Re: [cobalt-users] Perl 'die' function?

[Humberto Diógenes <adm.humberto@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Remember that 'die' function prints to STDERR, so the string "Content-type: 
text/html\n\n" will be printed to server's error_log.
Better 'print' the error message (with Content-type) and 'exit'.

The reason it is giving you the internal server error is because the script
is printing without declaring the content-type.  It could be any number of
things that cause it--including not finding PERL or whatever.
(...)
Because it doesn't have the content type header like the before mentioned
"Content-type: text/html\n\n" the web server chokes on it.
(...)
On the die command, have it print the "Content-type: text/html\n\n"
before the error screen and it will print the error in the web browser.
