In your Apache error_log, it will give you the nature of the server error which will help you to troubleshoot whether it's a permissions problem, browser problem, or some other issue.
In your script, make sure you have the "Content-type" statement if you plan to output to a browser. This is not a DBI issue per se, so if you'd like to continue off-line, feel free to contact me directly. -----Original Message----- From: Reidy, Ron [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 12:08 PM To: Kevin Moore; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: Apache, DBI, Oracle Isn't server error a permissions problem? http://webdevelopment.developersnetwork.com/Articles.asp?Article=132 ----------------- Ron Reidy Senior DBA Array BioPharma, Inc. 303.386.1480 -----Original Message----- From: Kevin Moore [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2004 1:01 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Apache, DBI, Oracle Experts, Does anyone have a step by step procedure for configuring apache, mod_perl, and DBI for accessing an oracle database they'd be willing to share? I've got Oracle and a simple perl script using dbi to extract data from a database running from the command line but am receiving "server Error" when running the same script from the browser so I know the DBI modules are communicating with the database. I'm not an expert in this area and am just not finding anything comprehensive enough to make this work through Apache. The database and webserver are on different linux servers. Thanks. Kevin
