CGI debugging - 500 Internal Server Error

[saranjegan]

Hello,

Am running a CGI script programmed in C in my apache server , the code is throwing some sorts of error with 500 internal server error , from error log i came to know its premature end of script headers when am supposed to troubleshoot it with various resources such as checking the script headers i can' t able to overcome it , i faced same problem with some example program in books too(even hello world), so i made the same program in perl surprisingly it works fine , what might be the reason ?

500 errors are server related and I doubt they are caused by your script. I would investigate as to whether your web server or even your firewall is allowing you access. If you go to a website and get a 500 error than that typically means that someone on the server side has some work to do.

I would ask C questions in the C forum, not the perl forum.

He he, I didn't even notice. I just read the word CGI and went from there.

Moving thread from the Perl Forum to the C Forum. The Apache Forum might be a better destination yet.

I think this is not a perl question , Its more related to CGI program in C not in perl
