Does users.cgi have execute permissions, and does it belong to the right user and group? BTW, did you use the test scripts I provided? http://www.howtoforge.com/forums/showthread.php?t=171
Will try the test script but maked simulair script only called test.cgi but also not worked i did chmod 755 on all the cgi files and directory's in the cgi-bin folder. maybe problem is that i have to make the file with VI instead of ftping it because that is on my other server also a problem i have to make every file with vi but i gues it is not smart to give everyone ssh access to the server?
You should make sure that you save the Perl file with Unix line breaks, not Windows line breaks. Maybe that causes the error.
Yeah thank u very much i found the error, 1 i wasn't uploading in right format (very noobies) 2 it was full of windows line breaks. But it is now working as intended thnx for reply falko
Premature end of script headers Somebody could give me the exact definition of this "Premature end of script headers", because that prevents me from sleeping, because I would like to have myself, how, I could arrange this problem. MM
