I had 755 set, but I tried 777 as well on the scripts. As for the directory, it is physically located under my public_html directory in my ~, and I use .htaccess with addhandler cgi-script .pl As user www-data i can execute the script.
Scriptlog doesn't give me anything we didn't already know: %% [Tue Sep 25 15:58:57 2007] GET /cgi-bin/test.pl HTTP/1.1 %% 500 /home/nick/public_html/cgi-bin/test.pl I was using apt, but there is no log in /var/log/dpkg.
