CGI Frequently Errors.

Server 500 Error

When there is a problem with a CGI script, the server will produce a "Server 500 Error" when the script is accessed via the web. This very ugly page unfortunately tells you very little about the problem with the script.

The most common errors come from problems with permissions. Please see CGI Scripts and Permissions for more details on the correct permission settings.

CGI Permissions

All scripts and directories containing scripts must have a permissions setting of 755 (which is readable, writeable, and executable by the script owner while being readable and executable by the users group and anonymous users).
