    I've 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". :eek:
    Is it something serious? How can I fix it? Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Don't worry, it doesn't break your server!

    I bet the problem is that you didn't make your Perl script 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!
