This has me baffled
Okay, I have a 500 internal error. I know that you get lots of questions about these, but i have searched through the forum for hours, looked at the faq, checked permissions etc. I suspect then that the problem may be the path to perl. how do i find out what my perl path is? is there a command i can type in to find it out? Thanks.

Type in the following command at the telnet prompt:

Code:

which perl


OR

Code:

where perl


BTW: You should also refer to your hosting company's online documentation about setting up custom cgi scripts.

thanks, that helped, perl was at "usr/bin/perl" rather than "usr/local/bin/perl"
One more question--- which files will i now need to edit to reflect the path change-- is it just the .cgi files or will i need to edit the .pl files as well?

ALL your .cgi files.
