Hi all

I'd like some advice,

I am trying to create a web page, which takes data from a file and builds a graph with GD, these are then saved as pictures, I then use the cgi script to call the pics using dynamically generated HTML page, using a system call to another perl script.

When I do this, I get a 500 internal error and I've traced this down to a permissions problem, as the apache user doesn't have the permissions to write the pic's in the /var/www/html file.

Perhaps you could create a directory, /var/www/cgi-img/, and make sure that the web-server can write in that directory and change your script to write in that directory.

Since you are using RHEL, you should also make sure that SELinux is not interfering with Apache.
