Installation
I have followed all the installation instructions, but when I try to run the demo I get:

CGI Error
The specified CGI application misbehaved by not returning a complete set of HTTP headers. The headers it did return are:

I did upload the files using ASCI
I have edited db.cgi to my cgi path
I have edited db_script_path to the cgi bin
I have also changed the perl path although my ISP has said they don’t use a path as such, instead they use a file called “blat.exe” which apparently all their servers recognise!

Any ideas??

Many thanks
Rich

Hello Rich, you mention blat.exe so I'm guessing you are installing to an nt system. Did you remember to use \ instead of / for your directory paths?

Thanks for the reply, Im so keen to get this up and running!

There would be no instances where I would need to use \ instead of / as the perl directory is simply blat.exe

The server is Windows 2000
the url is:
www.titanappupdates/cgi-bin/database/db.cgi

I have checked with my ISP that I can run scripts from sub dirs and also that the .cgi is recognised.

Thanks for any help in advance
Rich

Rich, I'm not going to be much help for you on a Windows server however, you may find some helpful info in the checklist which AstroBoy posted. You can find his post here:
