Script Error

[ogri]

Hi

I am trying to write a Perl script and I am getting the "Premature end of script headers: " error. Normally this is due to an error in the code, but I cannot get rid of it. I have another script that works, and have copied this and uploaded it with another name. The copy fails with the above message but the original works fine.

What have I forgotten to do when uploading?

All the best

Keith

Change from binary transfer mode to ascii transfer mode.

Hi

Thanks. That was the problem. I was using Terrapin ftp software, which uses the registered file extensions for a selection list of which to transfer as binary and which as asci. "cgi" was not registered and had not appeared on the list.

Seems to work now

All the best

Keith
