htsearch under the commandline is working fine. But with Apache 1.3.19 some problems appear:
Internal Server Error with the error.log-entry: "Premature end of script headers: /home/www/web4/htdig-cgi-bin/htsearch"
htdig faq 5.13: "This happens when htsearch dies before putting out a "Content-Type" header." and
"One increasingly common problem is Apache configurations which expect all CGI scripts to be Perl, rather than binary executables or other scripts, so they use "perl-handler" rather than "cgi-handler". "
Ok, I check the FAQ: http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q5.13 and http://www.htdig.org/FAQ.html#q5.23
So I guess I have a problem with my httpd.conf.
These are the regular entries in my httpd.conf:
<IfModule mod_alias.c>
ScriptAlias /cgi-bin/ /usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/
<IfModule mod_perl.c>
ScriptAlias /perl/ "/usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/"
ScriptAlias /cgi-perl/ "/usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin/"
</IfModule>
<Directory "/usr/local/httpd/cgi-bin">
AllowOverride None
Options None
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory>
</IfModule><Location /cgi-bin> AllowOverride None Options None SetHandler cgi-script </Location>
These are my entries to solve the problem:
<Directory /home/www/web4/htdig-cgi-bin/>
SetHandler cgi-script
AllowOverride None
Options +ExecCGI
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
</Directory><VirtualHost www.xy.com> .... ScriptAlias /htdig-cgi/ /home/www/web4/htdig-cgi-bin/ .... </VirtualHost>
At the server the htsearch (without extension) is placed in directory /home/www/web4/htdig-cgi-bin and have the propertiey 755.
The html-file which called the htsearch has the form; <form method="post" name="htdigsearch" action="/htdig-cgi/htsearch"> .... </form>
Facts:
- htsearch is working from commandline
- ScriptAlias is working - the htsearch in /home/www/web4/htdig-cgi-bin is opened with the form
But:
Why I get the internal server error when running the html-form? I have SetHandler cgi-script. What is missing?
I don't know, do I have an error in my httpd.conf or do I have another problem? perhaps I should run the makefile and the ./configure with other parameters, but I think it is running fine under commandline, so I don't have to change this setup.
Thank you for any hint, Miko
