dear monks, I'm having some trouble with the "500 internal server error". I finished a website that works perfect and has no erros on a win32 platform but when i uploaded it to a web server(at register.com) i got the 500 error. I made all sorts of try's but i simply can't get no code to work on this hosting service(except simple tests like hello world). Coul'd somneone tell if there's something wrong in the code below(i put the 755 permission on the file):
#!usr/bin/perl use CGI; print "Content-type: text/html\n\n"; my $q = new CGI; my $cf = $q->param('cf'); print <<HTML; <html> <head> </head> <body> <h2>$cf,$ct</h2> </body> </html> HTML
