RE: cgi issue -- WEB400

The major differences between the iSeries version of Apache and the open
source version are the options available for basic authentication and
SSL set up (this is due to not using OpenSSL more than anything else).
IBM did an excellent job porting the server. There are also some third
party modules that don't have iSeries equivalents but if they are using
the APR (I may have the name wrong) interface, you should be able to
port them without much effort (PASE may be required. PHP and MySQL were
ported this way).

The error you're getting is because the HTTP headers are not being set.
At a minimum, they need to be: content-type: text/html followed by a
blank line. The output would look like this:

content-type: text/html

<html>
<body>Hello World</body>
</html>

I don't use this toolkit but does "\n" actually get translated to
x'0D25' (EBCDIC equivalent)?

Subject: [WEB400] cgi issue

I think I have the directives issue taken care of, I thought there was
some 
major differences between the apache for linux directives and the
iseries 
but apparently not.

I have tried to compile a very simple program using Bob Cozzi's cgilib
and I 
am getting some errors in the job log.

Here is the program as it is currently written:

 H BNDDIR('CGILIB')                                                     
  /INCLUDE XTOOLS/QCPYSRC,CGILIB                                        
 DFNAME            S             10A                                    
 DSZHEADER         C                   'Content-type: text/html\n\n'    
 DSZHTML           S           1000A   VARYING                          
 DNCOUNT           S             10I 0                                  
 C                   callp     CGIINIT()                                
 C                   EVAL      SZHTML =
'<HTML><HEAD><TITLE></TITLE></HEAD>'
 C                   EVAL      SZHTML = '<BODY>HELLO WORLD!</BODY> +    
 C                             </HTML>'                                 
 C                   EVAL      NCOUNT = cgiStdout(SZHEADER)             
 C                   EVAL      NCOUNT = cgiStdout(SZHTML)               
 C                   EVAL      *INLR = *ON                              
 C                   RETURN 

I get an internal server error and here is the output from the error
Log:

ZSRV_MSG0107: Premature   end of script headers: File name is
CGITEST.PGM
CGI PROGRAM /QSYS.LIB/QCGISRC.LIB/CGITEST.PGM RETURNED EXCEPTION ID
MCH3401 
SEE JOBLOG FOR JOB 017694/QTMHHTTP  /APACHEDFT

When I try to display the job log with DSPJOBLOG it tells me it can't 
display the log since the job has ended.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
