aseee has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

Monks

I am trying to upload my index.cgi file, whose code is:

#!/usr/bin/perl -w
print "Content-type: text/html\r\n\r\n";
use Bio::Graphics;
print "Hello there!<br />\nJust testing .<br />\n";
for ($i=0; $i<10; $i++)
{
print $i."<br />";
}

I installed the Bio::Graphics module at my server. when I use Bio::Graphics module in index.cgi then it shows:

Internal Server Error 

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was u
+nable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@fi-pk.com and infor
+m them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have do
+ne that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server error
+ log.

+e an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

with out use Bio::Graphics it works. please guide how to configure Bioperl at Web server side as they enable C compiler for me.

    If you add CGI::Carp module you should see the error in your browser. Like this ;

    #!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use CGI ':standard';
use CGI::Carp 'fatalsToBrowser';

use Bio::Graphics;

print header,start_html;
print 'Hello there!<br/>Just testing.<br/>';
for my $i (0..9){
  print $i.'<br/>';
} 
print end_html;
