texte = I now have it working perfectly thanks to WSC remote help. - First issue was that for some wacky reason I had an empty webdna.ini file -- zero content. Not sure, but somehow I did it. - Once replaced with current, valid webdna.ini file, it was discovered that the Pref "UnixUser" in webdna.ini was set to "www-data" - On Debian derivatives, "www-data" is the correct user, however since I am on CentOS, a RedHat derivitive, the user needs to be "apache" - Changed user to apache, restarted httpd, and it worked. Not sure how WSC will address, though I assume at the very least the W7 install document will be updated to reflect this minor change needed for debian derivatives. I'm sure WSC will respond shortly. Thanks again for the help, Chris. -Dan Strong http://www.DanStrong.com On 9/13/2013 8:47 AM, Dan Strong wrote: > Did as you've instructed and got same error -- Webpage shows 500 > Internal Server Error, and apache error log shows > > [Mon Sep 09 20:29:31 2013] [notice] mod_fcgid: call > /var/www/html/danTest/index.html with wrapper > /var/www/html/WebDNA/WebDNA.fcgi > [Mon Sep 09 20:29:31 2013] [warn] mod_fcgid: Read data error, fastcgi > server has close connection > [Mon Sep 09 20:29:31 2013] [error] [client 192.168.1.129] Premature > end of script headers: index.html > > > About ready to throw in the towel on this one.
