Thanks Tobias, I found the problem about 10 min before I got your mail. It was SpeedyCGI that was the problem, for some reason it did not seem to install properly on Mandrake.
For future reference (And perhaps as an update to the install procedure on the site) do : perl -MCPAN -e shell install CGI::SpeedyCGI This seemed to fix my problem 100%. As before I did this I tried "whereis speedy" and go no "not found" ... after installing via CPAN it was found (Most likely something stupid I did when installing from the binary) -- however the zsh shell did not report an invalid parser which did not help my debugging. ---- One quick question though, I have some really strange results coming from one or two of my web servers while using the http probe. I get a red or a blue line indicating that only some of the requests retuned un-successful responses. Is there any way of turning on logging of some kind to see why these requests failed ? I know I could just run tcpdump or something like that .. but I never know when the error appears so I would have quite a bit of data.
