Re: [PLUG] Apache2 Server Error

The apache logs show that I have a malformed header.  Specifically, it says:
"malformed header from script. Bad header=Loading page (1/2):

To trouble-shoot this, I have deleted almost the entire program.  In fact, all
it is now is comments!

 
That log message suggests to me that "Loading page (1/2):" is the output written by the program.

Unless you're using some kind of framework, your CGI will probably need "Content-type: text/html" as the very first line of output.  Otherwise, Apache is going to flip out.
