Problem with CGI Script
Hello,

I had to move our company's intranet to a new machine running Centos 5. Whenever cgi scripts now execute I find this error message in the logs:

Mon Oct 05 11:19:39 2009] [error] [client 205.150.86.90] Premature end of script headers: vacation.cgi, referer: [url]https:/{URL}]
Could not find platform independent libraries <prefix>
Could not find platform dependent libraries <exec_prefix>
Consider setting $PYTHONHOME to <prefix>[:<exec_prefix>]
'import site' failed; use -v for traceback

One solution was to make sure the scripts prints headers but the script already does:
Code:
print "Content-type: text/html\n";
print "Location: $WEBROOT/forms/confirm.html\n\n";

Anyone have any idea what needs to be done?

Maybe I have to install some packages?

bb-findhost.cgi

BB-FINDHOST.CGI(1)					      General Commands Manual						BB-FINDHOST.CGI(1)

NAME

       bb-findhost.cgi - Xymon CGI script to find hosts

SYNOPSIS

       bb-findhost.cgi?host=REGEX

DESCRIPTION

       bb-findhost.cgi is invoked as a CGI script via the bb-findhost.sh CGI wrapper.

       bb-findhost.cgi is passed a QUERY_STRING environment variable with the "host=REGEX" parameter. The REGEX is a Posix regular expression (see
       regex(7) ) describing the hostnames to look for.  A trailing wildcard is assumed on all hostnames - e.g. requesting the hostname "www" will
       match any host whose name begins with "www".

       It then produces a single web page, listing all of the hosts that matched any of the hostnames, with links to the Xymon webpages where they
       are located.

       The output page lists hosts in the order they appear in the bb-hosts(5) file.

       A sample web page implementing the search facility is included with bbgen, you access it via the URL /bb/help/bb-findhost.html.

OPTIONS

       --env=FILENAME
	      Loads the environment from FILENAME before executing the CGI.

FILES

       $BBHOME/web/findhost_header
	      HTML header file for the generated web page

       $BBHOME/web/findhost_footer
	      HTML footer file for the generated web page

       $BBHOME/web/findhost_form
	      Query form displayed when bb-findhost.cgi is called with no parameters.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       BBHOSTS
	      bb-findhost.cgi uses the BBHOSTS environment variable to find the bb-hosts file listing all known hosts and their page locations.

       BBHOME Used to locate the template files for the generated web pages.
