csh cgi script gives malformed header
I am using apache 2.0.47 on HP-UX 11.0.
I am trying to run a simple csh unix script as a cgi in the ScriptAlias directory /apache2.0.47/cgi-bin When it runs I get this in the error_log: [Wed Nov 05 11:58:06 2003] [error] malformed header from script. Bad header html>: simple.csh The script is very simple and contains: #!/bin/csh echo "Content-type: text/html" echo echo "<html><body>" echo "<BLOCKQUOTE><PRE>" env echo "</PRE></BLOCKQUOTE>" echo "</body></html>" File permissions etc have all been checked. Change the first line to #!/bin/sh and magic it works! Perl scripts work fine too. Curious to know why mod_cgi is treating csh differently? |

Which linux are you using? On YellowDog 3.0 and RedHat 7.3 and 9 /bin/csh is a symlink to /bin/tcsh. - --keith - -- kkeller-usenet@wombat.san-francisco.ca.us (try just my userid to email me) AOLSFAQ=http://wombat.san-francisco.ca.us/cgi-bin/fom -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.3 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQE/qc6ghVcNCxZ5ID8RArQiAKCWAW4ALcQExJ7zm3/aaphdKmF6kgCglG0z ycaRRGX7Py8UbaFIAm7JCr4= =BFdN -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- |

I guess I was going by the one from 'which csh' (first in my PATH). In Linux: /usr/bin/csh -> ../../bin/tcsh and /bin/csh -> tcsh In Solaris: both /usr/bin/csh and /bin/csh are same binary (or hard link). But since the original posted CGI works on both of those, I wonder if the original poster composed that script in Windows and transferred it as binary (instead of as ascii text). For example if the script was edited from /bin/csh to /bin/sh using pico, that would have automatically removed any troublesome DOS carriage returns. -- David Efflandt - All spam ignored http://www.de-srv.com/ |
