Sean,here is my error server log: http://pastebot.nd.edu/127?tx=on&submit=Format+it%21Edward,
Did you look at the server log?
Also, is you hello.pl script written as a handler or straight cgi script?
I am not sure. How can I check that? I just simply write a perl code like normal where you can execute under command line like this: $ perl test.pl
with _"print 'hello\n";_ in it And just the code under /var/www/cgi-bin
Hopefully, you have had a chance to look at some of the documentation that others have suggested. Also, CGI scripts have to have a special output format. They need to include headers telling the server/browser what to do with the output. Your best bet is to follow the documentation step-by-step to make sure that the server is doing what you think before writing your own scripts.
As for your error_log/config files, it appears that you do need to tell your server where your cgi-bin is, as noted elsewhere. Also, you need to change permissions and chmod on all your scripts so they can be run by the server. Those "permission denied" errors often imply a script that does not have correct access and execute privileges set.
Sean
You don't need modperl to run straight cgi scripts. Some other folks may notice problems with the config files....Should I change my httpd.conf here: http://paste.phpfi.com/48067
OR
my httpd2.perl.conf here: http://paste.phpfi.com/48068
Hope to hear from you again.
