Dear All,
I have a cgi script that uploads two files and then it execute a
program using the system call. This program then uses the uploaded
files as input, and then it generates a file that I am interested in
displaying in the web browser. Unfortunately, the system command does
not work and it makes the cgi to crash.
The log error message is the following:
[Wed Mar 6 20:32:11 2002] [error] [client 155.52.22.78] malformed
header from script. Bad header=Problems reading input file as:
/usr/freeware/apach
e/share/cgi-bin/shannon/entropy2pdb.cgi
However, if I try to run the program in the background as it follows:
system ("$program $dir/$file1 $dir/$file2 \&); then cgi does not crush,
but unfortunately it does not wait to complete the job and I can not
open the results in the browser.
If someone has a solution for this problem, please let me know it.
Cheers
