Hi!
I´m trying to install wikiCalc This programm is written in perl and doesn´t need any DB. I installed the archive in cgi-bin as it said in the howto, and called the setup file via my browser. The whole configuration is supposed to be done on line. when I run the setup file, I get messages like or I checked the permissions and everything seems all right:
in httpd.conf user and group are apache;
in cgi-bin (inclusive cgi-bin) all files and directories have apache as owner and group;
everything is set up with chmod 755;
and even when I do chmod -R 777 I still get the same error messages.
in htppd.conf I have the default configuration:
I don´t understand what is wrong. This wikiCalc doesn´ t need anything: you just have to extract the files and run the set-up through you browser.

I tried it on another server that seems to have the exact same configuration, and it worked! I compared permissions, httpd.conf, everything seems to be the same! I can´ t find the difference, but it must have one!
Any advice?
P.S. and of course I have perl installed

I looked in access_log but what I found doesn´t help me much (111.111.11.11 is my IP):
does anyone understand where the problem is? I´m stuck with this problem since 3 days and it´s driving me nuts!

I had a very problem like that as well, look in the apache logs to see what the error is, mine was with a blog, when I looked in the log I found permission denied, I looked on the online site and compared the directorys there, after all that my problem was the dir that it was writing to had to be set to chmod 777, then it worked,
The other server you tried may have been a windows machine,

I have made a but it didn't change anything. both servers are linux machines, both are fedora.
