I have the wrong Python Shebang? - The python file has the permissions: 7,5,5 - Following VlexoFrees advice I have looked at my .htaccess file & its empty so it cant be misconfigured(although maybe I need to configure it for python scripts?) - I have looked at the CPanel error logs but the 500 error isn't documented, it does show/record errors if I try to access the cgi-bin dir, ie, I go to www.selectrecipes.tk/cgi-bin/ - The python file should simply print out: "test" The file is here: http://www.selectrec...cgi-bin/test.py The contents of the file are simply: #!/usr/bin/python2.7 print "content-type: text/html \n\n" print "test" Edited January 21, 2012 by mishmash Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Eli L 132 VlexoFree Owner Owner 132 9,096 posts LocationWashington, USA Posted January 22, 2012 · Report post The path is /usr/bin/python [/CODE] Click your test link again and it works.
