SID-02136: Error when browsing to server

Status:	Asked	TWiki version:	6.0.1	Perl version:	Perl 5.2
Category:	CategoryInstallation	Server OS:	Open Suse 13.2 AWS	Last update:	10 years ago

I think I have installed Perl and Apache correctly however when I browse to 'http://twiki-aws/bin/configure' I get a serve error:

The server encountered an internal error and was unable to complete your request. Error message: End of script output before headers: configure

I have looked through forums but can't seem to fix the problem. I am new and have never worked with Perl before.

Does anyone have any ideas.

Discussion and Answer

This symptom can be caused by a missing Perl module, or a version conflict (Do you really mean Perl 5.2? Currently we are at 5.22). In that case the Perl interpreter writes stuff before TWiki can create the header line for Apache, which then complains like that.

A more detailed error message should be available in your Apache's error log file, which usually is found in /var/log/apache2/. If you need help interpreting the message, please attach the corresponding lines to this topic. Attaching is usually better than copy&paste, because it prevents TWiki from formatting log files.
