Working on a Calendar Software

[jdayer]

Hi:

I took over the administration of a domain that you are hosting a couple of months ago. I am trying to get an organizational calendar running and I am having problems. The calendar is a piece of software from:
http://www.brownbearsoftware.com/calcium/WhatIsIt.html
I have not been able to get the demo version to load and run properly.

Is it possible for you to take a look at the http://www.brownbearsoftware.com/cal...tallBasic.html
and give me any tips you may have for getting this to run on your system?

My experience is mostly windows/vb and Java scripting. I have never worked with Linux or Perl CGI before and I am having problems trouble shooting the system.

Thanks

Hi:

The error I am receiving is a 500, internal server error. The Error log reports:

[2002-11-13 23:17:43]: error: file has no execute permission: (/home/*****/public_html/cgi-bin/Calcium37.pl)

Also:

[Wed Nov 13 23:34:04 2002] [error] [client **.***.***.**] Premature end of script headers: /home/*****/public_html/cgi-bin/Calcium37.pl

If anyone has any ideas I would appreciate some help.

Thanks

It looks like a permissions problem. Try setting the permissions of the file to exactly that indicated in the setup instructions. Also the permissions on the directory the file is in. Since we run suEXEC on our servers for security permissions can't be set to 777 on any file or it will not run. But it could be anything or any file in the set of scripts causing this. It could be a text file tucked away in another directory that the script uses that is throwing the whole thing off.

You could also try running the script from the command line to see where the error is at.

Thanks:

I had the file permissions set to 777. When I changed permissions to 755 it began to work.

Great Service.

It isn't supposed to be that easy
