I am getting a 500 error.
What is that?
A 500 error on a
script usually means there is a syntax error.
There are two good ways to debug a script. You
can first check your error log located in the
stats section of the cpanel. The second way is
to log into your shell and move to the directory
the script is in. When in the proper directory
type ./filename.cgi
This will tell you
what and where the error is.

Where
do I place CGI scripts?
CGI scripts can run anywhere on
your account, not just in the cgi-bin directory.

site.

Where can I
find CGI scripts?
We provide "canned"
scripts in the control panel you can use. Also,
you are free to install your own scripts. You
can find some at http://cgi-resources.com/ or at
http://www.hotscripts.com/

I need a certain PERL
module installed. Can this be
done?
In most cases this can be
done. However, we will only install a module
available from CPAN. To request this you
should contact support@jrnhosting.com.
Note there may be charges for this.
