Makefile.PL is not supposed to be executable, also adding #!/usr/bin/perl doesn't make much sense, because the location where perl is installed varies from system to system. You get always told to execute Makefile.PL via perl Makefile.PL this will find the correct path to your perl binary and will use it in the follwing build steps (and add it for example to the top of embpexec.pl) > some text files and .gif files are executable. > This maybe the case but doesn't matter because when the get installed they permission are set correctly by make install > ------ > bug #2 > > i coldn't execute an embperl script with 'embpcgi.pl'. > i got allways only a '<' from the webserver (i used apache). > the script was: > I never have tested CGI mode in Embperl 2.

I guess setting optRawInput in your httpd.conf will solve this problem for you (that's the same for Embperl 1.x, see the FAQ about escaping and unescaping) But you are right 2.0b2 contains really a set of bugs, which as far as I know them, are solved in 2.0b3 which I will release during the next week.
