Bugzilla and CGI

[davidkaye]

I am trying to set up Bugzilla on Fedora Core 2. I have passed the checksetup.pl checks, but I am getting an "Internal Server Error" when I try to execute a .cgi file. I believe that the problem may lie in the httpd.conf. If you have succeeded in setting up Bugzilla, would you please be so kind as to post your httpd.conf file?

Thank you,

David

hmmmm, are you sure it's not just file permissions? (chmod 755 bugzilla.cgi)

To find out, open a shell to or where the webserver is, then su to root and run something like this

tail -f /etc/httpd/logs/error_log

And start hitting the bugzilla script again to see what it says.


If its not permissions, where does it think perl is? (it should want to access it at /usr/bin/perl to be used with FC2)

Are you installing bugzilla somewhere under /var/www? If not, suexec will cause you grief.

I figured out the problem. It was looking for perl in the wrong location. Thanks for the help.
