type="file" name="photo"/><br><br> Your Email Address: <input
type="text" name="email_address"/><br><br> <input type="submit"
name="Submit" value="Submit Form"/> </form> </body> </html>


i am getting an error in my log : [Tue May 29 17:47:52 2007] [error]
[client ::1] malformed header from script. Bad
header=intro_modules.pdf: file_path.pl, referer: http://localhost/cgi-perl/load.html [Tue May 29 17:47:52 2007] [warn]
/cgi-perl/file_path.pl did not send an HTTP header


where am i going wrong.

help will be of great relief to me. Thanks & regards, Alma


Your problem is web-server configuration. It thinks that upload.html is a perl script an tries to execute it with perl interpreter.

As I told before, you should post us your apache configs or we can't tell you what is wrong in you web-server configuration.

P.S. Do not forget to reply to list as well.
