You are correct, of course, when I transcribed into the email I "mis-Typed"
I think, though that the root of my problem is in the file format that things were saved in, the test print was added afterwards to trace the error through (I thought that I was not getting stuff passed into the script, so added a print section, starting with the simple "test" message and then moving on to the parameter values.)
I cured my problem by opening the script in textedit and resaving. After that it ran and I can re-open in BBEdit and modify things without breaking anything.

The difference is in case sensitivity. Notice the word '-type:'

This is one of those "Runs on the command line but not in the browser" questions.
Permissions are set to 755 and a bit commenting out and simple testing shows that the script doesn't even get past:
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT use strict; use CGI ':standard'; use DBI;
print "Content-Type: text/html\n\n"; print "test"
# Everything in the real script commented out
I'm writing in BBEdit 7, doing convert to ASCII before saving, and saving with file creator set to Generic Text File and Line Breaks set
to UNIX and save State set to None.
Other scripts written in the same editor are working OK.
