This is the exact message when I try using the defaulted server address. Any ideas why?
Sorry, I'm confused -- you just pasted the contents of your server's start page. Where was the connection failure coming into the scene?
However, I really was expected to see a couple of lines from a simple perl script. Perhaps I am getting closer, but in many respects I am more confused than previously.
Sorry, you're still describing all these things in a vague way.
We know that you're using Mandrake and Apache.
What is the full path to your script?
What path is Apache using to find scripts?
You're saying that Apache is responding to requests, but you want it to respond to your CGI script. You need to configure it to do this, and you need to give it a URL that correctly translates into the location of a file that Apache knows to serve as a CGI script.
Here's an idea -- please send to the list:
* the location that your script is installed at, such as /usr/local/htdocs/cgi-bin/myscript.pl (or whatever it lives)
* the output from this command, edited to point to your httpd.conf: egrep -i 'cgi|script|perl' /etc/httpd/httpd.conf # (or wherever it is)
This may help narrow things down.
