okay didn't know extactly where to put this, but it is about hosting so ill try to be clear as i can.

Okay couple days go i have this site i work on with a ubb, my problem is that if i wanna upload any other cgi file it get a Internal Server Error, even if i upload a fresh UBB or hello world cgi file. so i just said okay ill just leave it how it currently is. But now we move to a faster line since he got a new job at a different isp and is hosting there with a different box. But we are still receiving this same error. with any cgi file, weird thing is that if i move the current ubb we have set up it will work, but no new cgi or any other type of files.

So today i decided to take a look at the log file after i run the hello.cgi file supplied with the ubb. It showed:

[Sat Oct 12 20:52:31 2002] [error] [client *.*.*.*] File does not exist: /var/www/html/spacer.gif
[Sat Oct 12 20:53:13 2002] [error] (2)No such file or directory: exec of /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.cgi failed
[Sat Oct 12 20:53:13 2002] [error] [client *.*.*.*] Premature end of script headers: /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.cgi
[Sat Oct 12 20:53:15 2002] [error] (2)No such file or directory: exec of /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.cgi failed
[Sat Oct 12 20:53:15 2002] [error] [client *.*.*.*] Premature end of script headers: /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.cgi
[Sat Oct 12 20:53:32 2002] [error] [client *.*.*.*] attempt to invoke directory as script: /var/www/cgi-bin
[Sat Oct 12 20:53:37 2002] [error] [client *.*.*.*] attempt to invoke directory as script: /var/www/cgi-bin
[Sat Oct 12 20:56:16 2002] [error] (2)No such file or directory: exec of /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.cgi failed
[Sat Oct 12 20:56:16 2002] [error] [client *.*.*.*] Premature end of script headers: /var/www/cgi-bin/hello.cgi

so anyone know why the server is doing this, the server runs redhat 8 i'm sure with apache Apache/1.3.23 not sure what version of perl

ohh and yes i chmoded the files correctly, uploaded in acsii, perl path is correct
ohh and if this is hte wrong forum could someone kindly move it for me thnx.
