Hi,<br />
<br />
I am trying to get apache to serve .exe files by executing them as CGI scripts. &nbsp;My program seems fine, but I receive internal server error when viewing the page in a browser:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://localhost/index.exe" rel="ugc">http://localhost/index.exe</a><br />
Internal Server Error<br />
The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.<br />
<br />
Here is from the log file:<br />
[Thu Jun 01 08:24:03 2006] [error] [client 127.0.0.1] malformed header from script. Bad header=&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C/: index.exe<br />
<br />
If I run my program from command window, it looks like this(this is just the first few lines):<br />
&lt;!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC &quot;-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN&quot;<br />
<br />
&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &quot;<a href="http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd" rel="ugc">http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd</a>&quot;&gt;<br />
<br />
&lt;HTML&gt;<br />
<br />
&lt;HEAD&gt;<br />
<br />
&lt;META HTTP-EQUIV=&quot;Content-Type&quot; CONTENT=&quot;text/html; charset=iso-8859-1&quot;&gt;<br />
<br />
<br />
How do I configure apache to serve the header information correctly? &nbsp;I suppose I could try and just put it directly into my program but is there another way?
