Premature End of Script Error
03/28/04 at 18:47:41

This is the Error that I receive when I try to open the script:

[Sun Mar 28 10:39:26 2004] [error] [client ***.***.**.*] Premature end of script headers: eAuction.pl
[Sun Mar 28 10:39:26 2004] [error] [client ***.***.**.*] failed to open log file /var/log/httpd/suexec_log
[Sun Mar 28 10:39:26 2004] [error] [client ***.***.**.*] fopen: Permission denied

I tried a couple suggestions elsewhere in the forums but can't seem to get anything but a 500 error.

I double checked that I upload in ASCII and CHMOD properly.

I am using version 5.008 of Perl on a Apache/2.0.46 (Red Hat) server using Plesk 7 control panel.

Any suggestions on why I might be receiving this error?

I can't create at root. When at root, my cgi-bin and my httpd (web docs) page are at the same level ( can see the folder for httpd docs and cgi-bin at root). Could this be a problem?

Do I have to manually put the paths in the script?

This is the only thing that I could think of... of maybe my version of perl?

Thanks,
Michael

But you can run the auction by setting the pathes by hand.

My cgi-bin is not a subdirectory of the web dir (httpdocs) it is at the same level to root. At root I see:

-anon_ftp
-cgi-bin
-httpdocs
-httpsdocs
-statistics

I've been trying several differant basepath configs etc and can't get the script to come up.

How do I enter the base paths in the script by hand?

Or do I need to do something else?

Thanks!
