Internal Server Error
Here is a short explanation of the possible causes of one very common
CGI error message:
"Internal Server Error - The server encountered an internal error
or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request."
Possible causes include:
- Script was not uploaded in ASCII mode. If you are using FTP to
transfer your scripts to the web server, ensure that your FTP
program is set to upload scripts in ASCII rather than binary.
- Execute permission not set (on Unix or Linux).
Many FTP programs have options for CHMOD or adjusting permissions.
If your FTP program is WS_FTP from Ipswitch
,
select the file on the server, right click on it, and select chmod.
Scripts need 755 permissions:
-
Owner: Read, Write, Execute
-
Group: Read, Execute
-
Other: Read, Execute
- Wrong interpreter path (on Unix or Linux). The first line of
your script must be set to the interpreter path. This is normally
#!/usr/bin/perl
, but could be
#!/usr/local/bin/perl
or maybe something else.ing else.
- Error in the CGI code. This could be anything!
