Hi, guys. I really appreciate the x10Hosting service and now I'd like some help from you, please... :)

I'm trying to install the publishing platform "Movable Type" on my account. I uploaded the /mt/ and its files to the root directory. I chmodded the directory /mt/ (755) and the .cgi files (666), but when I try to install it, the "500 Internal Server Error" returns. How can I fix it? :dunno:

Thanks in advance. =)

Question

I get a 500 Internal Server Error when trying to run the Movable Type CGI files.
Answer

This is a very generic error which occurs when a Perl script fails to execute. The standard things to check are:

* Is the path to Perl correct in the first line of each script?

* Were all of the script files uploaded to your server, and in ASCII mode? (Check for missing files and do not rely on an Auto-Detect feature for upload mode.)

* Have you set the proper permissions (UNIX equivalent of 755; read/write/execute) on the .cgi files?

* Is the version of Perl on your server at least 5.004_4 or higher?

You should also make sure you are running the scripts from a folder that is properly configured to run CGI scripts. If you have created a sub-folder in the cgi-enabled folder, you may need to set its permissions to 755 as well.

Try that. I'm not sure what version of Perl x10 is running...so.. idk
