Hii all,
While running Mapserver on our localhost , as :
http://localhost/cgi-bin/mapserv it gives the "500 internal server
error" .
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.
Please contact the server administrator, [EMAIL PROTECTED] and inform
them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done
that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error
log.
We are working on root . On checking the error log the following
messages were retrieved :
[Sun Mar 12 23:27:12 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] (13)Permission
denied: exec of '/var/www/cgi-bin/mapserv' failed
That is a clue. Check your permissions. Make sure Apache is configured
to execute files in that cgi-bin, and that cgi-bin itself has correct
permissions chmod-ed (and chown-ed).
However using the Php/Mapscript API we are able to display the images .
That is being executed in a different directory which probably has the
correct permissions, hence, it works.
