[Solved][Help] Bifrost installation

Post by **ayu** » 19 May 2008, 07:57

Has anyone here used Bifrost before? Because I'm trying to install it on my server at the moment using THIS little guide... But all i get when trying to enter the program is Error 500 (which says "This is a super annoying error, made to annoy you ONLY" on mine.. ^^)

Anyway if anyone has any idea, I would be super grateful.....

PS: I suspect that I put it in the wrong cgi-bin directory, where is the default one in Apache? =/

hard to say what causes the error, take a look at /var/log/apache2/error_log....

and for the cgi-bin place best check httpd.conf (or apache2.conf) in /etc/apache2...most likely it's /usr/lib/cgi-bin together with a script-alias directive...

Says nothing about cgi-bin in either of the files..... =/

tried to create a random file in /usr/lib/cgi-bin ....but still getting error 500 when trying to access....

I added "Alias /cgi-bin /usr/lib/cgi-bin" to the apache2.conf

This is what i get in the log now when trying to enter...

[Mon May 19 17:47:04 2008] [error] [client 10.0.0.2] Can't do setuid (cannot exec sperl)
[Mon May 19 17:47:04 2008] [error] [client 10.0.0.2] Premature end of script headers: fw.cgi

Permission error?

I solved it...

apparently I needed "perl-suid" (apt-get install perl-suid)

EDIT: it sucks, I'll build my own -.-
