|

Hi All,
When installing with apt-get install backuppc this wonderfull program onto
a Debian Sarge box, everything goes great.
After installing and trying to login into backuppc I get this error in my
apache-logs after entering my username and password:
Premature end of script headers: index.cgi
A problem with CGI you should say. The problem is that this is working
fine. The problem is that apache wants to run the index.cgi as user
"www-data" and backuppc want to have it runned by "backuppc"
What is the solution for this problem ? I have googled for 3 hours with a
severla of options and also on Gmane, but no direct solution.
Here is some commandline-output when running the scipt as www-data and
backuppc:

<p>This script needs to run as the user specified in $Conf{BackupPCUser},
which is set to backuppc.
<p>
This is an installation problem. If you are using mod_perl then
it appears that Apache is not running as user backuppc.
If you are not using mod_perl, then most like setuid is not working
properly on BackupPC_Admin. Check the permissions on
/usr/share/backuppc/cgi-bin/BackupPC_Admin and look at the documentation.

I hope someone is willing to help me ! As faras I know all the right
packages are installed, and when Debian needs them and doesn't have them
it will automaticly install it. So that should not be the problem.
I think it's a user-thing.
