I,ve got the Abyss web server working complete and smooth, now. I am now trying to get perl script working on the server. I've read a few books, and i know the basics about writting the script, but i've never been able to get perl to work, no matter what script i use.

I've got WindowsXP, and have followed the Perl instalation instructions on this site to the perverbial "T". It will always come up as:

" Error 500. There is a problem with the page you are trying to reach and it cannot be displayed. "

And all of these wierd errors in the CGI ERROR LOG file.

Exactly what is going wrong with it? :?:

Have you followed our Perl installation guidelines in http://www.aprelium.com/abyssws/perl.html.
Errors you got in the CGI error log may help you also knowing why Perl can't run correctly.
For further help, you can send us the script you use to support@aprelium.com so that we can see what's going wrong.

I finally found what bugged :

this perl script returned an error 500 :

print "coucou";

so i added this line :

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";

and now it works perfectly !!!
