Generic CGI Error

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

I used to be using a Windows 2000 server to run my perl cgi apps but recently switched to Windows 2003. Since then any errors I have in my script will come up in the browser as : CGI Error The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. Before switching I used to get a perl error stating the line(s) that were causing the problems. I'm running the same version of perl (5.8.1). Could someone tell me how I can (preferably) get the errors to print to the browser as before OR which log file (if any) to check for errors? I'd really appreciate any help on this. AF

Error log location depends on your web server. Is this IIS or Apache?	[reply]
