Something wrong with your Exec directives. Here's something from _ICS,
ICSS Web Programming Guide_ (not available in PDF, only HTML or CD
library):

<excerpt>Error 500: Bad script request - /QSYS.LIB/CGI.LIB/HTMLSRC.FILE
not executable


Cause:Incorrect match of Exec rule.

Solution:See Description of "Forbidden - Path not valid for this server"

I'd consider that likely if *all* of the CGIs failed, but not all of them
do; just the ones that I compile. The precompiled programs off of the CD
that came with the Cool Title redbook work just fine. I try to compile
from the included sources, and the program fails. It doesn't fail with
a Bad Script Request either, it's:

Error 500

CGI Program failed

IBM Internet Connection Secure Server for AS400 4.1


I still greatly suspect that there's one tiny little step that I'm
missing and that the manuals aren't telling me about either.
