Description Justin Moore 2001-07-30 19:39:32 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.77 [en] (X11; U; Linux 2.4.3-12smp i686)

Description of problem:
When I try to run even simple CGIs in a non ScriptAlias'ed directory, I get
"Premature end of script headers".  I have ExecCGI specified for the
directory, and an AddHandler for cgi-scripts.  I've included my httpd.conf
file and a simple cgi that won't work in my directory.  This happened when
I upgraded from 7.0 to 7.1.

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure apache to execute ".cgi" files and set the ExecCGI option for
a user directory.
2. Write a simple CGI to return Content-type header and some text.
3. Go to http://hostname.domain/~user/foo.cgi.

Actual Results:  Apache returns a "403: Forbidden", despite all directories
in the path being mode 755 and the script itself being mode 755.

Expected Results:  It should have printed the environment variables.

The info here, #bug 47837, fixes your problem most likely.

Turns out to be MIN_GID-blocked by suEXEC.
