[cgiirc-general] Premature end of script headers: index.cgi

[Sven V. <sv...@ve...>]

Hi!

I have a strange problem with CGI:IRC 0.5.3:

,----[ Apache error.log ]-
| [Tue Jun 08 11:35:31 2004] [error] [client 172.21.1.42] Premature end of
| script headers: index.cgi
`----

,----[ Apache cgi.log ]-
| %% [Tue Jun 08 11:35:31 2004] GET /index.cgi HTTP/1.1
| %% 500 /home/lusc/irc.lusc.de/index.cgi

The really strange thing is that I had the problem once a week ago. I
restarted Apache (2.0.49, MPM:Prefork) and the problem was gone. But not
today :(

As you can see from the cgi.log it seems that the script doesn't do any
output if called from Apache. If I run the script on the command line
I'll get the HTML code of the login page.

BTW: The same Apache2 serves some sites with PHP as CGI an this runs
wonderful, no problem, so the problem seems to be not Apache related.

THX & bye

Sven
