500 Internal Server cgi – perl

I am not much of a developer and when I had a problem with Actinic I had to start fault finding from the ground up.
Actinic puts a number of Perl and CGI scripts in the cgi-bin dir. To rule out Actinic the first thing I tried was a simple Perl test script:
#!/usr/bin/perl print "Content-type: text/plain\n\n"; print "testing...\n";
Never use 123-reg.co.uk
Jul 8th
I am not one to rant on about other companies but I find myself so shocked at the support from 123-reg that I had no choice but to share my experience with the rest of you.
The Issue:
I’ve been with 123-reg.co.uk since 2002 when I bought my first domain name, since then I have accrued 50+ domains and a couple of hosting packages. Last year I started to use paypal to pay for new domains and renewals. I set a number of domains via the 123-reg control panel to cancel when the renewal date was up (back in Feb), on the renewal date one of my domains renewed itself and I was charged. I sent in a ticket to 123-reg support and was advised even though I had cancelled the domain within there control panel paypal had automatically renewed the domain on behalf of 123-reg. I was advised by 123-reg support that if I wanted my money back I had to raise a dispute with paypal, which I did. Unfortunately paypal did to not honour the dispute and I had no choice but to loose out on the domain being renewed. Oh well I lost a couple of quid no big deal, or so I thought……………………………
