run perl -wc script in the cgi's directory. that will catch most problems.

now the issue here is apparently that puw_setup.cgi is calling a script (one way or another). and is printing the string "Cannot execute the script" and "255" (that is, seperately). 255 is the return code. i'd bet on it.

it's printing it before the Content-type header is printing.

check with your host... but maybe the ownership of the script is wrong? or maybe the permissions on the script directory are wrong (they should not be 777 (nor should the script)).

if you aren't sure how to check that, log in to the server, to the cgi directory, and run: "ls -alR" and post the output somewhere, and we can tell ya.
