Thanks for contacting us. This is likely to be a bug in mod_fcgid, but that module is not distributed in Red Hat Enterprise Linux; please contact the upstream developers for further help if you are compiling from source.
Thanks for pointing me to mod_fcgid. Since I used RH EL5 rpms, I just assumed RH was responsible. The version of mod_fcgid I have is mod_fcgid-2.2-4.el5 and the httpd rpms are httpd-2.2.3-11.el5_1.3 and httpd-manual-2.2.3-11.el5_1.3. I'm not sure who to direct this bug to now. Any suggestions?
