I have a simple script that I was trying to convert to a executable file (using pp) 
and use in my web browser as a CGI script. The script is as follows (script.pl):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

#!/usr/bin/perl

print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print "Test script";

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


However, when I use 'pp -o script.exp script.pl', and upload it to my server (I chose 
the .exp extension so that it would not download the file as a .exe). I have the 
following configured in Apache (httpd.conf):

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

AddHandler cgi-script .cgi .pl .exp

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


So that it will try to run the 'script.exp' file like a Perl script. However, when I 
try to run this script through my browser, it won't work (gives me a 500 Internal 
Server Error).
I am running Red Hat Linux 7.3, Apache 1.3, and Perl 5.6.1. Any help would be 
appreciated. Thanks.
