I disagree with you. The fellow is using an Apache web server on
a Mandrake 6.0 server.
Because packages install differently on different Linux distros,
and different Unix systems, a lot of problems are related to the
type and location of libraries, and other distribution-specific
things.
It is entirely possible his cgi-script problem ONLY arises in
Mandrake. And even if not, the answer to his problem may not
be correct or applicable to him if answered by an AIX or HPUX
sysadm.
Mandrake is a distribution employing many different componets;
many of them tweaked by RedHat and Mandrake to specific
configuration and purposes. If an individual has ANY problems
when using Mandrake, then THIS is the apporpiate venue to ask
questions.
More specifically, he has a problem with a <DOCTYPE...> header.
This could well be Mandrake specific. There is an HTML validation
service at http://validator.w3.org/ which may be able to answer
his problem. It does have extensive documentation and help on
the <DOCTYPE...> tags. Basically I think that either his tag
is wrong, or it mentions an HTML level which his Apache server
does not understand. Running the web page with cgi script past
the validator should yield the answer.
