CGI scripts not working

Nicolas

New Pleskian
Hi there,

I have search almost every CGI thread on this forum, and none of them solved my script issue. I can't run CGI scripts.

Help needed...please.

What I have done:

Create a "hello world" cgi script and place it under the "cgi-bin" directory:

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
# hello.pl -- my first perl script!

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "Hello, world!\n";

When I run at "www.peta.cl/cgi-bin/hello.cgi" it shows "500 Internal Server Error"

Errors shows:

Code:
2017-04-10 22:19:19 Error 190.162.219.35 500 GET /cgi-bin/hello.cgi HTTP/1.0  1.56 K Apache access
2017-04-10 22:19:19 Error 190.162.219.35 AH01215: failed to open log file /var/log/apache2/suexec.log Apache error
2017-04-10 22:19:19 Error 190.162.219.35 AH01215: fopen: Permission denied Apache error
2017-04-10 22:19:19 Error 190.162.219.35 End of script output before headers: hello.cgi

File /var/log/apache2/suexec.log shows:

Code:
[2017-04-10 22:19:00]: uid: (10001/nmella2) gid: (1004/1004) cmd: hello.cgi
[2017-04-10 22:19:12]: uid: (10000/ofimarket) gid: (1004/1004) cmd: cgi_wrapper
[2017-04-10 22:19:19]: uid: (10001/nmella2) gid: (1004/1004) cmd: hello.cgi

I have enable/disable CGI & Perl support at the domain hosting settings.

File is own by user : psacln and have permissions 755 (same permissions for cgi-bin folder).

Don't know what else to try. Appreciate your help !

Thanks !

You might look in your /var/log/messages and see if possibly SELinux is preventing something from functioning. There should be a clue in there.
