Yes...it gives me this..

More information about this error may be available in the server error log. Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

However if I have a small cgi like the following, it works fine when accessed through the browser

#!/usr/bin/perl
print "Content-type:text/html\r\n\r\n";
print '<html>';
print '<head>';
print '<title>Hello Word</title>';
print '</head>';
print '<body>';
print '<h2>Hello World</h2>';
print '</body>';
print '</html>';

I've been in contact with the server administrator and he sent me the log file results.

Mon Jul 15 14:49:20 2013 error client 87.194.165.154 Premature end of script headers: json_mode.cgi

He also suggested that I add the following to the code, but that is already in the code He also told me that it was because the script wasn't outputting valid html headers.

print("Content-type: text/json"); or print("Content-type:application/json");

The client is working fine because I can get the correct response from http://buzzword.org.uk/2013/json-addition.cgi'
