I have been running a LAMP stack for awhile now but have never really explored the server side end of things. What I am trying to do is have a python script on a website run a bash command. This will accomplish a system so someone can create an account for proxy access via a webpage. I am running Ubuntu server edition 8.04.1
Here is my python script (For testing purposes) to do so:
Now I read a bit on the net and from what I gathered I would need to run this as a CGI script. So I placed it in my /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ directory as a .py file.
Then when I go to my site (mysite.com/cgi-bin/program.py)
I get a 500 internal server error. So Once again I looked around and I figured out that I had bad handlers in my site configuration so I tried various different things and nothing seemed to work so I reset my site configuration to as follows:
Here is a section of my error log that pertains to this error:
Any help would be awesome. Thank you.
My guess is that the webserver does not have permissions to run the htpasswd command and store the file in /etc/squid/passwd.
The other possibility, if your code as posted is what you actually used is the fact that the line running the htpasswd is syntactically incorrect ( I assume the end of the line is just missing in your post).
Yeah, sorry, I didn't realize the script was cut off, although it seemed to only be cut off when I posted here (The actual script on the box is fine). I also thought it was a permissions problem but I gave my cgi-bin and the script it's self 777 permissions.
It is the premature end of headers that is causing the 500 Internal error.
Never give cgi-bin 777 permissions and never give anything in cgi-bin 777 permissions.
Try running your python script as the apache user (www-data) and see if it give any errors. I think the problem is in your script, not in the headers it creates. The reason it gives the header error is that the script exits with a non-zero exit code, and I'm pretty sure it's to do with the permissions of the webserver user to write to /etc/squid/passwd.
Alright. Here is the full script that I am running:
I added the Addhandler in there as well. Same 500 Server error. Also I changed the /etc/squid/passwd to 777.
Hi,
I'm new to developing modules for Apache.
