The problem was the difference in the Apache CGI modules.  If you use prefork MPM ( Multi Processing Modul ) you need to use mod_cgi.  If you use worker MPM you need to use mod_cgid.  The reverse combinations do not work.  One will actually give you an error and not start the daemon, the other combination, which I had, will start the server and give no indication whatsoever about any problem, other than the 503 Service Unavailable code when trying to execute CGI programs. mjb. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscribe@httpd.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-help@httpd.apache.org
