Bug #40838 for Inline-Python: apache cgi

Tue Nov 11 15:06:43 2008 juliocbcotta [...] gmail.com - Ticket created

Subject:

apache cgi

off:I am sorry..because I found no place to talk about it too. Someone can tell some forum where I can get some support about perl and Inline Python? well.. I am wondering to know if I can use Inline::Python module under apache.. I made a perl cgi where I call a python function using the Inline::Python.. when I type in the terminal perl file.pl >>file.html I can open the file.html with the right content (html)..it means the python code and the perl code have been interpreted when I run the cgi by myself..but when I try to run it inside of apache (opening the firefox and typing the url) the script does not work. When I try to run a 100% perl script it works ok. I already try to install the python suport in apache..but I got the same problem. I guess apache must have his own perl interpreter..But I am not sure.

The Inline-mailing list seems to be a far more appropriate place to ask such questions. I'd have answered your first question there, too if you hadn't asked in two places and I had a bug report to close. Show quoted text

Should be no problem. Show quoted text

Again, "does not work" is in no way a useful error description. An error message is the least you could provide. Show quoted text

Won't help you in any way. That's a completely different thing. Show quoted text

Not true. If you're using CGI, you're using the same perl interpreter as on the command line.

You always get the answer in your error log. Show quoted text

Probably nothing to do with Inline::Python at all. Most probably missing execution rights for the user, apache is running under, missing shebang line or DOS line endings in your script file. Also possible is suexec checks failing. Or maybe the script just doesn't generate any output. My advice would be to try a minimalistic CGI script and go up from there. Something like: #!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n"; print "Hello world";

Rejecting bug, because it has nothing to do with Inline::Python at all.
