Fellow Monks, I'm trying to learn/incorporate Fast::CGI for my website. I tried a simple Hello World, and one of the example scripts, and I'm getting Internal Webserver Errors. My webhost supposedly supports fast CGI, and they run perl 5.6.1. Any ideas on how I can troubleshoot further?
Thanks

#!/usr/local/bin/perl use strict; use CGI::Fast qw(:standard); $COUNTER = 0; while (new CGI::Fast) { print header; print start_html("Fast CGI Rocks"); print h1("Fast CGI Rocks"), "Invocation number ",b($COUNTER++), " PID ",b($$),".", hr; print end_html; } AND #!/usr/local/bin/perl use strict; use CGI::Fast; while (new CGI::Fast) { my $query = new CGI; print $query->header ( ); print "Fast CGI Rocks!\n"; }
bW
