Hi all, I'm trying to get python to work with cgi for a small intranet site, however even a simply "hello world test isn't working". Here is the test file:
#!/usr/bin/python # -*- coding: UTF-8 -*- # enable debugging import cgitb; cgitb.enable() print "Content-Type: text/plain;charset=utf-8" print print "Hello World!" I've placed this file in both public_html and as a test in public_html/ cgi-bin directories in my local user account (I dont have root access - its a corparate network). The file definitely has read and execute permission (744) as have the assoicated directories. However when I navigate to the file with my browser I get a 500 page?! The code was written fully in linux, so its not some odd windows/linux line termination issue. As a test I tried a perl cgi hello world test, and this worked correctly. The apache server appears to be locked down tightly, as allowOverwrite is None, so I can't do anything in .htaccess files. Any thoughts on how I might debug this or where the problem is -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
