Has anyone gotten it to work on the RAQ4??? I have installed it ( looks really cool ) but some pages gives me the dreaded Internal Server Error.

I am able to login etc but for example admin_users.pl gives me that error.

I think it has to do with CGIWrap but basically I know nothing about CGI ( am a PHP/ASP type of guy ) so...

1) make sure your files have the proper permissions and are owned the the user of that site.
2) Make sure you install the required perl modules.
3) did you check your error logs? Does cgiwrap have an error log?

Thanks, however the strange thing is all files look the same ( same owner/same permissions etc ).

Some stuff works, which tells me it is actually correct setup - for example I am able to login and view/add announcements - but on some pages - for example admin_users.pl I get the error.

When debugging via cgiwrapDir/cgiwrapd/ it spits out the right output - but when running it without CGIWrap debug I get the error.

So weird...I just hate CGI - to bad there arn't any good free PHP scripts around.

If all the files were uploaded properly and the permissions are correct, then the only remaining problem is that you don't have DBD::MySQL installed. Easiest way to check is get the PerlDiver script at http://www.scriptsolutions.com/programs/free/perldiver/ and run it on your server to see if the module is there.

The PerlDesk forum is pretty helpful as well. :)

DBD::MySQL is on the RaQ4i by default. I have a perldiver setup on a RaQ4i at http://rehoboth.2hostdns.com/perldiver.cgi

Yes I am sure I have it since I am able to login ( which means reading from the db ).

Has anyone else tested PerlDesk on a RAQ?
