cgi scripts

Hi all..

I'm very new to apache and perl...

but I'm stuck with a web page that has some

.acgi and .cgi files....

I'm running potato and did an apt-get install apache-perl...

It wiped out my apache and perl seperately....(early installs)

That seemed good...

everything seems good except for those scripts....

These are the changes I made to the default srm.conf and access.conf files...

ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /var/www/Scripts/

...and later down the file....

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi

This is the change in the access.conf:

AllowOverride None

Options ExecCGI FollowSymLinks

</Directory>

I think thats it.....the web page stuff is in /var/www/

and along with some other junk....gifs and such...

the Scripts folder in there has some other folders with other .cgi and .acgi files

kicking around.......

I've checked the permissions.. I think they're fine....

If I try http://localhost/cgi-bin/blahblah.cgi... I get an Internal server error.....

or if I try a couple folders past ..../cgi-bin/............. .cgi same thing....

I'm thinking that the script isn't being executed by perl ...

I figure I'm missing something in my conf files...

gotta hunt through those docs again....

Any help on this matter is greatly appreciated....

Mike
